10 Moyens de se sortir d’un lift plate d’Allo Stop

10 Moyens de se sortir d’un lift plate d’Allo Stop, une liste compilée et rédigée de la main même de Meb.

Ma préférée : Se mettre un casque de moto sur la tête pour s’isoler complètement.

Bjork - Medulla

Her new album is out real soon. It’s gonna be something of a unique work of art: the music, arrangements, the artwork - absolutely all of it.

She is one of the most original, creative and authentic pop icon of the 90’s (and of the years to come, i am sure).

A swirl of inspiration, she’s a star, in both ways.

Un spécial dans la revue les Inrockuptibles est à venir. Voici un extrait :

“√áa a été comme une révélation: “Wouah ! Mes doigts et mes orteils bougent, mes poumons respirent!” Soudain, je me suis rappelé que le corps humain était un miracle, et que ça ne dépendait en rien de moi. Ce n’est pas parce que je l’ai décidé que je chante : c’est parce que mon corps l’a voulu, et qu’il m’a été donné ainsi.”

More found a little elsewhere:

“Many of the artists at Björk’s level of fame often suffer from musical dictatorship from their major label boss, and as a result the end product you hear is not their music at all. But not with Björk!

She is very much in charge of the music you hear, and I am so envious of her position: she has earnt herself the resources, the team and the musicians to make exactly the music she wants, at the moment she comes up with it. For me that would be a dream come true.”

Sur combien de pitons j’pèse par jours

le snooze bar, la machine à café, le clavier de mon ordi, la switch on de mon ampli, le clavier de mon téléphone cellulaire, le distributeur de ticket de transfert, le clavier de l’ascenceur, la switch on de mon ordi, le clavier de la machine distributrice du bureau, le clavier du guichet automatique, la télécommande de la télé, le clavier du piano, le clavier du téléphone, et finalement, le bouton ‘alarm on’ de mon réveil.

New agenda + facts

A girl i’ve met once told me she had a blog and she really liked to write on.

I asked her,
‘well, why did u stopped blogging then?’

she answered,
‘well, i felt in love with a boy’.

And it was about it.
Nothing more, nothing less.

Facts:
- postings on my blog dropped from 3 entries a day to 3 entries a week.
- i am more often head in clouds than working on my projects
- i forget everything
- i ask myself about 10 times a day about what the hell is going on with me.

lilo & orchid’s blog

En grande première, lilo’s first official post:

* lilo & orchid’s blog.

Holy-day.

Not that much to write about.

I have spent the last 2 days discussing life with antz, blowing on clouds and flowcharting and measuring moutains.

Holy-day.

Dan introduit un nouveau terme, la ‘lundite’, qui me plait mais avec lequel je n’ai pas à dealer puisque je ne travaille pas les lundis.

Ipod days

After dan and meb blogs, i have been introduced to francois’s blog earlier this week.

Here he is, with a funny post about ipods.. he!

unordered/stamped thoughts

i still have these flashes, why that?

berlin, hamburg, streets corner, buildings, places i used to be.

I dreamt last night that i was back there, in the home i have left.

why that?

After months, images are still coming back, like waves. and there’s nothing i can do about it, they just come, like to say ‘hey, haven’t you forgot about us yet?’

they are stamped in my mind. there’s nothing to do about it.

Thunder and lightning

heye, je sais pas qu’est ce qui se passe, mais v’la que même dan se remet à écrire…

Moi qui est de loin la seule geek dans mon groupe d’amis, ca m’aidera à me sentir moins différente d’eux.

Weekly obsession: Keane

A little more of it. Just a little. One more song.

I have been listening to Keane’s album on and on since 3 days, and it is of course, this week obsession:

From their debut album Hopes and Fears, a blend of sumptuous and catchy melodies along with poignant verses. If you liked Travis, Radiohead - the bends, you might enjoy their music as much as i.

Dating in 2004

Me and my new chumé have now shared enough saliva to go to the next step:
playing ‘everything and anything you wanna know about (lover’s name here)‘.

Type of question that could be used for the game are (you can also invent your own ones, be imaginative):

- why did you moved over here?
- last girlfriend (if and when, how long did it last, why did it ended)?
- tastes (music, food, favorite places, travels, readings, etc.)
- how does he spend time (beside being with you)?
and, the last but not the least,
- is he dating other people (girls/boys/pets) other than you?

Switch, it’s now your turn to answer questions.

There aren’t good or bad answers, but check out for the level of honesty in your partner’s eyes. This might reveal some things you’d better be careful with.

Good luck.

p.s: he keeps telling me that he isn’t reading my blog.

Obsession and new work

notitleAs you can see here, something close to be called an obsession is going on with Keane’s debut album.

Otherwise, i am about to finish a new painting. There’s no name for it yet.

I have several new pieces that aren’t online yet, this is because i am working on a new portfolio and i also prefer to spend time drawing and painting than updating my website. There should be about 10 new pieces, paintings and drawings, online in the next weeks. Stay tuned.

Under electric light’s performance

At Missy Bar on september 31th 2004.

This was dan’s first live performance under the name Under electric light. Earlier collaborations where with friend and roomate Adam (from Sabola) and workmate Mathieu Rodier (guitars) as first part for Vitamines for you.

We were a pretty receptive crowd, all expecting a great time between friends, eager to hear dan’s new stuff with live bass and guitars.

The boys did more than entertain us, they actually blew our socks off by the simplicity of well calculated bass and guitar lines over dan’s emotional electro beats tracks and strong melodies.

This isn’t just the beginning. They’re gonna rule the world someday, i am convinced.

Pictures and short videos of the show can be found right here.
