women chopping wood
a live installation by choreographer Dorte Olesen, yesterday in alexanderplatz, berlin:
“15 Swedish women will travel to Berlin to meet a group of German women. They will have three days to complete their task: transforming 30 cubic metres of logs into imaginative woodpiles. The challenge includes co-operation, communication and getting to know one another across language and national barriers.”

wow, what a collaboration!!!
hey fotini, i was thinking of you lately. i will probably go to the herman dune concert in montreux. do you want to come with me?
have any of the women of iwish ever chopped wood?
– not i…
do you think it would be possible to feed comments into twitter as well?
i’ve never chopped wood either, i think..
and at the same time, on the other side of the square, someone was bungie jumping off the park inn hotel. the noise of collaborative chopping was shortly interrupted by the screams of the lone diver..
i’m not sure if it’s possible to feed comments into twitter.. could be funny though maybe.. do you want to google it..? but we have fancy new comment notification plugin now, did you see (works only once you’re logged in..)
and what do you think about the colours on the left..?
simone – is it summer there now? did you swim in the lake yet? have fun at the concert if you go..!
fotini,
yes i did. i swam in the lake and the river. how about your summer? any swimming? are you going to venice? than you must be going through switzerland. i would love to go to venice.
yes, i like the colours… who chose the shades…? e and her 鸡屎黄 (chicken shit yellow)…? i remember her gloves… what about monthly or quarterly or half-yearly or randomly changing colour themes – or too much work…?
if anyone’s in venice this summer, I’ll be there at the end of july…
anyone know why i always get “internal server error” notification after i submit my comment? no big problem really though as the comment does go through… just weird… happened on two different computers…
i got that error a few days ago when i was testing out this new comment notification plugin and i think it’s because of it. and yes the comment would still go through.. i didn’t get it yesterday though.. will try to fix.. hm, let’s see if it happens now..
and yes of course we can change the colours later on, it’s easy. you can choose new shades and send us the codes..
a, sim, you should visit venice together!
a, if you pass by rialto can you check to see if this old man (pinkish shirt, on the left) is still there scaring passersby? it’s pretty bad, but i was by myself and couldn’t stop laughing.. i wonder if he does it everyday..
