dear Johannes, i am about to go to Prague Quadriennal with my new work ASSEMBLE. A bit hectic with some life drama around me. I will try to articulate more of my thoughts in writing about my understanding of somatic alarms when i will return, end of June. Embodiment and mediations, collective and/or individual are important to me.
