PERFORMANCE

With *Subservices*, Freynhagen and Schellmann invite you to pray and plead, celebrating trial and error, cluelessness and self-sacrifice. From Pro-motion to E-motion, to De-votion and Sun-lotion, the two success models guide us through *Dis-counting it right* with the right offers, examining service and performance, changing course, earning and serving, gathering mushrooms, points, and experiences, reviewing the conditions, assessing and estimating, working and processing, queuing up and tuning in, veering off course, prophesying it, and changing it—with the bargain Bible as the offering in the break room.

 

"I know nothing with any certainty but the sight of the stars makes me dream." (Vincent van Gogh).

 

We regulate it with rules: the market, the course, the index, the contract, the commandment, the sales market. The high is healing. Offering, forbidding, bidding. An identity, a sermon, a *preaching*, a *brace for impact*, a mess, a real mess with maximum x-mess factor. Everybody welcome!
