A-B-A-B-A: from here to hear. A film by Clara Jo
The collaboration ‘A-B-A-B-A : from hear to here’ evolved as a series of workshops and poetry events in Addis Ababa and Berlin starting in 2012. Testing new structures and methods in an artistic dialogue, the series set out to explore oral traditions in Amharic poetry culture, translations and interpretations between German, English and Amharic, and performative elements on stage, including traditional Ethiopian music combined with contemporary jazz elements and electronic music. Clara Jo’s film A-B-A-B-A : from here to hear follows the participating artists from stage to stage, from Volksbühne Berlin (July 2014) and the Alliance Ethio-Française d’Addis-Abeba (February 2015), and features interviews which reflect on various traditions within contemporary practice.
