StrangeShorts in Cologne!

...denn am 29.11.08 ist es wieder so weit. Strange Shorts, das Bernsteinzimmer der deutschen Kurzfilmfestivals kehrt ins gleißende Licht der Öffentlichkeit zurück.

Die Wochen im Untergrund, mit all den durchwachten Nächten auf dreckigen Matratzen sind vorbei und das Programm, bearbeitet von Dutzenden Restaurateuren mit kleinen Pinseln und großen Hacken, steht bereit.

Unterschlupf bietet uns einmal mehr Peter in Gottes Grüne Wiese (Bismarckstraße, Belgisches Viertel)

Heidewitzka Herr Kapitän!

Ab 21 Uhr werden hier erneut 10 Kurzfilme im AK 47 Takt aufs Publikum geschossen. YEAH !

Neben den 10 Kurzfilmleckerbissen gehört die unvergleichliche Moderation von Doktor Bomber, Interviews mit den anwesenden Filmemachern und kurzweilige Ratespiele seit jeher zu StrangeShorts wie Wörter, die sich auf das was Uhren machen, reimen.

Also, kommt vorbei, sagt es Freunden, Familien, Vorgesetzen und Bekannten, ach ja und wer wen kennt der jemanden kennt WEITERSAGEN!

Und danach gibts noch nen Maskenball

Barcelona Rivival on coming Saturday (15.11)

Hola my dear Friends,

on coming Saturday, the 15th you are invited to come to the Barcelona Revival Party in my flat (Helsingforser Str. 17).
In fact in is not supposed to be a "normal" Meeting, so i want the evening to feel real BCN, to make it to a real nice theme evening.

So, feel free to open your mind and
- come along with a dress tipico de Catalunya (who likes yellow/red stripes?) and dress as erotico de possibile, haha!
- bring some catalan/spanish recipies/intigrients/food (ill do some Sangria and Boquadillos, hurr!)
- and of course some music (have u ever heard from Vampires Weekend or catalan Rumpa, Ska!)

Anyway, the doors of Helsingforser Palace will open at around 9pm. So, letz dance some Rumpa and enjoy the spirit of drinking Claras and eating tortillas!

...and dance some Polonaise!

Geeting ripped at Reeperbahn

Throw a coin and decide whether we wanna hitchhike or go by train. Yaniv suggested to decide how to go to Hamburg. But finally i rejected. It might not that easy to hitchhike: 2 guys and one heavy backpack - who is supposed to give us a lift? Finally we played safe and shared a weekend ticket with 3 others.

When we arrived in Hamburg we soonish recognized that clocks work differently here. We have been "afraid" by the cold temper of the people over there. So, we tried to make them smile and for sure fooled them a lot. What should we do of not being tracked down by them. But finally nothing helped. The so-called "sound of silence" was everywhere. Anyway, the night came in and we gave it another trial, this time with alcohol, it may heat them up. We just wanted to find a concert, should not be that difficult in here. But nobody could recommend us anything, everybody just was concentrated of going to the well-known red-light area, the Reeperbahn - the Gomorrah plainly. So we went there as well. But after a walk through the Reeperbahn we got fed up soon: too many fucked up people over there: excessively drinking, loudly yelling, aggressively acting. Not for us...not this time!

Yaam Worldpeace Day

We want the immediate stop of all tracing and monitoring! Fight against the consume terror! And for sure WORLDPEACE!

...was the appeal of the Yaam WorldPeaceDay in Berlin. Fuck that was great: Together with Yanif, Agata and Irena we went into the train to Zoologischer Garden to see what the hell is that bunch of costumized people doing... I felt nervous and unsuspecting at the same time.
Anyway, we occupied the train completely. The bass was boosting, we spend kisses and smiles to everyone who wants to get into the train, tried to sell polystyrene letters. To sum up, we collected credits for the world peace. The rules have been very easy:
1. Kiss pedestriants - 1 Point
2. Kiss Police - 10 Points
3. Selling a polystyrene letter - 10 Points
But next to these rules, they have been several tasks which are intended to raise the peoples awareness. So we are supposed to enter the media markt and switch on everything what makes sound, relabeling the H&M clothes price shields to make the sellable for 1.99Euro, protesting for "Tofuschnitzel" inside the McDonnalds and finally show our asses to the direction of the Reichstag.

Finally, i feel something is moving, so letz be part of it!

Back for Good in Warszawa

Weekend was watching for me, so i got magnetized by the capital again. So, finally i got to known very nice places in Praga (The spider and several other bars) in the center near University and somewhere in the south. Ahh, that was the best: On saturday i went to a very great Couchsurf/HC Meeting in Klinika (somewhere in the south, dont ask me how i went there). Nice people from all over the world, but mostly Poles met there for drinks, hot dance and even more, hurrr! Warszawa i can tell you, next year you'll see me again, thats for sure!

Lodz, For God sake!

"Never go to the east of Lodz" kamil told me when he picked me up from the central station in Lodz. "OK, but what should happen?" i asked him twice. "I may not see you again!" he replied emphatically. After he left me i went down east to face the face of Evil, Torture and Death and i survived again, hurrr! Not a bad thing for a German, isnt it?
But what should i do? When i want to visit old friends i have to be confrontated with the area they live in, so i catched up (Ups, i did it again) with Pawel and Magda for dinner and out of the sudden somebody shouted "Pomoce" (Help me!) , cuz he got punched from somebody in the streets. So, pretending to be british citizen again! The next day Kamil invited me for a lift through the woods in Lodz (pronounced like "woods", thats why its so funny) and showed me some crazy (again!) and dangerous bici routes over there. Watch the death road! After that: Big Dinner at Kamils place, the mother ivited me and i eat so much like never before. Uff, full like a bucket i had really problems to move, but i got a lift back to the centre and the guys helped me by carrying me to bed. Next day i left back to Warszawa, looking forward for coming weekend!
