ausland is an independent venue for music, film, literature, performance and other artistic endeavours. We also offer our infrastructure for artists and projects for rehearsals, recordings, and workshops, as well as a number of residencies. Inaugurated in 2002, ausland is run by a collective of volunteers (= auslรคnders): Artists themselves and/or culture & DIY-enthusiasts from different backgrounds and countries. Our genre-spanning programme is curated through the individual initiative of auslรคnders or in cooperation with external partners in the independent arts scene or institutions in Berlin and from abroad. We have the freedom to host any formats and artists which we deem exciting and interesting without regard to commercial interests or hypes and trends. The program is partly structured by long running series focussing on specific artistic (sub-)genres. Located in the souterrain of a formerly squatted, currently collectively owned house and rooted in the 1990's squatters subculture of Berlin we do not bridge but are the gap between underground and mainstream, DIY-subculture and the art establishment. Events at ausland are often realized without a budget, in other words they are made possible through volunteer efforts with the artists receiving only the takings from the door. Some of the events hosted at ausland receive project related funding from various partners for whose support we are grateful.

The concert series Frictive Frequencies brings some of the mostly behind-the-scenes cultural activists in the field of improvised music in Berlin into the spotlight. It makes the artistic side of the organizers visible, giving something back to this scene. The series sees itself not only as a forum for improvised music, but also as a place for communication and the exchange of ideas about DIY practices. The invited guests present their own unique sonic languages, and also share their experiences in artistic and organizational practice in short talks.

Mizuki Ishikawa is one of the most sought-after sound artists and improvisers in both Berlinโ€™s Echtzeitmusik music scene and its DIY experimental scene. She is regarded as an established and reliable pillar of these communities, as well as a dedicated organizer and generous collaborator. Ishikawa uses small, rather spartan setups consisting of homemade electronics, various objects, and feedback. Through small, sometimes unpredictable, but always determined actions, she reminds the audience of the spatial situation and the context in which they find themselves.

Lorena Izquierdo, a singer, performer, poet, and curator, works at the intersection of experimental music, performance art, and philosophy. The artist, who is originally from Valencia and lives in Berlin, has spent nearly a decade building bridges between the avant-garde DIY scenes of both cities. Expect action poetry, an art form that Izquierdo describes as โ€œthe brilliance of monstrous, unshakable restraint.โ€

Matthias Koole plays the guitar using advanced techniques and unconventional objects to create dense textures. Expect to hear bows, balloons, drumsticks, and custom-made capos, as well as no-input routing or even the echo of water from field recordings. Any hope of chord progressions or predictable harmonies should be left at the coat check. Koole organizes concert series, festivals, and record labels on a large scaleโ€”in Brazil and Germany.

Funded by Musikfonds e.V. by means of the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media.

Die Konzertreihe Frictive Frequencies macht einige der meist im Hintergrund tรคtigen Macher:innen hinter Berlins DIY Konzertszene fรผr improvisierte Musik sichtbar. Sie alle haben mit den Jahren als Kรผnstler:innen bemerkenswerte Ausdrucksformen entwickelt, sich aber nicht selten zugunsten ihrer veranstalterischen Tรคtigkeit zurรผck genommen. Frictive Frequencies stellt nun die kรผnstlerische Seite der Organisator:innen nach vorne und gibt damit dieser Szene etwas zurรผck. Die eingeladenen Gรคste prรคsentieren ihre jeweils eigenen Klangsprachen und teilen in kurzen talks ihre Erfahrungen in kรผnstlerischer und organisatorischer Praxis.

Mizuki Ishikawa ist eine der gefragtesten Klangkรผnstlerinnen und Improvisatorinnen sowohl der Berliner Echtzeitmusik-, als auch der DIY-Experimental-Szene. Sie gilt als etablierte und verlรคssliche Stรผtze dieser Communities und als engagierte Organisatorin und groรŸzรผgige Kooperationspartnerin. Ishikawa nutzt kleine, eher spartanische Setups aus selbstgebauter Elektronik, verschiedenen Objekten und Rรผckkopplungen. Mit kleinen, manchmal unvorhersehbaren, aber stets entschlossenen Handlungen erinnert sie das Publikum an die rรคumliche Situation und den Kontext, in dem es sich befindet.

Lorena Izquierdo, Sรคngerin, Performerin, Dichterin und Kuratorin, arbeitet an der Schnittstelle von experimenteller Musik, Performancekunst und Philosophie. Die aus Valencia stammende und in Berlin lebende Kรผnstlerin hat fast ein Jahrzehnt damit verbracht, Brรผcken zwischen den avantgardistischen DIY-Szenen der beiden Stรคdte zu schlagen. Zu erwarten ist Aktionspoesie, eine Kunstform, die Izquierdo als โ€žGlanz der monstrรถsen unerschรผtterlichen Zurรผckhaltungโ€œ bezeichnet.

Matthias Koole bearbeitet die Gitarre mithilfe erweiterter Spieltechniken und unkonventioneller Gegenstรคnde, um dichte Strukturen zu erzeugen. Man kann sich auf Bรถgen, Luftballons, Trommelstรถcke und maรŸgefertigte Kapodaster, No-Input-Routing oder sogar das Nachhallen von Wasser aus Feldaufnahmen gefasst machen. Jede Hoffnung auf Akkordfolgen oder erwartete Harmonien sollte man an der Garderobe abgeben. Koole organisiert in groรŸem Umfang Konzertreihen, Festivals, Plattenlabels โ€“ in Brasilien und Deutschland.

