films

Paul Graham, ‘Films’, 2011.
Published by MACK

At first sight the book shows a collection of color fields and abstract dots. But when you reach the end and see a list of almost extinct names like Kodacolor, Fujicolor, Tri-X, Kodachrome, Ektacolor, you realize the images are all extreme close-ups of raw film emulsion, beautifully printed on high-gloss paper to mimic the sheen of celluloid. Graham began scanning small portions of his blank film ends and unexposed frames. This way he presents us a tribute to the passing of film: grains, color dye clouds, black and white silver crystals, and its unavoidable small flaws like dust and scratches.

listen it here

I ve seen the sun and i've seen the blindness,
i bend on my knee hands touching the wind
waiting for the diamond hour
where there is no day and there is no night
and where the eyes will open from the inside

Rundfunks

Haus des Rundfunks ('House of Broadcasting'), was designed by Hans Poelzig in 1929 and is the oldest self-contained broadcasting house in the world. The imposing street facade is 150 metres long, set with dark iridescent bricks and red-brown ceramic tiles. The main hall is a light well shimmering in bright yellow.
