Observation of a teenager using a walkman:

"Some aspects of how to use the device were unintuitive: It took me three days to figure out that there was another side to the tape."

Frau Antje and how to sell cheese through the use of stereotypes

The Dutch Dairy Bureau deals with the promotion of Dutch cheese. A logo
was designed especially for this, depicting a girl in traditional
costume. In 1961, she was named Frau Antje in Germany. From that day on, Frau Antje
has been a celebrity, appearing in advertising campaigns and at
important events.

Rabbit a la Berlin

"It's an important lesson of history that a system of order intended to produce one result will often give birth to something entirely unexpected. So it was with the Berlin Wall, which was, in fact, two separate walls, one on the east and one on the west with a 120-kilometre strip of land between them. The enclosed patch was unintentionally converted into a kind of rabbit reserve as the walls encircled the lush green meadows of Potsdamer Platz and cut its rabbit population off from both escape and predators. But then one day the walls came down and the rabbits were suddenly freed from a restrictive system, albeit one to which they had become accustomed. Told in the style of a nature documentary, with a captivatingly dreamy tone and a tongue-in-cheek nod to the story's allegorical significance, Rabbit a la Berlin provides a fascinating history lesson told through the eyes of animals" .

Tomorrow - My White Bicycle (1967)

Rated Oct 12 • 3 reviews • video, psychedelic music • youtube.com

The White Bicycle plan (Witte fietsen) started in the 1960s in association with counterculture movement Provo, This provided free white bicycles in Amsterdam and these were supposed to be used for one trip and then left for someone else. Within a month, however, most of the bikes had been stolen.

Provo also spread the rumour that it was planning to put LSD in the Amsterdam water supply during a royal wedding in 1966. This led the authorities to request 25,000 troops to help guard the parade route.

Neuroskeptic: The Man With Half A Brain

Rated Oct 12 • 2 reviews • medical science, neuroscience • blogspot.com

From the page: "For me, Roger provides two main lessons, both rather satisfying ones. Firstly, even after losing large parts of the brain, life goes on. The brain is modular, and we can live without many of the modules. And secondly, if our emotional circuitry is damaged, we generally feel better, rather than worse. To put it another way, perhaps, happiness is our default state, and emotions just have a habit of getting in the way."

All Roads Lead To Ausfahrt - NoMeansNo - Discover music...

Rated Sep 24 • 1 review • punk rock, nomeansno • last.fm

Tomorrow I'm going to Austria once again. I've visited this country annually ever since I was four years old. As a child driving through Germany on my way there, I was puzzled by the signs saying Ausfahrt at every exit of the Autobahn (you just don't say highway to the German Autobahn) . Not knowing better, I concluded that all roads must lead to a city called Ausfahrt. So did these Canadians.
