Project
In the spring of 2009 Fiction Pimps were contacted by Musikparlamentet (a debate forum with the purpose of developing the musicindustry), to assist in a new aesthetic facilitation of the monthly Musikparlament debate arrangement. Fiction Pimps then activated Club de la Faye, to re-think Musikparlamentets concept and to set up a Full Fiction.
The Reapers Lodge - A Full FictionClub de la Fayes work entails creating a unique and specific fiction for the given arrangement. In this case the idea of The Reapers Lodge was developed. The Reapers Lodge was imagined as a group of people who once in a while would appear to facilitate paradigm shifts in the world of music. The performers and the setting then acted as elements in this fiction.
As a part of the Full Fiction idea, every detail in the arrangement was thoroughly developed to fit the fiction and the specific place. The table was decadently set in a forrest-like setting, the smell of sugar, bird-sounds and monotonous voices lay in the air, all to seduce the guests into fiction.
Debate as Ritual
In viewing the whole event as one big ritual, Club de la Faye brings a new level to the arrangement. In this case the guests, when entering the buliding, were met by the female Reapers who initiated the Ritual of the One Hundred Cardinals.
"The Cardinal of Love has entered the building.
The Cardinal of Noise is also with us tonight"
- the sound of their voices mixing with the soundscape of birds and breaking glass...
Vision & IdeasFiction Pimps were also in the panel of experts that evening, airing views on the poetic life, everyone as artists, life being one grand stage and the democratization of art.
By each guest a pen and a piece of fabric was placed. The guests were urged to write down their greatest visions and dreams for the live musicscene. During the evening and during the debate, the Reapers collected all the pieces, with all the words, and from this they created a great gobelin of visions.
