Human beings are able to learn. Animals also. Plush toys, too? A non-visible teacher tries to teach Rainer Maria Rilke´s poem Autumn to a plush toy. In the process, the stuffed animal develops an exclusively linguistically mediated personality of its own. It follows the text, fails, refuses, revolts. The teacher, in turn, yells, flatters, screams. An absurd pedagogy en miniature. (Meinhard Rauchensteiner)
