The QV project by Alfred 23 Harth and Massimo Magee is a collaborative, multimedia, transdimensional conjuring of a temporally agnostic alternate version of the Quo Vadis restaurant in Soho, London. It takes imagined constellations of circumstances from different periods of the site’s history combined with carefully chosen selections from Alfred Harth's large archive of fearless artistic exploration in a wide range of media and styles over the decades, and smashes them together in the particle accelerator of unbounded artistic license, bridging history and present, future and never-to-be, performance and artefact, sight and sound, improvisation and preparation, narrative and abstraction, material and magical.

Harth and Magee were originally scheduled back in pre-pandemic times to perform an inter-disciplinary duo show in Kassel for the concert series Chamäleon Verbindungen. What started in the process for an on-site performance has turned into a long distance-collaboration over several months, now resulting in this video.
