Standing behind the young olive tree
I see the sun slowly dive deep in a sea of orange
If there was a way to wave goodbye to the summer,
this is what it would look like

looking around
up and down
and the life that ends
with patterns and colours

Sometimes summer feels like winter
Umberto Eco once said that there are no news in August, referring to and describing obviously the situation in Italy.
Well, there's not much difference in Greece, considering the similarity of the Mediterranean climate, the heat of the
month and the fact that August is the peak of the holiday season for the Greeks.
There's not much really going on at the moment. Everything feels stagnant, motionless, repetitive. It gives me the
impression of that cold long, snowy winters in Berlin, right at that very moment when you've lost all hope that spring
will come eventually and the sun will finally warm up the air the the ground.
Sometimes summer in Athens feels like winter in Berlin...
Sometimes it's hot outside, but the heart hibernates...

Το κουνέλι Νέλη [Nely Bunny]
First time I get to take care of a bunny.
It's the softest little thing ever to have caressed.
Sometimes it can surprise you with a tiny bite
which however never leaves marks or pain,
it's slightly more intense than a fish bite (ever got bitten by a fishy?)
People hear, I officially love bunnies!

This is what it looks like when the clouds celebrate!
Don' t ask what, just join the party!

NO is for FREEDOM!
NO

FREEDOM!
"Cause people often talk about being scared of change
But for me I'm more afraid of things staying the same
Cause the game is never won by standing in any one place for too long"

Berlin
"Wenn man einen Tag lang
durch eine Stadt läuft und fotografiert,
sieht man diese Stadt nicht mehr".
"Und diese Auslöschung des Subjekts,
seine Schrumpfung zur black box,
die Rückentwicklung seines Sehens
zu dem unpersönlichen Sehen des Apparates,
das ist magisch."
[Baudillard, zitiert nach Stiegler: Bilder der Photographie. Ein Album photographischer Metaphern, 61]
"Spuren der Zeit"
"Die Dauer der Photographie ist eine Dauer der Spur.
Der Blick auf das Bild entdeckt dort Spuren der Zeit."
[Bernd Stiegler: Bilder der Photographie. Ein Album photographischer Metaphern, 217]

To leave is to come back
And when the sun cools
And when the stars fall
That's when I come back, when I come back to you
And when the war machines
Rust eternally
That's when I come back, when I come back to you
And when your heart bleeds
For a love that's dead like me
That's when I come back, when I come back to you...
[Back to you, Brett Anderson]

Goodbye and Hello
"The antique people are fading out slowly
Like newspapers flaming in mind suicide
Godless and sexless directionless loons
Their sham sandcastles dissolve in the tide
They put on their deathmasks and compromise daily
The new children will live for the elders have died
And I wave goodbye to America
And smile hello to the world"
[Goodbye and Hello, Tim Buckley]

Sadly
"She said, father, mother, sister, brother
Uncle, aunt and nephew, niece
Soldier, sailor, physician, laborer
Actor, scientist, mechanic, priest
Earth and moon and sun and stars
And planets and comets with tails blazin'
All are there forever fallin'
Fallin' lovely and amazin'"

On top of an old world
...and by the time we were leaving
a bit away from the touristic fever of summer...
...it was getting mysteriously dark.

Νανούρισμα / Lullaby
"Μην έρχεσαι, μην μπαίνεις
το παραθύρι κλείστο
με φυλλωσιές ονείρου
μ' όνειρα φυλλωσιάς."
