About this Event

We close our two-day program at KINDL in Neukölln on Saturday, 22 August with Copenhagen-based saxophonist Michaela Turcerová, US synthesist Mind Over Mirrors and Polish multi-instrumentalist Olga Anna Markowska. This follows on from Friday night, featuring Suzan Peeters, Yaz Lancaster and Mattias Hållsten.

Founded by US musician Jaime Fennelly in 2010, Mind Over Mirrors has passed through several incarnations — including a duo with Haley Fohr (Circuit des Yeux) and an ensemble — but returned to a solo project for the 2025 album . Blending Oberheim synthesizers with acoustic and electronic harmoniums, the record creates what Boomkat describes as “a dense mass of kosmische synths, reedy drones and squelchy analogue arpeggios,” evoking scenes of both pastoral beauty and the uncanny wilderness beyond.

Michaela Turcerová is a Slovak composer and saxophonist living in Copenhagen who explores hidden and unheard timbres. In her solo project IN FLUX, she transforms the alto saxophone with surreal amplification, external sound objects and sine waves, creating intimate and surprising electroacoustic spaces. Her debut album was released in 2024, with The Quietus noting in its review that she “builds her sonic palettes from ghostly gurgles and blasts of noise extracted, and in some cases beaten out of her instrument.” She also leads the octet Doudouči Ensemble and Ensemble ŠUMUM.

Olga Anna Markowska is a Polish composer and multi-instrumentalist whose sonic language moves between ambient, early music, minimalism and the avant-garde, weaving together electronic textures with acoustic instruments — notably cello and zither — to build intimate, immersive atmospheres. Her 2024 release Thrills and last year’s both examine memory, identity and nature; A Closer Listen said that ISKRA “offers a deep, inviting and engaging listen through Markowska’s new microcosm in the making.” She also composes for film, with her scores including Koka and In Heaven and on Earth.





The Kiezsalon is a project by Digital in Berlin. Curated by Michael Rosen and funded by the Senate Department for Culture and Social Cohesion. Presented by The Wire and taz, die tageszeitung.
