Performance at Mica Moca

On Saturday 16 July we drove from Prague to Berlin to take part in the Summer of Tagtool II event at Mica Moca Club – an evening of open air Tagtool performances in the courtyard of this former factory.When we arrived there was a very lively atmosphere with musicians playing, families sitting in the courtyard in the sunshine and all over the buildings there were installations and pieces of artwork, some by visiting artists and others made by local groups.Dima set up all the equipment in one of the empty rooms so that Bego, Dieter Puntigam and I had an opportunity to test everything before the evening performances and then when it began to get dark we took the projectors and Tagtools outside into the yard.When we were drawing Ernst kindly took these photos for me with my small camera. Below is a sequence of images from my first drawing….….and below are some stills from Dieter’s performance.The enclosed courtyard was very dark at night – which was ideal for Tagtooling – and the pattern of the windows and brickwork gave a nice added texture to the drawing.
