the black trees
It´s tree time
So many trees get cut every year
and then are thrown out for new ikea-furniture
if they are not pretty enough, they get dismissed
it´s a sad world.
Here is my hommage to the black trees, the crooked, the lean, the outcast:
Material:
old magazines
thread
buttons
pen
leather left overs

"tree"-decoration
In case there´s any need of decorating any trees which associate you with christmas time, here´s my suggestion:
Have a swallow, fly back home (Handdrawn)
Origami-ball (I never do that again)
Crocheted Ball (bought that from a small village christmas market)
I´m more for a few decoration items, don´t bump the tree!

paper wheels
I lately was again in a home of an older couple. The floor was totally covered in different thick carpets. To preserve the nice floor. And the couch was totally covered with blankets in no fitting colours. To preserve the couch. What a pity to preserve things so much, you never come to enjoy them.
One thing I learned in Denmark is that it is important how the rooms look you are living, learning and working in. It is effecting the way how you can work, how you welcome and honour people and treat yourself. In Germany there are still so many terrible office and working and learning places. No beauty, no nice colours, no design. And how much time of our life are we spending there...
The hallway in my working place used to look not very welcoming. And we didn´t even notice. Sadly as social workers we are so often used to having little money to be spend on these things. And over the years you can become so used to the status quo.
So what we did together with some women:
Painting an old small table white.
Sewing some covering for old chairs with a nice blue-white print fabric that was donated to us.
And now making some paper wheels for the wall.
Extreme difference.

whores` glory
I´ve been lately invited at the launch of this film in Germany,
on the guest list due to my work.
Michael Glawogger has taken 5 years ( filming was just 30 days, building trust to be allowed to film took several years) to film different prostitution milieus in 3 different countries and 3 different religious settings:
- High-class prostitution in Bhuddist Thailand where prostitution due to the king is not existing
- a brothel town in Bangladesh, which is muslim and where prostitution is legalised since 2000 (even earlier than in Germany)
- the mix of prostitution, drugs and some kind of brute catholicism in the "zona" in Reynosa, Mexico
The movie is not showing a certain view or opinion on prostitution, but shows:
it is like this, and like this and like this and also sometimes like this.
He told that in this sometimes all cruel settings it is still fascinating for him to recognise (and to show in his movies) how people still keep being beautiful people.
The movie is also uncomfortable and if you can´t take naked bodies and "dirty talk" better don´t watch it. It´s certainly not "jugendfrei" (In mehrfacher Bedeutung des Wortes).
Otherwise I think I would recommend it, also because the music is for my taste very well chosen.

recycle stitch
Lately I got inspired to start stitching paper
it´s quite a nice possibility to make cards and the like from
used envelopes, old magazines and collected buttons.

Überbleibsel vom Juli- was man so macht
Den Mozzarella entlang seiner Linien reißen
Mit der Zunge am Gaumen zerdrücken
Die Tage mit Arbeit füllen
Die Tage ohne Dich füllen
Sich zusammenziehender Magen
und Angst.
Nicht mehr sprechen können.
In Bücher flüchten.
In Arbeit flüchten.
Nicht wissen, womit den Tag füllen, wenn die Arbeit nicht ist.
Manchmal mich zu Dir flüchten.
Zum 100. Mal die Schuhe kaputt laufen.
Nach Hause gehen.
Nicht frühstücken
Die Haare flechten
Laufen

