De-radicalisation on TikTok
With onlinetheater.live: Katharina Kraft, Toni Minge, Luzia Oppermann und Caspar Weimann
Social media is the biggest theatre of our reality and men are currently particularly effective players in it, spreading misogynistic, queer and generally inhumane content and driving their primarily male target audience into spirals of violence, loneliness and blockades. With its ‘Myke’ project, onlinetheater.live has developed strategies to interrupt this radicalisation.
Their workshop is a deep dive into the TikTok manosphere. Together, the participants watch videos with various narratives of masculinity, analyse aesthetics, stylistic devices, hooks and narrative patterns and discuss strategies for breaking through the spirals of loneliness and violence that are based on these images of masculinity. Over the past three months, onlinetheater.live has created a campaign on TikTok that is just such a strategy and would like to share its experiences and ideas, improve them, discuss them and encourage you to copy them!
onlinetheater.live
onlinetheater.live is a transdisciplinary network of artists who aim to actively shape our post-digital reality through emancipatory and interventionist formats. This happens in apps, online performances, social media campaigns and constantly reinvented intermedia concepts.

Sharing a dance with senzenberger|rieck
Practice-orientated workshop , Flinta* only
In this workshop, movement material from hybrid and digitally circulating choreographies will be learnt and explored in a playful experiment from the perspective of the dance piece ‘a dance routine’. Sharing a dance - together we will experience how bodies, like archives, are composed of accumulated, incorporated (and unreached) material and how the friction between the body and the performativity of gender and sexuality is constantly evident
senzenberger|rieck
senzenberger|rieck work on the intertwining of contemporary dance and dance in pop culture and social media, exploring individual-collective moments in the field of friction between different dance routines. With their fascination for the ambiguous communal foundation of digitally circulating choreographies, senzenberger|rieck dedicate themselves to learning and appropriation, but also to the inevitable transformation that occurs when movements are passed on between bodies and media.

Is TikTok a *social* network? with Ole Liebl
People consume content on TikTok, every day, for hours on end. But does that mean they are just passive viewers? In the comment column, with stitches or duets, they also actively participate in the discussion with other users and/or the creators. This creates communities - TikTokers recognise each other, form loose acquaintances and even friendships here and there. In the workshop with Ole Liebl (@oleliebl), we will learn to understand TikTok as a social network.
Ole Liebl, born in 1992 in a village in Rhineland-Palatinate, studied philosophy and computer science at the TU and FU Berlin. On his TikTok and Instagram channels, he explains various topics relating to toxic masculinity, sexuality, gender and relationships from a queer-feminist and academic perspective. Ole Liebl lives in Berlin and works in an LGBTIQ care organisation.
