Blade Runner 2049: The umbrellas don’t glow no more

In 2049 the world of Blade Runner has lost the gritty but beautiful vagueness of 2019. It no longer allows for ambiguity and the smudgy room inbetween things. To keep you from conjuring up ideas, it even comes with an extra of not one, not two, no: three short films that explain what has happened between the two movies. Nerdy overexplanation much? When I went to see the old Blade Runner Final Cut a week after seeing 2049, the ticket had an accidental question mark in the film title and I was all: „OMG yes exactly!“

I have made a track called “Hollow” for friends’ label compilation: IVDR on VERYDEEPRECORDS Limited edition double tape. <3 Now I got a tape, even two tapes, and no tape player. Oh, these analog kids today, tsk. Good that today it’s released online too! Listen here: “Hollow” was made in and is about the shaky […]

missing friction

This ‘making of’ of Burial’s Untrue takes me way back. Soundforge, Fruity Loops and Wavelab – loved them. What they couldn’t do and what was hard to do with them was were the creative process started for me. Took me years to realize and accept it and not see it as failure and deficiency of […]

Isn’t it sweet that Google Photos shows me this picture when I search for selfies of mine on my haunted Android machine?! Last weekend the great IMPAKT Festival took place. I sadly had neither time nor cash to be there so I’m really thankful that there was a livestream and I am slowly starting to […]

Me too. “If all the women who have been sexually harassed or assaulted wrote “Me too” as a status, we might give people a sense of the magnitude of the problem. Please copy/paste.” #YesAllWomen —– The #metoo hashtag started by Alyssa Milano is making the rounds on social media, now in the heat of […]

DRAMA

I have made a quick little mix last night while picking music for my little DRAMA night. “Little” means: not as much decoration etc. as with my ORCHID party, so it’s a bit less nervewrecking and a bit more careless fun for me. ^^ If you’re in Nuremberg tonight, come over! It’s at Zentralcafe, my […]

Suburbs – Home of possibilities and horror

There are those kinds of essays that I save for days because I’m so looking forward to reading them that I don’t want to do so rushedly – like, whenever David A. Banks writes a new essay on urbanism and structures of power. His latest is ‘The Authoritarian Surround – The suburbs have incubated authoritarian […]

Laurie Penny and her “lost boys” and the journalism we deserve

I’m writing this down because of the lump I had in my throat while reading the Laurie Penny article on Milo Yiannopoulos’ followers. It shows the limits of her wonderful way of writing within the sad state of journalism as it is: Best payed for stirring up emotions and discussions, and for setting social groups […]

Swiss Army Man

27th December 2016 eve massacre Uncategorised Swiss Army Man 9 Comments

Swiss Army Man is a long bromantic fart joke going serious and we get to witness that not even death can stop bros from connecting over a woman’s rejection. It also is a fragile, funny and beautiful film.

I am currently celebrating the end of 2016 by having got stuck in a bingewatching hole that is quite soothing and well-deserved after last week’s stress, so no false shame here. Here’s what I’ve seen so far: The Return of Doctor Mysterio was a nice one. Maybe a tad too family friendly. It is not […]
