weegee

 

for all, that are interested in photography and the history of photography, i can to recommend an exhibition called "the weegee story". weegee (born arthur felling) was the first and only photographer in the 1930ties and 40ties, who had access to NY's police radio. he used to be the first on crimeszenes, ... he documented the city he loved and became one of the most important photographers in history.

he influenced a lot of others, including names like william eggleston, diane arbus (its worth looking for those too) and many more.

 

"the weegee story" is the biggest retrospective in history.

the exhibition is located in "postfuhramt"

oranienburger strasse/tucholskystrasse

24.02.2007 until 06.05.2007

 

don't miss it

 

 

 

Novelist and Science-Fiction Writer Kurt Vonnegut died yesterday at age 83.

He wrote this and that and that...

RIP

 

as we're talking about dubstep/jungle/breakcore/dub/minimal/electro ... i can also recommend a store i found in leipzig (germany) on tuesday. its called "NERDRECORDS" and is located in an old east-german fabric complex called "FEINKOST" (karl-liebknecht-strasse/südvorstadt). the names say it all! "nerdish fine food" for all you nerds out there! found some delicious sweets out there... too many to buy them all - it was a jungle trip ...

by the way the guy who owns it, will take good care of you - he's really nice and definitely is a nerd too! he shares the place with another guy who looks like venetian-snares and sells old turntables, furniture and design stuff (nice one and not too expensive). so if you come to leipzig - which is much beautifuller than i thought and which moreover could be some kind of a graffiti paradise for some of you - make sure you say hello!

 

greeeetz outta leipzig my dear

nerdish friends out there!
