All Night Turkey at the Shrub Farm 
We are just back from a rather strange, but quite enjoyable, all-night Turkish-themed festival held at 
La Ferme du Buisson in Noisiel, a few miles east of Paris. As well as "displays" of Turkish fortune-telling and Turkish börek-making, theatre spaces hosted dance works, including three by Aydin Teker: STKH (for which we composed the score), Trio and Momentum. Audience numbers were very respectable, especially given that STKH and Momentum were performed at around 2am...The stage was shared with a superb performance of the piece Dolap by taldans, featuring Mustafa Kaplan, Filiz Sizanli and a heavily sellotaped fridge-freezer.(Unless informed otherwise, I'm assuming that the video screen in the photograph is showing some suitably Turkish footage of Taksim, İstanbul on a Friday night.)
