About Me

Bones, meat, half a bucket of blood and full of life eyes!

"Borders? I have never seen one. But I have heard they exist in the minds of some people." Thor Heyerdahl

"First they came for the communists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a communist.

Then they came for the socialists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a trade unionist.

Then they came for me,
and there was no one left to speak for me"
pastor Martin Niemöller

PHILOSOPHY

Imagine that you come to this planet with a box of pencils. May be, you've got a pack of eight pencils, may of sixteen. But depends on you how you use the colors that you have. Do not be afraid to go beyond the line. I say - paint over all!

Music, Movies, and Books

About books (i read a lot and permanently): My favorite authors: Dawkins, Hawking, Baudelaire, Lorca, Dostoyevsky, Nabokov, Kafka, Beigbeder, Lem, Bradbury, Victor Pelevin, Huxley, Michel Houellebecq...etc. I'm sure that book is a greatest invention of humanity

About movies: films by Lars von Trier, Kubrick, Giuseppe Tornatore, Lynch, Kusturica, Bertolucci, Tarkovsky, Amenabar, Julio Medem, Kim Ki-duk, Gaspar Noe, Godar, Pier Paolo Pasolini, De Sica, Milosh Forman, Woody Allen, Sorrentino...

About music: Sinatra, Amy Winehouse, Norah Jones, Buena Vista Social Club, Corey Taylor, Subsonica, jazz, blues, soul and rock (but not heavy!)

Teach, Learn, Share

What can I teach? OK, it should be something about Russia...maybe baking pancakes?

Oh..no! It's not about me. I've learned to cook, but I haven't learned yet to eat the things, that I cook!!!
OK, may be riding on a sleigh?

Oh...no! It seems the winter has passed...So it looks like I'm an useless thing! You can put me on the shelf and I will decorate your apartment)))
Wait! I can take my bear with me and it'll teach you to eat honey!
