ABOUT ME
keep up a good spirit :)!
PHILOSOPHY
"He has all of the virtues I dislike and none of the vices I admire" W.C.
"The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes "Awww!" J.K.

Music, Movies, and Books
in the mood for love, the adventures of baron munchausen, chungking express, fear and loathing in las vegas, blow (and many others from johnny deep, amazing actor), rize (David LaChapelle kicks ass of course), useless to quote the inescapable Michel Gondry (eternal sunshine of a spotless mind, be kind rewind, many movie clips) ... are a sample of my cinematographic preferential tastes
Musically speaking there is too much too tell, but it actually started with the smashing pumpkins to land somewhat around the good manufactured elektro we can find in Berlin on a lazy wednesday night!
I strongly advise everyone to read most of the books from Nietzsche, at least "la genealogie de la morale" and "the Antichrist", a bit of Goethe "Les souffrances du jeune Werther", the classic "on the road" from Jack Kerouac, "No Logo" from Noami Klein, basically everything that supports a genuine, unconventional, no cliche, independant way of thinking. I almost forgot to quote Noam Chomsky who wrote "Understanding Power" and "Manufacturing Consent" which is for me a reference on how to think objectively and by yourself.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Base jumping with an elastic rope attached to my feet with Velcro and connected to an old rusty electric engine somewhere in China: I performed an amazing angel leap! Protection free aerial flip with a small trampoline in my garden... (that was my first and only movie). The longuest karate kata when I was 12. Recently shattered my knee trying to realize a "Beckham like" footballistic control, "nie wieder fußball für mich"
Teach, Learn, Share
the art of apero, fire cointreau shots without burning your hand, french cuisine / red wine, awesome CC air kicks, order a jug of beer and some spicy kebabs in mandarin (and compliment the waitress on the way)
