For the Love of Reading... Marguerite Duras - Der Liebhaber

Das Beste am Übernachten in fremden Wohnungen ist manchmal dort Bücher oder Musik zu entdecken, die man so nie gelesen oder gehört hätte. Thanks Katja!


"Manchmal weiß ich: Wenn das Schreiben nicht, alle Dinge vereinend, ein flüchtiges Sprechen in den Wind ist, so ist es nichts." (Duras)



"Die Geschichte meines Lebens gibt es nicht. So etwas gibt es nicht. Es gibt nie einen Mittelpunkt. Keinen Weg, keine Linie. Es gibt weiträumige Orte, von denen man glauben macht, es habe hier jemanden gegeben, das stimmt nicht, es gab niemanden." (Duras)

For the Love of .... Stone Roses - Waterfall

"Today's the day she's sworn
To steal what she never could own"

After Party, Berlin ca 1995

At sunrise under a bridge at the Spree river. On the first picture the wet t-shirt was left to dry by someone dancing and sweating all night.

For the Love of Reading ... Jean-François Lyotard

"Wenn aber das Kind um zu sehen was passiert, den roten Kopf einfach so anstreicht, liebt es die Bewegung, die Farben, die sich ineinander verwandeln, die Flamme, die auflodert, den Glanz des Lichts, den Tod des kleinen Holzstückes, sein Zischen." (Lyotard, Essays zu einer affirmativen Ästhetik)

For the Love of ... B.E.R.G.H.A.I.N.

New York, 1994, Limelight and Sound Factory

Sound Factory: it must be 3 or 4 am in the morning. You could not buy any alcohol, but people seemed to be high on something. There’s a huge dancing crowd of topless male muscle bodies on one side of the floor. The girl on the right picture is standing in line with 15 people desperately waiting to drink water from a fountain.

Breakfast in America, 2008

...at Flavia's place in Echo Park, which was our temporary home through summer 2008. Maybe not what Supertramp imagened 1979 but great and delicious for me.

Ranch, California, 2008

No whining indeed -at least if you are a cowboy.
If not it's fine to cry a river.

Military Parade, New York 1996

Hollywood Boulevard 2007/2008

Hollywood Boulevard is cheesy, dirty, trashy, tacky. The best thing about it is probably that you get to step on the names of people you know from TV.

There's really now reason - but I kind of like it there...


Spiderman!

For the Love of Reading ... Jack Kerouac

'On the Road, The Original Scroll' is the unedited manuscript which Kerouac typed in 20 days and then rewrote over years. I like the original scroll. It's rawer.

"I want uninterupted rapture"
Jack Kerouac

For the Love of - Federico Fellini...

...and his "Dolce Vita", a favourite film of mine.
