food for thought

Today and yesterday i realised how important it is to do a job you like to do, that fills your brains with content....eheh

well, this summer i did sort of a brainless job and since yesterday i work again at my old job with radical media. We make commercials and short documentaries for the dropping knowledge project. I am in the research group and we mainly look for interesting picture and video material. Today browsed tons of interesting documentary material on globalisation themes and enjoyed it;-

My sister came on visit this weekend. We went to Haus am Waldsee where my future ideal nomadic house is located. Its the loftcube designed by Werner Aisslinger

My friend Leila helped it building, pretty cool I think.

we went for some more culture at KW where there were some nice early video works of Richard Sierra

                                                                                

  "I probably had to shoot these films so as to make the difference to sculpture clearer to me" said Sierra once.     

There is in front of KW also this strange temporary hotel

 Marienbad. Apparently it functions as a real hotel and they did concerts inside earlier this year. Its pretty spooky though.

and to show some of the more clichés of Berlin. We went to see some more architecture in the neighbourhood of one of the leftovers from the Berlin Wall at Bernauer Strasse. Bernauer Strasse is one of these typical streets which separates two Berlin's districts: Mitte in the East and Wedding in the West.
