" i don't feel that it is necessary to know exactly who i am. The main interest in life and work is to become someone else that you were not in the beginning."
/ Michel Foucault/
Luigi Russolo had a vision in which "every factory will be transformed into an intoxicating orchestra of noises". It was Russolo's belief that noise was the sound of music for the new century. He concluded that the incorporation of noise as part of the musical language was the next logical step for the future. In his manifesto Art of Noises (1913), he wrote "we must break out of this narrow circle of pure musical sounds, and conquer the infinite variety of Noise sounds...Let us wander through a great modern city with our ears more alert than our eyes, and enjoy distinguishing between the sounds of water, air, or gas in metal pipes, the purring of motors ) which breathe and pulsate with indisputable animalism), the throbbing of valves, the pounding of pistons, the screeching of gears, the clatter of streetcars on their rails, the cracking of whips, the flapping of awnings and flags. We shall enjoy fabricating the mental orchestrations of the banging of store shutters, the slamming of doors, the hustle and bustle of crowds, the din of railroad stations, foundries, spinning mills, printing presses, electric power stations, and underground railways."

oh, your albatros has a serious mental problem. You maybe fry him and serve it as chicken wings. So i agree that pimping your bathtub is a better way to get to Altenburg quite fast:)
We will take the huge iron bathtub running on rails, because it is slightly heavy;)
Prage was great!!!!! Even we spent there just one night, but we will go back there later this year...
Have a great week:)

well, maybe a bit silly but very environment- friendly:)
where did you got that albatros??
The ones we can buy here are silly and fat:/
Next weekend we try some for our trip to Prague:)
All the best,
Phil
