Fantasia Malware: Fever Loop Fountain #4 – Overstimulation Propaganda
2025-02-06 19:00 - 22:00 | HAU3, Tempelhofer Ufer 10, Berlin, 10963, Germany
Presenting video games in unique performative settings is the hallmark of the Berlin collective Fantasia Malware, who return to HAU for the fourth and final instalment of the Fever Loop Fountain series. The evening will feature two short performances, each taking a different approach to overstimulation and sensory experience.
Chloê Langford (Fantasia Malware) has invited guest artist Zane Hettinga to collaborate on the first performance of the night. “Hand in a Cave” follows the descent of a disembodied digital hand, crawling forward into the darkness, searching for sensory data in a computer-generated cave. Meanwhile on stage, a creature with cameras for hands probes the black box of the theatre, scanning for data to feed to its digital twin.
The second performance features Fantasia Malware member Jira Duguid, who will present a new chapter of her episodic “Mirror Mall”. The video game is a world within a mirror, where two young cherubs flee heaven to the void beyond. This immersive performance is a collaboration with composer and sound designer Kris Wratt.

Gamerausch: INDIKA
2025-02-16 18:30 - 23:00 | Filmrauschpalast, Lehrter Str. 35, Berlin, 10557, Germany
In the second event of this year’s GAMERAUSCH series, we play INDIKA (2024) and follow the story of the young nun of the same name who lives in a monastery in an alternative 19th century Russia. The task of the game is simple: Indika is commissioned by the superior of her Russian Orthodox order to deliver a letter. So far, so good. But she is not traveling alone. Her companion is the devil, who whispers in her ear and tries to dissuade her from the righteous path.
The adventure game by the exiled Russian development team Odd-Meter critically, mysteriously and sometimes satirically deals with the history and present of the Russian Orthodox Church and its influence on Russian society – against a visually stunning backdrop and with, in the truest sense, plenty of unorthodox storytelling.
To do justice to this surprise hit of last year, we are showing/playing INDIKA in full length (approx 4-5 hrs incl. Break) and on the big screen as usual.
Original Language with English Subtitles.
