Full disclosure: I did some work for BFI earlier this year and really enjoyed it.

Art or entertainment?

“The difference between a ‘movie’ and a ‘film’ is that one is scared to death of boring you for a second and the latter refuses to entertain you for a moment.” — director Alan Parker via Neil Williams

I’m not much of a “film buff”.

Don’t get me wrong, I love a good film. My youth owes a lot to The English Patient, Pulp Fiction, and Real Genius.

Berlin 2025

I recently visited Berlin to run a workshop with a client. I took the opportunity to go a few days early and enjoy one of my favourite cities.

On previous visits I’ve:

Danced until dawn at Berghain
Seen a wonderful avant garde dance performance by Yumiko Yoshioka at Dock 11
Floated at the Liquidrom while listening to Yngwie Malmsteen-inspired trance music
Been moved at the Jewish Museum
Watched Moby DJ in the bottom of the (empty) pool at Stattbad
Danced at the KitKat Klub despite my lack of fetish gear

This time, I took a more relaxed approach but still had a blast.

Life-Log on
