KOSMOS program recommendations
As is well known, artists sleep until the afternoon, throw lavish parties, and indulge in various drugs. However, in the few free minutes of the day, they must also create art. That is annoying.
The AI robot HORST, which will be presented on Saturday in the Future Area, could solve this problem. It supports creative processes and independently creates artworks. The terrible and time-consuming task of painting, composing, or writing poetry oneself could, thanks to HORST and his friends, potentially be brought to an end in the future. Fantastic prospects, and that's why I will be sitting in the front row at this event.
A play is premiering at the former puppet theater, the former Atomino, the previous Luxor cinema, and now the temporary KOSMOS Schauspielhaus. When it also deals with right-wing ideologies, anti-feminism, and radicalization, one can only highly recommend this debut performance.
900 years of Chemnitz, now a Capital of Culture and still no national pastry. The Institute for East Modernism could not accept this unworthy state. After intensive research and experimentation, a cookie with a concrete look was developed. The Chemnitz Slab is now undoubtedly claiming its place in the world, alongside the Dresden Stollen, the Leipzig Lark, and the Frankfurt Wreath. At the Chemnitz Slab stand, the pastry can be admired and decorated. A must-visit for artists, gourmets, food explorers, and master bakers.
In Gera, there is the Otto Dix House, in Gaienhofen-Hemmenhofen stands the Museum Haus Dix, and in Chemnitz, there is now at least a cozy Otto Dixi cottage. Here, video works by regional and international artists are shown, compressed into the smallest space. Those who are not at all interested in video art can still enjoy the architecture, the building style, and the materiality of the Otto Dixi cottage.
A fiery disco stallion with vinyl records visits the dance palace at the Gondelstation. The early hour party is called 'That Ignites'. It sounds groovy and promises to be an honorable event. It could turn out to be top-notch, chic, and fantastic, especially when the DJ alias of rapper and local celebrity Shacke One from North Berlin presents his globally gathered party mix of disco, funk, rare groove, and boogie. Superb!
