The painting is projected on a white screen covering the whole backdrop of the stage.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#ffffff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#ffffff;"&gt;In front of the painting, a figure clad in white with its back turned towards the audience. It’s wearing a thin white cloth which doesn’t cover the front of the body. The audience can’t see that the figure is naked under the cloth and if it’s a man or a woman until the end of the performance. The voice shouldn’t tell if it’s a man or a woman who’s delivering the text. Alternative 1: a naked man with an androgynous appearance; alternative 2: a naked woman with a boyish appearance. If alternative 2 is chosen some minor changes most be done in the text.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#ffffff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#ffffff;"&gt;During the whole performance the stage floor is covered by naked men and women copulating, caressing, male on male, female on female - now and then these actors will make themselves heard through kisses, moans and sighs - sensual pleasure, cries of pain. The bodies are enclosed in a blue-black-light which gives the impression of water and the ocean. Choreography - the bodies move like waves.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#ffffff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#ffffff;"&gt;+ + +&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#ffffff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#ffffff;"&gt;Sappho, when you died&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#ffffff;"&gt;Everything that was you&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#ffffff;"&gt;Perished.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#ffffff;"&gt;You were&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#ffffff;"&gt;Dead dead dead.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#ffffff;"&gt;You are&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#ffffff;"&gt;Death.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#ffffff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#ffffff;"&gt;Why lie: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#ffffff;"&gt;Wie froh bin ich,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#ffffff;"&gt;Das ich weg bin! 1a)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#ffffff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#ffffff;"&gt;What is a human heart?

Aber Don Quichote und Sisyphos zählen nun mal zu meinen wenigen Helden. Seit etwa zehn Jahren huldigen Martin Bladh, zuständig für Gesang und Artwork, und Erik Jarl, der bei IRM für den Krach sorgt, in Norrköping etwas, was ihnen als Ästhetik der Schreckens noch nicht ausgereizt scheint. Titel wie An Act Of Self Mutilation Is An Act Of Freedom oder ‚Sebastian‘ (auf The Cult Of The Young Men) lassen mich vermuten, dass ich an der postindustrialen S/M-Front keine neuen Entwicklungen versäumt habe.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;IRM hat sich für Indications of Nigredo (Seger 23, 12") mit dem Bassisten Mikael Oretoft verstärkt, der Jarls Knurschelektronik mit dunklen Twangs durchsetzt. Vor dieser sich langsam aufbauenen Wall of Sound wirken Bladhs Einwürfe seltsam dünn u&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_efmHcUy6HOc/SK7r_aGfzmI/AAAAAAAACyg/I8mvCOupA5Q/s1600-h/A.Bladh.Bad+Alchemy.Omslag+jpeg.jpg"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#ffffff;"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5237382891249323618" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_efmHcUy6HOc/SK7r_aGfzmI/AAAAAAAACyg/I8mvCOupA5Q/s200/A.Bladh.Bad+Alchemy.Omslag+jpeg.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;nd wie kastriert. Der grusig harsche Noise kommt als gnadenloses Mahlwerk ins Rollen, die Stimme klingt immer gequälter und panischer. Wieder gefasst, stellt sich Bladh einem zweiten Härtetest und verliest die Versuchsanordnung. Dann überdröhnt und umflattert ihn ‚Indicator 2‘, ein Sturm aus Noise und Eis, unter dessen Pfeilhagel er sich als Hl. Sebastian windet. Beatkaskaden und zeitlupiges Bassgedröhn geben der Inszenierung einen rituellen Anstrich. Bladh schreit wie am Spieß Parolen, um anschließend seine Wunden zu lecken. Ist der wirkliche Name des jungen Mannes Narziss? Oder Marsyas?