While Athens is in an uproar over a series of murders of prominent Arab businessmen, Dimitris, a young thief, accidentally discovers the identity of the killer, a strange Greek- American woman who was born in Athens and bears the name of Olga Robards. The young man decides that he must get to know this woman at all costs and seeks the aid of the so-called “the Scientist”, a recluse and fugitive from the law who is considered a real authority on crime. They will both meet the killer who turns out to be a charismatic woman on the brink of death.

Marcel Duchamp’s Bicycle Wheel

In 1998 Ben Jakober and Yannick Vu collaborated on an obvious remake of Marcel Duchamp’s Roue de Bicyclette, his first “readymade” object. Duchamp combined a bicycle wheel, a fork and a stool to create a machine which served no purpose, subverting accepted norms of art. 

Dancing on Architecture

Dancing on Architecture

I think it was Frank Zappa – though others claim it was Laurie Anderson – who said in an interview that ‘writing on music is much like dancing on architecture’.
