How can we extend our lives as long as possible? Some seek solace in Botox, vitamin supplements, or yoga. Others find solace in life after death. Brain Freeze spotlights our longing for eternal life.
Don't expect a classic magic show from Tim Oelbrandt. He blends hypnosis, theater, and film projections with live music by Lili Grace. The magic blurs the lines between fiction and reality. Black Mirror, but real.
During Brain Freeze, you'll be constantly on the edge of your seat, until you might even be invited onto the stage yourself. Tim reads your deepest thoughts, he manipulates free will, and downloads your memories without warning. Even those memories aren't safe with him around. Experience this—you won't believe your eyes!

Sisters Nelle and Dienne Bogaerts create exceptionally captivating work with two voices, cello, keyboards, and electronics. In 2012, they reached the finals of Humo's Rock Rally and opened for Trentemøller, CocoRosie, and Nils Frahm, among others. They composed music for several theater productions and also released their first EP. Nelle and Dienne join Tim on stage, creating the perfect dark-pop atmosphere.
