A collection of songs written, recorded, mixed and then performed by Anna Kinbom in different settings since 2014. Sometimes performed with the lyrics and accompanying music/karaoke videos projected onto the wall, for the audience to sing along. Sometimes performed in public space, with or without audience, also shown as installations.
1000 Words is a flow of words, a karaoke lecture. An attempt to, with performance, lyrics, music and rhythm and keep the audiences’ attention through the performance. The themes of the lyrics are the football world and art world, cyberfeminism, the bank district in Stockholm, water and aerodynamics, philosophy and love, etc. Through different topics, both political, poetic and philosophic attempt to not tip over to one or the side, but stay on a line, like in a balance act. I want to explore how little one can entertain to still entertain. When I write my songs I think a lot about childhood, when you sing, you are exposed, like a child.
