_ Approach to Work In situ production was founded in 1998 as a group. Their research is concerned mainly with the topics: the human body, body images and their perception in relation to a fundamental questioning of the term 'performance', the representation and the depiction.
_ Current Production "E.X.T.E.N.S.I.O.N.S.#2.7": Is changing the name changing the code and changing the code changing the translation? Or, is changing the translation changing the transmission? Is changing the message changing the transmissionor is changing the context changing the concept? Is changing the concept changing the method or is changing the method changing the product? Is changing the product changing the production and is changing the production changing the game?	_ Future Projects 2001: E.X.T.E.N.S.I.O.N.S. #2.9 (Springdance, Utrecht), E.X.T.E.N.S.I.O.N.S. #3 (Kunstenfestival des Arts, Kaaitheatre, Brussels) 2002: "Saint Francois d'Assise", Opera by Olivier Messiaen, Deutsche Oper, Berlin in Collaboration with Daniel Libeskind. _ Repertory _ "E.X.T.E.N.S.I.O.N.S.#2, 3, 4" - (in cooperation with Stefan Pente.) _ "Product of Circumstances" Lecture Performance (1999), Solo, 65 min. _ "Self Unfinished" (1998), Solo, 55 min. _ Links
