Internationally renowned music producer, DJ and queer activist Ipek Ipekcioglu will present a performative reading from Esther Dischereit's "Blumen für Otello – Flowers for Otello." In this performance pairs excerpts from Esther Dischereit's works, "Klagelieder" and "Flowers for Otello," written in response to racially motivated killings by the National Socialist Underground between 1998-2007 in Germany, with music she has composed in this multilingual presentation across languages in transition.
