Alva Noto

As I'm little bit delayed with posting, I have something I wanted to tell you about a few weeks ago. 


Someone might say we are crazy people at the Supermedia studio, and I assure you that after reading this, you might think that too.  I consider myself as a lover of music with beautiful lyrics and pure melodies, sounds right from heart. On the other hand I can listen almost everything, even music what is simply pissing me off, and my big passion is electronic music (might have something to do with my running). 
So it happened that David and Federico let us know about upcoming concert of one, well how to say that, musician? We reserved ticket for those who wanted to see this pure electronic performance live and we went for a trip. 




 I was little bit skeptical, how the hell I will be able to listen this for an hour? I like it on youtube where it's short, but what about live performance? Dear friends, we sit to the chairs in one theatre, light went off and suddenly, out of the dark I felt just one simple beat coming through my body. 50 minutes of my body just vibrating and watching stripes layered one on each other. Absolutely pure visualization of sounds he was making. Only if Alva Noto didn't look like he needs to pee - some people really have funny dance moves.



 I cleared my mind, felt alive for awhile... I highly recommend to get your asses out of the house and go to feel some subwoofers. For a happier world.

Back To School

What a cliché to write that three words. I mean, if you follow some other blogs, you might have seen it for whole September. Sorry for that, next time I'll try to be more original...

Anyway it's true and I'm back in the process. You know, getting up early, going to sleep late, working for school, thinking of some ideas. Pretty exhausting, that's for sure. I have feeling like I haven't slept in a quite while. Of course I did. It's just that my body is not used to it.

Even I was expecting some kind of introduction, we were thrown to the system pretty quickly, started with figural drawing which I wanted to show you but I won't, since it didn't ended up well. The other things I could show you are still not done, except cleaning up the studio so.. you will have to wait...
Moment of honesty, I'm super excited about it...

YAY...




If you expected usual pics quality, well forget about it... It's a cell

Have a great day readers

The Gift

In our lives we have to deal with situations. Sometimes, they are pleasant and sometimes they are not. But they both have something common - they gives us a lesson. Last couple weeks I had to deal with both cases and believe me I'm glad I have a day off and I can just write...


The pleasant part is, that I have my man much closer than over the ocean. I was a little busy showing him my country and being rude to him (mostly in the mall and I apologize for that) but now he went to travel and I'm in the mood for doing something. 


Well Tereza, stop writing personally and tell what you want to tell...


My dearest gave me a gift. It's not just a gift to me, it's THE GIFT. If you have read previous posts, you might noticed, I've been applying for art school in Prague and yes, I wrote about it a lot. Anyway I found that the main artist in the studio, leading professor of the studio wrote a book. Well not novel or anything, it's just cut of his work, with opinions of other people in the art field and my dad promised me to give me this book if I'll be accepted. Well I was, but my dad is going through the hard times now so I didn't even want to remind him, he promised that. Well it's an expensive book and as a reward for being student again I'll go to Canada for a summer, got another experience. Anyway when I came home after weekend, I found a wrapped gift on my bed and go figure, it was The Book.
Something I really really wanted for a long time. First of all it's important for me to read about work of my professor soon to be, don't you think? Second it's pretty well made book with beautiful prints and third - the cover is heat sensitive, so when you hold it for a longer, you can see your hand printed on it. 
You have no idea how happy it made me, silly I know.



Well I took some pictures, so I can at least partly share with you guys, but some pictures are crappy, it's getting darker outside...

I admit I've been playing only with a cover for two hours...
