Spy My Munich Map

aennie — Wed, 21 Jul 2010 21:33:31 +0000

Hi, i love to show you my latest work for a munich-based magazine, called SPY.
I illustrated a map, with a lot of nice places in it, to explore the city at it´s best!
And what a nostalgic coincidence- during the realization i moved from munich to berlin, although i know every tiny corner in munich´s geography from now on because i had to (with a mediculous precision) insert all the street names in every borough. extremly cool to be a walking navi….hm… but indeed a bit to late!!!

Go Outside

I love this Picture made by Anna Ådén. I found it today on Clemens Blog.

And I promise, you will feel a warm sun-reflection on your skin, when you hear this great song from the Cults at the same time!

okok, nun ist es Zeit Ihnen eine der wundervollsten Damen überhaupt vorzustellen…

Lady and Gents, treten Sie näher, setzen Sie sich und schauen Sie ganz genau hin! Ist Sie nicht zauberhaft, diese Ms. Monae!?

Ihre Stimme, ihre Erscheinung und diese Energie, welche sich in jedem Ton und durch jede Bewegung aufs Neue zu steigern scheint. Ich kann nicht weggucken, mir kaum einen Wimpernschlag verzeihen…

i cleaned up my photo library and my sd-cards and found these old pictures. i looked at the date, checked my old, battered calendar from 2007 and detected that this shot happend in Worms or Alzey during my work as a sales-rep. back in the days.
It´s nice to find such a souvenir 3 years later!

Wesley Willis

aennie — Thu, 22 Apr 2010 17:55:27 +0000

this is my desk. ok ok only a little part of the things which are on my desk.
essentially i like to show you the floral- ink drawing. it was a great “schöneberger” flea market- find and this great card with amazing colours- drawn by Wesley Willis (May 31, 1963 – August 21, 2003). i love his work so much!

Wikipedia knows it better:

“Wesley Lawrence Willis was a busker, musician, comedian and artist from Chicago. A diagnosed chronic schizophrenic, he gained a sizable cult following in the 1990s after releasing several hundred songs of simple but unique music, with emphasis on his humorous, bizarre, and frequently obscene lyrics. In addition to his large body of solo musical work, Willis fronted the punk rock band the Wesley Willis Fiasco. He also produced hundreds of unusual colored ink-pen drawings, most of them of the Chicago skyline and CTA buses.”

Besides the fact, he sang about all the things i like e.g. McDonalds, Batman i´m not really into his music…guess why?!

das ist Berlin, wie’s weint und wie´s lacht

aennie — Sat, 27 Feb 2010 17:33:52 +0000

Back!!!
Jetzt, angekommen in Berlin. Kopf reist noch nach.

Click here to view the embedded video.

Berlin, Berlin, Du bist ein heißes Pflaster
wer Dich nicht kennt, verbrüht sich leicht den Fuß
Wo die Moral wohnt, wohnt auch gleich das Laster
und der Verriß blüht neben süßem Schmus
Berlin, Berlin, hier lebt der Mensch gefährlich
und rutscht er aus, dann dreht sich keiner um
Doch haut er hin, dann ist er der Beifall ehrlich
- Berlin, Berlin, Du bist mein Publikum

Berlin, Berlin, wenn Deine Blumen sprießen
da draußen, in der Laubenkolonie
sieht man Dich steh´n und fleißig sie begießen
das Rosmarin und auch den Sellerie
Fühlt Mutter ihre Lebenszeit verfließen
im Testament wird schnell noch angebracht
Vergeßt mir nur nicht, Vatern zu begießen
- Das ist Berlin, wie’s weint und wie es lacht
- das ist Berlin, wie’s weint und wie es lacht

Mummy Boy

aennie — Fri, 15 Jan 2010 19:22:45 +0000

he wasn´t a soft and pink with a fat little tummy;
he was a hard and hollow, a little boy mummy.

“tell us, please, doctor, the reason or cause,
why our bundle of joy is just a bundle of gauze.”

“my diagnosis,” he said, “for the better or worse,
is that your son is the result of an old pharaoh´s curse.”

(…)

It was late in the day—just before dark.
Mummy boy took his dog for a walk in the park.

The park was empty except for a squirrel,
and a birthday party of an mexican girl.

the boys and girls had started to play,
but noticed that thing that looked like papier mâché .

“Look, it´s like a pinata,” said one of the boys,
“lets crack it wide open and get candy and toys.”

they took a baseball bat and whacked open his head.
Mummy boy fell to the ground; he finally was dead.

Inside of his head were no candy or prizes,
just a few stray beetles of various sizes.

Taken from TIM BURTON´S short story “MUMMY BOY“.
Abstract from a book, called “THE MELANCHOLY DEATH OF THE OYSTER BOY & OTHER STORIES”

ATP Festival

aennie — Sat, 09 Jan 2010 13:02:30 +0000

There is an amazing music festival which takes place in the UK. why haven´t i ever heard of it? thats pretty sad because the line-up sounds insanely great.
The Festival ALL TOMORROW´S PARTIES is named after THE VELVET UNDERGROUND song and was founded in 1999. The documentary about the concerts is now available on DVD and the trailer looks really promising!

WE LOVE YOU SO

i like to show you that great box of treasures. it´s the whole collection of all the printing blocks my grandparents and my parents used for catalogues, booklets, flyer and advertising for their own company. A lot of material of a half-century! it was such an exciting moment to unpack the carton. Besides old bills, notes and illustrations i found a cliché with an image of my grandparents- i think it was used for an anniversary issue…The two looked amazingly charming, right?

Oh and have a look at this nice campaign called HOME from MARTIN DE THURA (he also directed the amazing FEVER RAY´s “WHEN I GROW UP” and the Film YOUNG MAN FALLING)

usally i do not write about these personal things but today i´d like to make an exception: HAPPY BIRTHDAY, to my older and wiser brother Benedikt (he´s the second part of THE BAKERY and the other part of my brain).
I LOVE this picture…
As we were little he was an extraordinary “Frechdachs” but for now it´s getting better and better. Alle Liebe, Aennie.
