31. literarno-glasbeni festival ŽIVA KNJIŽEVNOST
The 31st Literary and Music Festival Living Literature
7. 6. - 14. 6. 2024, pred Galerijo Škuc
Društvo ŠKUC vabi na 31. literarno-glasbeni festival Živa književnost, ki bo potekal od 7. do 14. junija 2024 pred Galerijo Škuc, na Starem trgu 21 v Ljubljani. Letošnjo Živo književnost posvečamo sodelavcu Damjanu Bizilju aka dj Bizzyju, ki nas je lani zapustil.
Našo ulico bomo ponovno napolnili s pestrim kulturnim programom za vse generacije. Prepletli se bosta književnost in glasba, ustvarjalnost bo poživila utrip mestnega jedra.
Prvi večer bodo nastopili grški in domači pesniki_ce Athena Ntroumpi, Konstantine Matsoukas, Christos Koukis, Milan Šelj, Tina Kozin in Lukas Debeljak, ki so obiskovali prevajalsko delavnico v Danah pri Sežani, v organizaciji Centra za slovensko književnost. Na njej so medsebojno prevajali pesmi drug drugega. Svoja razmišljanja in prevode nam bodo predstavili s skupinskim nastopom v obeh jezikih.
Sledili bodo gosti s treh celin, literatka Julia Sarachu iz Argentine, vsestranski umetnik David Odiase iz Nigerije in književnik Petar Andonovski iz Severne Makedonije.
Štirje večeri bodo posvečeni domači literaturi. Letos bodo brali in razkrili svoje avtopoetike pesnica Nataša Velikonja, pesnik Sergej Harlamov, prozaistka Ajda Bračič in dramatičarka Tjaša Mislej.
Kot vedno se bodo književnim avtorjem_icam na odru pridružili glasbeniki_ce, ki se gibljejo po raznolikih žanrskih poljih. Prisluhnili bomo instrumentalnemu folku, elektroniki, diy minimalističnemu spajanju zvokov, rocku, bolj igrivemu in bolj mračnemu kantavtorskemu muziciranju. Z nami bodo Dojaja, Petra Onderufová & Aleksander Kuzmić (Wild Strings Duo), Vraževerje, Niko Novak, Iztok Koren, Muzikačaka, Kiki in Bregove dere.
Vsak dan od 18. ure dalje bo dogajanje popestril spremljevalni program O’ živela knjiga. Ta je namenjen otrokom in mladim, njihovemu spoznavanju s knjigami in spodbujanju ustvarjalnosti. Lahko si bodo ogledali gledališke in lutkovne predstave, na pravljičnih druženjih vstopili v svet novih slikanic, se udeležili številnih ustvarjalnih delavnic in vodenega ogleda umetniškega ateljeja.

Dojaja je eden redkih slovenskih DJ-jev, ki se profesionalno ukvarja z glasbo, poznan je po sodelovanju z Umekom, Laibachi, Rotorji, Katjo Šulc, Niplodok, Space Orchestra, Ago Tela, marsikdo pa ne ve, da je velik ljubitelj disko glasbe, lahko se pohvali z bogato zbirko vinilk. Žanrsko bogato zbirko plošč gradi že od malega, glavni zagon pa so bili zagotovo pionirji, ki so ga za vedno prepričali: Joy Division, New Order, Kraftwerk, Depeche Mode in drugi. Do danes se je kot DJ ob bok postavil že mnogim svetovnim imenom, od Jeffa Millsa, Richieja Hawtina, Slaterja, Rusha pa do Vladislava Delaya itd. Prvič se je pred publiko pojavil leta 1995, že naslednje leto pa je začel nastopati kot rezident v klubu Palma. Kmalu ga skupaj z DJ Bizzyjem k sodelovanju povabi DJ Umek in pod imenom Absense team (kasneje preimenovanim v Consumer Recreation) kot rezidenti nastopajo v klubu K4 .
Eigengrau je novi glasbeni projekt Iztoka Turka in Petra Jenka, v okviru katerega ustvarjata ambientalno elektroniko s pridihom techna in duba. Njun kreativni proces se kreše med tehnološkim obiljem in askezo ter digitalnim in analognim. Zamižite in povejte, katere barve je njuna glasba.
Dojaja is one of the few Slovenian DJs who is a professional musician, known for his collaborations with DJ Umek, Laibach, Katja Šulc, Niplodok, Space Orchestra and Ago Tela. But not many people know that he is a big fan of disco music and owns an extensive and diverse collection of LPs, which he has been compiling since he was a child. His main influences (including on his musical path) are undoubtedly the pioneers who have made a lasting impression on him: Joy Division, New Order, Kraftwerk, Depeche Mode, etc. He has performed alongside big names such as Jeff Mills, Richie Hawtin, Slater, Rush, Vladislav Delay and others. He made his first public appearance in 1995 and became a resident DJ in club Palma only one year later. Soon after, he and DJ Bizzy were invited to collaborate with DJ Umek under the name of Absense team (later known as Consumer Recreation), which became the resident collective at club K4.
