Together with actor and film critic Tanja Vrvilo he heads the DB Indo\u0161 Extreme Musical Theatre, whose frequently incomprehensible but never less than hypnotic performances mix performance art, contemporary dance and washes of deliriously squeaky-scratchy abstract music. Indo\u0161\u2019s pieces often involve a degree of narrative theatre (2010 production <em>Cefas<\/em> was built around quotes from the diaries of early 20th-century anarchists) although those who understand neither the Croatian language nor the cultural context will still find much to enjoy. In spring 2012 Indo\u0161 picked up the T-HT Prize (Croatia\u2019s version of the Turner Prize) for displaying his Schachtophone (\u0161ahtofon), a metal console with a row of cylinders sunk into it \u2013 inside the cylinders are a mixture of clanking metal bits and boing-producing springs. \u2018Kriegspiel\u2019 presents a version of chess based on Von Clausewitz theory of warfare and Napoleon\u2019s specific campaigns. Although the patent of \u2018Kriegspiel\u2019 did not become more popular than chess, in tight circles it remained a fascinating example of a combination of game and theoretical insights. Damir Bartol Indo\u0161 has been for decades a unique phenomenon in the local performing scene, gazing into the horizon of philosophy and performance outcomes. Regardless of whether the priority is the movement, gesture, music or text, his pieces were always a game, and everything that is much more serious than the game. Hydraulic, water-powered versions of the Schachtophone were used in Indo\u0161 and Vrvilo\u2019s 2012 production <em>Water Wars<\/em>, which dramatized the growing scarcity of water around the globe through a combination of gloriously dissonant music, shouty texts and accompanying videos.<\/p><p><strong>Water war a new play by artistic team: Damir Bartol Indo\u0161 and Tanja Vrvilo \/ Music Biennale Zagreb 2012 &#8211; Newsletter<\/strong><br \/>A new play by the artistic team: Damir Bartol Indo\u0161 and Tanja Vrvilo, Water War, in the production of DB Indo\u0161 extreme music theatre, in co-production of Theatre &amp;TD and Perforations Festival, will be premiered in the second part of June in Cinema of the Student Centre.In addition to the mental hygiene, one of the constants of Indo\u0161\u2019s work is ecology. Water issues \u2013 a media essential for sustainability of all life, are here treated as a political as well as an artistic issue. Citing the source material for the reflection: W. Reich, V. \u010cerina, F. Bertini, V. Shiva, A. Olivera Foronda, G. Deleuze &amp; F. Guattari, G. Bachelard, K. Whittfogel, G. Petrovi\u0107, and Gang of Four slipped through the musical machines: \u0161ahtofon, will bring new images and associations. Indo\u0161\u2019s \u0161ahtofon was also presented at a musical performance Kriegspiel (Game of War), premiered at the 26th Music Biennale Zagreb in 2011.<br \/>The team of authors together with Damir Bartol Indo\u0161 and Tanja Vrvilo (hydraulic \u0161ahtofonija), also include: Ana Husman (film and video images), Ivan Maru\u0161i\u0107 Klif (surveillance cameras and sound). The performance was accomplished with the support of: Ministry of Culture, the Office for Culture Zagreb and with the support of the IPA of the European Union.<\/p><p><strong>&#8220;Water War&#8221;<\/strong><br \/>Damir Bartol Indo\u0161, a legend of the Croatian performance scene, in collaboration with Tanja Vrvilo created the \u201eWater War\u201c focusing on one of the most important elements in the functioning of the human body, and for maintaining life on Earth at all: water. Water, like all other natural resources, slowly becomes a commodity in many parts of the world and is increasingly privately owned by powerful corporations, causing riots and various &#8220;war games&#8221;. According to some of the predictions, the wars of 21st century will be led because of the water. Indo\u0161 and Vrvilo treat water as a political and artistic issue through natural and emotional deserts, inspired by many revolts against the privatization of water in the Bolivian city of Cochabamba and card controlled access to water in southern Africa.<\/p><p><strong>26th Music Biennale Zagreb, 2011, Kriegspiel<\/strong><br \/>When, in 1977, Guy Debord and his partner Alice Becker-Ho began to play their version of chess based on Von Clausewitz\u2019s theory of warfare and the specific campaigns of Napoleon, the world was a different place than it is today. Debord\u2019s patented \u2018Kriegspiel\u2019 did not became more popular than chess, though at first it was also expected to overtake Monopoly, but in small social circles, is still considered a fascinating combination of game and theoretical insights. Each match of this game is a kind of performance \u2013 something that Damir Bartol Indo\u0161 knows very well. In this new production from The House of Extreme Musical Theatre, which borrows the name of Debord\u2019s invention, Indo\u0161 and Tanja Vrvilo repeat 55 moves in a game from 1977, and this consecration of the father of society of spectacle leads to an anti-spectacle in their distinctive style. Accompanied by unrestrained electronic music by Helge Hinteregger, the performers do battle with models and words, pronouncing Latin and Sanskrit palindromes. A living legend of Croatian alternative theatre, Damir Bartol Indo\u0161 has, for a few decades already, been a truly unique phenomenon not only on the domestic performance scene. Looking to the horizons of the philosophy and origins of performance, he builds his performance strategy around impossibility of political engagement. Regardless of whether they are primarily movement, gesture, music or text, his works are always both games, and at the same time, far more serious.<\/p><p><strong>Damir Bartol Indo\u0161 won the first prize on the 5th T-HT award@msu.hr<\/strong><br \/>\u201eBetween the man and the nature has grown a new reality \u2013 the world of the machine\u201c, this are the words that Ka\u0161telan has written in the preface of the catalogue for the exhibition in the Gallery of the Contemporary Art that was organized for the occasion of the 1st Music Biennale Zagreb. Damir Bartol Indo\u0161 &amp; Helge Hinteregger in the music performance Kreigspiel (Game of War) that had its premiere performance at the 26th Music Biennale Zagreb, continued the mission of the shifting the borders between different art disciplines. And the recent \u0161ahtofon or how the author calls it Musical machine or collective assemblage as if it is the echo of the \u201cpulse\u201d of the words by Ka\u0161telan..

