Together with João de Bruçó, musician and Veronika Dirnhofer, visual artist, the performers create images and spaces and play with conventional logic: an ordinary visit turns into an absurd situation and everyday objects are taken out of their logical context. Distortions happen unexpectedly and often unnoticed. An inflatable object by the visual artist Veronika Dirnhofer offers a sculptural space for transformation. The starting point for this concept was Martin Auer's story "The colourful sky - The twisted world":
"When Alexandra found the book of magic, she read a spell for twisting the world. Alexandra said the spell and the world twisted around. Humans walked on their hands, dogs waged their muzzle, the apple tree grew pears, fish flew through the sky, birds swam through the water, and the hens lay square eggs. When Alexandra had finished laughing, she looked for a spell to change the world back. But there was none."
