Hartmut Abendschein: TetrisYoga™
Hartmut Abendschein is a writer and publisher based in Bern (Switzerland). His edition taberna kritika focusses on experimental, conceptual and visual literature. This is also where his artistic practice as an author is based. TetrisYoga™ has just been published by Timglaset Editions, following asemic walks, a couple of years ago. Besides being curation tools in the form of visual poetry, these are examples of conceptual, interdisciplinary approaches to combining materials and ideas that can be starting points for further explorative writing as well as audio text production.

TetrisYoga™ is a visual poetry card set. It also helps you to easily put together individual yoga sessions, constellate audio works (e.g. with samplers or soundboards) in a controlled manner or organise texts or text objects according to nameable patterns. The aleatoric use of TetrisYoga™ is conceivable wherever abstract grids are experimented with. It contains:

1 Title card,
31 TetrisYoga™ poses cards,
1 Empty grid card (for own ideas),
2 Elements / functions cards 1 Imprint card.

The Weave Reader is a card game for one or more players. It is a life-guidance game, no more mystical, and no less so, than life itself. The game is a tool to trace and interpret events, feelings, changes, and the different paths you have taken, are now on, or that you might take. As you draw cards, an image of a circle emerges, and a text is spelled out. The cards are then read and interpreted in relation to your life: past, present, or future. There is no winning or losing in this game; the objective is to read and interpret the varied and connected threads of the weave of life.
