Visuelles Denken. FluxFM | Das FluxFM-Gästebuch. “Die Radiostation des Berliner Senders FluxFM bietet Künstlern eine wunderbare Atmosphäre, um sich kreativ auszuleben!” – so lautete unlängst die Schlagzeile der New York Times. Okay, okay, zugegeben: davon träumen wir nur, aber ein Blick in unser Gästebuch lässt vermuten, dass sich unsere prominenten Gäste immerhin wohl und kreativ-inspiriert fühlen, während sie ihren Wartekaffee trinken. Wir wollen euch die kleinen Kunstwerke und FluxFM-Liebeserklärungen aus unserem Papier-Gästebuch nicht vorenthalten.

Von A wie And you will know us by the trail of dead bis F wie Fettes Brot: Von G wie Girls in Hawaii bis P wie Prag: Von R wie Robert DeLong bis Y wie Yeasayer (und natürlich ganz viele “The Bands”):

Dez’Mon Omega Fair. You seem like a natural New Yorker. How long have you called this city home? I’m a deep, deep Southern boy, originally from Orangeburg, South Carolina. I moved to New York about four years ago. I’m officially in my fifth year. You were an art student before you moved, is that right? Yes. What was your experience as an art student like? What drew you to painting? Would you say you have an artistic process?

What would you say defines your style? Who are some of your favorite artists? How long have you lived here in this space? There’s so much to look at. You display clothing as art. Have people called you a hipster? As for clichés, I’m not sure what is and what isn’t a cliché. What do you love about living in Bushwick? What role does peace and quiet play in your work? What are your favorite restaurants or shops in Bushwick? How do you get around the city? Do you see yourself staying in New York? What have you been working on most recently? What do you think about when you sit and stare? DeMilked - Design Milking Magazine. Erik Johansson - Electric Guitar.
