DRITTWIRKUNG VON GRUNDRECHTEN

KLANGINSTALLATION

ZWISCHEN DEM RECHTSSUBJEKT »ICH« (NATÜRLICHE PERSON) UND DEM RECHTSSUBJEKT »ICH« (JURISTISCHE PERSON)

The sound piece vocalises cut-up excerpts from the Fundamental Rights of the German Constitution. The spoken words follow the melody of the classic Version of »Azan« and thus an assimilation process, in which the contents had been adjusted to the form, and the text to the aesthetics. The result iresonates five times a day, at the times of Islamic call for prayer, in front of the Maxim Gorki Theater. The harmony or disharmony between the project’s two reference points opens up a wide range of associations which addresses recent debates on costitutional rights, legis­lation and demands for cultural multiplicity.