Eigengrau is a new musical project of Iztok Turk and Peter Jenko, creating ambient electronic music with a hint of techno and dub. Their creative process oscillates between technological excess and asceticism, and digital and analogue. Close your eyes and say what colour their music is.

Glasba / Music: Niko Novak
Nataša Velikonja je sociologinja, pesnica, esejistka, prevajalka, lezbična aktivistka. Objavila je sedem knjig poezije: leta 1994 je pri založbi Škuc izdala pesniški prvenec Abonma, ki velja za prvo deklarirano lezbično pesniško zbirko na Slovenskem. Je avtorica šestih knjig esejev in znanstvenih razprav, ki se spuščajo v analizo prepleta umetnostnih, kulturnih, političnih in družbeno-seksualnih realnosti; njen avtorski pogled opredeljuje kontrakulturna, lezbično-feministična perspektiva. Prejela je Župančičevo nagrado (2016), Mednarodno literarno nagrado Kons (2018) in Jenkovo nagrado (2022).
Nataša Velikonja, sociologist, poet, essayist, translator, lesbian activist. She has published seven books of poetry: in 1994, the Škuc publishing house released her first poetry collection Abonma (Subscription), which is considered the first openly lesbian book of poetry in Slovenia. She is the author of six books of essays and scientific papers, analysing the intertwinement of artistic, cultural, political and sociosexual realities; her writing is a reflection of her countercultural, lesbian-feminist perspective. She is the winner of the Župančič Award (2016), the KONS International Literary Award (2018) and the Jenko Award (2022).
Niko Novak je vsestranski ustvarjalec, predvsem pa glasbenik, ki je na domači sceni najprej pustil pečat kot član zasedb Dicky B. Hardy in kultnega dvojca Incurabili. Sledila je samostojna kantavtorska pot in izdal je šest albumov. V spletni reviji Nova muska so prepričani, da smo z njim dobili slovenskega Johnnyja Casha, na Radiu Študent pa so ga poimenovali slovenski Leonard Cohen. A Niko je samosvoj in se na oznake ne ozira. Je pesnik življenja na divji strani, ki individualnost potrjuje zgolj s prepisovanjem samega sebe. Danes je najizrazitejši slovenski kantavtor, z globokim glasom, ki odmeva ob igranju električnega basa. Njegovo izrazito minimalistično, v tančico skrivnosti zavito muziko zaznamuje posebna čustvena napetost, ki izvira iz preproste, a učinkovite kombinacije robustnih bas linij, surovih vokalov in evokativnih verzov. Leta 2023 je izdal album Ambition to Help is a Killer, ki ga je produciral Chris Eckman.
Niko Novak is an all-around artist but essentially a musician, who has left his mark on the Slovenian scene as a member of the Dicky B. Hardy band and the legendary duo Incurabili. He then pursued a solo career, releasing a total of six albums. The online magazine Nova muska believes that he is the Slovenian Johnny Cash, while Radio Študent called him the Slovenian Leonard Cohen. But Niko is his own person and pays no attention to labels. He is a poet of the life on the wild side, affirming his individuality by copying only himself. He is now Slovenia’s most distinct singer-songwriter with a deep voice, reverberating to the accompaniment of an electric bass. His markedly minimalist music veiled in mystery is charged with emotions, emanating from a simple but effective combination of robust bass lines, raw vocals and evocative verses. In 2023 he released the album Ambition to Help Is a Killer, produced by Chris Eckman.

Muzikačaka je one-woman-looper-band Sare Korošec. Z looperjem v živo spleta tapiserijo zvoka. Plasti in zanka glas, klavir in elektroniko, da ustvarja krajino, podobno slojevitemu haloškemu hribovju. Njene skladbe združujejo elemente avant-popa, poetičnega pripovedovanja, trance zank in ambientalnih tekstur, ki se združujejo v kontemplativni zvočni izkušnji. Skozi glasbo premišljuje, si zamišljuje svet in nenehno išče skupni jezik periferije in centra, jezik preteklosti in prihodnosti, samote in nasičenosti ter nemoči in boja.
Muzikačaka is Sara Korošec’s one-woman-looper-band. She uses a looper to create a tapestry of sound in her live performances. She layers and loops vocals, piano and electronics, conceiving a landscape similar to the stratified hills of Haloze. Her songs combine the elements of avant-pop, poetic storytelling, trance loops and ambient textures, intertwining in a contemplative sonoric experience. She uses music to contemplate, think up the world, constantly in search of a language common to the periphery and the centre, the language of the past and the future, of loneliness and saturation, of helplessness and fighting.

