"tout bon"

A few thoughts on the boundaries of the individual





une question, s'il vous plaƮt

 
Milan Kundera once wrote that only the most naive of questions are truly serious.
That these questions, often without answers, set the limits of human possibilities.
 
So, you see why it is important to pose them.
 

 
 Diderot knew that aswell, long before Kundera. 
 

 
I like to imagine the face of whichever university official who collects the mail today.

Where words seem redundant

Even among all this pressing beauty, 
at Mount Edith Cavell, Canada
 There is always some room for words




Just a few notes,
and the rest is fresh air

Time and space in the land of Fantasy


In Sleeping Beauty's castle, 
time and space feel obsolete, unnecessary




Borges folded himself up and placed himself safely in this chandelier.


Distances used to be greater,
because space shrinks over time.

fighting failure of feeling

Maybe you are thinking that consumerism does not inspire anything?
You'd be wrong.


In this lovely Christmas shop at Disneyland, Paris
I sneaked in a little note to remind someone -anyone- of the importance of emotion.


The obvious, yet beautiful words from Kay Larson are waiting in this cup of Disney-Love.

Spending words, spending money...

There are books for just about anything. 
Or what do you think about this one, explaining how rich people spend their money?

There was a distinct need for some counter weight...


Respecting the section, 
economization of words was used for optimal impact.

Locking in love in London


    In a busy pub in Camden, a little Goethe will help just about anyone.
    Hopefully, this innocent message, scribbled on a menu will be picked up by a German speaker :)
