"Omar Abdul smiled. A cocky, teasing smile. A Cheshire cat smile, as if instead of being perched on a tree branch, the Cheshire cat were out in an open field in a storm. The smile of a young black man, thought Fate, but also a very American smile."

Christmas Decoration at Galeries Lafayette, Paris 2009

noreply@blogger.com (Wern) — Wed, 16 Dec 2009 12:28:00 +0000

Sorry for the prolonged pause - I was on the road for a couple of weeks but will do some catching up the following days and weeks.

To start here's a short video of the Christmas decoration at Galeries Lafayette in Paris. Drunken Easter Bunnies in Pink Champagne! What else do you need for Happy Holidays?

For the Love of ... Fleet Foxes.

all swallowed in their coats
with scarves of red tied round their throats"

Family Album III

noreply@blogger.com (Wern) — Sat, 10 Oct 2009 10:03:00 +0000

Again the grown-up men are always in uniform.

From World War I. Not sure who is a relative in this photo.

There's nearly no notes in the album. As the album hasn't been discovered for so long nobody knows who is who. I like to think that she is one of my relatives though. In any way I love her dress!

Some of the faces are incredible. To me they look sometimes more like mexicans or native americans than Bavarian peasants. Incredible also my grand grandmother sitting proud with these enormous keys on her lab.

Family Album II

noreply@blogger.com (Wern) — Wed, 30 Sep 2009 20:55:00 +0000

My grand grand grandmother. 1847 -1933. The picture was taken around 1875, so it's 130 years old. How many of the trillions of digital files stored on harddiscs today will still be there in 130 years?

Family Album I

noreply@blogger.com (Wern) — Wed, 30 Sep 2009 09:21:00 +0000

When I was recently visiting my family in Bavaria my aunt had discovered an old family album which was hidden for decades. The album cover looks "Jugendstil" so it's probably around 100 years old, although there are even older pictures in it too.

The picture on the right shows my grandmother with her two brothers. Incredible.

Below on the left is my grandmother again sitting on the lap of my grand grandmother.
On the right my grand grandfather. The men are always wearing uniforms on the pictures.

For the Love of Reading ... Cesare Pavese

"Die zwei in der Nacht schliefen, als hätte sie jemand erstochen. Auf dem öden Platz redeten noch ein paar Leuchtreklamen in den leeren Himmel und warfen Reflexe auf die beiden Toten. "Die sind richtig", sagte Oreste "Lehren uns, wie man es macht."

For the Love of ... David Lynch!
