Research & Teaching
Hi, I'm Jonny-Bix. I'm a Berlin-based curator, dramaturg, artist and researcher working across performance, AI and digital culture.
I create exhibitions, performances and public programmes that explore how new technologies shape the way we relate to one another, tell stories and imagine the future.
I'm interested in making complex technological and social questions tangible through artistic experiences that invite curiosity, conversation and new perspectives.
About
Werther’s Quest For Love
Performance
In his letters, the young Werther tells of the fears that accompany him, thus allowing us to glimpse into his world of sensations and reveries. He seems to be searching for a coherent identity, yet everywhere he encounters only normative expectations. He resists and searches for alternative narratives of masculinity. Via live-streaming portals he shows himself the way he wants to show himself. Undefined and multifaceted. Unlike in Goethe's epistolary novel, Werther today does not reveal himself to a pen pal, but rather sells his innermost self in the currents and eddies of the Internet of so-called social media.
