Because we don't want to breed crime!... 342 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:58,920 {\an8}Daily sports routine, early morning 343 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:03,280 {\an8}RAINER LAUX - head of German TV-production of "Big Brother" 344 00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:06,840 {\an8}"Big Brother" indeed was a new kind of television. You really felt it 345 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:10,080 {\an8}this was something new. It hadn't been done before. 346 00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:15,640 Observing people 24 hours a day, Watching TV in the TV. 347 00:25:16,360 --> 00:25:18,920 It also was a fad at that time to oppose "Big Brother". 348 00:25:19,120 --> 00:25:21,440 As a so-called insult of human dignity 349 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:26,840 you knew it would immediately be in the headlines, on TV and radio. 350 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:33,400 {\an8}It simply was fascinating! You could look right into a normal life! 351 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:37,560 {\an8}There was a living room. A garden. A bedroom. Like in any average home. 352 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,600 {\an8}A little bit bigger. In a slightly different style. But almost the same. 353 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:44,600 {\an8}And you had the chance to innocently peek into what other people are doing. 354 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:46,560 {\an8}From morning until night. 24 hours a day. 355 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:49,600 {\an8}The people inside this house were completely authentic. 356 00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:52,560 {\an8}Though they were in a staged environment 357 00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:54,720 their lives in there were completely credible. 358 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,120 {\an8}Where do you live? Here? 359 00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:01,840 {\an8}Daily German lesson, late forenoon 360 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:05,560 {\an8}A big house?

Son of a pharmacist. Born 24.10.1960 in Oberhausen. 373 00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:56,560 {\an8}The subversive combination of populist narratives like 374 00:26:56,760 --> 00:27:01,480 {\an8}"Big Brother" with real socio-political problems. 375 00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:05,560 {\an8}Since the mid-eighties he creates films in the German underground scene. 376 00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:08,640 {\an8}Getting more and more respected in the art circuit, he expands the 377 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:11,040 {\an8}screen into reality in the mid-nineties. 378 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:15,920 {\an8}The theatre "Berliner Volksbühne" becomes his permanent home since 1997. 379 00:27:16,120 --> 00:27:19,920 {\an8}An anarchist TV-talk show and several public pranks make him a headline item. 380 00:27:20,120 --> 00:27:25,000 {\an8}But with the election event of "Chance 2000", a real political party by artists 381 00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:30,160 {\an8}supporting social losers, he overthrows himself with the media and 382 00:27:30,360 --> 00:27:35,120 {\an8}gets trashed as political clown. The "Wiener Festwochen" is the first institution 383 00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:38,160 {\an8}to invite him again to work in an established cultural setting. 384 00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:40,480 {\an8}CARL HEGEMANN - chief dramatic advisor "Volksbühne Berlin" 385 00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:43,040 {\an8}In the beginning I was very sure this would flop. 386 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:47,840 {\an8}I thought this would be too obvious, too intended. 387 00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:51,000 Everybody would feel preached to, because everybody would know 388 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:54,440 what this whole thing really is about. 389 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:58,800 What the heck! We love foreigners! And it all would remain without effect. 390 00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:02,440 It should have intrigued me differently, because these stories from Schlingensief 391 00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:05,400 always amazingly work with the crowd somehow. But still I was extremely surprised 392 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:10,800 when all of a sudden the whole Austrian population seriously took part in that play. 393 00:28:11,120 --> 00:28:12,440 The first have been deported! 394 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:13,920 Vienna is embarrassed! 395 00:28:14,120 --> 00:28:15,840 Monkey Biz Theatre Farce! 396 00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:18,000 Our country turned into a cartoon! 397 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:28,240 Certainly, regarding the latent theme of xenophobia 398 00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:32,280 the whole Austrian media situation, politics, he just had to throw a stone into that 399 00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:36,240 pool and count the waves. But how many waves would occur 400 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:40,240 and how big they would get, that was the thing that really interested him. 401 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:44,280 And when some others started throwing their rocks in as well, he as the initiator 402 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:48,280 {\an8}was delightfully thrilled, what would come out in the end. 403 00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:52,280 {\an8}He certainly tried to orchestrate the whole thing in between, but 404 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:56,280 {\an8}it would have been impossible with a biased political view. 405 00:28:56,480 --> 00:29:01,240 {\an8}If you perfectly direct and compose such a thing, it's dead from the start! 406 00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:04,080 This is the magnificent banner 407 00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:07,280 they keep hanging here for two and a half days already! 408 00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:11,320 The coalition you have voted for, keeps up a slogan like this in public 409 00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:15,360 {\an8}for two and a half days now! Since two and a half days the ÖVP and FPÖ 410 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,320 {\an8}do absolutely nothing to remove it! 411 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:22,360 How damn stupid this coalition has to be to keep this hanging for two and a half days! 412 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:25,040 This is the question we have to ask 413 00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:32,000 {\an8}Why can't we take this coalition seriously? They have to end! 414 00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:33,920 {\an8}They absolutely have to end! 415 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:35,280 {\an8}At exactly this moment... 416 00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:38,480 {\an8}RICHARD SCHMITZ - ex-chief of Vienna's first district, ÖVP 417 00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,600 {\an8}He first of all is a terribly skilled marketer of himself. 418 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:48,800 And there are media believing he will achieve something really big some day. 419 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:52,800 It already appeared to be like a big zero 420 00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:58,720 when he was at the Wolfgangsee with all those unemployed 421 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:04,720 {\an8}there was nothing there at all. A fluke. 422 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:08,720 But I was surprised about the press coverage afterwards. 423 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,400 It was very well photographed. 424 00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:13,480 {\an8}HEIDEMARIE UNTERREINER - culture spokeswoman, FPÖ 425 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:15,760 {\an8}Schlingensief is a puppet!

