Canadian band The Weather Station live in Munich on Europe tour. A truly inspiring and emotional experience. Not only does the lead Tamara Lindeman have a wonderful voice but she is indeed a fantastic lyricist. The band is amazing, too. Crossing genres, they are excellent live.

YouTube video by oKoalaKi Serial Experiment Lain (ep3 scene)

Stuck with the flu I rewatched Serial Experiments Lain. When I first saw it as a teen in 2004 it blew my mind. Even though it is from 1998 it is still visionary, atmospheric, haunting, thought provoking. About AI, human connection and the question: what is reality? #anime youtu.be/xVf7fiQG1NM?...

Inside New Delhi Airport: A quiet moment captured. A child stands by the large window looking out at the runway, while a man with a backpack gazes outside, lost in thought. In the foreground, another traveler lounges on a red chair, resting beside their bags on the patterned carpet. The hazy sky and empty runway stretch beyond the glass wall, giving a sense of stillness and waiting.

2024 - first time India for a business trip. Short, but felt like a long journey. So many new impressions! A culture I only got familiar with via calls with colleagues. Felt good to get in touch with the reality of others.

A cityscape at sunset with golden sunlight casting a warm glow over the buildings. The sun is partially obscured by dark clouds, creating a dramatic contrast between light and shadow. The skyline fades into the horizon, with distant structures becoming hazy. A tall smokestack in the background emits a plume of smoke, blending into the sky. The city appears densely packed with buildings of various heights, and some windows reflect the sunlight. The atmosphere is misty, enhancing the sense of depth and scale.

2010 - we went to Hyatt Park Hotel, where Lost in Translation was filmed. A small pot of tea was almost 20$. With student budget we stayed extra long. Until the clouds open for this gorgeous sunset. Was worth the money :)

Thanks for the recommendation! I didn’t know that album yet. Just came back from a concert with Mare Nostrum. Fantastic musicians and great atmosphere in the audience. There is something about the sound of that trio that gives me goosebumps and moves me to tears for many years - wonderful!

My short film The Lost Tower is now available in 4K on YouTube!
Amazing collaboration with Louis Lacoste for the incredible music and sound design, and to my buddy Pierre Lazarevic for his help with the title design.
Made with #blender #b3d
Hope you will enjoy it!
