In the framework of the project „On Seeking„

Performance quoting taglines from car ad copywriters from the past nearly 100 years (1930 – 2024). A vocal and instrumental piece interpreting a poem composed from selected car commercial slogans that do not refer directly to the car itself. The lines, taken from advertising archives, evoke the ad campaigns of both the Eastern and Western car industries, lifted from their original context, in a ritualistic repetitive performance delivered by Mark Ballyk (percussions, vocals) and Julia Koffler (vocals).
