I am not sure, if this really counts, but it's too special not to try. This picture is no fake, so real and a very own moment, I didn't set it up or manipulate it. 


And still this photo, in it's glow and composition, always makes me think of the 'the last supper'. - I think it's so funny, that my sink makes me think of 'the last supper'. 


And mine might be a fake 'last supper', but maybe even more real in the end. Who knows!

I am still very busy searching!

Right on! I mean/ I scream: NO WAY!!!
And if so, wow, what a 'painful' sign: 

Today my camera fell and broke, what a disaster and what a wonder, I didn't start crying!

so I am questioning, whether this is supposed to be a sign to quit making stupid photos or a sign to start painting again, instead of taking pictures or maybe both.

The little problem was, that I was much more enthusiastic about the idea, that the strategie would say: 


'Faced with NO choice, do both!'


(so maybe I did this one a bit too laid-back)


Anyways: 'Be more in love with summer!'


1. For the love of summer - or it's colours or beach vacation or the smell of sunlotion or because most of the people prefere summer over winter (be more generous) or because I can eat things out of the garden or because my car prefers summer over winter ( I assume) because you can still sit outside in the middle of the night, whatever there are millions of good reasons....


















2. Or I/You can love summer, because I assume without summer we wouldn't have winter! and winter is a super hero!!!!

I have a beautiful collection of trashy new years eve pictures, I love them! They are everything but perfect, so maybe that's what makes them so perfect. everybody tries to have a unique special night - it's so unreal, but so pretty and all these lights, glitter and sparkles, you can see all these people who are very drunk, do/say stupid things and half of them will feel bad next day. It's a weird night in collective unrealistic behaviour, with high hopes, covered in sparkles and glitter. It's so pretty!

I made this video about three years ago, it also contains some new years eve photographs.

* go to Danmark this fall


,was the last point on my list. I will try to go sometimes this year. I miss Danmark, I used to go there about once a year with family and friends. The last time I went, is about four years ago. 


Though when I think about Danmark, how they deal with the Schengen Agreement these days and that they seriously reestablish border checks - I am getting a very sick feeling inside. 


I don't know what's going on in Europe lately, it's not only Danmark and Holland with their gouvernments.


But when I think about Danmark I also think about Kopenhagen, the ocean, Louisiana Museum. I think this museum is my favorite, as a child you could enter a secret kids museum through a closet, in which you could paint, draw or make sculptures - I thought it was very cool back than!




'next to the sick feeling'

I am failing here.
This is a sucking note. 
It doesn't seem to work out well. 
I tried. 


I have this note for a few days now. I've been thinking about it, alone and with friends and I didn't came up with a satisfying idea. 


I think, it's almost impossible, cause everything is sort of linked or based on or to your personality.  There were a lot of ideas, but after proofing every of them, not a single one managed to stand there without personal influence.  


so the only thing I could come up with: 'genes'. You could give yourself credit for your genes.

well first you think obviously. then you think it over and discuss it and at some point it seems to be lacking everywhere. a line only has two sides, when there are boundaries at the end of the line - so two parts will be devided. But since outside of something, there is always something else (for example, there is a line on a paper and it really goes from one side to the other side, it will devide the paper in two sides. but maybe the paper is lying on a table and you can walk around the table, the two sides are not devided anymore), you will be always able to go around the line. I think it's more complex. supposedly the universe is endless, so we will never know where 'the' line, if we had one, would end. I mean if it's endless the line is not ending, there won't be two seperate sides right, but we cannot think that, because we cannot think an endless image. 
besides that, if we think about kant and his 'raum und zeit' idea. we always need a space around everything otherwise nothing could be (exist). so around the universe must also be a space and this thought goes on and on and probably the universe isn't a line, so.
I was/am just not so sure about the two sides.

gys and I thought, that I needed to do something which I usually wouldn't do. He said, climb on the roof - he knows I am too scared to do it. I thought about it for a moment, but I in the end, was too scared, it was also dark and we were out and had some drinks earlier that evening - I thought it's not a really good idea for now. 


So we decided to go for the pipe. It's usually him smoking the pipe, but we decided to swich. 
It was not fun.

You will be nervous.
Not always when you are nervous, you will be standing at an edge, but always when you are standing at an edge, you will be nervous (except of: you are suicidal or on drugs or in any other strange condition). 


Besides that, my impression is, once you are highly nervous about a work (maybe you hit an edge or crossed some boundaries), it often turnes out to be one of your strongest works. (Maybe) edges push us to trust our instincts and ask us for very quick but definite decisions.


(just 'thinking without consequences' here - this is an easy excuses - therefore far away from edges! this is a perfect example for the opposite - at an edge, you don't have a safety net - you don't talk yourself silly out.)
