under the bridge

You usually can find a lot of old bikes under the bridge. Sometimes even new ones. If you need a bike this is a good place to go fishing for them.

fishing

Fishing is super popular here in Fisksätra. The name Fisksätra originates from the viking era and means something like Fish meadow. Is it just a coincidence? I think not.

stretching

This little cygnet was doing some serious stretching down at Holmen. The parents are pretty damn hostile and usually chase me when I swim to close. Bastards!

friday night

Strange how things just start to move when you've been out having fun.

the selecter - missing words

This is one of my favourite songs from the 2 Tone era - Missing Words performed by The Selecter. Pauline Black really kicked ass.

little stuffed hyenas

Suddenly when I stood there in the bar I saw the little stuffed toy hyenas on the shelf...

dexter - waiting to exhale

Dexter again. I'm happy to be able to say that season two's first two episodes are great. Maybe not fantastic - but very promising. I'm not sure if they will focus on the mess Dexter is in now or if some new super villain will appear and replace the Ice Truck Killer. That's what happens in Dearly Devoted Dexter. In season one they hinted that Sergeant Doakes, who's now following Dexter, had somekind of dark secret from his days in the US Military. Now Doakes is the only one who acts suspicious towards Dexter. Is it because "it takes one to know one" - a killer can spot another killer? Has Sergeant Doakes also done some bad shit that he repents and want to have undone? We'll see.

dexter - it's alive!

Finally the first two episodes of Dexter season two have leaked out to the internet! The digital life is good sometimes. I've just viewed the first of these two episodes and it was good. Things start to go really bad for Dexter. Nothing is as it was before he killed his brother Rudy aka the Ice Truck Killer. Sergeant Doakes is watching his every move and he's not really sure about himself anymore. But then something happens that makes Dexter feel alive again. I'm really looking forward to a new season with Dexter. Unfortunately - or not - season two is said to be an original work and not based on Dearly Devoted Dexter. We'll soon see if this is true or not. So far there at least seems to be some likeness between the two. But only some. I hope Showtime don't screw this up.

düsseldorf 1970 - 1975

organisation - ruckzuck (live on WDR TV in April 25th 1970)


kraftwerk - ruckzuck (live on WDR TV in 1970)


kraftwerk - radioactivity


Kraftwerk in the beginning of their long and weird career. It's strange that it's only months between the first video with Organisation (did Rowan Atkinson really play congas with them??) and the second video with Kraftwerk performing the same song.

vacation mode

This is me in vacation mode. Spent five hours down at Holmen and I'm feeling pretty fried right now...

grace jones - libertango

Grace Jones has never been better than this. "I've Seen That Face Before (Libertango)" is from her 1981 album Nightclubbing.

my fridge

Summer in the fridge.

saturday fun

There was some strange things going on at the square today.

fiskis

One more Fiskis shot.

slumber

Slumbering in the sun,

clouds

Laying there in the grass and watching the clouds go by...

saturday at holmen

Another sunny and great day at Holmen. This is how I like my vacation.

my balcony - episode twelve

Sunflowers & cornflowers. It's like a jungle out there.

ozzy - mr crowley

Now it's all so clear. This is where the Spinal Tap got most of their inspiration. Ozzy is totally zombie awesome! I think it's Randy Rhoads (no, he wasn't a porn actor) on guitar - brilliant solos there. Unfortunately he died in an accident back in 1982. What can I say - Blizzard of Ozz is a great album.

das testament des dr mabuse

When humanity, subjugated by the terror of crime, has been driven insane by fear and horror, and when chaos has become supreme law, then the time will have come for the empire of crime.

Fritz Langs 1933 masterpiece "Das Testament des Dr Mabuse" still feels uncomfortably contemporary. Watch this movie first and then Adam Curtis BBC documentary The Power of Nightmares and freak out! This is a perfect movie and it will always be one of my absolute favourite movies.