I mean, who wants to see that? 438 00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:46,760 There is just boredom on the stages, disconnected from real life. 439 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:49,760 This evidently is what links all events by Schlingensief together. 440 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:53,240 They invent situations, that allow no clear understanding of them. 441 00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:56,680 You can't clearly judge for yourself what is happening here. 442 00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:59,080 That's why I completely refuse the idea 443 00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:02,040 that this was an exemplary demonstration of fascism. 444 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:04,080 If this event would have been intended that way 445 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:08,080 then people with the "right consciousness" would have safely been able to cope with it. 446 00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:10,560 This whole method reaches back to Karl Kraus 447 00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:13,480 and what Walter Benjamin 448 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:19,080 That you don't need to comment to articulate criticism. 449 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:22,600 {\an8}It is enough to simply quote what you criticize. 450 00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:29,600 {\an8}The quotes just need to be placed in the right position at the right time and place. 451 00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:35,480 {\an8}Then suddenly a simple citation becomes self-revelatory! 452 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:38,480 I simply don't get it, why these people can not understand! 453 00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:41,480 All over the world, there is war and we are supposed to donate! 454 00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:44,480 There is money given to those who are starving and whoever else! 455 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:46,640 All over the world, there is war and nobody does something against it! 456 00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:50,760 And here, they freak out about this?

In Germany we just have lived through 499 00:36:48,240 --> 00:36:52,080 {\an8}the "Big Brother"- hysteria, where an elimination game 500 00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:58,200 {\an8}became the center of all things. But as soon as you blank out this insane need 501 00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:06,280 {\an8}of society to have one person as winner, so you don't cherish the gladiator anymore 502 00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:11,640 {\an8}and you don't cheer the European soccer master 503 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:16,440 {\an8}but you move that mechanism 504 00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:21,960 {\an8}of elimination into the light. That's where things start to get thrilling. 505 00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:29,200 {\an8}Then you can see how openly society participates in the production of losers. 506 00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:35,160 {\an8}Because the production of one winner requires the production of an 507 00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:39,080 uncountable number of losers. 508 00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:56,720 This is art!

So, that I get upset and can't sleep at night 515 00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:26,680 because you hang something like this up here! 516 00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:31,720 You are an enemy to Austria and you need to be deported! 517 00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:35,760 The formation of this government was no democratic act at all! 518 00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:39,680 Before the election had started, Chancellor Schüssel had promised 519 00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:44,760 If he would finish as third in the polls, he would take his party into opposition! 520 00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:51,720 By this, he lured those voters, who for whatever reason 521 00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:55,720 tried to prevent the FPÖ from entering the government! 522 00:38:55,960 --> 00:39:00,240 Who voted for Haider, at least knew what he bargained with! 523 00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:04,720 Who voted for Schüssel was betrayed to the highest degree! 524 00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:07,720 Is this really your only potential to articulate any resistance? 525 00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:09,800 This is a sorry ass demonstration of incapacity! 526 00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:14,800 Yes!

Just as we refuse child rape, violence per se and things like blasphemy. 545 00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:33,800 {\an8}We do not consider this as art!

