I have a new crush.
on this movie, it completely turned on all my emotions that i had when I arrived the first time in China. Its imagery is surreal but so deeply chinese, something that probably doesn't exist any more but that you can still smell in the air in a day of light rain.

Tonight i bumped into some movies that impressed me much during the last Art Biennale in Venezia in 2009, maybe the few that really left me a more impressive mark between all the things you could see there

Steve McQueen, "Giardini"

Shaun Gladwell, "Interceptor surf sequence"

Mir ist bewusst was Freiheit bedeutet

Folge dem Weg geradeaus,
meide die Tiefen des Meeres,
doch hab ich solche Worte hinter mir gelassen.

Der Mond scheinet auf jedem Weg,
wie die in der Dunkelheit wie Diamanten schwimmenden Fische;

heiß wie durch Zufall Mensch – und hier bin ich.

Was hab ich zu befürchten,
mit was zu kämpfen,
bald ist es Zeit die Lasten zu legen.

Erteile mir noch mehr Kraft,
Kraft zur Liebe.

Mir ist bewusst was Freiheit bedeutet,
mir ist bewusst was Freiheit bedeutet.

while trotting around harajuku i luckily bumped into one of the things to see i thought i had no time any more to go check out, Papier Labo, an amazing small shop dedicated to paper in it's purest form and shapes. they sell handmade notebooks, nicely sculptured wooden pencil holders and well designer calendars amongst many other beautiful objects.

few footsteps away is their befriended cafè Tas Yard, where the work of Noritake was shown in a mini-mini-exhibition.
simply simple and depressingly awesome.

the best thing of working with talented friends is that beside stimulating you a lot with their knowledge, they share amazing and hard-to-find things with you.
Virgilio is a maniac when it comes to stop motion animation, he has written his bachelor-thesis about the animation masters of the polish scene.
here are some examples from one of the dvd's he put in my hands the other day.

QSL cards are personalized postcards that were used as a record of contact between CB radio (and other two-way radio) operators. Think of them as a proto-internet, a social network made of sound and paper. They are a little bit postcard, a little bit cartoon/comic art, a little bit mail art, a little bit folk art, a little bit outsider/naive art, a little bit ephemera...

it was already hard to pick up these ones, since they are all so beautiful!

I wasn't in human form … I landed on a planet that I identified as Saturn …

They teleported me and I was down on [a] stage with them.
They wanted to talk with me.
They had one little antenna on each ear. A little antenna over each eye.
They talked to me.

They told me to stop [attending college] because there was going to be great trouble in schools … the world was going into complete chaos … I would speak [through music], and the world would listen. That's what they told me.

Jim Henson is one the fathers of all weirdos doing animation
you can check many of his cool projects he did in the 60's, without getting too much attention from the larger audience until he invented The Muppets.

THE MOUNTAIN sat upon the plain
In his eternal chair,
His observation omnifold,
His inquest everywhere.

The seasons prayed around his knees,
Like children round a sire:
Grandfather of the days is he,
Of dawn the ancestor.
