Matkot - Berlin/2009

Here is some info on the project I am currently working on here in Berlin. It is a physical/theatrical performance by choreographer Nir De Volff. If you are around the area, dont miss it...

NIR DE VOLFF / TOTAL BRUTAL
MATKOT


Premiere: November 28th 2009, 8.30pm
Further Performances: November 29th/30th and December, 4th/5th/6th 2009, 8.30pm
Dock 11, Kastanienallee 79, 10435 Berlin
Tickets at ticket@dock11-berlin.de or 030 448 12 22

Are you longing for the beach of your dreams? Enjoying the sun on your body, the sound of the waves going deeper and deeper into your brain, connecting with harmony and nature? Pull yourself together. Come to us, come to the MATKOT-beach. Nir De Volff / TOTAL BRUTAL will guarantee you crying babies, barking dogs and hundreds of beachball players and nacked bodies, coming closer and closer. We provide a daily supply of fresh garbage and the air is filled with the sweet sound of tractors building another luxury hotel just in walking distance.
MATKOT, the Hebrew word for beach ball, explores the social complexity of a day at the beach and our inconsistent behavior as visitors and users of nature. The new dance piece by Nir De Volff / TOTAL BRUTAL is about the need to relax, the moment when a dream falls apart and the process of collecting bits and pieces struggling to construct a new image.

Idea & Concept: Nir De Volff - A collaboration by Johanna Chemnitz, Hyoung-Min Kim and Nir De Volff - Guest: Ido Portal - Artistic Counselling: Tatiana Saphir - Music: jayrope - Stage: Judith Philipp - Costumes: Pieter Bax - Lights: Benjamin Schälike - Graphic Design: Dorit Bialer - Photos: Bernhard Musil - Production & PR: ehrliche arbeit – freelance office for culture - Choreographic Assistant: Zuhal Toptas - Stage Assistant: Max Johns - Costume Assistant: Veronika Weinhold

Funded by the City of Berlin. Supported by and produced at DOCK 11. Thanks to Hakvutza Jaffo, Tel Aviv Dance Studios.



I am currently pulling off 8-12 hours of physical activity a day, (trying to squeeze out my own training besides working on the project) so sorry for the lack of activity on the blog. I know from the emails I recieved many of you are interested to find out some more details about my experiences here in Berlin, and soon I will share some insights on the amazing experience of creating Matkot. Stay tuned, to be continued...

Ido.

Sounds amazing! But make sure you update when it is convenient to YOU. Personally I can wait until the end and you actually have room to breathe, 8-12 hours is nuts! I have done the 12+ hour days drill and I barely had enough time to eat, let alone update a blog in any kind of detail! And at the end of the day I just slept as much as I could =)

Ido, the comment above me is spam, you probably need to turn on some spam protection here.

Otherwise i find Matkot will be a blast :)
Looking much forward to our premiere in two days. J

he response is yes. The French fashion christian louboutin shoes house has confirmed the Brit model because the face of that Boy Chanel handbag collection. [Karl Lagerfeld] has a crush during this unique, charismatic gal, who is both a model and musician, in a photo shoot a while ago, Chanel told WWD. This previously unforeseen alliance finally became self-evident. Alice Dellal represents an ideal incarnation of the which is christian louboutin fake shoes unique around the Boy Chanel handbag collection, which strives [to be] definately not conformist notions of femininity.
Yep, Dellal is not christian louboutin replica shoes really conventional. As well as her trademark punk-rock uniform, the petite 24-year-old is a drummer in the band Thrush Metal and will fake ysl shoes turn out to be found larking around the streets based in london with Pixie Geldof. Shes far from blonde bombshell Blake Lively, whos the prevailing face of Chanels Mademoiselle range, but Lagerfeld is recognized for his eclectic taste, previously casting ysl shoes Lily Allen for your Cocoon bag range in '09. Furthermore, Alice's androgyny will work brilliantly together with the 'Boy' collection. How refreshing.

I stumbled upon your post on Matkot-Berlin 2009, and I'm really enjoying the insights you've shared. The way you've discussed marketing strategies is quite intriguing. Speaking of marketing, I've been on the lookout for some Marketing Dissertation Help.. Your expertise in this area is evident, and I was wondering if you could recommend any reliable sources or services that specialize in assisting with marketing dissertations. Any guidance you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
