Mein erster eigener Roman, voll gepackt mit Utopien und allem, was ich auf 192 Seiten erzählen konnte.
Vom Dresdner WG-Tisch bis zur ersten Mondstadt: Das Handbuch folgt Niwa und Puk, Rasha und Lissa, die aus Wut konkrete Politik machen – Grundeinkommen, bezahlbare Mieten, autofreie Quartiere, basisdemokratische Gewerkschaften. Zwischen Familiengeschichte, Kneipenplenum und Orbit wird aus Ideen gelebte Praxis – bis zur Verfassung der Republik Luna. Ein Roman und Werkzeugkasten zugleich: zärtlich, wütend, humorvoll und anpackend. Für alle, die nicht mehr warten wollen, sondern wissen möchten, was zu tun ist.
Nähere Infos zum Inhalt findet ihr auf der dafür eingerichteten Webseite unter:
Two travellers, two paths, touching blues, jazz and singer-songwriter, uniting into an old, but equally new musical experience. Pianist Jan Kosyk is a solo artist, as well as an ensemble player, just like the bassist Alina Dalsegno, hence, they decided to continue the journey as a duo, creating original live music from influences of many decades.

On this EP, the trio led by Alina Dalsegno on bass explores the similarities between blues and swing. Together with pianist Jan Kosyk and drummer Joachim Jurenz, they jazz up four songs by the Siberian singer-songwriter. The result is a work from the deepest Siberian soul paired with the lightness of 1920s swing in English and Russian. Anyone who loves jazz standards will love this gem.
Zum Release der zweiten EP zum Jazz-Album Encounters at the Edge of Time widmet sich das Trio um Alina Dalsegno am Bass und Gesang den Gemeinsamkeiten von Blues und Swing am Samstag, den 30. August ab 20 Uhr im Blue Note.
Together with the Alina Dalsegno Trio, the two of us visited the Leipziger Liederszene and were delighted to meet lots of new people while networking.
Beppu Punk Cats
Hirai Masaya from Beppu (Japan) and me merge together to form the Beppu Punk Cats. An explosive mixture of political content and emotional songs in English, Japanese and German.
Accompanied by guitar and piano, the expressive voices explain why Alex expropriated the bear, how to get Nazis out of the house and why people are more important than borders. And while the two use my pen to write the odd lines of music into the listener’s ears, they talk musically about melted ice cream. Just as if they were sitting in the sun – with a beer in their hand – in front of the next late-night shop.

The Beppu Punk Cats will once again be playing at the famous Tapya and will set the small venue alight. They will be accompanied by the nimble fingers of Morichan from The Old&Moderns on the double bass.
The first album with 9 tracks. Reason enough to celebrate a record release concert. ヒライマサヤ and Jan Kosyk presented songs from the album garnished with their own and new creations.
Hirai Masaya and Jan Kosyk will give a full concert at Sempervivum. It will be a brilliant bouquet of Japanese-German punk rock jazz folk with guitar and piano.
Hirai Masaya and I played a great Wohnzimmer concert. We produced a mix of German and Japanese and sang, drummed and strummed together in the beautiful bar Tapyasan.

Today there will be no direct video of me. Instead I’ll recommend you the recordings of the Wohnzimmer concert from last Sunday. Masaya-san and me created some kind of unique japanese-german punk-folk-rock genre, where music connects people, meanings, pictures and languages. Enjoy it!
This week was full of art. \o/ I tell you timely backwards our todays presentation for Beppu Art Month, my plan to have flyers of our exhibtions and concerts for the Art Fair Beppu, the new song of the CATS project in Italian language from Thursday with Hirai Masaya and a rehearsal of Nihongo-German songs from Wednesday. Much music, some pictures. Have fun!

It’s nearly two weeks since the last daily, but I have my reasons. 😃 Today I gonna tell you some useful AI things I’ve done for the Neustadt Art Festival website and you’ll get some music: A spontaneous session at Watanabe Tomishoten and songs I rehearsed with Hirai Masaya. Have fun!

Right now there are quite a lot exhibitions and concerts and we try to catch some of them. In addition we installed a small cinema at Kurukuru. And I’m working on Cat And The Sun and the second song is ready for prepublishing it here. Have fun! 🎸🎶🎻🎵
Kiyoshima Artist Daily :: 2023-08-05
Today you’ll see another unboxing of music equipment (How exciting! 😝), the first impression of the first verse of the first song of the project Cat And The Sun and a surprise at the end.

It’s been a while since the last daily (and it’s not called “weekly”), but I was busy creating a new Peertube instance for my videos. Now it’s ready and I’m proud to present it to you. 🥳
Nevertheless I did some artsy things like having the Songbirds concert last Saturday and doing some lead sheets for Masaya and me again. Enjoy it!

Today you’ll get some impressions of doing “musician things” like texting and rehearsing and a little timelaps building an improvised Piñata. 🪅
Kiyoshima Artist Daily :: 2023-07-26
The first one is directly about the project »Cat And The Sun«. In this project I’ll write seven songs in seven languages and Omani will do seven artworka.
Furthermore you can listen to some snippets from a rehearsal of Hirai Masaya and me earlier this day.
Klavierpunk
Too much punk for songwriting, too much jazz for punk, and too much songwriting for jazz. It’s always about utopias and a huge dose of political education. Political what?
Well, so that you know what a Nazi in the house has to do with illegal parking, why Alex expropriates the bear, what squatting has to do with the inner punk, and why disaster control dances on the ruins of the German Armed Forces. Finally, we treat ourselves to a Sterni in the late-night shop and talk about the utopias of a realist.
Since 2018, I have been on stage alone with piano and voice. With almost forgotten cover songs and a constantly growing repertoire of my own compositions, I tell you what will make the world a better place.
Our wonderful studio has been around for 3 years and we celebrated this with you! Surrounded by the art of Atilla Bayindir, Joelle Vanderbeke and Thomas Schreiter, the evening was filled with music by Anne Lenk, Vanessa Brix and me.
Hirai Masaya and I played a great Wohnzimmer concert. We produced a mix of German and Japanese and sang, drummed and strummed together in the beautiful bar Tapyasan.
The Folkpunkfriends from Leipzig got wind of me at the end of 2022 and already visited us at Drägg’schen Löffel and lax&lux. Now there was a small recording session in the tub, very small and secret.
