For most of November I’ve been creating the sound design for “Das stille Leben der verlorenen Dinge (The Quiet Living Of Lost Things)”, an installation at the Kunstverein Wagenhalle in Stuttgart. Combining site-specific performance, installation, live radio play and object theatre, it tells the story of a one-armed 15-year-old-girl who embarks on a fantastical journey.

For those who miss the stream, a trailer for the
