FREUDE AM MALEN

Ok, smearing a die-cast model with ordinary spray paint is probably not art yet ;0)

But as I'm neither Andy Warhol or Jeff Koons or Olafur Elliason nor did I receive a multi-million dollar assignment by BMW that's not the point!

No, the BMW Art Car Project goes far beyond this and to me every car is a true piece of art! Moreover, the idea of upgrading a brand's image by adding a twist of art is best-in-class marketing and therefore quite striking too!

So even if you're not into Beamers you should find some very inspiring insights here: http://www.bmw-art-cars.de/

SOMETIMES ...

... you need new inspiration or adventures. Found these days a new magazine called CUT which is published in munich. Unfortunately I missed the first issue, but like the second one very much. There might be a lot to discover for us tinkers out there ... ;o)

A BEAUTIFUL E-PAPER ...

... so here's a little "colour" for our "grey" desktops ;o)

Check out castle magazin from good old munich ...

SPECIAL PLACES ...

... want to be found!

MHMMMM

OLDSCHOOL

Lovely details in a cocktailbar downtown in Munich. Was fun to visit the "Trinkhalle"...

FRESH TO EAT

You don't have to wait much longer ...
Spring is in the air. And everything is going to be (b)right!

SURFING MUNICH'S EISBACH

Yes – riding a few waves on this pretty fast flowing water somewhere in Munich's neatly kept city green right before the police catches you, seems to be rather a thrilling thing to do. 

Probably even more so if the sun shines as bright as it did last Thursday.

Aloha ;-)

STREET ART IN NOMINI PATRI E FILI I ESPIRITU SANCTI:

And thou shalt spread your art around down town, 

with all thy heart and all thy soul!

Amen!

SMILE: SPRING IS FINALLY THERE!

ANYBODY OUT THERE?

E.T. e-mails home, is there anybody out there? ¡Saludos!

GRAN TORINO

We watched the latest, breathtaking Eastwood movie last Saturday!

And even though the overall story was a quite simple one it was so nicely narrated and with a rather unexpected ending that to me this movie is one of the finest in 2009 for sure!

Check the trailer, the great score and get yourself some tickets for tomorrow night in case you haven't seen it so far!

Thank you Clint!

FROM MUNICH WITH LOVE ;o)

REMINDERS #6

A GRATIFICATION

After a long journey there has to be something special waiting for you!

THE MAGIC BOX – RELOADED ...

... was filled with the yummiest candy (mampf!) and some sincere thoughts from our dear old buddy from the other side of the world! Thank you so much ;o)

Love,

J&N

WE PACKED THE FIRST HEAVY BAGS ;o)

WINTERZEIT #2

Wintertime on my everyday way to work...

VISIT OF A SOLAR LIVING AREA

I was wondering these days, what was happening in the city-center of Munich. Just in three days there was built a new house next to the cityhall.

Look here http://www.solardecathlon.de/

THE MAGIC BOX

And along it came, on a magical day hard to forget. Wortlos, I can only thank you. But then I can say... watch out dudes!, you are gonna get what you give! ;)

First impressions: wonder, happyness, suprise. Life is ever surprising. Second impression: I though I was nuts, but now I see my friends are somewhat crazy too. Third one: the amazing and vibrating feeling of not knowing. And particularly in this case, not knowing what's inside. Fourth, handwritten wishes, memories, love. Fifth, Maaaarzipan! Genau!. Still more of theese to come... some new, such as the Elisenlebkuchen from Bavarian Nürnberg.

To both of you and to Simone, ¡un abrazo grande!, thinking of you, hope all is well.

Matias.