Gefรถrdert vom Musikfonds e.V. mit Projektmitteln des Beauftragten der Bundesregierung fรผr Kultur und Medien.

Eintritt: 10,- euro (kein Vorverkauf)

Scenes from the final of 2026!

Thanks to the artists who closed biegungen 2026 with flocks of argumentative birds and steamboat murmurations from Ryoko Ono and Peter Van Huffel; and the thโ€™thโ€™thumps, distant shimmers and echoes of haunted arboreal-punk industries from M. Takara, Carla Boregas and Dudรน Kouate.

Thanks so much to Tadklimp for the sound, and to Silvie, Chiara and Salah making sure the evening ran smoothly.

A big thanks to Florian Fritsch for his awesome photography. We really appreciate his on-point documentation of this yearโ€™s biegungen; not only capturing the sights, but also the vibe and atmosphere of the series.ย 

And finally, thank you to everyone who came and supported our series this year. I hope youโ€™ve enjoyed the journey as much as we have.

/// Vinyl Hou(r)s Record Club #05 with Andrea Neumann ///

This gathering is about listening, together.
Each time, one Navigator is invited.
They bring the carefully chosen selection of records from their collection.

The only request we make is simple:
present one side of a record, and listen to the entire side together.

Find your corner. Settle in with a drink โ€” sometimes there are chips and vegan brownies.
Feel free to bring something to share.

Put your headphones away for a while.
Getting back the warmth of vinyl.
Music shared, time slowed, presence honored.

We start at 15:00 and end 19:00

A lecture-performance and installation developed from a month-long durational performance carried out across thirty sites in Berlin marked by historical and contemporary violence. Each day, the artist remained motionless in public space for a predetermined duration, beginning with one hour and gradually reducing the duration to fifteen minutes by the final day, allowing the body to become both witness and archive.

Rather than representing violence, the work investigates how violence continues to inhabit places through repetition, memory, and institutional structures. The project understands choreography in its original sense; as the inscription of place through the body. Through stillness, exhaustion, sound, projected documentation, and spatial interventions, the performance unfolds as a living cartography that asks what remains after violence has disappeared from view.

Presented as an expanded lecture-performance and installation, the work combines performance, documentation, research, and audio description, inviting audiences to reflect on duration, witnessing, and the politics of visibility.

Using the sรฉance as a method, the project approaches history non-linearly, creating space for encounters with fragmented, unresolved, and embodied histories.

As part of our second research residency at ausland, we invite visitors and collaborators to join us for a day of shared research, revisiting objects and protocols from earlier sรฉance sessions while opening the possibility of exploring something new.

Each encounter shifts the project through different objects, materials, and relationships. Rather than reconstructing a fixed past, we rehearse ways of relating to fragmentary, unresolved histories, resisting linear narration and authoritative voices.

Our aim is to create situations where historical engagement becomes a collective practice and embodied experience, holding space for questions, contradictions, and partial knowledge rather than seeking answers.

Join on October 24 for a day of shared research!

A poetic, multisensory performance set in a world of creatures and light, where violence drains the land of its color and radiance. Triggered by the Japanese governmentโ€™s efforts to revise and erase the history of WWII sexual slavery, the piece metaphorically depicts this process of injustice.

The piece is performed by two Deaf artists in German Sign Language, poetic sign, and Visual Vernacular.

Throughout the performance, moving lights and music (with lyrics in spoken English) accompany the stories. Sometimes, the soundscore contains vibrations, so that Deaf audiences can physically feel them. Light Trees is presented as a relaxed performance.

๐‚๐”๐“.๐˜“๐˜–๐˜–๐˜š๐˜Œ is a physical and vocal duet in which intimacy collides with violence, tenderness with aggression, and the private dialect of a couple with the political language engulfing them.โฃ
Created 2016, the work emerged during a period of intense violence and bloodshed between the river and the sea. At its core was a deeply personal urgency: to understand how systemic and political violence finds its way into intimate life. What happens when the language of war, security and conflict enters the body and the home? How does it transform our speech, our fights, desires and care? โฃ
On stage, Marin and Weiner confront one another through movement, text, rhythm, voice and physical struggle. Their dynamic fluctuates between a duet and a duel, between attraction and resistance, vulnerability, compliance and control. Words materialize; gestures become arguments, and intimacy - the arena where larger structures of power are negotiated.โฃ
๐‚๐”๐“. ๐˜“๐˜–๐˜–๐˜š๐˜Œ examines the relationship between systemic violence and that which inhabits everyday gestures and relationships. It asks how political realities pe*****te spaces commonly imagined as private, and how collective narratives are embodied: affecting language, sexuality, gender and power balance.โฃ
Over the decade since its creation, Marin and Weiner have performed ๐‚๐”๐“. ๐˜“๐˜–๐˜–๐˜š๐˜Œ dozens of times across Europe and the US. The work has travelled through different political moments and audiences, growing along its performers and accumulating new meanings . An immediate response to contemporary reality has become a persistent, continuous state.โฃ
Ten years later, Marin and Weiner revisit ๐‚๐”๐“. ๐˜“๐˜–๐˜–๐˜š๐˜Œ with the unsettling feeling that the work was somehow made for precisely these days. The questions it raised have'nt subsided. If anything, the relation between collective violence and intimate life, lived reality and the body, has gained an an alarmingly urgent dimension.
