Hello hello, dearest community! Week 38 comes with many diverse artistic vibes that go from 🥚a multidisciplinary performance, 👁a workshop to redirect our inner energies to 🦜a reading accompanied with singings & drawing competition for humans from 6 years old. 🖍 All of these is happening in A-Huset (yes, the big red brick building with a light blue A outside). Scroll down for more details 😜

🥚On Friday we bring you a live performance including video, movement, motion capture, and live music by ‘Failure Egg’ collective artists Jack Helfrich, Jemila MacEwan, and Rob Ruth.
'Failure Egg’ takes inspiration from the eco-queer evolution of life on earth, drawing from examples of vulnerable yet enduring survivors of planetary transformation. These life forms testify how mutation and hybridization dissolve notions of hierarchy, gender binary, species distinction, and egoic notions of individuality.

👁Saturday there is a presentation and workshop where participants will explore the alchemical process and create ways to transform energy that is holding them back into energy that fuels their heart's truest desires being fulfilled.
The artist facilitator Nova Scott-James, is a filmmaker, innovation doula and community organizer from Harlem, NYC.

🦜On Sunday the action-packed story 'The Legend of Lord B' is read out and its songs are sung in Danish and English.
On this exciting B-day you can participate in an environmental drawing competition, win great prizes, have fun and save the environment at the same time. Age: from 6 years. For more details: https://fb.me/e/1JugokQdw

The Electric Café is back.
This time, we'll showcase AMBIENT live from our friends from UK & Portugal.

Taking a contemporary yet deeply romantic approach to ambient music, “The Snipe & The Clam” showcases a blend of luscious synth melodies and harmonics, set against a heavily organic dynamic backbone.

People coming back from holidays, the city is starting to be fully alive with students again and we are very excited to share with you our weekly program: a collage of activities aiming to satisfy the multi-diverse interests of our guests. From cinema & electronic music, to groovy dance and storytelling.

We are glad to announce you that an Open Air Cinema experience is coming to our neighborhood!
This Wednesday you will have the chance to watch a Scandinavian production with English subtitles: the film BORDER, directed by Ali Abbasi will be screen. An exciting, intelligent mix of romance, Nordic noir, social realism and supernatural tale that defies and subverts genre conventions.

Film review by Phil de Semlyen:
❝ (...). It also chucks in uncomfortable questions about assimilation and the superficial judgments we make of people, as well as plenty of icky moments that bury themselves under your skin and stay there.”

To cover the price of the movie license, attendants are encourage to buy popcorn for 75 dkk. The event is a non-profit project.

On Friday you will have the chance to attend to a DANCE party in our always welcoming A-Huset. Starting groove dance by Nomi at 18 and continuing with Dj Mazeeb at 19:30 to light up the dance floor. From 22 and on Dj Groovy master therapy will be surprising you with guests Djs. Entrance costs 150 dkk at 18 and 100 dkk from 19.30.

Further more, a new cultural platform is landing in our venue! EMBASSY RESIDENCY is dedicated to the documentation and enhancement of hybrid cultures, combining the respective sounds from two different electronic scenes by bringing leading artists together into in-house residencies, exploring the possibilities for co-producing new material.

This Saturday at 20:00, the residence of ZULI (EG) and CROATIAN AMOR (DK) ends with a live performance in A-Huset.

The two artists have been monumental in establishing infrastructure for experimental electronic music in their representative scenes. Both artists have also made big waves in the international scene with their, each very distinctive and highly individual, sound.

Ticket fee is 80kr, 100kr at the door.
