last night – passed one at night, we showed no fear and we went on a ride of death.
we walked for hours through isolated snow-scapes.
night sleigh ride!
a ride in complete darkness.
we were not scared.!
sledging in the snow.
in our pockets:
2 x cigarillos
2 x lolly pops
passport
and off we went with our sleighs down the hill
we showed no fear.
( well a bit we did)
there is nothing better then a ride of death!
when i was young i thought that the roof of the house on the hill, would touch the sky.
i thought – if i would climbed that roof i could touch the sky.
i like winter. when i watch the snow fall – i get peculiar emotion. Is it just me? no, i think a lot of people feel the same way. i personally think that this emotion is our nostalgia for the memory of our ancestors who survived the glacial ages.
today my friend joe wrote me something nice:
I was thinking yesterday about how when you have a small cut on your skin and the scar tissue can seep out and crystallize as it hardens and wouldn’t it be wonderful if people believed those crystals had special powers or some people were able to make different crystals with their skin. Or maybe some could become really famous for growing huge precious stones.

yesterday night i went out to dance on a boat (fake boat) .
that night i meet marlon who so we had to find out went to the same school and day care as me in munich.
my heart was beating very fast… i like when life makes circles.
i wonder what will happen next in my life…

….
You will marry the first person who tells you your eyes are like scrambled eggs.

one of my favourite pages in my book “Pluto and Charon” is the mirror page in the middle.
You can order my book from today on at LUDION.
pea
at the moment i am sleeping on 3 mattresses all pilled up on a high bed.
why?
because i want to meet a prince.! inspired by the fairy tale ” the princess and the pea” i want to place a small pea under the mattresses, so when a boy sleeps over , i will find out easily his true identity.
last night i wanted to try it out, as my friend kathi slept over ( i am suspicious – she could be a princess)… but had no peas in the house.!
at the moment my favourite book is “soul” by robert blackson.
robert asked people all over the world to draw their souls.

My quietness has a man in it, he is transparent
and he carries me quietly, like a gondola, through the streets.
He has several likenesses, like stars and years, like numerals.
(frank o’hara – in memories of my feelings)
every time i go back to antwerp i return with wonderful presents.!
this time i returned with:
1. jewelry from the antwerp label COH
2. mountain tea
3. lovely notes with stamps and hand writings of friends
yesterday night i took a dance with my friends from LUX.
i think the people from LUX and the people around LUX are some of the nicest people in London.
and they are not just nice but also the best dancers in town.! and we love disco music of course!
i was so happy yesterday that i had to tell everyone over and over again… how nice it is to be amongst such lovely dancers.! yuuuhuu.
if you dont know the LUX you should have a look ….
LUX is an arts agency which explores ideas around artists’ moving image practice through exhibition, distribution, publishing, education and research.
click here for more infos about LUX.!
and
practice your moves. because they might ask you to show your dance moves at one point.
i wanted to say quickly hello for stockholm.
wonderful mountains of snow and… listen to this.! after work i went to a small bar in which i found an old friend – MAX!
i like when things like that happens.
the same day dazed digital wrote a feature on my book with a small interview.!

there been times when i saw the grand canyon in the foldings of my pants.
today i feel a landscape inside of me. its hard to explain but its wonderful.
