Genesis Breyer P-Orridge, Tony Conrad and Morrison Edley Live in Berlin February 19, 2011

The Forum Expanded section of the Berlinale invited industrial music pioneer Genesis Breyer P-Orridge (Throbbing Gristle, Psychic TV, Thee Majesty), minimalist filmmaker and musician Tony Conrad and former Psychic TV member, percussionist Morrison Edley to perform a live set at the Hebbel am Ufer theater in Berlin. Breyer P-Orridge is the subject of a documentary by Marie Losier, "The Ballad of Genesis and Lady Jaye" about him and his late wife, Jaqueline Breyer. The two explored the possibilities of "pandrogeny", or overcoming gender and other boundaries to become one unified being.
The visuals (by Losier, Bradley Eros and Sebastien S. Santamaria, if I correctly informed) refer to the couple's merging.

See here an excerpt of the opening piece.

Sorry about the shaky video.
