Melodies in my head

Melodies in My Head is an audiovisual performance that blends pop, electro, anthropology, dance, and film into a unique concert experience. Created by Thomas Burkhalter and Daniel Jakob, the project explores the emotions and challenges of living in a time shaped by global crises, climate change, and social upheaval.