Three people invaded the container 559 00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:33,240 {\an8}for the second time! And there was a little fire attack right at the front entrance! 560 00:41:34,080 --> 00:41:39,000 What is close ahead of us, concerning globalization to a high degree, 561 00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:44,680 is the danger of a technocratic economist fascism of a complete new kind, 562 00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:49,920 which leaves behind all of it's old characteristics. 563 00:41:50,120 --> 00:41:55,880 This could be a form of totalitarianism, that is completely different. 564 00:41:56,080 --> 00:42:00,440 Justifying itself by the increasingly lethal dangers of all technology used 565 00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:04,960 to maintain society and by the free access 566 00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:08,640 to the delights of pure economism. 567 00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:11,880 If you really want 568 00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:14,440 all of your consumer pleasures 569 00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:19,640 we have to completely control and observe this society! 570 00:42:20,840 --> 00:42:24,640 It had been assumed by Schlingensief 571 00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:28,920 that the "foreigners" are just a new currency 572 00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:33,920 for the Nazis. Another idea of his was, that the entire extreme right was just some kind 573 00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:38,920 of business scheme. It was obvious how Haider filled a market niche with this. 574 00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:43,680 There simply is a rightwing clientele in Austria, that can be skimmed. 575 00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:46,720 So you just target their votes as a business move. 576 00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:51,000 But that is just simple. It is less trivial, how they all bet 577 00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:56,880 on xenophobia like on a horse... or try to realise an idea 578 00:42:57,080 --> 00:42:59,920 that has not been realized. 579 00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:04,000 They throw hate into the market and see if it works. 580 00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:08,560 And if society resists it, you just look for the next method. 581 00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:11,800 {\an8}Daily Celebrity - ELFRIEDE JELINEK Nobel Prize winning Austrian author 582 00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:14,920 {\an8}We have written a play together.

Sentences, they heard many times before. 584 00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:27,880 So we assembled them into a punch-and-judy kind of play. 585 00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:34,280 {\an8}I am Miss Heidemarie Unterreiner. 586 00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:40,440 Tomorrow I will come and eat humans! 587 00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:49,360 {\an8}Finally, I am the chancellor!

Thank you! 594 00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:16,800 Everybody wanted to look at the human being as product then. 595 00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:22,920 What had been the star actor of a TV series or Liz Taylor on the big screen before 596 00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:28,920 {\an8}now was Mister Smith and that pussy from that beer pub across the street 597 00:44:29,120 --> 00:44:34,920 {\an8}who suddenly became visible as human goods. 598 00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:39,720 {\an8}They gave you the feeling, that it doesn't matter how stupid you are, 599 00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:44,000 {\an8}you re worth something. But we also discovered via "Big Brother" 600 00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:49,040 this is a lesson Mr. Laux also had to learn with the flop of the "Big Diet"-show - 601 00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:55,360 that the main ingredient in the product "human being" is not its surface. 602 00:44:55,560 --> 00:45:02,440 It is not to be conceived as a kind of capital, but far deeper. 603 00:45:03,080 --> 00:45:06,800 {\an8}Counter-statement by Vienna's Mayor Dr. Michael Häupl, SPÖ 604 00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:10,120 {\an8}This is not reality.

Vienna, inner city, ÖVP 857 01:05:26,560 --> 01:05:29,040 {\an8}For sure, there were people that said, it would have been better 858 01:05:29,360 --> 01:05:31,640 {\an8}this event had never taken place. 859 01:05:32,800 --> 01:05:36,480 But to prohibit such manifestations, 860 01:05:36,720 --> 01:05:42,080 I do not want to call this art, would have been far worse than letting 861 01:05:42,280 --> 01:05:48,680 things just happen like they were happening. 862 01:05:49,000 --> 01:05:51,640 If the "Krone" Newspaper wouldn't have jumped on it 863 01:05:51,840 --> 01:05:56,920 the whole thing would have drowned in the public mind. 864 01:05:57,120 --> 01:06:02,160 Due to lack of provocation. Due to lack of artistry. 865 01:06:03,240 --> 01:06:07,160 I think, the "Krone" just explicitly wanted to stake their claims on a clean 866 01:06:07,360 --> 01:06:10,160 and proper Austrian super-nation. Like the song in the film "First April 2000": 867 01:06:10,360 --> 01:06:14,120 "The sun shines the same for everyone! Why is Austria the one to blame?" 868 01:06:14,320 --> 01:06:17,440 The "Krone" just wanted to make it clear, how they dominate the country. 869 01:06:17,760 --> 01:06:21,440 And it doesn't fucking matter if it's SPÖ or FPÖ or ÖVP. 870 01:06:21,640 --> 01:06:24,680 The "Krone" is the "Krone" and thus the main party of the country. 871 01:06:24,880 --> 01:06:28,080 And whoever buys that paper in the morning, votes for that party. 872 01:06:28,280 --> 01:06:31,200 And there is nothing to stop that process. This is the way I believe things to be. 873 01:06:32,280 --> 01:06:36,120 Who we normally believe to be the ruling power is not. 874 01:06:36,320 --> 01:06:39,920 Yellow press is the only real political party out there. 875 01:06:41,200 --> 01:06:44,200 "Foreigners Out!" is a highly virulent instigation of the public! 876 01:06:44,400 --> 01:06:48,160 I am sick of apologizing to my friends from abroad 877 01:06:48,360 --> 01:06:52,120 that they have to read this "Foreigners Out!"-sign up there! 878 01:06:52,320 --> 01:06:55,200 But you need not to apologize for something that is true! 879 01:06:55,400 --> 01:07:00,160 Foreigners out!

