I always take too many pictures, and this time I was even bored with my heavy camera so the photos did not go into Gigabytes as usual. Still there was tons to see in Amsterdam, and here is some more stuff.
A curious fur covered tea pot in the fabulous
Frozen Fountain store. And speaking of stores, another one not to miss is
SPRMRKT on Rozengracht.
and again a better view of the tilted cube building which I like so much but have no idea what it is
A human explosion painting and
a salt related polygon object-thing in
Rijksmuseum
an ambiguous and amazingly colored red tree in Vondel Park
and the sunset from OA flight bla bla bla, a picture I always take and it never looks the same again.
A second Second Life post in row? I must be running out of stuff to post here... Truth is I'm swamped with approaching deadlines and these images have been hanging around for a while. One day I was bored walking around looking for cool 3D stuff and happend on a game yard with casinos and slot machines
and shoot them games and Miltos came online and he's always obsessed with video games so I showed him that you can actualy play a game even when you are inside another game. Which is exactly the scenario from one of my totally favorite films, David Kronenbergs' "eXistnZ". 
So anyway we walked right up to the Duck Hunt and realised that not only we could shoot ducks but that the space was enterable! We could enter the space of the screen! 
Like two video game Alices in a double wonderland, we were inside the space of a game which was inside the space of a place that is not really a game which was inside the screens of our multitasking laptops that a lot of people use for work but not for play.
Normally I dont' care for cemeteries but this is such an exception. Tomba Brion was designed by Carlo Scarpa as a falmily tomb for the wealthy 
It is a wacked out surrelist landscape of abstract geometries and just bizzare all over. Plus it's designed to look better as it gets older, in fact it's designed like a future ruin. I got the pics all from all over the place, in 
And 
They were architects, writers, poets, painters and scientists who just had enough and wanted to drop out of contemporary society. Yes taxi driver, you can definetly drop me off here.
It looks scary and it is scary too: I think this is part of the main garbage processing (dumping) plant.
Somehow this looks like it could have been part of OMA's sushi urbanism a couple of years ago? or a couple of decades ago? or maybe its just too late at night to concentrate on anything. This is just over the hills of Nikea, I wonder what it is.
Classic polka dot wasteland.
Lightbulb Piazza? How useless to cut a freeway through a park. Somebody obviously got carried away at the drawing board and forgot what they were drawing.
Naturally I'm obsessed with Lost, and today we watched the last episode of the 3rd season: It just gets better all the time. If you havent seen it, its a metaphysical Robinson Crusoe situation with a fantastic cast of characters surrounded by a super spooky tropical island
and threatened by The Others, Polar bears , whispers in the jungle 
and my favourite enemy, the Smoke Monster, a obvious referance to the bad guys in 
Been walking around Amsterdam for the past 3 days, and here's some things that tickled my fancy, like this stripped building somewhere close to Leitze Pleijn
Ballons on Lijnbaansgracht
random urban agglomeration close to Post CS