&lt;br /&gt;Beim Versuch, mir ein Bild zu machen, stieß ich auf Bladhs &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;Werkstudien zu Francis Bacon, Heliogabalus und Gilles de Rais, mit denen er Performances von Bo Cavefors‘ Teater Dekadens visualisierte (eingefangen auf M. Bladh &amp;amp; Bo I Cavefors Three studies for a crucifixion, Firework Edition Records, FEV1008/FER1070, DVD + CD, die wie bestellt in meinem Briefkasten landete). Die Kollaboration geht einher mit einem Manifest, das ein ‚Neues Theater der Grausamkeit‘ ankündigt (nachzulesen auf &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://sadojapan.blogspot.com/"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;http://sadojapan.blogspot.com/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;). Zwischen dionysischer Verschwendung und der Desinvoltura von Ernst Jüngers ‚&lt;/span&gt;Anarchen‘ wird das Ungenormte und das ‚Agere Contra‘ gefeiert. Ernst Jünger? Mein Interesse wuchs. Die Musik, die Bladh &amp;amp; Jarl zum ‚Passionsspiel‘ über Francis Bacon und dessen morbider Faszination durch Schlachtvieh und Verkehrsopfer generierten, ist anfänglich ruhig, nur ein gebändigter Orgeldrone, kristallin übersprenkelt. Cavefors liest dazu, The Miracle‘, ein Lehrstück über einen frechen Straßenköter, der gesteinigt wird, Anfang einer Kette von Selektionen, mit denen die Anständigen und Braven sich von Parasiten, Störenfrieden, Aussätzigen und Bastarden säubern. Der Drone durchbohrt auch den langen Mittelteil der Three Studies for a Crucification, lange nur monoton, dann zunehmend hochtourig wie eine Turbine. Vereinzelt erklingen metallische Schläge, die sich zu einem schweren Dingdong einpendeln, während die Maschine spitze Obertöne sirrt. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;Der dritte Teil besteht in hellerem Sirrklang und wieder silbrigem Geriesel, Cavefors liest nun, wieder paradox nüchtern und unpathetisch, ‚Revolt in the Kasbah‘, einen Text, der die Parias und ‚Wild Boys‘ aller Länder zu Orgie und Exzess unter der Schwarzen Fahne und dem Banner de Sades aufruft und dazu, der Gesellschaft den Rücken zu kehren. Danach schwillt der Noise an zu einem finalen Elektronensturm, durchschrillt von wild gewordenen Dudelsäcken und hyperventilierenden Furien.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Es war an der Zeit, mit dem Künstler selber Kontakt aufzunehmen und einige Aspekte des Faszinosums zu beleuchten. Martin Bladh hat auf meine Fragen am 30.6.2008 geantwortet.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;BA: Your work is a unity of sound, lyrics, vision &amp;amp; body (Vienna Actionism, Theatre of Orgies and Mysteries). Are You seeking for a synthesis of art &amp;amp; life, or how are Your talents and passions related? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;MB: To me it is absolutely necessary that art and life frequently overlap each other. If you’re passionate about something you carry it with you 24 hours a day. I think it’s very important for artists to dare to be pretentious; you can’t make art as a hobby or a nine to five work. Then I wouldn’t go that far as to state, like several silly Fluxus-artists have done, that drinking a cup of coffee or blow air into a balloon is art and thereby important. It’s always a hard and exhaustive struggle for an artist to look for and settle on his chosen medium. Only because you’re a good draughtsman doesn’t necessary make you a good artist. Music was my first artistic outlet, but after a couple of years it seemed futile for several of the ideas I nurtured. I then turned to painting, writing, performance etc. and still I haven’t been able to restrict myself to one media. So, yes I’m interested in a work that spans over several different mediums and thereby works as a synthesis on different levels and senses. I guess Wagner and Nitsch have helped me to legitimise this whole idea of the Gesamtkunstwerk. This way of working is very important to me, and has helped me enormously when I’ve tried to pin down my obsessions and special interests.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BA: If You had to go back in time for a ‘Self-portrait of M. B. as a young monkey’ (to steal from another M. B., Michel Butor), when and how did it dawn on You that You are… different, maudit, an - artist?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;MB: When I passed on from being a mere listener and observer to being creative. At a certain point (probably by the beginning of the millennium) I decided that I didn’t want to dedicate my life to someone else’s work. Certainly, after IRM had recorded Oedipus Dethroned [2000], I thought that I had something going that I wanted to dig deeper into and would take years to exhaust. A couple of years later when I first saw my own vision materialised in the flesh, I got quite exited cause this was an image I’ve been thinking of for years. The action work Sensation is Everything was of great importance to me (although I don’t fashion it as one of my better pieces today).