Meine Sprache heißt Wut

In the organizer's words:

13 years after the NSU was exposed, we are now at a crossroads in the political battle of opinion. While the political elite struggles for the sovereignty of meaning, social media has mutated into a political space that has long since shaped reality. Activist tactics, troll factories and groups and a business model based on anger and outrage are radicalizing our society. The fronts are hardening. Spaces that enable real encounters are becoming ever smaller and less significant.

"My language is called anger!" is an experiment in which three performers, with the help of AI-generated personalities, immerse themselves in various algorithms from Tik Tok. The created characters quickly become radicalized, but the performers themselves are also constantly forced to question their own political position. Together with the audience, they wrestle over political identities and opinions, repel each other and almost merge in a shared rage at reality.
