Cast out of Europe, young Karl Roßmann arrives in America, a world both ending and beginning, where forgotten people search for meaning in merciless systems. At the Gorki, Sebastian Baumgarten reassembles Kafka's fragmented novel into a collage of text, sound, and image that explores powerlessness, irony, and the struggle to say "no." (source: Gorki.de)

Henrik Ibsen's Peer Gynt begins with a lie – and never stops questioning what's real and what's imagined. Peer escapes the poverty of his youth through stories, fantasies, and reinventions: as a traveler, emperor, prophet, and scoundrel. In restless search of his "true self," he crosses deserts and oceans, only to remain lost in his own illusions. (source: residenztheater.de)

In a world where science was dominated by men, Rosalind Franklin captured Photograph 51—the image that unlocked the double helix of DNA. Anna Ziegler's Photograph 51 is a poetic, sharp exploration of ambition, rivalry, and the overlooked brilliance of a woman whose work changed history. A play about recognition, legacy, and the cost of being right too soon. (source: teatarvuk.rs)

Čudo u Šarganu, written by Ljubomir Simović and directed by Marko Torlaković, explores a community trapped between myth and reality, haunted by war, poverty, and loss. Torlaković uses this poetic drama to confront the ongoing collapse of dignity and justice in post-transition Serbia. In his own words: "There are no miracles. You have to create them—and fight for them." (source: npsombor.co.rs)

In a decaying provincial town in the Southeast, chaos breaks loose when news spreads of a mysterious inspector's arrival. Paranoia, corruption, and absurdity swirl together in a region where reality already borders on the surreal. With biting satire and sharp wit, Revizor za Jugoistok reimagines Gogol's classic through Basara's distinct lens, exposing the tangled mechanics of power and pretense in the post-Yugoslav landscape. Directed by Marko Torlaković.

Prepared Nature of the City reimagines John Cage's prepared piano through urban sound. Instead of physical objects, digital effects built in MaxMSP "prepare" environmental audio, triggered wirelessly by sculptural pedals using Arduino and Bluetooth. The work also serves as a critique of Belgrade's gentrification, where public parks and historic buildings are transformed under the pretext of progress—masking corruption and erasing the city's cultural memory.

Sonoentropy is a performative sound installation that reflects on themes of decay, decomposition, and the transience of life. Rooted in the artist's personal confrontation with ephemerality, the work draws on the concept of entropy to create a sonic metaphor for disintegration. By using thermosensors, the installation links sound to temperature, applying the principles of thermodynamics to shape an evolving soundscape that mirrors the natural processes of breakdown and transformation.

This experimental radio play is an homage to Cascando—Samuel Beckett's little-known radio drama, originally created for French Radio and later adapted by Radio Belgrade. Inspired by Beckett's exploration of the limits of language and the tension between words and music, the work treats sound as a narrative force.

Composition for Cello and Ableton Live is an experimental performance developed in collaboration with the Faculty of Dramatic Arts and the Faculty of Music in Belgrade. The piece explores the sonic possibilities of the cello through live looping, feedback delays, pitch shifting, and real-time granular synthesis using Ableton Live and Max/MSP. Multiple microphones—including contact mics—were used to capture a wide range of textures, each routed through custom-designed FX chains.
