ensalada mixta de los emotiones

I am having sushi for dinner and mixed emotions about being back, about being on the shooting, of friday coming tomorrow
of things starting and ending and those of already ended. But jet, in the middle of it - the little zen monk is giggiling and happy. I have good vibes.

Efterklang and "An Island"

I have a new obsession. The obsession is called "Efterklang" and it is a Danish band I am absolutely crazy about.

Do you know this band? Efterklang is one of those bands that thrives on live interaction and performance. The band playing together in a room is a much different animal than the band recording in a studio. A collaboration between the band and filmmaker Vincent Moon, An Island is a most unusual performance film. Conceived and created from the ground up as something that would play with the medium the picture was shot on an island off the coast of Denmark with the band pulling in as many musical collaborators as possible to generate a feature length performance with the music informing the film and vice versa rather than the film simply capturing a performance. Over an intense period of 4 days Efterklang collaborated with more than 200 local musicians, kids and parents, creating new performances and interpretations of songs from their Magic Chairs album. It was all filmed by Vincent Moon who same time conducted several filmic and musical experiments with Efterklang as his dedicated play mates.And making it even more exciting is the band's unusual distribution and screening strategy. They're calling on fans to host screenings in their homes, schools, or other venues, the only restrictions being that they must be free and the venue in question must hold at least five people. If you can meet those terms you're good to go, at no charge. Call it a thank you from the band to the fans who have supported them over the years. The movie will be out in February 2011.

See the 3rd trailer here, which is just wonderful on vimeo: http://vimeo.com/18622678

moonywolf

















it is 08.00 by Estonian time. I have studied exactly the whole night and now too scared to go to sleep for 2h, as I wont wake up. so I am staying up, with grave for music and visuals, letting my brain rest. Ive always admired people who make beautiful pictures with epic colors and interesting small escape-worlds, where small girls in yellow dresses and make clouds out of their hair and samurais sail in the most beautiful kimonos over the seas of the world. not that I lack of material to dream and drift away, but the pleasure it is given to me through the colors for example on the pictures above make me feel warm inside. I really like it.

it is 6.49 and I am eating a huge piece of cheese in my living room. I just finished media research data exel file compilation and I think I have never hater anything more than this. so lets see: do I fail it tomorrow and do I get my dream job too? or life has some other plans for me, I fuck up the interview but not fail the assignment and course?

does everything happen for a reason? or there is this mystery zone. I like to think that there is.

“…the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones that never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn...”

oh, man! my new music video of this week, again a good
catch as the song and video - both are a big like!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lIna2PzGudU

the "i wanna" of my lifetime

the song of tuesday

all your friends and peers and family solemnly tell you you will
have to grow up be an adult yeah be bored and unfulfilled
oh when no ones yet explained to me exactly what's so great
about slaving 50 years away on something that you hate,
about meekly shuffling down the path of mediocrity
well if that's your road then take it but it's not the road for me

and I wont sit down and I wont shut up
and most of all, I wont grow up

so here are my wishes for you at 2011:




















P.S! And I definately wanna make some groovy colored even groovier vagina shaped cupcakes. Friends, 2011 is made for that!

i wanna













recently I have thought of so many things I wanna do. so many that it makes my head spin. and they vary from i wanna now to i wanna in few years and i wanna in future. are you not obsessed sometimes of all the the things you would like to do and have? there is nothing to be ashamed of, it is just the most human thing to do, forget everything you have and what you have not finished and seek for now, seemingly better and brighter. of course ideals, goals, wishes, desires are all totally different things that just have the same sublevel of "i wanna". and the best time to praise about all the things is of course the upcoming new year ahead. so here is a small hierarchy of my "i wannas":

i wanna now:
- sleep more than 3h this week
- have an apple vodka with lime, crushed ice and lemonade
- have a bath, smoke while i am taking it

i wanna in some time:
- do the exames well for this session
- not fail anything
- finish the projects still open
- get done with this semester
- have a great snowboarding weather

i wanna in the future:
- be at school for the upcoming semester
- concentrate on the upcoming movie projects 110%
- have more time to read
- start smoking again, because I quit it for now

and now, there is only 10 000 more things... but the idea of this is not all the things what i'd like to accomplish, or do, or have but the fact that for the very first time, this NY I really took time to think of the time last year, of the good and bad and well done of 2010, I even analyzed it and made myself clear the weaknesses and strenghts of the past year, thinking of this year - of what I actually want and will do better for this time. and I think it is immensly important to think about the things you have done, it is the only way to stop the time from running a moment and realize if there is something you have waisted the precious time for or if there is anything you should give more of it.

did you think of the last year as in terms of time passed and of the new, that what could be there? because, if you dont wish for anything to be there, how can be there then anything you wished for? .)
