At the extreme of all extremes. In a position so peculiar and so foreign that objectivity is allowed to penetrate only the upper layers of its eventfulness. Experience is subjective and remote as if reality is on a silver screen, observed from a close distance and the main character of the show is the spectator- silent, assimilating, still uneager to dive in before reading the guidelines. Searching for a point of connection. Waiting for some unexpected hand to shake them up and drag them back to the TV screen where they do belong. Into the “now” of “now”. Far from the concepts – past and future – far from the confortable imaginary idea of a home that used to be. Accept the geography of current events, consider differences as a distorting useless noise, give your shy and stubborn desire to hide and be invisible a loud “no go”. Coming back to a comfortable place in your mind is not applicable for the time being. Is it necessary? As the flight has just begun returning your ticket to the flight attendant will do you no good. Your are already on board.

Thank you for flying with Face-it Air! Try to forget about all emergency exits. Smoking is not stricktly prohibited.

My inspiration year has begun.

Extremely Loud & Incredibly close

See that book? Read it! Find it, buy it, borrow it, steal it and read it! It took me one day and a half to start and finish it - a day and a half because I had to work 8 hours, and go to the bathroom occasionally. I hope Foer will continue writting like that. And if you haven't read Everything is Illuminated - do it! You wont regret a single page.

Hm..

"Why would you leave your home to find a new home?
Why would you leave your life to find a new life?
Why would you leave your friends and the people who love you to find new friends and new people to love?"

"American Graffiti" (1973)

Somebody somewhere 30 years ago read my mind....

Ok, after checking out the entire dicography of Lemon Jelly I've found out that the London duo DOES NOT HAVE A BAD TRACK!. This is definatelly my favourite one. Recommended to all melomaniacs and fervent slow-beat-ers!

Cien años de soledad

Nothing is more pleasurable than reading Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Hermann Hesse and Doris Lessing in orginal.
Bedank en tot ziens!

Stranger

I enjoyed every single scene of this movie! Funnily, I could recognise myself in him and her and the other him in almost all situations. The little joys, peculiarities and hells of travelling. In somebody's flat. At work. Arriving at a new city. Playing cards with an old lady. Walking on a windy beach. In the cinema. Traveling in a car with well-known strangers. Finding yourself in thousands of odd moments shared with thousands of odd people. A foreigner. In paradise?
