where people are shining and the music is good..

"Sitting in a park in Paris France
Reading the news and it sure looks bad
They won't give peace a chance
That was just a dream some of us had
Still a lot of lands to see
But I wouldn't want to stay here
It's too old and cold and settled in its ways here
Oh but California

California I'm coming home
I'm going to see the folks I dig
I'll even kiss a Sunset pig
California I'm coming home"

Lyrics by Joni from Saskatoon

film making and other things in life

"I always want to keep experimenting. I think the ways that I’ve evolved as an artist come about because of my desire to keep learning. Always, every day, I want to learn something new, whether it’s a new word or whatever. I want to learn something and that is why my work changes in mood, it’s because I’m moving on to what I can learn next. It’s not actually so pre-planned as to think of it about in terms of image change or implied direction, it’s actually quite a natural process for me to reach for something new; reach for a new instrument; reach for a way of writing I haven’t tried before. And that’s how the music evolves in the way it does"

This September I had the chance to work as a costume assistant on a MIGROS publicity in Switzerland.

song of the ocean

Uraltes Wehn vom Meer,
Meerwind bei Nacht
du kommst zu keinem her;
wenn einer wacht,
so muß er sehn, wie er
dich übersteht:

uraltes Wehn vom Meer
welches weht
nur wie für Urgestein,
lauter Raum,
reißend von weit herein.

O wie fühlt dich
ein treibender Feigenbaum
oben im Mondschein.

Out Of A Forest from Tobias Gundorff Boesen

to the moon and back ...

I do not seek. I find

Ich suche nicht, ich finde.

Suchen ist, wenn man von alten Dingen ausgeht,

und im Neuen das bereits Bekannte wiederfindet.

Finden ist etwas völlig Neues,

Neu auch in der Bewegung

Alle Wege sind offen,

und was gefunden wird, ist unbekannt.

Es ist ein Wagnis, ein heiliges Abenteuer.

Die Ungewissheit solcher Wagnisse können eigentlich nur jene auf sich nehmen, die im Ungeborgenen sich geborgen wissen,

die in der Ungewissheit, der Führerlosigkeit geführt werden,

die sich vom Ziel ziehen lassen und nicht beschränkt und eingeengt selbst das Ziel bestimmen.

Das Offen-Sein für jede neue Erkenntnis,

für jedes neue Erlebnis im Aussen und Innen.

Das ist das Wesenhafte des modernen Menschen,

der in aller Angst des Loslassen

noch die Gnade des Gehaltenseins

im Offenbarwerden neuer Möglichkeiten zulässt.

Pablo Picasso

"Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination. Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do this, your work (and theft) will be authentic. Authenticity is invaluable; originality is non-existent. And don’t bother concealing your thievery - celebrate it if you feel like it. In any case, always remember what Jean-Luc Godard said: “It’s not where you take things from - it’s where you take them to." Jim Jarmusch

le mur de l'atelier d'André Breton

André Breton's atelier in Paris held a collection of more then 5000 items from every possible culture all over the world. Paintings, drawings, sculptures, masks, skulls, stuffed animals, photographs, jewelry, weapons, stones, crystals, corrals ...

This days a part of his collection is preserved as "le mur de l'atelier d'André Breton" in the Centre Pompidou. To me an ever fascinating inspiration.



«Au départ il ne s'agit pas de comprendre mais bien d'aimer»

André Breton

this is great!