Kantavtorico KiKi, ki jo je Radio Študent opisal kot »čarovnico intimnih pripovedk«, ste letos lahko poslušali na festivalu MENT Ljubljana. Njene pesmi so nekoliko čudaške in občasno temačne, ne manjka pa jim čustvenih izpovedi in lepih harmonij. KiKi je lani izdala svoj prvi album KRiKi, ki ga lahko poslušate na vseh streaming platformah in preverite, ali gre res za "magični folk pop".
Singer-songwriter KiKi, described by Radio Študent as “a sorceress of intimate narratives”, made an appearance at this year’s MENT Festival in Ljubljana. Her songs are slightly odd and at times dark, but full of lyricism and beautiful harmonies. Last year KiKi released her first album KRiKi, which you can found on all streaming platforms to see if it can really be classified as “magical folk pop”.

Erotični večer, pesniško-glasbeni performens / An erotic night, poetry and music performance
Maja Vidmar, Barbara Korun, Alja Adam
Glasba / Music: Gregor Zemljič
Pesniško-glasbeni performans prepleta organsko glasbo in poetično besedo. V ospredje so postavljene erotične vsebine, ki potujejejo skozi različne zvočne pokrajine in se na novo oblikujejo v trenutku izkustva, v prisotnosti in odnosih med nastopajočimi. Maja Vidmar (poezija), Barbara Korun (poezija), Alja Adam (poezija), Gregor Zemljič (glasba)
The performance is an intertwinement of organic music and poetry. It highlights erotic content that travels through various soundscapes and remoulds itself in the moment of experience, in the presence and interrelations between the performers.
Maja Vidmar (poetry), Barbara Korun (poetry), Alja Adam (poetry), Gregor Zemljič (music)

Glasba / Music: Bregove dere
Petar Andonovski, rojen leta 1987 v Kumanovu, spada v mlajšo generacijo makedonskih avtorjev. Diplomiral je na Katedri za splošno in primerjalno književnost na Univerzi sv. Cirila in Metoda v Skopju, na literarnem prizorišču pa je debitiral s pesniško zbirko Менталенпростор (Miselni prostor, 2008). Čeprav od takrat piše le prozo, je ta prežeta s poetičnim minimalističnim slogom, ki sega predvsem v sfero intimnega, zaznamuje pa jo tudi kratka forma z zgoščenimi in nabitimi atmosferami. Do zdaj je objavil pet romanov; Очисобојаначевли (Oči barve čevljev, 2013), Телотовокоетребадасеживее (Telo v katerem je treba živeti, 2015), za katerega je prejel nagrado makedonski roman leta, Страводварвари (Strah pred barbari, 2018), ki mu je prinesel nagrado Evropske unije za književnost, Летово kоетенема (Poletje, v katerem te ni, 2020) in Некажувам (Ne povem, 2023). Poletje, v katerem te ni, prvi avtorjev knjižni prevod v slovenščino, velja za prvi odkrito gejevski roman v makedonski književnosti.
Petar Andonovski, born in 1987 in Kumanovo, belongs to the younger generation of Macedonian authors. He graduated at the Department of General and Comparative Literature of the SS. Cyril and Methodius University of Skopje and made his literary debut with the poetry collection Менталенпростор (A Space of Contemplation, 2008). Although he has since switched to prose, his style is poetic and minimalist, focusing mainly on the intimate sphere and combining short form and dense, charged atmospheres. He has published five novels: Очисобојаначевли (Eyes in the Colour of Shoes, 2013), Телотовокоетребадасеживее (A Body to Live In, 2015), for which he received the Macedonian Novel of the Year Award, Страводварвари (Fear of Barbarians, 2018), which won him the EU Prize for Literature, Летово kоетенема (The Summer Without You 2020) and Некажувам (I Won’t Tell, 2023). The Summer Without You is the author’s first translation into Slovenian and is considered to be the first openly gay novel in Macedonian literature.