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;Mit Bo I. Cavefors (*1935) begegnet einem jemand, der vom Enfant terrible bis zum‚ unwürdigen Greis’ eine gradlinige Biographie des Verfemten vorgelebt hat. Ob als Verleger, Autobiograph oder Essayist, mit Cavefors hat das Heterogene eine erste Adresse in Lund. In den 60er-80er Jahren hatte er unermüdlich anarchische, anrüchige, pataphysische, psychoanalytische und revolutionäre Literatur publiziert (Burroughs, Dali, Jünger, Lautréamont, Mao, Nietzsche, Pasolini, Pound, A. &amp;amp; P. Weiss…), bis der Skandal um RAFTexte&lt;br /&gt;zum Bankrott und Schweizer Exil des Verlags führte. Seit den 90ern sorgt er für Skandal mit seiner Textreihe Svarta Fanor, ein Name, in dem neben der Drapeau Noir der Anarchie auch Strindbergs Schwarze Fahnen mitschwingen, und mit dem Teater Dekadens, das Nitschs Mysterientheater abwandelt zu Exerzitien des Verfemten. Ich sage bewusst ‚Exerzitien’, denn Ignatius von Loyola ist mit seinem ‚Agere Contra’ ein unwahrscheinlicher, aber wesentlicher Stichwortgeber für Cavefors ‚politische Theologie’.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;Cavefors‘ ‚unmöglicher’ Horizont, für den man sich hierzulande eine Fusion aus März Verlag und Matthes &amp;amp; Seitz vorstellen müsste, verbindet Ideen der Konservativen Revolution und des Heroischen Nihilismus mit der Spiritualität der Kartäuser und erotischer Verausgabung. Ernst Jüngers ‚Anarch’ (aus Der Waldgang) ist der Heros einer Souveränität, die Carl Schmitts diktatorische Definition ‚Souverän ist, wer über den Ausnahmezustand entscheidet’ (d. h. wer den Notstand ausrufen und mit Polizei und Militär jeden Widerstand platt machen kann) mit Bataille’schen Vorzeichen anarchisch umkehrt: Souverän ist, wer gegen die Normierungsgewalten um jeden Preis seinen persönlichen Ausnahmezustand lebt.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;BA: The emphasis on excess and enjoyment at any cost, what You call ‘sexual absolutism’, and the motto: Agere contra (to act against) seem to contradict the ‘desinvoltura’ of Ernst Jünger’s ‘Anark’, another heroic model of Yours, whose attitude is to resist power by ignoring it? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;MB: My work is full of contradictions. But I cannot really see the contradiction between the Jüngerian Anark and the supreme libertine. Although I respect Jünger’s work I can’t really say he’s been that influential on my part, the manifesto was written in collaboration with Bo Cavefors. I myself have nurtured a project which I used to call The New Theatre of Cruelty and Bo got his own project called Theatre Decadence. Bo is a huge admirer of Jünger and he was one of the first to introduce his work to the Swedish audience in the sixties. The main reason for quoting him was to illustrate how we don’t care about the political movements of today, and thus through our theatre feel ourselves liberated from them. As stated our agere contra is a very personal one and has nothing to do with a collective utopian following, it has to do with being aware of the world, but ignoring it and thereby act against it; to live inside a society but at the same time be able to live outside of it. I don’t see this as a heroic act but a necessary one. Communication is what it is, and foremost directly related to our own carnal desire, exhibitionism and narcissism, masochism and sadism.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;Martin Bladh (*1976) macht als Maler und „‚bad boy’ of Swedish performance art" den Exzess des Ausnahmezustands sichtbar. Die Klinge, die in seinem Namen aufblitzt, nimmt es als Skalpell, um Körper zu vivisezieren, um Blut fließen zu lassen, um zu kastrieren oder gar den Kopf zu amputieren. Das Wort wird Fleisch, das sich selbst in einem Kult der Acéphalie einem kopflosen Gott opfert, oder dem Dionysos zagreus, dem zerrissenen Gott. Oder sich einem obszön-idiotischen ‚Genießen’ (Jouissance) hingibt? Versucht hier Kunst durch Blut und Schmerz wieder etwas Sakrales zu kommunizieren? Lässt sich Unmittelbarkeit (zu einer ‚göttlichen’ Wahrheit oder Wirklichkeit hinter dem Buchstaben und Bildern?) wiedergewinnen, wenn man seine Unversehrtheit preisgibt und ‚außer sich’ gerät&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;BA: Many of Your motifs (like Isaac, Oedipus, Jesus, Sebastian, de Rais, Jack the Ripper…) are about violence in a sado-masochistic vexation of offender and victim, of the sacred &amp;amp; the infame. How does this recurrence of the body as battleground of pain &amp;amp; lust relate to our more and more virtual and abstract times?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;MB: Discourses such as sex and violence are of great importance to me. And all the names you mentioned are more or less archetypical examples of these discourses combined. They are icons, some of them considered holy, some infamous, but I also think that all of them have a pornographic quality which I&lt;br /&gt;find to be very seductive. And this is very obvious, when looking at how they’re depicted in today’s media and arts. These "characters" and there tragic or heroic destinies are also important as mirror images which I can superimpose onto myself, as both the victim and aggressor. I’m not making a political statement on art or media, my work is all about me, my taste and obsessions.