tetralemmatic roses for a birthday Elisabeth Anna Maria Kaiser Composer Johannes Winkler Composer Wilde Lieder Marx.Music Sound Art Winner Performances tetralemmatic roses for a birthday will be performed in Trier on Saturday 1 September. To his birthday we give Karl Marx composed roses that are arranged in the pathway of a tetralemma, which originates from the Indian logic. It can serve as a scheme of action between idealism and materialism: the struggle of divalent opposites as the motor of any development, as in Hegel's dialectics, is included as a core, it then becomes located stepwise in its respective context. Unlike Hegel, this development is one that opens the still unknown (10 seconds silence) in which then can be 'jumped' as a last step: 1-Red Rose | 2-White Rose | 3-(1∧2) | 4-(¬3)-Blackberry Rose: Singer and composer Elisabeth Anna Maria Kaiser transforms her communion and interactions with her special artistic partners, real roses, her conviction that consciousness is a fundamental part of the universe and the synesthetic way of her perception into a direct holistic expression of voice and body. Also different parts of the plants become filters and instruments within the interactions. People who receive such a rose can hear and feel nearly unlimited the transformation of their plant. 5-(¬ ¬4)-Little White Duck (Raag!): Within the instant composition Elisabeth’s voice became alive, transformed into a little white duck expressing through her consciousness, voice and body.
