ARTDREAMS & JAZZCENTRET PRÆSENTERER:
Dear audience!
Before I write down some thoughts which came up after a long interview with Franz, the Mole I want to express my gratitude to the wonderful and loyal audience I had in the first five concerts of NICHT KAPUTT. The concerts will go on, the next one will be on Friday the 25.07. in the Jazz Center.
Beforehand I would like to explain my thoughts and why I have chosen a mole as my partner in this non ending adventure. All animals are honest, also the cats.
But moles are blind as well. So their other senses like smelling, listening, touching, are much more developed to compensate for their blindness. This means of course that he chooses his friends without knowing how they look like, because he can´t see them. But he can smell them, and if they are too perfumed, some of them maybe wearing ties - he feels them because they touch him as he passes by – then an authentic mole will avoid them.
Because they are blind they make their tunnels in order to make connection without having interests to show or to prove something. A very rare quality. They want only to be NOT alone and to share.
Moles are very humble, empathetic, and lack narcissistic traits. I want to learn all of this from them.
The world would be a much better place if people would have the same approach to life and earth like the moles! Because human beings are able to see, they always want to have their own direction, thinking they can decide and have everything what they see! This makes them greedy! A mole has also his own direction but he can´t became greedy because he can´t see where he is digging and this makes him so wise!
As you know, in the last NICHT KAPUTT concert Franz the mole appeared after a very long journey from Bizantium. Like it is written in the mole bible: ...and all is always now..., our communication is based on a telepathic astral technology. Space and time are abolished. And his being in what we call our real world can be only for maximum 2 hours! If he exceeds the two hours, he becomes mortal.
Excerps from an interview with Franz, before he went back into his dimension:
Me: What was your smelling impression, being in a real Jazz Metropole town? As far as I know, 2500 years ago in Byzantium there was no Jazz yet?
Franz: Yes, that’s right. The smell and the sound of the notes in Byzantium is not defined in words because nobody can read. Therefore every sound has inside a huge amount of mystery which can be smelled or touched or heard and this opens the fantasy and also the abilities to play and to live together.
Me: How do a mole became grown up?
Franz: We call it Entrepreneurship for finding our identity by eating worms. It is a little bit different like in the Jazz Metropole Town I popped up: We survive and get grown up by digging until we find worms, so we can eat AFTER digging! And if you can´t find worms, of course you will die as a mole. You have to deserve your identity or die. The creatures in the Jazz Metropol Town can see, therefore they don´t need to smell or to feel! By seeing they can read and write therefore the can make so called applications BEFORE they start digging!
This applications has to be send and approved by different worm banks called EOWBP (Entrepreneurship Of Worm Bank Politics).
If you wear a good smelling tie and if you give to this good smelling tie a brand name, the chances are much bigger to get your worms before you can start to work on your project. The name of the brand and the smell of a good looking tie is much more important for EOWBP then the content. If you learn to get worms before bringing the result, the chances to became a star is much bigger. And of course, if you call yourself a composer the world is yours! But these values can´t survive because they are not honest.
Me: What do you mean by this?
Franz, the Mole: Yeah well, these seeing creatures are burning much more for their worms and not for their believing. Like it is written: Show me your worms and I tell you who you are.
And it is also written, if two creatures are telling you that you´re drunk you should go to sleep.
But of course this means also, if two or more creatures are telling you that the way you get your worms is good, then you start to believe it like the emperor with his new clothes.
Me: Thank you Franz, for these interesting thoughts!!!
The moral of this true story is:
Not the worms are making the quality! By digging you will get your worms!
