| Robert Sukrow - Paul Hubweber |
Robert Sukrow is on many soundtracks the poet's voice actor and he wrote:
(German original below)
Rolf Persch. That is not me. He is not me. Already a common ground. A few years ago, Paul Hubweber introduced me to the witty and sometimes absurd texts of the author Rolf Persch († March 5, 2015). His witticisms, but also some punch lines that only become apparent after a second listen (I myself am not excluded), convinced me to follow Paul's idea of becoming a kind of Persch recitation machine together with him. So we called ourselves the Perschings, freely, yet respectfully, tampered with Persch's works, gave them melody, a new dress, voices, noise. Trombonist and improviser Paul made me sing, disguise voices and scold, made me be a voice for someone who is no longer there and yet is. The project was an enrichment for me. No one is Rolf Persch but Rolf Persch. Video artist Ebba Jahn has created image montages/videos with our sound files that will be shown here with kickoff on Sunday, September 5 and then (for now) every Sunday at 12 noon. But, enough of my words. Sunday is Rolf then, the old plum.
German:
Rolf
Persch. Das bin nicht ich. Er ist nicht ich. Schon eine
Gemeinsamkeit. Vor wenigen Jahren lernte ich durch Paul Hubweber die geistreichen, teils aber auch absurden Texte des
Autoren Rolf Persch († 5. März 2015) kennen. Sein Wortwitz, aber
auch manche Pointe, die sich erst nach dem zweiten Hören erschließt
(Ich selbst schließe mich da nicht aus), überzeugten mich, Pauls
Idee nachzukommen, zusammen mit ihm eine Art Rezitatonsmaschine
Perschs zu werden. So nannten wir uns die Perschings, vergriffen uns
frei, dennoch respektvoll an den Werken Perschs, gaben ihm Melodie,
ein neues Kleid, Stimmen, Geräusch. Posaunist und Improvokateur Paul
brachte mich zum Singen, Stimmen verstellen und Schimpfen, brachte
mich dazu, eine Stimme zu sein für jemand, der nicht mehr da ist und
es doch ist. Das Projekt war eine Bereicherung für mich. Keiner ist
Rolf Persch außer Rolf Persch. Die Videokünstlerin Ebba Jahn hat mit unseren Soundfiles Bildmontagen/Videos geschaffen,
die mit Startschuss am Sonntag, 5. September und dann (vorerst) jeden
Sonntag um 12 Uhr hier gezeigt werden. Aber, genug meiner Worte.
Sonntag ist Rolf dann, die alte Zwetschge.

| Fungi Pair by Ebba Jahn | HD 3:18 min. | 2020, Germany |
Two rare fungi bloom into unusual beauty. Stanzas of the poem A Mushroom is the Elf of Plants by Emily Dickinson appear in text form, accompanied by a contemporary composition for multiple instruments by Paul Hubweber entitled Zellen - cells.
The music was recorded 1995 at Stadtgarten Köln/Cologne by Bull's Eye Ensemble, composed by Paul Hubweber who also played trombone on the piece.
The mushroom is called phallus luteus and grows probably only in Korea.
The film - I found one minute of fast time-lapse video material with a license to use by Apro Choi from Korea. This found footage I slowed down to the film length.
Emily Dickinson lived from 1830-1860. Please see this wikipedia link to learn more about this important American poet.
Another's View of the Universe | Video Poem by Ebba Jahn, HD 4:00 | 6.2020 | 9th Intl. Video Festival 2021/2022 | filmpoetry.org
The title's source:
Only through art can we get outside ourselves
and know another's view of the universe
which is not the same as ours... Marcel Proust
It consists of found poetry in free form also called cento*, combined with
animations depicting the universe by Julius H from Germany, and
accompanied by improvised music by the intl. trio Sverdrup Balance.
For the first time ever hear the voice of the man in the moon...

Goethe in Train | Goethe im Zug | Train Ride Duet | 3 versions of 1 video by Ebba Jahn
Three versions I made of this found footage one-take shot during lockdown time and titled it Train Ride Duet. Since I appreciate Paul Hubweber's music I asked him for a soundtrack and voila, we had a music video.
Later I heard about a Goethe poetry video call in Thüringen. I picked J.W. Goethe's 12 liner poem Sei im Leben wie im Wissen and titled the film Goethe im Zug.
For international screenings I translated it and placed each English line under the German line, so both languages can be read while listening to the music and looking out of the train window on to the sea.
I like the idea of reading Goethe in a train with a beautifully swinging jazzy duo playing a composition by Stevie Winwood.
So now it's a one-take video, a music video, a train-movie and a poetry video all in one....
So now it's a one-take video, a music video, a train-movie and a poetry video all in one....
