About Me

Drifting

Interests

Some things that are unparelleled pleasures for me are: Crossing the mountains on a night train. Spending a long evening with a friend on an island, sitting by the sea drinking wine. Riding bikes across bridges. Having a morning coffee at the counter in a bar browsing a local newspaper. Taking a long walk in an immense park on sundays. Walking the streets in the early morning or when the night is just about to fall.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite director has been Tarkovski ever since I first discovered him. But others like Fellini, Bergman or Bresson have also touched me a lot (not original at all I know…)

I tend to like films that adopt the perspective of children. Recently enjoyed 'cria cuervos' and 'El espíritu de la colmena' for that reason. I also like slow and image -diving films- for that reason I have recently liked the films of Tsai ming-liang and Ryusuke Hamaguchi, for example

Music: nearly everything of Brahms. Beethoven's lates piano sonatas. Bartok's piano concertos. Schoenberg's early works Débussy, Ligeti. Schubert. Plenty of rock and songwriter music…

Literature -that's hard. Some foreign female poets like Alejandra Pizarnik, Cristina Campo, Inger Christensen are particularly with me these days. I am reading a lot of contemporary (especially German) poetry and am Always curious to find out what is happening in poetry in other countries. Prose: Kafka, Robert Walser, Dante, Dostoievski, Ovid Virginia Woolf Clarice Lispector Annie Dillard... Andersen, Henry James... to name just a few that I have read over and over... I also tend to like Afroamerican writers like Toni Morrison, Ngozi Adichie...
