Hugo
Ball performing at the Cabaret Voltaire, 23rd June 1916
"I wore a specially designed costume. My legs were encased in cothurns
made of luminous blue card-board reaching up to my hips, so that I
looked like an obelisk. Above this I wore a huge cardboard collar,
scarlet inside and gold outside. This was fastened at the throat in such
a manner that I was able to move it like wings by raising and dropping
my elbows. In addition, I wore a tall blue and white striped hat." |
