In their project Platzhalter, Lasse Schlegel and David Schwarzfeld look from the perspective of designers at the numerous advertising spaces in our cities. By renting such spaces, they want to give agency to new ideas for the collaborative reclaiming of public places and accompany this process in the long term with workshops and other forms of exchange. In the framework of the Spot on Economies transdisciplinarily research residencies, seven groups were invited to share and develop their ideas, questions, and proposals with other scholars, artists, practitioners, and activists.

Our residency in PACT was the second rehearsal period for the production ›What, Where, When are we?!‹ a work that sets out to explore the question of whether identity is rooted in one space and time. It is a rhythmical approach to transnational and multidimensional embodied experiences. Four performers on stage, live drums, and radio stations create sound layers that interweave with body memories.

»After ›KIRKPINAR‹ & ›karadeniz‹, my new research on queer androgynous belly dancers called ›köçek‹ will conclude in a trilogy about the trans-individualist self beyond identity politics. Death, mourning and its affects continue my motivation in inviting witnesses to a shared experience of a temporary community in the black box.«

Continuing the investigation and convening different and varied sources of archives of iconographies of black women, Venus articulates the extensive selection of gestures present in the images and representations of black women of different origins and times, as well as Val Souza's own self-portrait, that she has been collecting in what she has been calling the Venus archive about 5,000 thousand images, 2,000 self-portraits that can be a source of analysis about possible similarities in the way black women are portrayed and represented.

»›The Body. The Voice.‹ is a series performance work that studies the development of a human body. The work focuses on the body's relationship with familiar and unfamiliar spaces. The work is divided into 3 scenes using video, live performance and installation. These scenes take us through to lived experiences and tragic events that occurred/occurring across the world, how the body finds itself to adopt, evolve and immense itself through these uncomfortable and difficult trials.«

»The dream manifests itself in the present, action attentive to the world around. I smell memories in the territory of others in the midst of a theater that dances in ruins, a choreography of the body – territory, barking at the border in a situation of war. Submerged in a creative studio and open to the city and the outside, sometimes I step firmly on the ground to make sure I'm here. Living? I don't know anymore.«

»In my work I have been staring into the face of questions regarding Black liberation, anarchism, play, and the ways our current order of relations can give way to modes of being that are inherently liberatory from modernity's framing. This is articulated via sound and movement exploration that center Hip Hop as an anarcho-choreographic modality.«

›Small notes on history.‹ is part of my extended research ›From body to body‹ which focuses on the practice and lives of midwives during the population exchange between Greece and Turkey in 1924, as a result of the Treaty of Lausanne. My interest in this subject comes from my own family's history, their part in the exchange and my great aunt Despoina, a practicing midwife in both Turkey and Greece.

»Palm oil is a slow moving liquid , but many things are moving and changing very fast due palm oil production. It changes the environment, social, political, economic, people's mindset, habit and life. Ironically, the largest producer of palm oil in the world uses only 20% of its production, but the ones who receive the greatest impact directly. Such as a coin, this magical fruit have two different faces that only one can choose from.«

»Somewhere in this world, not so far away from where you’re reading this now, people are being sentenced to life in prison, or being tortured; their voices are not heard anymore. Atrocities of a government cause pain. While the nationalistic ideals are being proliferated—as a part of the monthly deal, the country wants to land on the moon fifty-three years after the original landing.«

»We came to play with the idea of the ritual; to reimagine and disrupt rituals that felt redundant and oppressive; to create fantastic and liberating ones. We used repetition. We made the floor, the box, the blackboard into musical instruments that interacted with the body. We found shrines in Zollverein. We filmed ourselves moving through these structures. Against a landscape that looked nothing like we’d seen, we tussled with our relationship with our cultures and rituals.«

»The project I was working on in my residency at PACT focuses on a subconscious mind that triggers questions and leads to subconscious reactions. How does it refer to what is humanity? The feelings and values that push us to move with each other in all ups and downs, good or bad.«
