Ohne Worte / Without words
You might notice, i don’t often write here. But these last two postings, described perfectly well, a situation i wanted to share. Me swinging under a tree, with the feeling of “not being around”. Thats how mario oucci described that moment. Yesterday i woke up and was in that state, went out in that state, walked around, hardly able to grasp anything. Thats what came to mind, that photo.
That sort of connection, its very common with many of the bits, pieces and findings i collect here. They reflect a feeling, something words can hardly describe. It often takes a hole movie, song, moment, expression.
And so is San tiao ren (1999) aka “Away with words” still my favorite movie. Because it also deals with words and languages, but also communicates a feeling i can only name “global” and “modern”. And those two words don’t describe it at all.
But i can’t, i can’t find the right words for it. Not for you, not without knowing you, not without knowing your background, your culture, your way of talking, your opinions.
So words end up being a connection for me, “tags”, a point of orientation. Words that are common, so everyone is able to understand them.
