Blind Husbands

I want to point out one event to you which takes place in the scope of the Festival Bolzano Cinema:

next Friday, the 18th of April
at 1800
in Capitol Cinema

there will be the presentation of the re-edited and re-musicated film “Blind Husbands” (1918) which was written and directed by Erich von Stroheim.

As I have mentioned to you in an earlier post, one of the musical projects I joined was the recording and performance of the new soundtrack, composed by Tiziano Popoli. I have heard some parts of the new mix and seen some preliminary version, however the final result will only be shown on that day. Furthermore, everyone attending the event will obtain the DVD for free :)
Hope to see you there!

Birthdayparty

Last night Tadas and me celebrated our birthdays. It was a really nice party, can't in fact remember one I enjoyed so much in quite some time. The games were very funny and luckily (even though some poor people missed out on that fun) enough were present to free the two of us from the dark dungeon. Very many thanks for this one! :) When midnight approached I got an amazing surprise: people had joined for a fantastic present, a real guitar!! I'm still so happy and keep annoying my neighbours trying to learn Eric Clapton songs....
As proof of our newly gained freedom here a picture of happily saved birthdaykids.. :)

The latest possible moment

What is it about that particular moment that people so often try to push each and every decision until it is reached? In some very hairy issues it might be useful, I suppose, because you need to know more about your situation to get a better estimate. However, in daily life, it does not seem to pay off that well, especially if it results to postponing and accumulating things that have to be done nevertheless. Additionally, this phenomenon becomes even more frustrating the more people are involved. Even though there might be a common goal to be achieved, noone seems willing to decide and passes around responsibility, sometimes even despite knowing more than others. So I just wonder what it is that makes people so scared on making even the smallest decisions that would maybe cause a temporal loss of complete freedom for about 5 minutes..

bothered

Why is it so easy to feel bothered? Most of the time the reasons for being happy could outweigh all the stupidities one comes accross... but even if you decide to be in a good mood this sometimes does not really help. Strange.. maybe life's just too fast to sit back and see things in proportion.
