WEINZETTL & RUDLE: “Extras of Madness”

Is your cell phone up to date? Is your laptop charged? No? Too bad—then the coffee machine will unfortunately remain locked, because you won’t get any coffee without first watching an online ad.
Tough luck.
Welcome to the new normal—welcome to the next level of domestic self-optimization.

Weinzettl & Rudle—reliable barometers of relationship madness for decades—have observed: Marital madness no longer needs us; it now runs fully automatically. Our new task? To stumble through everyday life as extras and pretend we still have any influence.
We don’t. But we can laugh about it.

Forget spontaneity! Anyone who wants to get into an argument with their neighbor in the stairwell soon will have to register it with the “Office of Domestic Compliance” 24 hours in advance (required description: “Loud screaming, profanity, alcohol consumption”).

Weinzettl & Rudle demonstrate what’s in store for all of us when the algorithm calls the shots: We’ll then live in a world where you can’t even open your front door until you’ve earned your daily “10,000-step” badge.

Escalation or soon to be everyday life?

“Extras in a Madhouse”

Anyone who can already check in a suitcase at the airport without a hitch today will surely be able to maneuver a Boeing 737 out of its parking spot tomorrow!
Do-it-yourself is our success.
An evening for everyone who already suspects that their vacuum cleaner is eavesdropping on them and their refrigerator is secretly tattling to the doctor about their eating habits. Monica Weinzettl and Gerold Rudle are back—and they have bad news: Life is now an app. And we’ve all forgotten the password.
Warning: As bystanders to the madness, Weinzettl & Rudle observe the future prospects of everyday life. And don’t say at the end that nobody warned you.
Come on by. It’ll be fun.
This isn’t a request—it’s a system update.
