Working Title Platform #6 - A new constitution for democratic systems - that is the remarkable starting point of ‘Some use for your broken clay pots’, a tripartite project by Christophe Meierhans. A theatrical performance, a book and a film will be based on a legal text that prescribes all the institutions, organs, laws and procedures necessary for the establishment of a realistic and functional democratic regime.

Working Title Platform #6 - 75 Watt is an inter disciplinary project between visual art/design and dance, focussing on the human body on the assembly line. The project seeks to explore the nature of mass-manufacturing products on various scales; from the geo- political context of hyper-fragmented labour to the bio-political condition of the human body on the assembly line.

Combining words, music and movement, this melancholic and turbulent solo by the young Croatian dancer, choreographer and video director Matija Ferlin, cultivates the ambiguity of signs and plays on the oppositions between body and mind, the individual and history. Between the ghosts of the past and promises of the future, a young artist is seeking to be today. A revelation!

A plea for imagination at the heart of Europe, where dreams are coming under increasing pressure. Fifty years after Martin Luther King’s famous speech in Washington (1963), the Belgian-Nigerian novelist Chika Unigwe and the Brussels political scientist and sociologist Philippe Van Parijs tell us in full their dreams for tomorrow’s world.

PERFORMATIK2013 - Summer 2012. Berlinde de Bruyckere presents a selection of her sculptures and drawings in Istanbul. Vincent Dunoyer ‘lends’ his body for a performance that lasts two months. Now, the dancer has invited the artist to present an exhibition-performance in a theatre. A new meeting of ‘live’ art and ‘visual’ art, conceived for the Kaaistudio’s in rue Notre-Dame-du-Sommeil.

PERFORMATIK2013 - Conversations with performing artists and curators in a relaxed atmosphere. Tonight with Alexander-Maximilian Giesche, Lea Letzel, Meggy Rustamova, Zhana Ivanova & Sarah van Lamsweerde. Moderator: Pieter T’Jonck.

PERFORMATIK2013 - In this dance performance the Austrian choreographer and dancer Philipp Gehmacher starts out from his own, ‘stuttering’, movement idiom as a way of examining the strengths and weaknesses of language together with the performer Jack Hauser. The utopian notion of language as an instrument for social cohesion versus the autonomy of language in the practice of art. What does language do to us, and what do we share when we speak the same language?

PERFORMATIK2013 - Choreographer Trajal Harrell and sculptor Sarah Sze experiment together, he with movement and she with materials. This tension between performers, materials and space is the essence of The Untitled Still Life Collection. The stage setting is not a 'backdrop' for the dance, but the sculptural and choreographic elements interact and transform one another.

PERFORMATIK2013 - Performance and dance gradually enter museums for contemporary art and they are gaining an increasingly important space within them. Pieter T'jonck discusses the pros and cons of this evolution with Jenny Schlenzka (Moma PS1, New York), Ann Demeester (De Appel, Amsterdam) and Catherine Wood (Tate Modern, London).

In Concerto, Ivo Dimchev offers us a late-night performance: an inimitable voice improvisation in the form of a concert. Dimchev staged Concerto
for the first time at the Balkan Dance Platform festival in Athens in
2007. Since then he has shared the stage with various musicians in
theatres and clubs across Europe. Now he's performing with Emilian Gatsov.

Som Faves is an intimate and tragicomic portrait of the performer Ivo Dimchev. It is both hilarious and profound. Som Faves was selected for the Theatre Festival in 2010 and Time Out New York voted it one of the stage highlights of 2011.