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;BA: Am I wrong, or is there also an oxymoronic mixture, or undissolved tension of ‘hot’/organic/red (flesh, blood, cry) vs. ‘cold’/anorganic/black (machine noise, skull, razorblade) in Your work?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;MB: You’re absolutely right. The paradoxical marriage between life and death fascinates me enormously. I wouldn’t take it as far as to say that I try to illustrate the Freudian death drive versus the pleasure principle struggle, but this kind of contradiction is very dear to me; the aggressive sex drive and the programmed inner yearning for an inorganic state. The relation between love and hate, masochism and sadism, the cold razor and the warm flesh. A piece is only successful if it got the power to unnerve me and seduce me at the same time.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;Wird man nur in der konsequenten Imitatio Christi auf der Schlachtbank oder am Kreuz selbst zum Gotteskind? Geht es – nur anders gesagt - um alchemistische Transmutation - nigredo(Schwärzung) – albedo (Weißung) – rubedo (Rötung) - , durch den Sonnen-Anus (Sol niger) zur Reinigung der Seele von ihren leprösen Schwefelanteilen, zur Erleuchtung und Vereinigung mit dem Unbegrenzten? Statt einer unmöglichen Subversion Perversion, statt einer Transmutation der Welt die Transmutation des Einzelnen?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;BA: An IRM album is called Indications of Nigredo, and there seem to be alchemical motifs in the Heliogabalus cycle too. Or rather motifs of the Apocalypse, when even kings and bishops will be fodder for swine and wolves?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;MB: First of all, I’m not a religious man. I’ve used esoterica in a metaphorical way, somewhat in the same way as Jung, and to point out contradictions; the marriage of the opposites etc. Although, religious and mythical themes tend to&lt;br /&gt;fascinate me, and especially the alchemical state of Nigredo has been influential. The "apocalyptic" illustrations from the Heliogabalus cycle are referring&lt;br /&gt;to the bodyguards‘ dismembering of the queer emperor.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;Oder geht es um einen (männlichen) Geburtsakt, durch Kaiserschnitt oder einen Schnitt, der die Nabelschnur zum jämmerlich Irdischen durchtrennt? Bladhs erstes Soloalbum Umbilical Cords (Segerhuva, 2005), auf dt. ‚Nabelschnüre’, ist eine Phantasie über das Hineingeborenwerden in den ‚lebendigen Tod’ (Artaud). Kunst gibt sich als neue Gnosis weltverächtlich, als Abführmittel, als ‚Purgatorium der Sinne’ (R. Schwarzkogler). Man hört ungut schleifende, grollende Mäander, Bass und Cymbals gestrichen, untergründig leicht melodiös, aber nach Außen hin eine schlecht geölte Dröhnmaschine, und gegen Ende, von einer Gitarre monoton beschrammelt, den verhuschten Singsang: The body is a screamer. Was er wohl schreit, so erfüllt vom Geist der Schwere und der Bitterkeit? Aus der Tiefe zu dir rufen wir bedrängte Kinder dein? Von was will diese Kunst reinigen? Vom Geist? Von der Bitterkeit? Von der Restsüße, die uns sinnlich fesselt? Was will da oder will da nicht ans Licht?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;BA: The ‘part maudit’, the ‘accursed share’ in Your work seems to be the (male) body, often as a split cadavre, more often headless (acephalos), or mutilated / castrated. Is the body and especially the Male Sex part of the problem, or part of a solution?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;MB: I don’t see it neither as a problem or a solution. It’s matter of personal taste and obsession, in the end everything comes down to the human flesh, it’s all that matters. A work of art has to be centred round the body to hold any real interest to me at all, and often so, the mutilated male body (my own or a stranger‘s). What I seek and what I’m trying to manifest (on paper or in the flesh) is a personal depiction of sensation, a strong sensual and aesthetic form of exaltation. The headless body is foremost a way to get rid of the obvious connection to my own person, to make the work more vague and suggestive: an anonymous flesh. The wounded genitals are the most obvious and symbolical way to impersonate the crippled and futile body, and what a wonderful seductive picture it is.