homepage - june 2002  (homeology)

before we had our talks today we went with Key to listen to another one: HARD AND SOFT: ART & ARCHITECTURE. Ada Tolla and Giuseppe Lignano from LOT/EK, NYC, show very interesting transforming-space-projects, but all these projects have "weak contexts", well not all, okay, but they are all pretty designish.

and another special welcome! KAYA TERESA reaches saftly and soflty the earth! Mama Annette and Babba Stefan are telling us! soon we'll meet each other in little Big Torino!

april in february. its raining through the sun. got colder again, not easy in the sleepinghouse without any isolation…we have to talk to Martin (novaron) and about the NASA-stuff they used to isolate their new office-building…thermo-ceramics or something…

Märle, Curt, Teresa and omi drive to Coruña. rainsun again. but warmer today. we want to see C because of a Verner Panton retrospective and to visit the lighthouse. we like Verner and Verner likes us!

we think about to hang chairs into the sleepinghouse...for the second nose of the oval…when we see a hang chair study of Panton. statically it's the same and aesthetically it could fit the form and form the fit.

the lighthouse is fantastic. like really to give sign at the end of the world to those who went over the edge. a sculpture of a very early rocket dream. church shaped. have a view from this rocket: http://www.lavozdegalicia.com/galicia360/pelicula.jsp?foto=3

we're working on the text for bigguest.net - related…its so hard to say something clear and honest and not boring nor pathetic. after some days we stop. we have it. do we? we have to send it urgently to the translator if we want to have it italian/english. we invited all bigguests to write something. and we're surprised - almost everybody wants to also reflect with words!

finally we find a day to repair the "rain nose" of the sleepinghouse. what day is today? the 4th of March already! we have so much to do before to go to Turin! o! and we have to write for this arco_noticias_thing the text about Iturralde Gallery and Gustavo Artiga: DUPLEX. its easy. we liked the work, a video from G.A. from a perfomance he just did in the Fondazióne Telefónica in Madrid within this fair-trade-vanity circus a refreshing projection onto egotrippin' world. if you want to read the spanish text (104Kb) - we wrote?

finally we can put the staircase-zinc-plate-covering for the sleepinghouse. it never looked so finished.


we get asked from Casimiro, the man who runs the office where we insured Casqueiro, if we want to do propose a "similar concept" for Caridad as we proposed for Navia . this concept for Navia never was realized, while they were thinking about in which range they want to apply our idea the supermarket got built…but in Caridad it would be anyway not against some big buissnes, but in order to promote the small trades. well, we won't have time until June, but then we'll meet the people from Caridad…we never know what..

works fulfullfull of digidigidigi and hanging on the phone. www.bigguest.net has to be half filled until the end of march. it rains a lot these days, like god doesn't want us to go to the beach, but surf at home.
tomorrow Teresa and omi will leave to Turin again…until the end of may…now its getting really serious…in a bit more than a month we have to be ready for the big welcome.. check out www.bigtorino.net and www.bigguest.net. see you in June.