Bregove dere
Zametki zasedbe segajo v leto 2018, ko so se začele kopičiti ideje, takrat še solo projektu Matjaža, ki se je usmeril drugam od takrat matičnih Meduzalem. Osnovna ideja je bil koncept akustične in bolj organske glasbe z osnovo klasične kitare, bobnov, basa in tolkal. V lastni režiji je izdal prvi EP Tok misli ogledalo. Kmalu zatem se je priključil bobnar Robi, sicer zelo dejaven v Kombu C Zlatka Kaučiča. Kot duo sta ustvarila osnove za vsaj pet daljših kompozicij. Čez čas se jima je pridružil Matej na električni kitari, ki je doprinesel harmonsko in zvočno pestrost. Po daljšem iskanju, so povabili basista Timija, ki z Robijem dlje časa igrata v skupnih zasedbah (npr. Kavasutra). Ob ideji gostujočega glasbenika se jim je pridružil še Jure na violini, ki je ustvarjal že v bandu Suisound in v prvotni zasedbi Meduzalem. V sedanji postavi glasba Bregove dere dobiva naposled organsko formo kreature, ki se še prebuja, si vzame svoj čas in prostor, da zadiha. Zasedba: Matjaž (klasična kitara, vocal), Robi (bobni), Matej (električna kitara), Timi (bas kitara), Jure (violina)
Bregove dere
The group’s beginnings date back to 2018, when ideas began to burgeon in what was, at the time, the solo project of Matjaž, who decided to veer away from his then main group Meduzalem. The core idea was the concept of acoustic and more organic music consisting of classic guitar, drums, bass and percussion. matjaž released his first solo EP Tok misli ogledalo. Soon after, he was joined by drummer Robi, a member of Zlatko Kaučič’s Kombo C. The duo created the basis for at least five longer compositions. Later they were joined by Matej on the electric guitar, bringing with him a variety of harmony and sound. After a long search for a bass player, the band invited Timi, who had played alongside Robi in several groups (e.g. Kavasutra). The quartet started working on their first songs for recording and live performances. At the suggestion of a guest musician, they group was completed by violinist Jure, Matjaž’s former bandmate in Suisound and the original Meduzalem. In its current form, the music of Bregove dere is assuming the organic shape of a creature awakening, taking its time and space to breathe. The Band: Matjaž (classic guitar, vocals), Robi (drums), Matej (electric guitar), Timi (bass guitar), Jure (violin)
Letošnjo Živo književnost posvečamo sodelavcu Damjanu Bizilju aka DJ Bizzyju, ki nas je lani zapustil.
Damjan Bizilj aka DJ Bizzy (1972–2023) je leta 1995 postal član ekipe DJ Umeka, Absense (pozneje Consumer Recreation). Pod njegovim vplivom je hitro razvil lasten didžejski in producentski slog. Vrtel je na številnih velikih zabavah z znanimi didžeji, kot so Jeff Mills, Richie Hawtin, Adam Beyer, Marco Carola, Chris Liebing, DJ Rush, idr. Z DJ Dojajo sta leta 1998 začela ustvarjati svojo glasbo pod imenom Temponauta in ustanovila založbo Temponautika. DJ Bizzy je bil velik ljubitelj vinilk in je več let vrtel na treh mešalnih mizah z FX. Njegov slog je združeval tehno, elektro, elektro house, cliks'n'cuts'n'minimal'n'dub'n'ambiental'n'nameit. Kombiniranje mešalk in računalnika (efx in več digitalnih instrumentov) na različne načine s produkcijo v realnem času je močno okrepilo njegov nastop in prineslo nov, svež pojem didžeja kot nekonvencionalnega DJ nastopa v živo ... Bizzy je bil tudi ustanovitelj gibanj, kot so Astrodisco, Unizzon, Dataminions, Ouroborots, Rotor (The rotors – Phonophobia) in Chilli space. Damjan Bizilj je sodeloval tudi z eno najprepoznavnejših slovenskih glasbenih skupin, Laibach.
This year's Living Literature Festival is dedicated to Damjan Bizilj aka DJ Bizzy who passed away last year.
Damjan Bizilj aka DJ Bizzy (1972–2023) became a member of DJ Umek's Absense team (later Consumer Recreation) in 1995. Influenced by DJ Umek he soon developed his own specific DJ and production style. He played at many big parties with well-known DJs, such as Jeff Mills, Richie Hawtin, Adam Beyer, Marco Carola, Chris Liebing, DJ Rush, etc. With DJ Dojaja, they started producing their own music in 1998 under the alias Temponauta and created their own record label Temponautika. DJ Bizzy was a vinyl junkie and played on three turntables with FX for many years. His turntable DJ-ing spanned styles such as techno, electro, electro house, cliks'n'cuts'n'minimal'n'dub'n'ambiental'n'nameit. Agglomerating turntables and computer (efx and many digital instruments), using many different approaches with real-time producing, greatly upgraded his performance and brought us a new, fresh idea of a DJ becoming a nonconventional DJ live act ... Bizzy was also the founder of movements, such as Astrodisco, Unizzon, Dataminions, Ouroborots, Rotor (The rotors – Phonophobia) and Chilli space, among others. Damjan Bizilj also collaborated with one of the most recognizable Slovenian musical groups, Laibach.
