Performance by Jealousy Party
Jealousy Party is a Berlin based abstract R&B outfit blending noise and improvisation with funk, dub and idiosyncratic electronic collage – a fusion they term Punca. Founded in Florence, Italy in 1995 by producers Roberta WJM Andreucci and Mat Pogo, JP keep their line-up open to variations and explorations, with Edoardo Ricci as their main collaborator. Right now they are active as a duo with founder members WJM and Mat Pogo on players, electronics and vocals playing metamorphic samples from the burning library of sessions that the duo recorded with an open collective of artists involved in the Jealousy Party since years. Those recordings are endlessly reshuffled, dubbed and remixed live with a spontaneous use of playback devices that has become one of Jealousy Party’s most crucial trademarks, in a frame that is never 100% improvised and never 100% fixed.

LABEN / JD ZAZIE - BOWO a body without orgasm
Inspired by: A.Artaud, G. Deleuze, F. Guattari 
“How do you make yourself a body without organs?” 
Concept: LABEN Sound: JD Zazie 
Performers: Alexandra Zoey, Challenge Gumbodete, Cristina Abati, Enrico L'Abbate, interaction with audience and guest performers 
Costumes: Chiara A.Ciarelli

BOWO is provocation, is a process, a difficulty, a cell, a visual action. BOWO is energy, informal sublimation. BOWO is partially free. BOWO goes through repetition, it is a matter of identity, an organized working system, a scary anarchic revelation, movement of the space, the thought in the duration, intuitions escaped from the vital and unavoidable organs, partial castration of the pure pleasure, landscape of current utopias, not really performable, which reveal themselves.

The dialogue between visual language and sound follows the research around the subject, as a vocabulary used to create a unique sequence of intensities, coherent with a ryzomathic vision of the action, in which every point of view is welcome to change and move with us, tries to understand the rules of a different democratic vision of reality that crosses utopia, revolution and anarchism with out any heroic attitude.

JD ZAZIE is an italian avant-turntablist, sound artist and curator. Coming from a DJ and radiophonic background JD Zazie has explored over the years different approaches of real-time manipulation on fixed recorded sound sources.
 Her live and recorded output works to redefine electroacoustic activities. As a solo performer, in small groups or large ensembles she moves in an area which is constantly stretching the borders of what is supposed to be DJ mixing, free improvisation and composition. 
Juxtaposition, decontextualization, fragmentation, repetition, sonic texture, scratch and error are elements of the grammar adopted to relate, organize and rearrange the sound material. She has participated in numerous international events and exhibitions. She is the art director of the international festival "MuseRuole", is a member of the Italian label Burp Enterprise and co-runs Staalplaat Radio. http://jdzazie.tumblr.com | http://www.burpenterprise.com
