If science is queen in the Humboldt Lab, then the #Logoscope is her court jester. Every month since 2021, artistic freedom has taken to the exhibition space at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin to use literature to shake up the view of science. Equipped with a microphone and amplification system, two slam poets wander through the exhibition and recite texts.
This time they will be joined by slam poets Pauline Füg and Tobias Heyel. Together they will comment on the exhibition "On Water" with live texts. Visitors are invited to accompany them on their eloquent tour. Curated by Bas Böttcher.
Pauline Füg, born in Leipzig in 1983 and now based in Fürth, has been one of the most influential voices in German-language stage poetry for many years. With a background in psychology and a master's degree in creative writing and cultural journalism, she combines analytical clarity with poetic imagery - a trademark that characterizes her performances as much as her texts.
She has been performing on European stages since 2003: as a stage poet, author, creative coach and empathetic presenter. She has received several awards for her artistic work, including the Kulturpreis Bayern, the Kulturförderpreis der Stadt Würzburg, the Arbeitsstipendium des Freistaats Bayern and the Kulturpreis der Stadt Nürnberg. Her latest volume of poetry, nach der illusion, shows how intense, musical and at the same time reflective her language is.
Together with Tobias Heyel, Pauline Füg has formed the duo großraumdichten since 2005 - the longest-serving and most championship-tested slam team in the German-speaking world. Twelve qualifications for the German-language poetry slam championships mark an extraordinary continuity and creative perseverance. In their joint performances, synchronized or staggered spoken texts merge with beats and visual elements to create an atmospheric stage set that is poetic, playful and often surprisingly physical.
At LOGOSKOP, Pauline Füg will be performing both solo and as a duo in the team großraumdichten. She presents texts that oscillate between intimacy and intellectual force: precisely observing, atmospherically condensed, with a presence that immediately engages the audience. Füg's performances thrive on subtle nuances, rhythmic tensions and a way of speaking that takes silence just as seriously as volume. An evening that not only shows language in motion, but also an artist who thinks, feels and makes poetry audible.
Tobias Heyel was born in Biberach and lives in Stuttgart. He has been one of the most distinctive voices on the German-speaking spoken word scene for many years. Since the mid-2000s, he has performed on stages throughout the German-speaking world and beyond, known for his precisely composed texts, his rhythmic delivery and a stage presence that combines wit and intensity. His writing moves between poetry, spoken word and narrative miniatures, carried by a voice that masters rhythm and reflection in equal measure. In addition to his work as an author and performer, he also works as a photographer - an eye for atmosphere that is always subtly inscribed in his artistic projects.
At LOGOSKOP, Tobias Heyel shows his artistic versatility in two facets: First, solo, with texts characterized by linguistic clarity, depth of thought and an unmistakable performative energy. In the second part of the evening, he will be on stage together with Pauline Füg - the two have formed the duo großraumdichten since 2005.
Guests at LOGOSKOP will thus experience Tobias Heyel as a solo artist with his own staccato of language, which sometimes tips over from High German into Swabian, and at the same time as part of one of the longest-lived and most innovative poetry teams in Europe.
