Painted 14 balusters (from Italian balaustra - Pomegranate flower) of a stairwell. Spiraling the brush in that repetitious manner that comes with the painters meditation. Soundtrack “throbbing gristle - the meme is the message”. Delivered by a Buddha Machine - loop samples that melt with a pitch control. Discovered this installation of 1000 in Rome - photos only - absence of sound samples like the tree in the forest that no one heard falling - (although I’m calling and will let you know if found). Audio consolation - a beautiful Buddha Machine and Piano composition by Peter V. Stevens.

Greetings fellow Carbon Composites,
.
May has ushered in our 4th month in Berlin, The typical distractions found in uprooting and replanting yourself into different surroundings has been time consuming. Momentium starting to gather again with some exciting projects afoot. The focus since arriving has been to put an exhibition together prior to approaching the galleries.
.
A month back, Pete another NZ artist in these parts kindly offered a section of his studio for me to work in, i jumped at it. The studio space Stadtbad, is in ‘Wedding’ pronounced Vedding auf deutsch. An area of Berlin with a high Turkish population, the turkish are big into bathing and Stadtbad was originally a building that housed bathing quarters and a massive swimming pool, these are still there minus all the water and chlorine. The Snap above and the footy below don’t really capture the scale of the place, its huge.
.
Below is a clip that serves to document the space, i expect the Oskers, Emmys and Globes to start flowing in before the years out.
It captures 5 minutes and 15 seconds of creating lines that didn’t exist 5 minutes and 15 seconds prior.
Music : Whatever was playing in the office…. Blue Pine i believe.
.

Figuring out that many plants survive in the most extreme places by mainly water alone, led one man on an odyessy from the rigours of amazon to the precarious cliff faces of the modern office building.

This is the future friends.
When you ask two talented architects to make a visual description of the future you would hope they would make something like this.
Just keep looking at it,
or you could go here and find out more about spontaneous architecture.
