Nakagin Series Vol.2
"We are happy to invite you to a journey with the destination of an old mine in Herne. Inside Moritz Riesbeck's installation “Necrosis - Insomnia” we will travel into the story of the demolished Nakagin Capsule Tower, from which the artist has rebuilt one living capsule. This replica is staging performances by Dornen and lomi, Fractal Void, Vivian Koch and Ludwig Wandinger. Part of the journey is a bus-tour, which is included in the ticket, transferring us from Cologne over Düsseldorf to Herne and back. The Bus-Tour features an audio-drama about the Nakagin Capsule Tower as well as a meditative listening session of Vivian Kochs healing sound baths.
This event is part of the Nakagin Series, a collaboration between artist Moritz Riesenbeck, About Repetition, and BRUTALISM."
The bustour of "Nakagin Series Vol.2" to the old mine "Unser Fritz 2/3” in Herne included the audioplay “Nakagin Integration Co Ltd. Series Vol.1” by methlife. It is a semi-fictional travelog of the artists journey to Tokyo which was conceived during the artists stay inside capsule nr.901 of nakagin capsule tower in 2016. I love the last chapter telling about the return flight over Siberia, flying through thick clouds during winter, while oil flames put everything into a red glow. The bus tour was planed to play this scene, while entering Ruhr-Area in the dark, seeing all the illuminated old mining towers popping out of the extensive landscape. The tour ends inside the black coop of and old mine where the participants face a red illuminated replica of a living capsule of the demolished Nakagin Capsule Tower the main protagonist of the audioplay. Referring to the topics of metabolism, the towers architecture flux, this capsule seems to be reborn on site, hosting a series of audio performances by Dornen & Lomi, Fractal Void, Vivian Koch and Ludwig Wandinger.
