> RECAP: go plastic STUDIO LAB #1 3
From May 2 to 9, 2026, the 13th edition of our go plastic go plastic STUDIO LAB took place at TENZA.
This issue was entirely devoted to our rehearsals and the new production of TUNE BACK (time). Company classes were given by Cindy Hammer, Kevin Albancando, and Suzette Sagisi. We are also enjoining a Gaga workshop and class with Smadar Goshen, Grooves & Choreography with Luise Knofe, and a workshop jam with the Gems Crew with a live DJ-set by David Le Thai. In addition, there were exciting insights into the development process of our new production.
We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to all participants, and we are still deeply moved by those eventful days at TENZA. A few photos from those days in May are now available as well.

>> TUNE BACK (T I M E)
Between Retrospection and New Beginnings – A Performance About Yesterday as a Blueprint for Tomorrow
TUNE BACK (time) explores nostalgia as a state of the present. Through an aesthetic of loops, glitches, and sound fragments, six performers translate digital vaporwave worlds into movement. Between recognition and strangeness, personal memory and collective imagery, a choreography emerges about the longing for past futures.
The TUNE BACK (time) Startnext crowdfunding campaign
After we unfortunately been informed that a key federal funding for our project had not been approved, we restructured our funding plan together with our partners. However, there is still a funding gap that we now hope to close with your help through a crowdfunding campaign on Startnext.
With the first 2,500 Euro raised through the campaign, we aim to cover personnel and equipment costs for our backstage team, ensure the work behind the scenes continues, and take the next step in implementing the project.
We would therefore be immensely grateful if you would support our current production, TUNE BACK (time), with a donation starting July 1, 2026, and we hope that the numerous exclusive rewards we’ve put together for you will serve as an additional incentive.
+++ Campaign launch: July 1, 2026 +++
