I have nothing to say, really.

Fuck off.

But at least there was some snow.

Snow!

During the night between Monday and Tuesday, a fire under the highway A57 managed to destroy the bridge well enough to have to closed at least until March. Yes, that is my commute. Bastards.

Also, we taped a new episode of the Knutsens and there’s a nice new Meg Myers song.

Giacomo came over to have dinner at Tsun Gai and some after-dinner coffee at Café Relax, which is always a nice way to spend an evening.

Because it’s carnival and the people of Cologne take their carnival really seriously, I got to go home early. Early enough to install the Messages beta and read some Mountain Lion previews.

Wir sind zu viert und ich bin der faulste von allen. Baue ab und an mal eine kleine Hütte. (We’re four people and I’m laziest of them all. Once in a while I build a little hut.)

I was talking about Minecraft, which is awesome. Fabian liked that quote so much, he printed it out and pinned it to our office whiteboard.

As it was carnival weekend and I do not like carnival, I was hiding inside most of the time, thankful for finally having a reason for that and alternated between playing Minecraft and watching The Wire. In the evening I had dinner with my sister and a friend of hers, which just made me realize that there are probably no normal people out there.

I turned a big net of oranges into some orange juice. Look at me, being proud of myself.

Nyan!

Im Photostudio

Profile (obviously)

Letzten Sonntag habe ich das erste Mal aktiv als Photograph Studio-Luft geschnuppert. Giacomo, Jan Manuel, Teymur und ich haben ich uns für einen Nachmittag das große Artlight Studio in Leichlingen gemietet, Wendy hat sich freundlicherweise dazu bereit erklärt, das Styling zu übernehmen und als Model konnten wir Svitlana für uns gewinnen. Teymur ist ja Photograph in Köln, wie anderen drei waren doch absolute Studio-N00bs und ich rechne Svitlana ihre Geduld mit uns hoch an.

Wir alle hatten großen Spaß an der Sache und ich denke, für keinen von uns war es das letzte Shooting in einem Studio – allein die Blitze sind einfach so sehr der Hammer, am liebsten hätte ich die direkt mitgenommen. Ich könnte mir schon vorstellen, mal den einen oder anderen Workshop auch in diesem Studio mitzumachen. Das ganze Set kann man bei Flickr bewundern.
