He performs regularly and takes part in readings and workshops; mainly in the black scene , for example at the Wave-Gotik-Treffen . He cooperates on various occasions with Bela B. , Boris Koch and other authors and artists. Together with Koch and Markolf Hoffmann , he launched the reading series “StirnhirnhinterZimmer” and in 2007 published an anthology with texts from this series.
