Former means of transport in the Verkehrsmuseum in Nürnberg: Goggomobil Coupé, 1960s & E 19 locomotive, 1940

Modern means of transport: Anonymous, crowded regional train from Nürnberg to München. No seats available = 2 hours for one drawing + stiff legs

Mitfahrgelegenheit

Driving home in a battered old VW bus. I met Vanessa, the driver and another girl, Tracy, through an online car pooling comunity that arranges cheap lifts. Though the heating didn´t work and the interior fitting was coming apart, it was much nicer than taking the train.

Sternkino

The neighbourhood´s cinema next door was demolished this summer. It was a former riding stable that was converted into a cinema in the 1950s. I used to go to sleep with the noisy chatter of people emerging from the movies at night, a very comforting sound.
Now it´s all to quiet.
The new owners of the lot want to build two large and exceedingly ugly appartment buildings. People are hoping that the investors won´t suceed with their plans and have filed a complaint with the board of works, so for now all work on the area is stalled and left in this state.

i found this sketch from february- AYM refers to the jazz band playing in the background, called angry young men. At SchonSchön bar/club, Mainz. These three were engaged in a lively discussion, and i sipped my drink and drew.

His limbs stopped flailing and he looked at me, as if he knew i was drawing him.
Gave the drawing to his parents as a present.