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;Was machen die ‚Three Studies for a Cruzification’, ‚Dead Ringer 2’ oder ‚Matt. 5:29-30’ aus dem Betrachter? Fromme Meditierer eines erlösenden Mysteriums? Voyeure eines Spektakels, an dem sich die Lüstern-Faszinierten von den Angeekelt-Faszinierten und Täter-(empowerment) von Opferidentifikation (victimisation) scheiden? Im Gegensatz zu Carl Abrahamsson halte ich es für wahrscheinlicher, dass gerade auch die Geduckten und Ängstlichen aufs Mattäusevangeliums pfeifen (Wenn dich dein rechtes Auge zum Bösen verführt, dann reiß es aus und wirf es weg!) und lieber abgebrüht glotzen, als in die Haut des Gepeinigten zu schlüpfen. Dass man sich mit der Grausamkeit statt dem Leiden solidarisiert (R. Rorty), ist für die ‚Ich-bin-doch-nicht-blöd’-Mehrheit mit Rückenwind durch das Mehr-Gags-mehr-Sex-mehr-Gewalt-Postulat keine Frage, Opfer sind blöd, sind etwas, auf das man tritt und spuckt, Hannibal Lector und Jigsaw dagegen Kult. Bladh gibt dem Opfer, dem Kadaver, wieder eine Aura des Heiligen, auch wenn, wie bei Bacon, die Kreuze vor einem gottlosen Horizont stehen.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;BA: There is always the human weakness to identify with the aggressor or the aggressive, which makes Industrial, Harsh Noise or Black Metal etc. so attractive as camouflage for sissies. What is Your artistic angle in this dilemma?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;MB: I’ve never been interested in provocation, or breaking taboos just for the sake of it. The people you’re referring to use these "extreme" subject matters as a legal and safe outlet for inner urges and fantasies which they don’t dare to step further into. They never go beyond a certain point, and that in the end makes their work futile and uninteresting. I don’t think I ever ventured into this small minded "sadistic" area myself; I’m equally interested in the victim’s role as the executioner’s.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;BA: As poet &amp;amp; voice of IRM You are delivering Your heart on Your tongue. Articulating phobias, spitting words about martyrium &amp;amp; katharsis, suffering &amp;amp; self-mutilation, about an unnamed desease or wound. On Four Studies for Crucification (2002) You called the desease ‘time infection’. Is it mortality itself?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;MB: Yes in this case I think your remark is accurate. The disease might be seen as life itself, the human body; this great exhilarating and obnoxious disease. At the moment I’m involved in a collaborative project with Swedish artist Stefan Danielsson, in which I rework old IRM lyrics and present them along side his beautiful collages. It will be very interesting to see someone else animate these words. And the lyrics for the piece you mentioned were actually used as a starting point for this project.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BA: Your paintings are like illustrations to A. Artaud’s &gt;Heliogabalus: Or, the Crowned Anarchist&lt;, or to Georges Bataille. But if asked to illustrate something unexpected, what would You choose to visualize? MB: The series of collage paintings, or work studies as I call them myself, all deal with specific subject matters and illustrate the three dramas Three Studies for a Crucifixion; Heliogabalus and Gilles de Rais which I’ve written as a collaboration with Cavefors. I recently did some single illustrations for Huysmans En Rade [1887, dt. Auf Reede] and Hermann Ungar’s The Maimed [Die Verstümmelten, 1923] on demand for a Swedish publication. But I would never illustrate a work that doesn’t hold any interest to me.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;+ + + + +&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#ffffcc;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Bad Alchemy Magazine&lt;br /&gt;#59/08&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hmmm Dämon - Bidner &amp;amp; Martinek, Meese &amp;amp; Feuerstein (Dämonologische und ludologische Überlegungen); Martin Bladhs Theater der Grausamkeit; Joyful Noise - Taktlos 2008 (von GZ); 25 Jahre 'Musique Action' (von Bernd Weber); Party Intellectuals - Ceramic Dog live; A Potent Brew - Sean Noonan's Brewed By Noon; If You Like Armaggedon - Evangelista (von M.

Non-norms are, that’s our belief, the normal-reality and the norms are the real morbid, hokey, obtruded, the non-worthy. Howe’er, our actions are no and never outcries against the norm-society and it’s seers; we waive face-downs. We have no political declarations. We manifest how the abasement can be handled when we convert it to enjoyment and sexual absolutism and exhibitionism and a strict acceptation of it’s most profounded consequences, sperm, blood, whips. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cccccc;"&gt;Our first action/performance, related to Francis Bacon, Three Studies for a crucifixion, is followed by actions about the Roman paederast Heliogabalus and Gilles de Rais, the mediavel-boylover, the virtiuoso and aesthetican.
