Three books sold!

We sold three books to König bookshop this morning. Not much emotion in the man's face, the transaction was swift, I don't know how to read German! Found a very special music shop , stocked full of records made by visual artists. A collection and shop owned and run by Ursula Block. We met a lovely chap called Dieter, who chatted about the collection and was playing some Henning Christianson. Squeaky-bonk loveliness. We met with Enzo last night, he works here in Berlin as a lighting and sound tech, we chatted about Urban Spree venue.... He said oh, we call it Media Spree, MTV have an office there and it is selling derelict chic back to the youth. The spirit of Berlin is bring bought, sanitised and sold back to the tourists. we talk a lot about authenticity, and why the hell we are here? It is positive... We realise that animating a building and leafing people through an immersive show is old hat here and probably in the uk too. So what is next!!!! Ha ha, that's the exciting bit. If I could post an Image here I would but my wee phone can't handle it!! More thoughts soon from our Neukölln home, very trendy area btw, if you coming to Berlin soon, probably too gentrified in 8 months time!
