ArtCast

Every Saturday there is a fleemarket on the Petersplatz in Basel. A nice place to hang out and meet people. Really just by chance Barbara and Patrik bumped into each other there: Barbara lives around the corner, Patrik was taking a walk with his kids. When they sat down and started to chat, Patrik took out the m-audio and started to record the conversation more out of curiosity. The talking takes off at the fact that tomorrow on Sunday evening there starts a screening of the Situationist Guy Debords films at the Kunsthalle Basel. And jumps around from there in many directions... Admitted: sometimes we move on very thin ice. But who doesn't from time to time?
The image above theses lines? A spectacular giant inflated dog that was erected behind the bench where we sat. It appeared to us somehow appropriate to our subjects, among others: the society of spectacle...

Listen and enjoy!

basel is special, I always thought so. after all it very well may be the only city on this planet with a fleemarket, a market that you have to flee from as soon as you meet anyone else there. what happened to the good ol' fleamarket around these shores, I wonder? any suggestions? or could this be just the beginning of a wonderful - no, not friendship - but blog by the name of patpatpatzillus????
