In functional programming, fold refers to a family of higher-order functions that analyze a recursive structure through use of a given combining operation, recombine the results of recursively processing its constituent parts, building up a return value. Map represents an associative abstract data type composed of a collection of key, value pairs.
This is exactly what is happening with the cultural scene at the very moment. We systematically and methodically change concepts, mix online and offline life and try to offer an optimal solution for events and cultural enjoyment for all participants.

## Dähn/Maos
The two musicians have just released a solo album each. Now they are back in the studio working on a duo album. Electric cello and electric guitar, lots of effects, loops and grooves.
They are going to present brand new tracks and experimental collages.
## das Shining
das Shining collective is a group of interdisciplinary media and computer experts who studied media informatics together in Tübingen before expanding their expertise in other academic fields. The group is always looking for new opportunities to let its creativity run free in a challenging way. ## Kitz
KITZ uses a deceptively simple combination of gritty electronic sounds and vintage- sounding synth lines paired with haunting vocal melodies to create an evocative journey through light and dark.
Kitz (Anna Illenberger)has made herself a name in recent years as a vocalist in the experimental pop field in Stuttgart,Germany.
KiTZ acts within a musical genre that is constantly reinventing itself, innovating, and mixing spaces with other types of arts, its search has become an exploration, it likes to develop spaces around each song, something that leaves as a result what she calls an "organic vibration".
With KiTZ, Anna Illenberger plays a one woman show. Rhythms, samples and bass that she triggers live to an "organic electronic experience". She likes to keep things minimal and turns her voice to the center of attention in this project, singing songs about self-empowerment, courage, authenticity and expressing "difficult" moments such as self-doubt or fear.
