We need new stories

I receive visitors: 2 artists took 4 days to travel from Vienna to Salzburg by bicycle. One of them was somehow so disgusted by Salzburg that he left already less than 24 hours after arrival. The other one is sleeping right now. We watched Red Bull Salzburg win 2:1 over FF Malmö, a Champion's League qualification game sponsored by Gazprom. We saw the first half in an extremely sexist beer pub. On our table sat an employee of the →Salzburg AG that is disputed for political job gambling. The man asked me:"Have you ever accomplished anything in your life?" and I took the question as an insult. So we left to see the second half of the game in Peter Handke's favourite bar Miriam's Pub. On the way home while I was wondering what exactly I should write about I witnessed an employee from the corean restaurant Hibiskus throwing away garbage into a waste container that obviously belongs to the restaurant Costa. The guy from Costa started to fight with the corean cook saying that his restaurant would be paying for the emptying of the waste container and that he should piss off with his waste. They did not settle the fight until a lady from Costa talked to some trash administrator on the phone and they decided to settle the issue tomorrow.

 

Switching on my computer at home I am very happy to find an email from Felix Gmelin in my Inbox. He writes:

 

We need new stories. Since last year I conduct a research on children books about economy. Here follow some examples:

To me →David Hammons proves we can create better pictures for understanding ourselves and society. If we do, these pictures will cause change in the hands of new generations.
