Miriam Raggam
young visual artist, joined esc for a year and is also involved in radio; i met her because she participated in a workshop i gave a few years ago; ” i dont have a really defined method of working, i like pads to scribble and when a theme suggests itsels, i or we (i really like working with others) think about what and how to transport it. so (hopefully) the technical method is often differently.
yet i worked with media and installations most of the times… but that might change.”

Gerhild Steinbuch
born 1983 in Múdling, lives in Vienna. Writes sometimes prose (Bachmannpreis 2005) but mostly plays: Nach dem glűcklichen Tag (2004, Theater Graz/Steirischer Herbst), schlafengehn (2006, Schauspiel Essen), kopftot (2006, Staatstheater Mainz). Developing a character always starts with sounds that later turn into a certain use of grammar in one’s language.
