Yesterday Hisae and I caught the penultimate day of Art Forum Berlin, the local equivalent of New York's Armory Show or London's Frieze Art Fair (which we'll see in a fortnight).
What can I say? In a sad old world, art makes me happy.

Date: 2006-10-04 04:03 am (UTC)I mean, you get the dizzying ecstasy of "art," the anthropocentric concept of self in the "I," but then, the inherent self-destructiveness of Mankind in the "choke." In one word, you find the salvation of Man, His unavoidable selfishness and then His inevitable death by His own hands.
The implications boggle the mind...and require thorough boiling and some lemon juice, too.

Date: 2006-10-04 11:53 am (UTC)I bought Ocky Milk yesterday.
I feel it's too early for me to say anything particularly intelligent about it, but at the moment I like Nervous Heartbeat, Permagasm and Zanzibar. I'm not yet at the point where I can easily put the titles to the tracks, but these ones stand out so far.
I recently came to the conclusion that Oskar Tennis Champion is my favourite Momus album.
That was me
