Some might think it’s sad that I came from work only after dark on the longest day of the year, but it gave me the opportunity to get these pictures of the Riesenrad.

Riesenrad, again
Montag, Juni 21st, 2010Hear Me Sing
Freitag, Juni 18th, 2010Last night I went to choir practice for the first time in over a year. Mentioning the fact on twitter naturally led to the question what we do, so I went on youtube to see if they had a few examples of the music we like. Turns out they had, and not just of the music, but also of us performing.
A word of caution: These are random recordings that don’t show us at our best; although I really don’t think youtube is right to link to Jimmy’s Infantile Spasms in the related videos column.
In 2009, a few of us went to Milan to take part in a festival called Politicanto. It was great fun and we met a lot of wonderful people there.
In Vienna, every Friday the 13th is celebrated in it’s own unique way. It’s about having fun, but it’s also a political statement, taking back the public space and making parts of society visible that tends to stay hidden.
Summer in Vienna, part four
Sonntag, Juni 13th, 2010Today, I tried to find a few locations to see Vienna from above. The city is not known for its many skyscrapers. There are a few elevated places, however.

Of course, a blog post like this could never be complete without a few pictures of the Riesenrad.
