the long read:
It is not unusual, but rather the norm, that the people behind Berlin's DIY concert scene are musically active themselves. They are all united by their enthusiasm and willingness to take matters into their own hands. They strive to strengthen structures and shape culture, usually under very precarious conditions.
The concert series Frictive Frequencies now brings some of the cultural activists who usually work behind the scenes into the spotlight. Over the years, they have all developed remarkable forms of expression as artists, but have often taken a back seat in favor of their organizational activities.
Frictive Frequencies now brings the artistic side of the organizers to the fore, giving something back to this scene. The series sees itself not only as a forum for improvised music, but also as a place for communication and exchange about DIY practices. The invited guests present their own sound languages and share their experiences in artistic and organizational practice in short talks.

Lisa Simpson‘s performance project Agente Costura, led by a singing sewing machine, is a continuous building site for self playing instruments, acting and reacting in an ever fluctuating state of chaos. As Agente Costura she created a whole multisensorial universe, where sounds are coming from speaking hats, modified machines and aberrantly placed microphones. Lisa Simpson works as an artist, performer, craftivist, seamstress, teacher, instrument builder and noise enthusiast.
