Dada Kaffee, Zurich – 11 September 2024, 20:15. First cool evening of autumn. Green puffer jacket on, pink scarf twice around the neck. Kinky said I looked ready for Siberia. I said Siberia would laugh at this.
The cards
I brought the invitation cards. Small, square, printed on rough paper. On the front: an open sketchbook with a winking orange cat climbing out of it. On the back: the date, a Saturday in mid-October, and "Kreis 4, ask the crew". We hand them out by paw. No posters, no noise. People who get a card get a story with it.
Each of us takes a stack. Kinky will give hers to everyone she meets, which means they will be gone by Friday.
The live wall
PoshX wants something that moves on the night. Her idea: one long sheet of paper on the wall of the room, and during the evening all four of us draw on it, together, slowly. Visitors can add a line if they want. By midnight it will be a skyline of everyone who came.
DeeNice agreed to draw on it. Behind a curtain of other people, she said. We know.
The playlist
Kinky presented her playlist. AC/DC, yes, but also Bowie, The Cure, Annie Lennox and a Mozart aria for the opening. PoshX checked it twice. The promise from August is kept. DeeNice crossed it out in the notebook with a satisfied little line.
Before October
Two more Sunday sorting sessions, then lighting tests. Everyone free on the Saturday, including PoshX, who swapped a shift months ago.
