They are melting cheese in my honour....

Some kind lasses are doing this for me (This is not an open invitation I'm afraid):
Dear All
In honour of Martina and Justin let's have a wonderful Fondue dinner : )
It woud be great if you can come!
Best Patricia and Janine
This is kind of like a knighthood here for beginners to Swissness.
Sorry about the blog silence I've been busy..... numerous days of cultural immersion....... in a row.
I've sucked up so much culture this week I could pop

Show opening after show opening after party after play after dance performance.. not just trivial socializing either..
Caining it...
Just started working yesterday.....ideas coming out like popcorn....

is the one thing that I saw
Loosely translated: perfection is not sexy....
Jimmy is a Dancer.
I watched him perform ( please don't convince yourself that vimeo experience conveys any of the calibre of a real performance)
He has no legs.
He drove me to a party after.
In the Snow.
It was in that strange room on the Die Antwoord site. (Not sure if you've been privy to their recent stellar climb to fame.... www.dieantwoord.com http://www.dieantwoord.com/secret.html )
He was one of 5 different people than spun me that evening.
You should meet him.
You know when you see an ant sukkeling with something 3 times it's size.... being around him's a bit like that would be if you were 5mm tall.
Once again I felt like I was in Ghostwritten. In all the narratives at the same time.

Friday went to an opening, then for a birthday drink with James the dancer in the wheelchair which turned into dinner at a German club and dancing at a Funk night....
Was a bit tiring, and full of cigarettes got to sleep at 4. But had a good skank.
Did it all on my bicycle which was intrepid as I had to cross the city 4 times in heavy snow fall....
When you invade a Swiss dance floor with professional dancers in 2 wheelchairs and one with a stroke you got yourself an evening to remember
Saturday I saw this: http://www.kaserne-basel.ch/Gesamtprogramm/130210
which was Robert Palmer on mescaline meets the Thomas Crown Affair.and then two shite bands.
Very Japanese meets very Swiss, but some very resonant moments and I'm not easily won by expressive dance.
I have set a date for my open studio, & I'll post the invite for you all tomorrow.
I'll of course also have to knuckle down and try to knock something memorable out... it's looking promising
Wish me luck