Täter-Kind
When I was a child I used to go the library very often and always take as many books I could carry home. My mom sometimes turned the enery off, to keep me from reading too long and not sleeping.
I started reading books again, a lot. For years I used to read mostly newspapers, books that had something to do with studying. Now I enjoy it again to just hang out in my room, just spending hours with reading. Also, reading roots.
My mom has compiled a book of the writings of my grandfather about his life and what my grandmother has told her about her life. They tell about their childhood, their youth, how they got married and life in the GDR. My grandfather as a soldier in Norway and a prisoner in France. They had to build up the bridges in French villages that the "Wehrmacht" has destroyed. Awesome pedagogics.
How my grandmother fled from the soviet army. Hiding in the hay at night so they won´t be found and raped.
Walking, walking and biking. (My friends complain about that I walk so fast. My grandmother, my mom and me have the same walking speed.)
They just tell chronologically, year by year, event by event. They have been so young during the 2nd world war and simple, God-trusting people during the socialist times.
What bothers me is what is not written. Simple surviving seemed to take up so much time and thoughts, that there was no space to actually comprehend what happend during these times (?)
No description of their personal thoughts and struggles, what they felt during these times. Apolitical. Just not following the system in daily life.
It is this silence that bothers me. We have heard, seen and read so much. Documentaries, the history lessons, exhibitions, old people telling us how life in Auschwitz has been.
And yet we don´t know where our grandparents have been at this times. What they thought. What their decisions have been based on. It is "us". (But also my Japanese friends tell me that there is an extreme silence about the 2nd world war between the generations. And some Spanish friends say the same about the Franco-times. )
I´m currently reading a book from Christa Wolf where she describes "a day in a year" in a range of years from 1960 to 2000. She is a writer in the GDR in a constant struggle. She describes what is going on inside of her, her fears, how her views changed over the years, the responsibility of a writer to express openly whats inside her. To name the things we don´t find words for.
Seemes, I learn more from this book about the state I was born in, than from many stories my family told me.
In (psychological) literature the topic of intergenerational transmission of repressed experiences and trauma of victims as well as offenders often appears. The spechlessness between the generations. The repression. And the repressed is repeating itself again and again.
„... in den Kindern wird die Wahrheit, die man nicht aussprechen mag, sichtbar." Bernhard Schlink
(The truth you don´t want to admit, becomes visible in the children.)
I love speaking with my mom. It´s often exhausting. The older we get we seem to find more and more words for what has happened. In our own histories. In the histories of the groups we somehow belong to. My mom is fighting speechlessness. Me hopefully more and more, too.

The performance "bodies in urban spaces" from cie.willi dorner took place in the city where I live. It´s also about how a city, its planning and its buildings are shaping our behaviour and movement in public space. How we experience the world around us
People can be so elastic!
The video is from a performance in Berlin two Years ago.
and a short movie from willi dorner
2.
half marathon again: they had wine on the way
2:03
3.
the very best mix of French and southern German cousine ever:
"Laugencroissants mit Kürbiskernen"
(Croissants prepared in "pretzel-brine"(?) with pumpkin seeds)
with brie its the perfect breakfast

we tried having a copenhagen-living-commune-get-together again
it failed a little as one of my former flatmates got stuck on the atlantic
anyway I was with my spanish dudes
it was very warm in madrid
there were demonstrations against the ETA and Zapatero because some think he´s not doing enough against the ETA. Old Spanish ladies all covered with Spanish flags. Scary.
!steroescope revolution (Jacques Henri Lartigue!
he makes this pictures where you can really see how much he loves and adores the person he portrayes... there have been this kind of pictures from quite a few women)
I ate unhealthy
it´s not to be recommended to come home from a short holiday
two hours before you ought to go to work
2
I figured that the half-marathon I wanted to run is already in may
and I haven´t really trained yet
3
fair trade sex
what would that be?
4
work:
I have a hard time listening to you because this is what I do so much over the day
I read a lot the news paper and don´t know half an hour later what I read
I was angry with adults when I was a teenager on how they can be so ignorant and numb towards whats happening in the (rest of the) world- now I feel I´ve become one of them
5
in a car with my german-persian flatmate, also there´s a guy from syria and and one from vietnam:
The week before the Syrian guy: well, not Syria, you know, our president will no go so easily.
The week after we: hey, what you say, that this week the government of Syria resigned?
My flatmate and the Syrian guys making fun of the vietnamese guy because of his accent. He is laughing with them.

