Sound of Silence

Did you miss me? Not really. Internet offers so many sources of stupidities that one less is not changing much. I was really busy lately and I thought I would be dry concerning the city I still live in, Moscow. Nothing can surprise me anymore, nothing can upset me anymore, nothing can hurt me anymore...that's not true, more than ever this city is a punk circus, juggling between insanity and paradoxes. The world is upside down, Moscow is down upside. Nothing like others.

I did a lot of things during those last few months...few things actually. I've launched my first book 'Tranches de Mort' that you can order here http://www.amazon.fr/TRANCHES-MORT-VINCHON-Franck/dp/2748366689/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1316863597&sr=8-1 (all countries available), I've launched a free art magazine unleash.pdf (discover more info and the way to download here http://www.facebook.com/pages/unleashpdf/251156931590783), I've developed my art collective Ipeka http://ipekacollective.wordpress.com/ and we still developing some projects and, all that, was captured on radio over here http://moscouactu.blogs.courrierinternational.com/archive/2011/09/15/la-vie-a-moscou-vue-par-un-publicitaire-parisien.html . And I don't tell you everything because you won't believe me but I run some other activities as well.

Could I do all that without the enrgy of Moscow? Probably not. The least I could do is to come back to this blog and celebrate the punk life I'm still living.

Silence for the Kids

This place, Mayakovskaya, is famous to receive any type of manifestation. Of course, under high control from the police. Anyway, each time, a movement or an association wants to shout something to the government, everything is organized to let them do it in that place of 50m2. But since few months, a fence blocks the access to that place, officially for reperation but the antis are talking about a conspiracy to shut the mouths and live a peaceful end of the year. Just to make it nice, the Moscow city put on the fence some photos for a kids' association, just to make them swallow the bitter pill in a friendly way.

Business Trip

Few days of silence because of a business trip...sorry about that. These are my official apologies (mainly for guys actually). Nicely delivered by a russian citizen.
