Yesterday we had the last Tuesday evening meeting in Zürich 2008. Like the week before, the weather wasn’t very cosy with temperatures below 10 degrees. Still labouring with a little cold I only competed in the Keirin event - but I won both nonetheless in the preliminary and the finals. In order to avoid all hassles and infights I took the front right from the start and managed to control the field from the front. The Japanese call this tactic ‘Senko’.
It’s a shame I only managed to compete in one Keirin at the Offene Rennbahn this year - It was a lot of fun! =)
Korean Artist Hyungkoo Lee, who once designed a helmet who could visually distort and alter facial features of the person wearing it, created in his new exhibition a collection of fictional, but eerily real looking skeletons of famous cartoon characters. How would Bugs Bunny look like if one of his ridiculous mishaps actually had some effect on him? Stunning.
Still don’t know where that’s from (I would really like to know the director), but it’s definitely viral marketing at it’s best… Absurd humour combined with great editing, fun acting and that seventies explotation movies flair - plain genius!
