back to reality. taizé lays behind me and the brothers there said it: we don't give you answers. we hope to give you some good questions. so - among meeting many many great people from all over the europe (you know who you are!), some personal questions still wait for me. returning to brno means thinking about living, working etc. today i met kombajn, tryhuk, michal+martinka and it was nice... but still - i feel uneasy somehow. i wonder whether i'm able to change myself. to get rid of my own whining if nothing else... (comment?)
environment : a.camus: the fall česky jako 'pád' - v sekci spisovatelé najdete stránku i o této knize, respektive několik ukázek, ovšem zdaleka nevypovídají o tom, jak silně tato krátká kniha působí v celku: prostě síla. the fall: for me maybe most powerfull camus' piece - a confession of a man - too similar to me in many ways. damn it ;]

i've been lazy and still - lots of stuff going on here. watching films (deconstructing harry and donnie brasco were the best) and meeting people. yesterday i footslogged 30 km. very good after sitting all the time by the computer (check a few tryhuk's photos). i'm trying to transform my ba degree paper into a webpage (to be published on message soon). i recieved couple of mails from people i met in taizé - thank you! on friday it was a session by pavel š. - plus jana & tomáš, i would miss those sessions and i hope we'll see each other next year too!
now for some links - new articles (at last!) on cosmoboy, some more interesting blogs all around (vozovna - i like the name and the content too, žertva - funny, but has ended today). tv nova (but newspapers too) is having troubles with the news - nothing's happenning (at least it seems so). so the quote of the week - "prase ve tvaru sekané" (pig in shape of the mince) - it was in saturday's evening news.
and my beloved is probably distant away... in a way. i miss her very much. (comments:1)
environment : chicane: far from the maddening crows ideal for relaxing and laidback easy tuning... :)
alpha conspiracy: live at red fez a nice album by andrew sega aka necros, maybe you can find it on the web (i haven't), thanks to tryhuk for this one...
too stupid to be president lot of funny reading and some good animations as well...

again 2:05 am... well, tommorow (goddamn.. today i mean) i'm going to change my style (a bit) with kombajn and then i got some wicked news for next week... just wait and see :) with žertva it was not an end, but rather a pause and now the story's getting even more interesting. and correcting mistakes in last entry... found 4 :]
ps: just an update - i realized i haven't add JB in the recommended! shame on me :] so now you have it... (comment?)
environment : james brown: foundations of funk - a brand new bag double cd with all the funky funky pearls!! now i don't have to go to the slow bar to hear the godfather of funk :) he's the man, even broncs ppl know that :]

seems the endless sweltering heat is over. i bought new garfield book. i bought some clothes. today when finishing the webpage of my ba work i've found an interview with zden. yesterday it was the first bhutan movie ever - the cup (how buddhistic monks went crazy because of football championship). and few days before b. monkey (not very clever, but funny romantic movie with breathtaking asia argento and even better acting rupert everett). (comments:2)
environment : setec: equilibrium dark ambient. nothing epoch-making, but pretty atmospheric.
za trvalý mír agitprop. in czech.

haven't been very active - more or less just rethinking the future possibilities and plans. writing and reading a lot. visited prague (shakul, ufo, rivka, alina, ivana - nice company). i've also went to see our great football team :) yes, i was there and i saw another victory of our colours :]] not to forget, it's been 35 years since the sudden end of a short period of hope - the prague spring (an english exhibition). in a way - i'm very tired. (comment?)
environment : o.s.card: ender's game tak jsem se znovu začetl do téhle slavné ságy - výborná sci-fi, která graduje s dalšími díly... a different point of view on many typical sci-fi cliché makes you forget about some of the points which seemed to me too heroical or improbable.
recoil: liquid an interesting project of former depeche mode member alan wilder. very dark music, lot of interesting details... warning: don't go thru if you feel unsound. the extra comprehensive site is both in czech and english.
kyllönen: fourfour hq edit the music for dakrness, 1984 especially... one of the milk wonders, rest in peace!
peru 2003 lots and lots of gorgeous photos...

so much happened and i can't even describe it. but i feel much better now. still looking for work, but this week i was helping - manual work, simply a blue collar job. on tuesday 14 hours. wicked. recommended for all you lazy (pseudo)intellectual assholes :] i (should have done it ages before) have installed soulseek and i'm exploring the realm :) lot of good music, that's it. and interesting people too... and i must thank very much my beloved. and not only for passing me an information about l. fikar's samotín (my very favourite poems, which has been published again after 25 or so years). but just the fact i know her makes the world look much better. thinking about going to ars electronica. but i don't want to go there if there's noone i know... last thing: too bad - seems that summer has ended yesterday. (comment?)
environment : manu chao: radio bemba sound system a very good one even for those who were a little bit tired with the studio cds... this live concert is much faster, full of energy, simply a must for the late summer :)
bliss: it's not the sweetness we're after, it's the sugar ep wicked name - and a little bit untypical release for this guy - and i say it's just very good: normally he had more commercial sound, but the way he went this time, all friends of fragile sound will be happy :)
noční úvahy this is - in a way - an ad. because this is my mother's weblog. lot of interesting stories about religions, mythology... :) in czech only.
