Cabaret Muse Me 7th MARCH 2010
Cabaret Muse Me, invites you Skating through Dimensions ……..on the 7th of March 2010, 12.30-13.30pm (NY) 19.30 - 20.30 pm(Istanbul)
THE STORY
Cabaret Muse Me recounts a story of love and sharing above the clouds, and psychic connectivity beyond time and space, looking for fresher ways of being : SHARING
The story follows a crash, a time of crises, and a rexamining of notions - to see that we are all one - and as one, to come out from the dark and act - for each one of us ( muse me ) affects / inspires another in micro activity to change macro destiny …
Written in the fall of 2008, cabaret muse me examines crises as personal and communal, economical and ecological, and it’s onset as as an advocation of examining new measures / methods of being ..
Sharing of food becomes the main ingredient, as the onset of the recession in Europe and the US in the fall of 2008, reminded that there was more to interaction then expression alone, and the performance is scheduled for a lunch time performance in the US in order to be able to invite homeless / people in need of food to the performance,
as well as the integration of art in daily life ( ART FOR LUNCH ! )
Internet was chosen as a means of production, enabling collaboration with people all over the world, without utilizing aeroplanes, saving the skies, the eco-system, and producing a large performance in times of recession.
PRODUCTION - ” CABARET MUSE ME - HIDING IN THE DARK / episode 2 ”
Cabaret Muse Me is a simulcast contempo cabaret, broadcast thru the web and created and performed in 3 spaces, in Istanbul & New York & WWW. “Hiding in the Dark” is the second of 7 episodes, each performed consecutively, in the end to be performed as a single matinee in 2010/2011.
A dance takes place in an embryonic loci, at CPR, Center for Performance Research, from where it is broadcast via internet to SPLATTERPOOL in NY and DEPO in IST, interacting with visuals and music on the way. A dinner is served, and the audience are the performers ..
Video and Photography of the process of the performances will be documented for a future exhibition.
THE PERFORMANCE / LAYERS
The audiences interact by sharing the same food, and visions and music ..
Two characters counteract, a 1930’s cabaret charater, versus a surreal contemporary connectivity character.
Cabaret Muse Me tackles subjects of space & time, and the reordering of notions of private/public
with a call for transparency and immediacy .. as veils begin to rise …
When technology begins to mirror our psyche’s …
An increased connectivity mirroring psychic connectivity in the public realm, is creating a dichotomy of views
- the parallel existances of “magic” and “transparency”.
CABARET muse me ADVOCATES a peaceful acceptance of information technology as a world of sharing without veils, and the parallel existance of magic and transparency …. inviting you to come and dine, share food, music, visions and song ..

F.ir.e.i.n.c.a.i.r.o text continues …

Take forth these prints as your own, where within each is encapsulated a wind of inspiration, the shape and order to come, yours …
In November 2009 Winds of Istanbul, the North Sea and the Hudson blew though my window, as a butterfly flapped it’s wings ın the East Village and I found myself in Istanbul again.
and here I Subtract the artist :
Asking - ‘ Who is it that creates .. the inspiration, the order-er,or the perceiver ?’
note : like rorshach tests, these prints are ingredients blown and encapsulated of winds, each to u to interpret, accompanied simply by the smell of a wind and a melody.
Nb: daemons = spirits or guardian deities transferring knowledge of human things to gods and divine truths to humans.
See : Plato’s Symposium, as Diotema speaks of the Definition of Love :
“What then is Love?” I asked; “Is he mortal?” “No.” “What then?” “Asin the former instance, he is neither mortal nor immortal, but ina mean between the two.” “What is he, Diotima?” “He is a great spirit(daimon), and like all spirits he is intermediate between the divineand the mortal.” “And what,” I said, “is his power?” “He interprets,”she replied, “between gods and men, conveying and taking across tothe gods the prayers and sacrifices of men, and to men the commandsand replies of the gods; he is the mediator who spans the chasm whichdivides them, Continue reading ‘Winds / Wings ………… An Exploration !’
