Bible Verses To Put In Thank You Cards

Exploration: Two games in Berlin.

Exploration: "Old water pump"
Ubiación Street Bredowstraβe, Berlin
Author: Helikia.

was my first day in Berlin and I was a little nervous, as always chaotic reach an unknown country. The goal then was to find a hostel, tremendous feat especially if you speak German and do not know the bus route, but fortunately, contrary to what they say about the Germans, we came across a couple that to our faces viejillos missing children came to our aid, showing the right path to what would be our home for a "long" days.

The streets of Berlin in structure are similar to ours, but undeniably the atmosphere is completely different, because they are nostalgic streets, where the prevailing green of the trees and litter, where people walk like ghosts in a complete silence, which tends to be interrupted from time to time by the wind (which is curious because it is a neighborhood of students). As we walked through the streets, people in the Turkish coffee (which certainly abound in this neighborhood called Moabit) snoops watching us while smoking their water pipes, and was right in front of a cafe that I found it, While there, upright plant, silent witness of the past, claiming the space was there, knowing to be a retiree, having new to adapt to it and causing admiration of strangers. A few days after I left, but I'm sure that if ever I return, she will be there with the same position in which I found superb.











Exploration: "Looking through the eye to the past"
Ubiación: The Berlin Wall.
scan Author: Helikia.

After a while I missed the intricate German metro lines, where the seasons are not monkeys, and also all the stations have names like: Schillingstraβe, Schönleinstraβe Gneisenaustraβe and I arrived at my destination, the famous Berlin Wall which fortunately is preserved only a few meters. I say fortunately because it has become a living testimony of the atrocities can be committed in the name of irrationality dehumanized.

As you admire the graffiti and the odd mark left by visitors, I found that little window and oxidized by the passage of time and covered with herbs, which looked toward the river, the truth was a pleasant surprise, because he had already walked a bit and all I saw was a pile of bricks on bricks and with other other bricks, covered with paint mixing and makeup that made images of condemnation of what happened, put pictures in the hope anymore. As for me, I guess someone else also, that window will brighten your day ... or even a night, but I'm sure, is that that window was the cause of several deaths.

after seeing that little eye that looks to the past, I kept walking and looking at the graffiti, when I came upon an open porch How many in our ignorance, we wondered who's behind the wall? Her response to me, and then that I look, and how he he! Find a site where a BAR was a lot of repression, and not only that, it was a bar with an artificial beach, an ideal place to "socialize" this beach is frequented mainly by the native German, which seeks the afternoon sun coloring her white meat, sitting with crowns on their hand and say prost!

Street art: Blu the Terrible.

Urban Art: Blu, an Italian artist in Mexico.
Post Author: Brainwashed Poet.

Urban space is boring. The houses are all similar, no one has to pay a good architect, graffiti bored or overwhelmed with their poor quality and its endless repetition (copying talentless teenagers and over again). You turn a corner and you find miles of publicity, blablabla, sex, blablabla, consume.

However there is always something beautiful or at least disconcerting to see, for example, the new global trend, the Street Art. I will not be condescending in Mexico most of the street art is shit, sticket, sticket, stencil, ugly or foolish, the fool who sticks his ninjas, or other che faces or eyes cassetito, is a mediocrity terrible. Of course there are always exceptions to brighten up the space but this time not speak Mexican artists but an Italian who went ago bit here: Blu, who has a very particular way of understanding the painting on the wall, he does not use paint spray, he uses rollers, he does not write lyrics twisted, he creates a giant monster mythology bald men. His work is fantastic as both policy (although their messages are not as obvious as those of Banksy, for example) and always monumental, has toured Europe and America creating monsters in the collapsed buildings of the metropolis (never paints the funds but leaving the texture and the actual colors of the sduperficie) and has done collaborations with other greats like the veteran (although for my taste not so good and has lost its way) Obey (that of Andre the Giant stickets http://obeygiant.com/ who incidentally already said in the Carrillo Gil). Undoubtedly Blu is one of the finest examples of street art and I like in particular by their distance graffiti style and even typical stencil, his works are more related to illustrators of children's stories or Germans and Italians always adding a touch disturbing.

Blu, along with Lorenzo Fonda created a project called MEGUNCIA-Mexico, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Argentina ( http://www.megunica.org/ ) in which he documented with video and photography his Latin American tour. In Mexico Blu cruised Mexico City, Puebla and Merida.



These are some of the works he did in Mexico:

"I always shit in your fucking country,

No, no installation is unpatriotic, no, I guess the left there for an exchange for another, the fact is that it is a beautiful image of a country in ruins that speaks for itself.

Mariner 25 Electric Start Conversion Kit



Name exploration: Abandoned house

Location: Av Revolution.

scan author: Mary Ethyl


is said that in the areas west of the city on summer afternoons have always been cool, I do not know, the whole city seems like a furnace from 12 to 5 at any time of year, unless it's raining today. I left around noon in search of a bar located on Avenida Revolución and a minor street where my father say, make a seafood soup as hell, so as not to be alone with his words that I was to meet soup.

had tasted worse really, but if it was really bad. After 2 beers and 2 tonics decided to return home. I passed the fire station in the area, which will be described in further exploration, weaves through the streets and neighborhoods that they forget the maps and real estate at the time to convince their unsuspecting customers to buy new apartments with roof garden and gym in the common area of \u200b\u200bthe newly opened and multifunctional building somewhere, I also passed by an evangelical church that's absurd position, fortunately no one knows exists, and so on until I found this house, forgotten in the núermo 118, Street Science, between Jose Maria Vigil and Constitution Street, in the Escandon.

Without further reference, the images indicate time of abandonment. The facade worn, broken glass, autumn caught in the windows, garbage welcoming visitors, the roof of the hall and its focus, loyal companion, waiting to nothing demolish four pots on the balcony inside, proud witness to the occupation will soon undergo its small space at the hands of the unstoppable weed. A thick chain step defending against foreign time.
