I probably found the grayest part of Germany. It’s even like in Stockholm weeks ago, but it’s no vacation and more boredom. Rain in Krefeld.
In the age of photolitography, digital scanning and offset printing, it is as easy to print direclty from handwritten copy as from text that is typographically composed. Yet the typographer’s task is little changed. It is still to give the illusion of superhuman speed and stamina — and of superhuman patience and precision — to the writing hand.
Typography is just that: idealized writing.

Reinventing The Bathroom : Bathtub + Shower by Ron AradMy girl-friend Anne mailed me a link to freshome, where she found this article.
With this new concept Ron Arad decided to change how the bathroom look, so he has designed this incredibly unique luxury bath concept for Italian manufacturers Teuco, which rotates to become a shower. The elegant sculptural form serves two purposes, it could either be used as a shower, or it could be rotated 180 degrees to form a bathtub against the wall. Arad worked with Italian bathroom design brand Teuco to bring the concept to life. At this stage it’s still a prototype but Arad is confident that with Teuco’s production expertise his bath dream will soon be a reality in our own homes.
I’m leaving Berlin for eight days to Krefeld to visit my family and friends.
See you soon.
See you soon.

The older man the apartment above me is stamping for five minutes. Some weeks ago he told me, that he will do this if he hears (probably) my music too loud after 10 pm. But at the moment it’s half past eight and the music I’m listening to is on low volume or rather so faint I can’t here almost nothing.
Now I’m not quite sure if it is maybe an emergency and needs medical care or he just likes to annoy me. Dear Mister, please stop that or call an ambulance on your own. Thanks, Sebastian
Edit: He stopped. Hope he’s still fine, mh.
Tumblr Redesign
Ouw yeah, nach fünf Stunden nächtlicher Fleißarbeit ist es vollbracht. Mein Tumblr erstrahlt nun im Corporate-Design der SL3ERLIN.
So if you not only reading this posting in the dashboard, you can see that my tumblr also has a new layout. New tumblr theme created by Patrick Beser. Wheee! P.S.: Does anyone know how I could solve the problem of my transparent linked images here? If so, drope me a line via mail: sebastian.waters at gmail.com — Thanks!

while waiting get yourself a coffee and/or read this article (The straight man’s guide to get hit on by gays)

“Palin is a “firm supporter of abstinence-only education in schools” according to CNN in 2006. When running for governor in 2006, Palin wrote, “Yes, the explicit sex-ed programs will not find my support,” in response to a questionnaire by the Eagle Forum Alaska.” (via wikipedia)
