The starting point for the project was the book/audio book „German for Aliens” by Martin Auer.


The book consists of many and varied short stories that play with the German language, because the texts only seem to be German. In fact, they are stories with invented word creations that sound like German. Although one hears only gibberish, images arise in one’s mind. You experience the German language from the outside, like someone who doesn’t speak German.

In the harmony of dance and language, dance as language emerges.
