…a stroll down the river bank, passing a massive pile of branches prepared for the evening’s traditional bonfire commemorating Labour Day, accompanied by friends, fresh breezes from surrounding hills and good wine

Zoltan, Vesna, Nebojša

nettles and me

local summer houses and Drava river

DIY wine cooler

small local bonfires

escaping the (sub)urban nightmare (even if only for a day) is priceless


We will not sing at your damn parade.

How to build a Potemkin village?

2011/12/20

How to build a Potemkin village?
a) apply for European Capital of Culture project
b) win (tip: hire good liars to present arguments to the EU Commission… top-notch manipulative skills and well premeditated false promises help too)
c) hire clueless, naïve people as programme directors
d) hire people who don’t know anything about financing as finance executives
e) trust the political crème de la crème
before you know it, you will be surfing on the lake of fire known as “the European Capital of Catastrophes”…and the le petit bourgeois will be granted with an opportunity to be a part of something colossal. even if it’s make-believe.

current music: Sieg Howdy lp by Jello Biafra with the Melvins
current mood: charming


Soon.
