Lisa Spalt publishes in the Experimental Literature section . In "Grimms" (2007) four fairy tales by the Brothers Grimm collide with the language of advertising. 2010 publication of "Blossoms. A utility object"; a text on assessing and failing nature and on assessment as a prerequisite for action, presented in a system of articles, notes, footnotes and references, loosely centered on the story of the great tulip mania. Readers are asked to create the fiction of their overall picture themselves and thus to try out their evaluation mechanisms. Most recently published: "Dings" (2012), a declaration of love for functionless particles of broken objects, found in the streets of Vienna, Paris and Los Angeles. As if in slow motion, in "Dings" a world explodes into meaningless objects, into indecipherable you-particles, and at the same time is created as a course, precisely as the description, the narrative, moves through it.

Lisa Spalt wrote the text tag day - a writing game with the composer Clemens Gadenstätter . In addition, the piece for voice and piano ballade 1 , 4 scenes after Francisco de Goya for guitar and voice in one person, two madrigals, flowers were created in collaboration with Clemens Gadenstätter . A social installation for variable cast and ES , minimal opera for voice, video and ensemble.
