AKIN ist eine interdisziplinäre Komposition, die sich mit Vergänglichkeit und Zugehörigkeit befasst und über den Kreislauf von Geburt, Leben, Tod als untrennbar miteinander verbundene Phänomene erzählt.
Durch die audiovisuelle Verbindung von elektroakustischen Klanglandschaften mit Performancekunst und Butoh-Tanz werden Szenen kreiert, die zwischenmenschliche Beziehungen, Rituale, Grenzen und allgemein menschliche Verbindungen nachzeichnen und interpretieren.
AKIN versucht einen intimen Einblick in das weite Spektrum menschlicher Gefühle und Verhaltensweisen zwischen den Extremen von Liebe und Schmerz zu geben.
Die in minimalistischer Klarheit gehaltenen Bilder symbolisieren hierbei die Bedeutungskraft des Immateriellen und Universellen.
Die Darsteller verändern sich fortlaufend während Spiels, da sie einem ständigen Wechsel der Haltungen und Stimmungen unterworfen sind. So verkörpern sie Charakteristika des Primitiven, Melancholischen, Zarten, Animalischen und Sakralen.
All jene Zustände und Bilder, die auch der Mensch jeden Tag, bewusst oder unbewusst, sichtbar oder versteckt, für sich ein- und aufnimmt.

AKIN is a multi-disciplined composition relating to transience and belonging, overarching a connection from birth-to life-to death. By mediums of performance art, Butoh dance and live electro-acoustic soundscapes the piece reveals scenes interpreting boundaries, connection, rituals and interrelation between human beings; an intimate expansion between love and pain.
White creatures in pure and minimalistic images are giving a symbolic meaning to the immaterial and universal.
Performers continuously transform, led by characteristics of the primitive, animalistic, melancholic, delicate and sacral embodiment; moods shifting from one second to another.
We all play out these images every day, hidden and visible, all relatable.
Every artist is coming from a different cultural background and has grown up in different countries – Germany, Indonesia, Japan, Sweden and USA. Three performers are based in Berlin and one in Stockholm.
They are connected by their passion to challenge the boundaries of confinement and their joy of collaborating interdisciplinary.
The fragile frame of improvisation gives the performers their own free self-expression, creating an urgency, a life nerve and something totally new by performing live. Integrating the audience, time and space by live electro-acoustic soundscapes and radical human transformations by Performance art and Butoh dance.
Akin might be a door opener to a new space and form for a new boundary crossing - a new belonging - coming home with being yourself and the beauty of crossing boundaries by art.

This translates directly to his goal of combining traditional music and electronic music during a performance setting.