They are all over the society pages. 885 01:07:42,000 --> 01:07:45,120 They dominate the lifestyle mags. 886 01:07:45,280 --> 01:07:48,680 They are the new idols. 887 01:07:49,120 --> 01:07:52,120 Some years ago it was just Haider, who was the worshipped pop icon, 888 01:07:52,320 --> 01:07:56,080 that bold little chap, who dares talking back at any cost. 889 01:07:56,280 --> 01:08:00,080 Who bungee-jumps from the highest bridges. 890 01:08:00,280 --> 01:08:02,080 The one fighting against those with established power. 891 01:08:02,280 --> 01:08:06,080 Now there has grown a lot more of that specimen. 892 01:08:08,040 --> 01:08:13,400 {\an8}Chatroom of the event-website 893 01:08:16,240 --> 01:08:20,160 {\an8}We are dreaming.

And then he chickened out. 915 01:09:40,320 --> 01:09:44,120 Haider copped out! 916 01:09:44,320 --> 01:09:48,160 The "Krone" completely missed the point in saying, this just was leftist group hysteria. 917 01:09:48,360 --> 01:09:51,640 The stage also was open to the right-wingers. 918 01:09:51,800 --> 01:09:55,440 Even to the head of them. 919 01:09:56,880 --> 01:10:02,160 It then turned into a propaganda forum for the left.

But democracy is no formal logical term 946 01:11:42,480 --> 01:11:46,000 but a term to define and secure certain political social realities. 947 01:11:46,480 --> 01:11:49,360 This is the slight difference. 948 01:11:49,760 --> 01:11:52,120 Straight on time, the next deportation is starting! 949 01:11:52,320 --> 01:11:54,720 And another one!

They both need their faces punched in! 1035 01:18:44,800 --> 01:18:48,680 {\an8}The Schlingensief-stories are extreme forms of social integration because 1036 01:18:48,880 --> 01:18:53,760 {\an8}they are able to integrate even those, who are in serious danger to crack up 1037 01:18:54,480 --> 01:19:00,560 and start a large-scale terrorist or nihilist political act. 1038 01:19:00,920 --> 01:19:04,760 Thereby these tendencies get tied to the comparatively safe realm of art. 1039 01:19:05,000 --> 01:19:08,760 And that is why art is so magnificently assimilated, where it seems 1040 01:19:09,000 --> 01:19:11,760 to be not conforming to society at all. 1041 01:19:12,680 --> 01:19:16,240 I am a little therapist here. 1042 01:19:16,440 --> 01:19:20,320 A little head doctor in the hospital. 1043 01:19:20,800 --> 01:19:25,760 And I am proud of that, to carry my patients away from their lies for a short moment. 1044 01:19:26,000 --> 01:19:28,760 And then we can diagnose together. 1045 01:19:29,000 --> 01:19:31,680 And we can judge if there is recovery possible or not. 1046 01:19:32,000 --> 01:19:35,720 If he was a social therapist, then this whole enterprise has flopped. 1047 01:19:35,920 --> 01:19:39,720 It hasn't cleansed anything. Yes, I know, how this may be understood! 1048 01:19:39,920 --> 01:19:41,680 I don't want to have a battle of words. 1049 01:19:41,880 --> 01:19:47,160 I conceive "therapy" as a term for cleaning up, making healthy again. 1050 01:19:47,360 --> 01:19:50,120 But this event only revealed something. 1051 01:19:50,280 --> 01:19:53,600 And this is far more than we could have hoped. 1052 01:19:54,640 --> 01:19:56,720 {\an8}-Let's begin.
