week four, four bye

crazy day, crazy week. crazy month. everything is really crazy. well, not that crazy. pretty straight-up actually.



up until that hailstorm we'd had a good week of sun.

during the hail storm team member 'J.K.' showed us how to hear the rhythm of the hailstorm by putting an empty paint bucket on your head and running out into the hailstorm. that was interesting and should be done more often, by as many people as possible. he also starred in my new film, Hail / Hagel / Haargel, with team member 'P.E.' playing a supporting role.



team member 'T' left yesterday to go back to hamburg. he is missing out on the cold weather we have today. too bad him. we are very thankful of him and will miss him.





...with his pan of ham spots.





...paparazzi shots of 'T' chippin' away.

And a shot of the thing...


and a last shot of the stand of things yesterday...



...which was actually the day before yesterday. whatever. one more week of figure painting standing on a platform lift or cherry picker. honestly, it doesnt get any better than this.

leaving the house in 20 minutes

...i could use some food.
getting screwy. the image does this right turn around the center ice/fischer v. erlach, breaks apart, cracks open and hatches...the chicken who escaped...drinking a can of beer...spinning...bake the details, the selection, the song text.

i think i have to write something up there in english again.

i will try and speak with the school director about arranging something where the interested students can participate. the industrial band should play sometime this week.

sunday 3


nothing better to do on an empty sunday but this.
thread. the connection. the underlying drama. greg. a ghost wash. wind and a pile of dust waiting. 1 wish.
...its sunday morning. i've had coffee but the question is, 'do I need more?'.
shoes are empty.

Inna tow cheequin!

drifting in and out of the cape, boston, muncie, new york, chicago, K.C., northampton, wien, california...
technically the next place on the list is somewhere i have never been before. for this i must wait.

drop pass...leporello unfolding into the undefined...key to fun...kim on the diving board...geometric barrage...telephone call...der kaffee trinker...flash to cat fischermann...implied intimacy...the song text...paradise frissör...flip-chart laden...menabuoi...flashback to father's words of wisdom...Puff!!!...spirals/clouds...end of movie...circle in square/square in circle...

day 15

...got some clouds mapped out, and the gitter...the grid...gonna do a grid of images and open space with 2 grid pannels cut out by the smoke. the images on thee grid will all have differeent top/bottom. thats just the way it is, and it will be good visible from the street. comic...ausschnitt...empty space...not sure what role it plays other than a grid, a system...something suggesting system...something suggesting something.

the smoke and clouds come out of the truck. the truck delivers charles and kim from point a to point b. a was the grill party. b should be somewhere else than the 'wüsten einkaufszentrum', but they roll in anyhow.

the comic story is important, but not the main thing.
i would like to expand on this, but it is still brewing. lots of suggestive meaning and wisdom, but real solid head to nail with the hammer.

will be working on that today, this sunny 19th of may 2011.

curious?

takin'(took) a quick trip

couple of fotos from last week...couple of fotos from last weekend...the ceiling already looks different...expanding. lets see what kind of hully-gully happens today.
looking forward to the sun...and the progress!!!
greetings!


whats that Cher song? it gets sung like someone with broken off ends of plastic spoons in the mouth...the notes and words have to find a way through the curved plastic spoon ends, causing a new and almost experimental sound. what are the words, do you believe in life after love?...just checked. believe. it is the earworm in my head this morning. i have to change this.



this photo is from friday after work. TeER and i jumped a plane to stanstead--->northampton(england). we had the lucky chance to celebrate the birthday of mrs. pilgrimm. it was a blast!






and





thank you northampton!!!!

Title?

funky thing is that there is a lot still to do. we are not halfway done. am i panic-ing.
i am also not panic-ing.





time for another fuggin espresso.

Its hard not to slide towards a Fischer von Ehrlach handling of the space. it is most definately not a baroque place, but it does yearn for history. its place, placement and partner buildings in this city give a kind of brand-spanking-new-ness feeling, and just that fact gives it a sense of history, or relationship to something in the past. there are four corners to the ceiling. it is not symmetrical. when finished, it will be a mixture of meeting place and bicycle/motorcycle parking place, place to keep the seats dry...meeting places are still important as is keeping our asses dry. there is not yet an ass umbrella...plastic underwear...out of the question, and there really are very few things worse than having a wet ass.

going to northampton england for a weekend birthday party of a good friend. there is a round church from around 1100 something...inspired by a crusaders visit to jerusalem's Holy Sepulchre church, a round church with 18 columns and...look it up on wiki yourself...

in any case, i want to go inside it. i have just been outside it until now...missing the opening times, or the church watcher guy, who actually is a nice guy...he just works according to the official opening hours. problem in northampton is that the nichts can be long and wots occuring.

again, its time to blow this clambake. another coffee would rule, but time is ticking.
