Annamaria Kowalsky über ihre Sozialisierung als Musikerin, und die Freiheit die später kam

Kevo and me talked to Annamaria Kowalsky, a musician and contemporary composer, who also pursues photography, painting and further media.
Annamaria talked about learning to play the violin, her orchestra socialization and experiences, and how composition gave her freedom.

This was the first time we recorded a conversation in front of an audience — in my studio.

Jasmin Schreiber über ihr Leben als Bestseller-Autorin

Kevo and me talked to Jasmin Schreiber (Twitter, Instagram, Wikipedia), who became a bestselling author during the pandemic. Her first novel “Marianengraben” was sold out before its publishing date, followed by “Abschied von Hermine“: how (and where) does Jasmin write her books? How was it to find herself on the bestseller list — and to stay there week after week? What do visibility and success mean to her?

Johannes Piller über die Kunst, Musik gemeinschaftlich zu denken

Kevo and me met Johannes Piller to discuss how to think music collaboratively: “Weil ich das selbst immer haben wollte. Weil ich es vielleicht zu wenig oder nicht bekommen hab, ist es mir ein mega Bedürfnis zu sagen: ‘Wenn du möchtest, bitte: ich geb dir meine Hand, geh ma ein Stück gemeinsam“.