It should be noted that Zlatko Buri\u0107 Ki\u0107o and Damir Bartol Indo\u0161 originate from Kugla Glumi\u0161te (1975 &#8211; 1981\/1982) with its alternative music-theatre energies. It is a known fact that instruments in shows and performances by Damir Bartol Indo\u0161 are made of recycled materials or civilization waste, thereby functioning as sound installations or, as their author calls them, spiritually recycled garbage.<br \/>Thus, in the performances called Kriegspiel \/ War Game (2011) and Water War (2012), the performing duo Damir Bartol Indo\u0161 \u2013 Tanja Vrvilo introduced a \u201cmusical machine\u201d or \u201ccollective assemblage\u201d called Schachtophone (literally translatable as \u201cmanholephone\u201d). Art historians have associated performances on that sound sculpture with the prepared piano of John Cage (1938), as well as some of the sound performances by George Brecht. Indo\u0161\u2019s sound installation consists of springs, manhole covers, car lights, microphones, and surveillance cameras, and is presently preserved at the Museum of Contemporary Arts, where it tells the story of its concept of becoming a human Schachtophone, as well as the evolution of the idea of schizophony, created by separating sound and image from their source as yet another mode of rebellion against the heteronomy of the society. The sound sculpture Orgonic Schachtophone is an integral part of the shows\/performances Kriegspiel \/ War Game (2011) and Water War (2012) \u2013 D.B. Indo\u0161 \/ House of Extreme Music Theatre \u2013 Kugla, by authors and performers: Damir Bartol Indo\u0161 and Tanja Vrvilo.\u00a0<br \/>&#8220;It is a Schachtophon model that we call &#8216;Orgonic Schachtophon&#8217;. It is organic because of having been inspired by Wilhelm Reich and his discovery of organ, as well as its practical application through the construction of organic accumulators. Our Schachtophon construction consists of magnets adhering to various metals which are used according to Reich&#8217;s classification of good metals &#8211; zinged tin in the form of a tin lavabo saved from decay, iron nets, and two manhole covers, and inside the lavabo there are two iron ribs with three bass guitar strings animated by means of a magnetic plate. On the upper surface, there are two magnetic columns arranged in a palindrome-like manner, creating drops of magnetic rain when falling onto the Schachtophon construction. The phonic effect is not produced internally, but externally, by means of vibrations: on the one hand through a spring attached to the mouth of the tin bucket on one end and to the frame of the Schachtophon on the other, creating a flow of &#8220;water&#8221; that has spring-like qualities, and on the other hand the spring holds together the ribs with tin lungs, which are in contact with the Schachtophon and the sprinted budget by means of vibrations. This establishes an interaction of flowing sound water, emitted from one sound sculpture to another, then to a third one, and back again, and that process is operated by a female Schachtophonist and a male Schachtophonist. By filling the tin lavabo with sound water, by irrigating it, we work on moistening the emotional deserts that we create within ourselves in various circumstances of our everyday life.&#8221; <em>(from an e-mail by Damir Bartol Indo\u0161).<\/em><\/p><p>A Schachtophone is a spring musical machine which secret is in collective assemblage of horizontally and vertically strained springs of different length and thickness attached to the inside of the manhole structure for transfering vibration of hands and springs. Interactive audio-visual sculpture Schachtophone, an extreme chamber music for two, four, six and eight hands, evokes the prepared piano and, out of a motionless state becomes active by hands touching the springs, pulling, twitching and vibrating of the springs or moving the instrument itself, which produces a silent schachtophonia.<br \/>A number of body parts and its organs takes part in a schachtophonic performance \u2013 in relatively short time units, the schachtophonist becomes at the same time a sound body, without and with the organs- foot right legs becomes pedal rhythm, index fingers of both hands navigators counting and monitoring lines of visual audio information coming into the largest closeness of cooperation with the eyes and brain, connection hoses lungs throat products drawn vote, torso and head are constantly swinging and are tapped from both ears, fingers of both hands looking for a pinch sound spring, catching and pulling, closing and opening alternated through performance coloristic graphic scores.<br \/>The graphic content plays with graphics warning nuclear threat and the differencies that it establishes are in the intensities of their sonority \u2013 a large triangle for loud vibration of the spring and loud voice, a small triangle for silent spring vibration and silent voice. The scores are vocal-instrumental, word cuts for sound cuts and sound cuts for word cuts. Between picture colored icons appear in numbers that determine the pause between vibration voice and steel spiral.<\/p><p><strong>Wundergrund festival 2015 Copenhagen is organised by: SNYK \u2013\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.snyk.dk\/\"><strong>www.snyk.dk<\/strong><\/a><br \/>Behind Mao Tze are distinctive figures such as the actor and performance artist Zlatko Buri\u0107,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/sorenkjaergaard.com\/\">S\u00f8ren Kj\u00e6rgaard<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=WSQeLrVLOFE\">Henning Frimann<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=jD9jqgvfkY0\">Dragana Milutinovi\u0107<\/a> in a powerful interaction with the artists <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=DKRm_SDber4\">Tanja Vrvilo<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.perforacije.org\/base\/?portfolio=damir-bartol-indos-tanja-vrvilo\">Damir Bartol<\/a> from Croatian <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=DKRm_SDber4\">D.B.
