Klagemühle/
Mourning Wheel
Hugo Ball
Totenklage/Death Chant
Ein Trauergesang
für alle Arten, die aufgrund des Klimawandels und der Umweltverschmutzung in den kommenden Jahren aussterben werden.
Die Klagemühle funktioniert wie eine traditionelle tibetische Gebetsmühle:
Mit jedem Anhören geht eine Klage in die Welt.
A lament
for all species that will become extinct in the coming years as a result of climate change and environmental pollution.
The mourning wheel works like a traditional Tibetan prayer wheel:
with every listen, a lament is sent out into the world.
English below!
Das Artensterben ist eine der großen ökologischen Katastrophen unserer Zeit. Die Wissenschaft geht davon aus, dass die Rate des Artensterbens gegenwärtig etwa 100 mal höher liegt als in den vergangenen zehn Millionen Jahren
ENGLISH
Species extinction is one of the great ecological disasters of our time. Scientists estimate that the current rate of species extinction is around 100 times higher than it has been over the past ten million years
Around a quarter of all species on Earth are threatened with extinction. We find ourselves in a historically unique situation in which we must accept and mourn an unimaginably great loss that is unfolding in the present and the future. This mourning wheel offers an initial response to this, using artistic means. Hugo Ball’s “Totenklage” (Lament for the Dead) was created in 1916 as part of the first Dada events in Zurich and was directed at the madness of the First World War. The sound poem rejected conventional language and grammar in order to demonstrate the extent to which the entire culture, including language itself, bears responsibility for the tragedy of this unbridled war. Today, we do not yet have the words or the language to grasp the impending catastrophe for life on Earth. Much of it can no longer be prevented, and we must begin to mourn in order to avert the very worst.
Es gibt natürlich auch die Option, die Totenklage selbst zu rezitieren. Unten findet sich der Text!
