Andreas Kissenbeck – Wenn ALLES aus NICHTS ist, wozu dann SCHOKOLADE? - Konzert . Lesung . Schokolade

In the organizer's words:

With his stage program, Andreas Kissenbeck inspires all the senses and takes his audience on a journey to the big questions about mankind and the cosmos. With music, humor and melt-in-the-mouth chocolate, he ignites a sensual fascination for everything we know, what we don't know and what we may never know. He shows what scientists have researched, philosophers have conceived and artists have created in order to provide answers.

It is about EVERYTHING: Where does the universe come from? How does our consciousness arise? Is artificial intelligence a somebody and can you marry it?

It's also about NOTHING: Why are there nine different kinds of it? How can there be works of art made of nothing?

And, of course, it's about CHOCOLATE: Why is it a symbol for the meaning of life among philosophers?

Sometimes it takes more than words. Kissenbeck has written piano compositions on the various topics that invite you to reflect. Tasting the chocolate is also directly linked to the content and opens up access beyond the boundaries of the mind.

The allure of the enigmatic, the sounds of the piano and the taste of the chocolate transform the moment into a unique experience. An evening for music lovers, amateur philosophers, art lovers, inquiring minds and for connoisseurs who appreciate the sweet moments in life.

The author, composer and pianist Andreas Kissenbeck is an international concert musician, mathematician and humanities graduate. Under the title "Wenn ALLES aus NICHTS ist, wozu dann SCHOKOLADE" (If EVERYTHING is made of NOTHING, then why CHOCOLATE), he shows live how art, science and philosophy look at the world.
