What’s the connection between a monkey mask, a musical saw and skating? What do Audre Lorde and John Cage have in common? Who is relatively young, has a big heart, and bones like a bird? And how do you organise your books? Not by size, do you? This is Carlos Franke’s very personal attempt to organise not just books, but life itself.
Carlos Franke creates performances and performs on the musical saw, designs light, sound and special effects, invents, writes and practices, represents and is present. Having abandoned his studies in physics, philosophy and musicology, his current focus is on human and non-human interactions in theatre, dance and elsewhere. He lives in Gießen and is about to graduate in Applied Theatre Studies with the performance “One-one-solo”. According to doctors, he is “relatively young” (2021) and has a big heart.
