"...There is a hint of complicity hovering in the air: the refinement of the taste buds and especially of the olfactory organs has its moments of weakness, of loss of class, when the cheeses on their platters seem to proffer themselves as if on the divans of a brothel. A perverse grin flickers in the satisfaction of debasing the object of one's own gluttony with lowering nicknames: crottin, boule de moine, bouton de calotte.[...]The elaborate and greedy order that he intended to make momentarily slips his mind; he stammers; he falls back on the most obvious, the most banal, the most advertised, as if the automatons of mass civilisation were waiting only for this moment of uncertainty on his part in order to seize him again and have him at their mercy..."

Paraphrasing Calvino- somehow cheesyly, Sam Renseiw proceeds to amalgamate footage from three recently visited installations/performances, creating a peculiar spatial mash-up with appended soundtrack.

"...The more different perspectives and diversified expertise, experience and strategies that fill up the space, the more impossible it gets for one identity to claim power over the space and it’s representations of a dominant national narrative, thereby allowing a temporary transformation of a national stage into a public meeting room..."

Having missed the movie night, the arabic lesson, and the juridical counseling for asylum seekers, Sam Renseiw nevertheless managed to immerse in "The shape of things to come, Kookenhagen in Copenhagen, Vampire performance talk, Olsson's kronkiting", and Krakel kompagniet's "Motherf.....& father figures ".

Today's Bonus Lumiere Video features a more mercantile, pre-set show.[Lum # 240,"Xmas window 1" 00'59'', 12 MB, Quicktime/mov)
