i'll meet you in west germany
october 1983
i know that freedom was a lie
i know your husband was a spy
you said that words are impotent
but they can help us pay the rent

i knew for sure there was nothing left
except the vodka on your breath

we meet in strasbourg!
in strasbourg!
dann sind wir helden!
we meet in strasbourg!


Rakes, "Strasbourg"

watschen

The two puppets of WATSCHENDISKURS are involved in a discussion about language theory. Like in many a real life discussion they pick their phrases randomly from a pool of more or less witty statements on the topic of language including Wittgenstein-Quotes and Russian weather proverbs. From time to time this discussion gets pretty emotional, and at a point where words no longer seem to be the right tool of convincing the other one, the frog and the cat lose their temper. A slap in the face stops the opponent and gives way for another intellectual excursus about the different layers of speech.

Shut up and listen!

Two Puppets, controlled by microcontrolers, connected to a Director-program that randomly gives them phrases to speak and decides when one of them stops the other one by physical servo force.
