Leaving on a LADA
/////////////////////////////////
//
I'm leaving for prague in about ten minutes. Flocki's driving.
Honestly, i don't want to go. I feel like everytime i come back, things change for the worse. I know that this is just bad thoughts, but having all the people you like scattered all over the place (the world, that is) and never spending too much time with anyone before going somewhere else is kinda exhausting.
I need to make myself a home. Somewhere.
Though, of course, i'm far from complaining. Ain't it cool to do that whole art stuff? Meet interesting people?
Yes and yes.
So stay tuned for some pictures and stuff. Whatever.
So i'm writing this down to remind myself:
When i'm back i am going to sit down and get some work done.
After all, getting something done is one of the more rewarding things that happened to me recently.
Besides, as some might know I've been to stuttgart last week at the fmx conference and it was fun. Not so much the lectures - i just watched two or so - but meeting a lot of people i really enjoyed talking to.
Unfortunately, as always, there wasn't really that much time to talk to everyone i wanted to, though I've been there for a week, but it was great to have some good time with the Klaus boys (the two of them) and the weird people from hamburg doing this magazine.
Oh, you might want to check that out once it's finished here.
And then there was the relaxing part on sunday, which i REALLY enjoyed.
.
What else to say? Demoscene people are queer, but cool. VIP dinners have good food and lousy talk if you're not in the mood. And yes, it feels kinda strange to be hyped so much. Not me personally, but the medium and all that. It seems like people need to talk about something new, so they desperately searched for something media related...
I dunno. On the one hand it's cool and i think what were doing is really going somewhere. On the other hand, when compared to what people on the fmx were talking about and expecting, i can't help but feel a little misplaced. There's still a lot of work to do to make people understand what we're doing. And why should they care anyways? It's not elaborate enough to be art and not easy enough (yet) to be the democratic revolution in filmmaking we all want it to be.
Maybe bitfilm will help.
Maybe.