Musings on the concept of SAHMS
SAHMS (Stay at home mom)
I find it quite interesting to see some kind of blogging world develop, where, lets say, the young creative moms get more and more out into the blogosphere sharing their experiences on how to make nice stuff, how to live on little money, frugality, DIY and all these things.
While I really enjoy at lot of DIY stuff and am all up for living simple and frugal, some tendencies rather worry me: (besides: why does your DIY stuff for girls always has to be "cute" and in candy-colours?)
At some of the (christian) blogs I have noted the tendency to be so proud on being a so called SAHM, and on promoting the model of "my husband works 6 days a week, 10 hours a day so we can live on one income, because it´s my God given place and role to be a mother at home" and "if you work you show disrespect towards your husband cos it´s his role to provide for his family", if you are a working mother it is bad for your children und ungodly and so forth...
Besides the fact that I always wonder why some people seem to know so well what "all husbands" want and "all children" need , I recognise that this idea is culturally foreign to me.
1. Speaking with some of my male friends the idea was: "It´s pretty unfair to put all the income/working pressure on the male side of the family, especially in a time where the education level is not so much more connected to gender."
2. How do we get the idea that kids wouldn´t need their dad as much as their moms? Shared time with your kids seems much more fair to me.
3. Most of these kinds of blogs are written by western, protestant, white, middle class moms. That doesnt´t mean that people usually have more money but it seems like people somehow can arrange to live on one income while others simply have to go working to make a living. As far as I know in most countries of the world moms can´t afford to stay at home and not go working for a salary. So maybe it´s a pretty western idea?
4. What do you do all day long at home? I´m not speaking about the ones with little kids cos there it´s pretty obvious that they mostly keep you busy all day long. But "I want to stay at home until they all fly out?" In former times when people didn´t have washing machines and so on it was obvious that running a household, rasinig kids and maybe also running a garden and all this stuff would take up a lot of time. But nowadays? In Germany we now change more and more to the model of having your kids in all-day-schools. I don´t say that this is always good, but what do you do when your kids then are at school and come home late?
5. Who says that kids are always happy having their mom at home? Honestly, I imagine it sometimes quite annoying to always have a mom at home who wants to do something with you because this is what she´s determined to do. I remember I was pretty early happy to do my own stuff, meeting with friends, doing sports and whatever without my parents interfering into my life and always trying to "raise" me.
Maybe it´s just another way of "childhood in the year 2009 is live in a surveillance socity, in a dictatorship of the "good"?"
We can´t totaly manage and we can´t totally control and maybe that´s healthy?

sweet potatoe pie
this, in fact, functions for nearly every vegetable you can imagine
we usually keep all kinds of little glassdishes e.g. from bought deserts or the like
they are perfect for making small puff pastry dishes in them
just put puff pastry in it add some raw or slightly cooked vegetables
maybe put some cheese on, in the oven, ready
also for the eye

pin board
I lately tried to make a pin board
we needed one for our commune to pin all kinds of stuff on
cleaning plans and the like
When I was at this one flea market, a man just gave me these
two nice old frames for free
so I planned to make something with them
for the pinboard I needed some cork or similar stuff to have something to pin on
I was looking for ages in the stupid "Baumarkt" and finally chose this heating pipe insulation material, I couldn´t find cork and nothing else fitting
So I just cut the material down and glued it to some cartboard which I glued to the frames
then I chose some pictures from an old noa noa catalogue and made them fit in.
I believe you need some nice underground for nasty things like cleaning plans
in the physical as in the social;)

the tendency of fashion labels to produce short clips for promoting their products really works with me

starring
the region I´m coming from is very much focused on stars during christmas time
in Denmark christmas seems to be more about hearts...
Though I´m not a big christmas fan, the craftiness of making stars fascinates me, working around a center, lighting them.
a collection of the most important (hand made) star forms at my mom´s:
plauen lace star
fröbel star (The smaller ones)
bascutti star
herrnhut star
pagoda stars
