“A karas is a group of people you are linked to by fate throughout your life. This doesn’t include fake karases like Bayern Munich fans or Facebook friends, but people who repeatedly show up in your life for no apparent reason. A Dupras is the smallest form of a karas consisting of only two people”
(nach Kurt Vonnegut / Cat´s cradle)

DOLDRUMS
20.9.2010, Alte Saline, Hallein

in the doldrums

where there is no direction but no guidance
where there is nowhere to go but no standstill
where there is no time but not a single moment
where there is nothing but no focus on any sense
where there is noone but nobody, you and the others
where there is no reason but no nonsense at all

O snail
Climb Mount Fuji,
But slowly, slowly!

Schmiede

Enlightened by verses from the bauble
We brood on ornate orreries
Which suspiciously resemble
A den of vices

Lasercut objects

Voreilig Blinken. Besser blieb’ es immer Nacht!
Gewaltsam schüttle Helios die Lockenglut;
Doch Menschenpfade, zu erhellen sind sie nicht.

ballpark figurines shattered to pieces (of art)
in the ambush of foresight
hereof scrutinised wording gloss heroes
sigh seeding in content contempt
the early prey feathered alike
