after a walk

I found this photo that I fell in love with. I just cant stop staring at it, they way the boy looks, opens as a new world and shows you shades of the corners of the simplicity of ones soul as if it really was capturable. you look into the big "it" and find emerging things in you what all have something to do with memories, smiles, feelings, looks and all that you never think of when looking at random pictures. the pictures that make you feel, you fall in love with.

no matter what the time is

i met the walrus

now this is something that it is a certain must for every fan of the beatles and cool graphic design.
in 1969, a 14-year-old Beatle fanatic named Jerry Levitan, armed with a reel-to-reel tape deck, snuck into John Lennon's hotel room in Toronto and convinced John to do an interview about peace. check what Josh Raskin did out of it as i am in love with it:

i never really think about the things i have around me, until i start to put them together, clean my room and find old fotos of people and passions and places and suddenly you feel like listening this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yedD4JsZyT0 and then you start drawing your friends and you like what you do and you save what you have done. after a cup of tea i findmyself from wondering why it is late again and i am either missing somebody or longing for something that makes me be up at this hour. do you feel restless sometimes, altough its long after time is done?

i collect old posters about anything. my favourites are posters about the two worldwars. but here is two with the two famous revolver brands smith and wesson and ones made by iver johnson. the poster shows a little gal holdin papas gun saying: "papa says it wont hurt us" - absolutely safe, accidental discharge impossible. outofmind.

i have always liked art with social meaning in any terms. banksy is my favourite like anyones. some find it just cool stuff, some love the conceptual part. i am one of the other kind - i come on the idea of bananaguns and little rats saving the world. furthermore, there is many that have joined the stencil society and here is one:

suck my kiss

what a weird time it is what has passed. I havent been a lot at home.

all I do lately to get off the ground is listening music like a superhott marmott with a hipster background and feeling things upsidedown. at friday I didnt sleep much, went to do an exame with 3 hours of sleep and shivering hands as the two expressos were a little too much. got drunk at home eleven o`lock in the mornin from 2 cups of sugar, bubbles and alcohol called shampagne. tallinn was nice over a long time, I realized why I miss it - its my friends here that miss me. we need more time and gettogethers. I need them. with vine and time, dropp it like its hott. and I went to a club in tallinn over ages. hollywood has not changed, I have. as there was the simple session this weekend, I made a lot of shy but cool finnish skaterfriends and saw many that I knew randomly. as we were sitting on the second floor with a skatejesus and supermodel Anton from Moscow, there was two guys having an argue. one of them smacked the other in the face and that one dropped on the ground, not moving. people went away and a circle became around the body on the floor. I went to see if its blood running down the floor from his face. it was. called the ambulance and got home. happy fucking society everybody.

its this artist Daphne Plessner, who makes this a littlebit weird and rather interesting stuff.

Too much colors for me but the motives I like. Aswell her quote: we all recognise the raw animal-like nature of society: the human qualities of say, cruelty or menace, greed or power. Saying that its a wallpaper world, she claimes for things that actually are false. http://www.plessner.co.uk/wallpaper-world-paintings.html
