On July 8, the Incubation Pod will be open for a whole night. From sunset to dawn, visitors are invited to delve into a state between sleep and being awake, dream and reality, illness and healing, death and rebirth. Throughout the night, the works of the international artists activating the Museum Angewandte Kunst during the Festival can be experienced by those paying them somnambulist visits. BVDS’ “Echo’s Chamber” will be activated and a specially curated live programme will accompany the long hours of the night.

As the sun sets, Hanna Launikovich and Laura Waltz will open the nocturnal happenings with their performance “Spellbound”. This immersive sound experience explores the transformative power of witchcraft as a feminist practice, encompassing healing, effecting change, and reclaiming one’s body within a patriarchal society.

From midnight on, “Die Werkstatt”, a space collaboratively created by the Tunisian collective El Warcha with young people from Frankfurt and Offenbach, transforms into a dreamlike landscape hosting an extensive ambient music program. Museum of No Art will initiate the journey with a mesmerizing live set with voice, sampler, synthesizer, clarinet and effects, followed by the sounds of Awkward Guest, Valeska, and Zwist, whose ambient DJ sets allow for immersion in otherworldly realms.

After sunrise, Choreographer Joana Tischkau will kick off the day with “Colonastics”, a fitness workout that does without the colonial and neo-colonial practices of the fitness industry, feeding solely on the physicality of white cultural practices.

During the whole night, there will be drinks and snacks available.
