Ein Schlagerherz schlägt zu
2026
Shortopera for soprano, bass, actress and ensemble (15')
Once upon a time, there was a pop singer named Andy Borg who sang into the microphone the wrong way round while lip-syncing, and who became immortalised online with the ‘mikrofon-umdreher’ (microphone-turner) meme. 300 years after the downfall of humanity, an AI uses the meme file to breed a new global population. With Andy Cyborg as the new human being and pop song lyrics setting the pace, technocratic dystopia meets absurd satire.
