They also interpreted and adapted the text to the stage with the help of the dramaturge Simon Hatab and the French theatre collective La Phenomena, in a dialogue with the work of Jean-Jacques Rousseau and the philosopher Jacques Rancière, as well as the music of Mozart in The Marriage of Figaro (1786), culminating in a performance at Sands Films Studio in London.

An audio essay and documentary which follows a group of students from King’s College London as they translate The Manifesto of Equals (1796) by Sylvain Maréchal from one language, time and context into another, but also to the stage in the presentation of Performing Utopia. Written and produced by Patrick Bernard, it explores how politics, theatre and translation transform our understanding of the world, and reflect a desire to make words and ideas manifest.

Promises was a Canadian-based pop group that was founded 1978 in Thousand Oaks, California. The members were siblings Leslie
Maria Knauer (born August 20, 1957, Vancouver, vocals, bongos), Jed Knauer (born July 17, 1955, Toronto, guitar, piano) and Benny
Knauer (born October 21, 1958, Vancouver, keyboards and vocals).

Promises was formed, recorded and produced by Steve Verroca, who leased the group's album to EMI EAR Holland. In February 1979,
soft rock single "Baby It's You" became a smash hit around the world, especially in Europe, where it reached number 4 in the German
charts, and Promises received a Gold album there for selling more than 260,000 units. The song was also hugely popular in Australia,
largely due to the programming of its promotional video on Sunday evening television music show Countdown.
It also reached number one on the New Zealand Singles Chart for five weeks. "Baby It's You" was a success on South African television.

With their second single Lets Get Back Together being much less successful (only reaching number 18 in Germany), and Leslie wanting
the group to become more of a punk band, they broke up.
Curved Air are an English progressive rock group formed in 1970 by musicians from mixed artistic backgrounds, including classical, folk,
and electronic sound. The group decided the name using a shortened version of Terry Riley's composition A rainbow in curved air.
The resulting sound of the band is a mixture of progressive rock, folk rock, and fusion with classical elements.

Curved Air released eight studio albums, the first three of which broke into the UK Top 20, and had a hit single with Back Street Luv
(1971) which reached number 4 in the UK Singles Chart.

Line-up / Musicians on Back Street Luv

• Sonja Kristina / lead vocals
• Francis Monkman / lead guitar, keyboards, VCS3 synthesizer
• Darryl Way / electric violin, piano , vocals

The song ... And More, also on Flow Motion, repeats the chorus of this track, and was included as a B-side to the single release.

Man Who Dies Every Day is from Ha!-Ha!-Ha!, (1977) the second album by British pop group Ultravox, at that time known as
