Amateur Audience Absorbent Academy d.o.o.
In view of the increasingly serious global situation regarding screen-viewing habits, we are declaring an emergency in theatre auditoriums. Across the whole world the use of the internet, social media, AI and quantum-systems, binge-watching at home, on the streets day and night are spreading rapidly, raising serious moral, ethical and worldview issues.
That is why these two courageous stage artists, Gergey and Lovro – as Don Quixotes and Sancho Panzas of their time – wish to draw attention, through a series of theatrical lecture-performances, to the crisis, the absurdities and the shortcomings of consciously manipulated community life.
The ancient spiritually connected deep-seeker communities, as they were existing together in peace for thousands of years, now threatened. The emotional, mental and even the physical well-being of our children, adolescents and nevertheless grown ups are in danger, emotionally crippled, frustrated generations are coming if we don’t act immediately.
The manipulative power of algorithms undermines the well-being of intuitive, vibrant social and tribal communities, whilst public reactions to political or global events are slow and clumsy.
The aim of the Amateur Audience Absorbent Academy is to provide today’s generations – including children, young adults as well as middle-aged people and likely the seemingly elderly too – with captivating educational audience-based experiences that fill the gaps in cultural life, free from prejudice and compromise.

We are Obviously Orienting the Observation (OOO) towards the most difficult challenges humanity ever faced with:
CHALLENGE No.1.
Create Sacral Temples of Watching, Feeling & Reacting without fear of judgement, just by fearless open emotional opinions of the spirit without discriminating the freedom of the soul
- by open legitimacy of the public, by the public, for the public
- re-sacralizing the de-sacralized theatre
- putting back the audience into its lawful place
- get back the power of the lowest status members of the theatrical hierarchy
- may we have the courage to change the course of history (CCCH) by AAA d.o.o.
CHALLENGE No.2.
Sit & Watch in Silence while you are at Home Cute Alone??? -SiWatch ? – szivacs means sponge in Hungarian! (pronounced as sivatch, means pejoratively, slang –
IT SUCKS !
- Never Alone or Never Again – the theory of NA (thesis),
- Never say Never – the contradictions of NA (antithesis)
- Never say Again Never, Alone – the unsolvable conflict of NANA
(synthesis versus effectus mutuae compensationis – question of a comma)
CHALLENGE No.3.
By sharing space, attention and time we become more than the pieces of the whole … The codex of sharing and not taking, but giving, receiving & giving again.
- By supporting and attending our theatrical lectures about theatre and audience you
become a stake-holder of the shared knowledge of the professors, the re-sacralized stage space + the open public opinion & yourself too.
⅓ of all our common inventions is naturally yours* - With the help of shamanistic rituals from ancient mysterious times we turn the heart-chakras towards the collective creative mind & towards sincere generous giving-receiving procedures.
* actually it is more than ⅓, because by being you – you are representing at least 50% of yourself, and the rest of the students also meanwhile ⅓ is ~33% … so you are going to carry a much bigger percentage of share-holding than you ever imagined

Profesor Polca Imre (hu)
A long time professor Polca Imre spent research on many levels of Space, Time and all sort of alignments of these two components of theatre.
Uncompromisedly he marched towards his goal & became expert in the field of Observing & Sensing in the famous university city of Padova, Italy at the Watch-Art-Academy by successfully finishing his educations on the See the Invisible Sea Faculty, where he wrote his diplomawork titled: “The contra-effects of the 4th & 5th walls – Quantum-deficiency of above-average audience’s emotional reciprocity.”
Later he shortly became a practically everyday performer in hospitals, where he was allowed to sing and play, not just on ukulele, not just for children and teenagers. By observing the unobservable he realized that there is so much more in this field of art, so he decided to join the team of ZaCrknt – DSKU, where after a few years of struggling with careless watching-style and compressed reaction-culture of Slovenian, north-Italian, Austrian, German, Croatian and Hungarian audiences — he finally decided to create the AAAA d.o.o. to educate & train common, wealthy or emotionally deprived people world-wide, but at least in the region of middle-europe and west-balkan — how to become a good & critical audience for theatre and to raise awareness of the real importance of being together in a small place – like in Schroedinger’s Cat-box.
His pedagogical motto is: “Watch out how you’re watching me watching you. I am you!”

Profesor Ocvrt Mojmir (sl)
Professor Ocvrt Mojmir, who came on as a substitute, began his career as a devoted theatregoer and, having watched far too many theatre productions, became an enthusiastic fan of the performing arts and acting. He later founded his own highly successful children’s hygiene education and entertainment company, a venture called ‘From BIGGR-Ass Floods BIGGR-Shit’. As the founder of his Critical Children’s Theatre — often referred simply as: WHAAASSHHH … IT ! — he brought countless moments of joy to the hearts of his young, cheerful audience, much to the delight of parents and nursery teachers alike, who didn’t have to worry about the environmental issues and sexual safety educations after the kids saw any WHAAAASSHHIT shows.
Lovro somehow also turned into ZaCrknt & DSKU, it is also a great pleasure to welcome him, as an assistant teacher at AAAA d.o.o., into the ranks of our audience educator.
Lovro’s pre-Pedagogicalexclamation is: Why wasn’t I born as an introvert ?!
