back in england, summer sun and spring lushness. the leaves on the oak were verging on iridescent.

its not often you find a decaying russian sub moored, ignored, in a random dock upstream of amsterdam centraal,
mouse / fryingpan / deluxe but delayed lunch / ruben and his boat (hello!) / crazy project talk / red light in daylight / open sea (as it goes) / russkie sub / giant arrows / skatepark in a warehouse roof / goodbye ruben / hello barney and the guardian / tripped the light fantastic / all night long
nice one jilt, a perfect day.
easter monday being the most quiet night of the year it seemed, there was nothing to do but drop the backgammon challenge: an end-of-job epic all of its own. and those freaky dutch rules.
there was a glorious easter sunday sunset, waiting for the tram. we’re at the loop at the end of the line, somehow very fitting for our bubble of motor show unreality. 15th day in a row, one more to go.

…raw herring, that is. allegedly very good for hangovers, welcome in a town such as amsterdam. the motorshow version probably wasn’t the best introduction.
the rai’s totem from the back of jilt’s bike, sitting on the pannier ‘dam-style. although we did bust the rim. or it bust itself. or something like that…
a steadycam operator on an all-terrain segway type thing… you can imagine the cool shots made possible, but it looked straight out of some robocop/terminator future. and, of course, i want i want i want.

you can’t escape: poster on the way to the rai in amsterdam riffing off house prices in london? eh?
the widescreen cropping does no favours for this shot, buts its a massive totem full of corporate logos outside the rai exhibition centre… with id&t as the top most hoarding, who are not some multinational corporation but the biggest clubnight promoters in town. not quite what you’d expect.

inside the stedelijk museum, a glorious red filled passageway. minutes later, a new image for the desktop and a sequence for a visuals loop. on that tip, the main exhibition was ‘mapping the city’: perfect for a urban obsessed visualista

first lunch in amsterdam: now thats my kind of pastry. as it turns out, its the name of the bakery, so thats somewhere i have to go find…
walking along, worked through the night before, unusually crisp day, look up, phonecam in pocket: for once, it wasn’t the sleep deprivation.

…but i love the photo, whatever it is. it was late, things had got blurry, and the order of photos points to it being at the indigo club. such is going out with a digicam =]

what you can’t see there, is the words ‘traffic police’ on the car. but eventually we got driven home, i got this from the flat, and thanks to the unrivaled powers of elif, the charge sheet was ripped up. not your average night.
because that would have just been too unreal; it just doesn’t happen that one promoter phones another when you’re with them in istanbul saying the klf are playing a secret gig at the opening night of a new club.
crazy. and that is pretty much side on.
