NOWHERE

house by Kyohei Sakaguchi for NOWHERE Berlin

In NOWHERE Marino Formenti lives, eats, sleeps and plays the piano for several weeks in one and the same space,
open to the public and on a 24/7 internet streaming.
Time, space, sound, togetherness are explored on a truly different scale.

People are invited to come and stay, to leave and come back, to listen, to ignore the pianist, to sleep, to read, to write
or draw, to lay down, to listen again, to come back the next day, to experience music and time in another way.

Works by J.S. Bach, J. Cage, L. Couperin, M. Formenti, G. Frescobaldi, F. El Atrache, B. Eno, J.J. Froberger, M. Feldman, Nirvana and/or others.
Live streaming 24/7.
