NACO GLADIATORS

During our working nights we were incapables of behaving ourselves because we used UHU glue, ill tell you, if you smell that 5 consecutive hours in a row your mind start seeing edelweiis on the walls. you confuse a pen with a lollipop, you start singing like you were an agonising paul anka and you think each tool is a weapon and start behaving like a 90 year old gladiator at 5 am in the morning.
Il tell you my friend. the last thing you want is to be beaten in a fight with a 30 cm ruler !! not in our age

NO COMMENT WHAT SO EVER!!!!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRGHHH! UKIN METRO

antena man serenata

No explanation what so ever, so we tried to work toughly on AUTOCAD, while this man behind with a strange antena on his head came and evoked a bob dylan song, it lasted like 30 minutes, but we really had strange vibes during our concentration, maybe the antena, maybe his singing, but after this serenata (not on tape) we put a chop suey taco in his mouth and he miracously shutted up.

DA DA DF

After working together for 15 days with swiss jachen our art concept has transformed towards dada thinking. maybe the influence of zurich life, maybe the pollution of mexico city´s smog, maybe toomany cheese has made us nonsense dada thinking all thou nonsense is great in art. naïvity is essential in ways of understanding the ordinary. The everyday life. Bellas artes builduing is great in its form, monumental but weird in mexico´s reallity. dictatorship builduing, a wedding cake, like in italy , like fascism goverments, but is a really well made example of the most popular artists (siqueiros, orozco, and rivera) licking dictatorship balls. Being phenomenological and naïve its a great feeling!

you know this great moments , scenes in your life, that happen sometimes, today while waiking up i saw an interview from michael gondry and gael garcia talking about their new movie, la ciencia del sueño, i just thought what would it be like to have sex while this 2 guys are talking some nonsense but funny dream theory they have. I must admit, the theory gondry has is better than freuds, dream theory, but somehow they all related the dreams with sex, and told 5 times in the interwiew how they piied in their beds when they had wet dreams. courious, just wanted to share it

futbolito

as time passes by and we are getting into the heart and soul of bizarre mexico city we took a break and headed to play tisch fussball or FUTBOLITO. the thing is that the futbolito tables are 1 century old, andeverything is so heavy, not so fast as the european table football, but here it has more personality! because each wooden player is painted individually.
here`s a glimps of the contest , the little kids are soo good, I don´t understand why Jachen always make weird faces when he´s on tape. Can you explain that to me silvia?

masking the face, the feeling of an upcoming fatal fate!!! that never comes, the instinct of artist willie doherty at mexico df great church gallery is an ensemble of his great video art along with the empty ness of this ex church , makes the feeling soo scary and emotonal in many ways, hope you can see it.

now we are finally about to make the set, after many tries , we are beggining to do it. our time in mexico city has been so far touristic, hopfully that will change. We{ve made the final sketch of the opera and a proposal to the lights , we are so anxious to start and go to veracruz and enjoy a coffee in cafe la parroquia, and eat well, and meet nice people. you see , mexico city is bizarre, and that what i like, the most bizzare place ever, ( maybe also tijuana) but this city is not mexico at all- i think veracruz has more to offer, great state along with michoacan are my favorites. i hope you people out there that are reading this lines can come one time to this country.

mexican underground

my friend jachen enjoying and having a gas in the mexican full underground. check his sudden emotion, and check how he suddenly gives up his smile!!

never ending night at mexico city we found a new bar called HAYASTAN, great bar where every night different bands come to play. but yesterday there was the worst band ever called MASACRE SENTIMENTAL, sooooo bad, its bad, but the rest of the bar is a contemporary werehouse with a glimps of kitsh, the people there are good. nice night,

The skeleton of a whale floating on an intelectual space, Jose Vasconcelos Library. This kind of things really amaze my senses. displacement of things are normally refreshing, and exiting. really enjoy the library, al thou it has its details, like once you go and try to shit in the bathroom, you suddenly realize that you have an open window to the mexico city streets, its nice to see the ugly landscape outside, the problem is when people outside start gigling at your situation when you are about to whipe your behind

The ECO Museum design by Mathiaz Goeritz was really alucinating, Carlos, a friend took control of the turntables, great feeling, great atmosphere , awesome spaces.

IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CITY , BETWEEN DRUNKEN PEOPLE, SMOG, DIRT, CIGARETTE SMOKE AND TONS OF NOISE, WE FOUND A SPOT TO STAY ALIVE, ACTUALLY TO DRINK A BEER, NO, ACTUALLY TO HAVE A GREAT TIME, NICE LITTLE BAR CALLED EL NIVEL, SO JACHEN, CHAVA AND ME FOUND INSPIRATION THERE, TALKED ABOUT OUR GIRLFRIENDS ALOT AND GAVE SPACE TO NET ARTISTIC THINKING. SO WE ARE ABOUT TO BEGIN THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE SET, AND HOPEFULLY WE CAN GO REALLY SOON TO VERACRUZ, GREAT PLACE, BEEN THERE BEFORE, HAD A GREAT TIME THERE WITH A REALLY GOOD AMERICAN FRIEND.
SO IN TIMES LIKE THIS I THINK ABOUT "WHAT IF I MOVE HERE?? EVERYTHING IS HERE, " THE WAY OF LIFE IS NOT THAT GOOD, BUT I COULD USE SOME GOOD WORK HERE.
ILL THINK ABOUT IT, ANYWAY THEY JUST TOLD ME THAT I WON A ONE YEAR ARTISTIC SCHOLARCHIP, ILL SEE IF I CAN MAKE IT. HAVE OTHER PLANS

And then I realized that staying in mexico city eating TORTAS DE TAMAL would make myself a tortilla mass, so I suddenly felt pumping myself up with this add, dont know why !? It comes top mind the song of ERSTE ALLGEMEINDE FERUNSIHERUNG, copacabana

working hard in mexico city , we are trying to mak the set better, after a series of attempts we are in owr way , trying hard to make a cool sky . Im glad to be here in mexico city , but want to go as soon as posible to veracruz, really hoping to go and work there.
