Wieder sehr viel später. Engmaschigeres Pendeln zwischen Fixpunkten. Sanfte Hügel, Bach, Katze unter der Esche, und Gänse, die längst wieder zurück in den Stall getrieben wurden, für die Nacht. Das Dorf ein Sammelsurium von Lichtpunkten, umfasst von den Farben immer spätsommerlicherer Felder, aus denen fli... notes.z428.eu https://notes.z428.eu/2024/08/02/wieder-sehr-viel.html

Somewhere near 8pm. That white wine and quiche and there's sun after all that rain and suddenly aspects of the week start to hide. For a while. (Too: Wondering what it takes to get hands and piano in sync again. Challenges challenge.)

Early evening. Out there again. The sun that returns for a short while. // 📷 366skies

4pm. Cautiously moving forth, in indecisive weather. Watching reflections of breaking clouds on wet sidewalks and in the chrome parts of an old car. Having gone through most of the week, trying to come to a satisfying conclusion and yet wondering whether this should be postponed. For now, maybe breathing t... notes.z428.eu https://notes.z428.eu/2024/08/02/pm-cautiously-moving.html

Gespräche flohen, Regen blieb, nur die Intensität variiert. In den lichteren Momenten fliehen dunkelgraue Schemen zwischen den Dächern des Viertels und dem dichten, von Horizont zu Horizont spannenden Weiß. Räder auf nassen Straßen, weniger als sonst, leiser als sonst. Kurzer Wechsel der Räume, getrennte V... notes.z428.eu https://notes.z428.eu/2024/08/02/gesprche-flohen-regen.html

9am and on. Fixing technology by human interaction. A lot of pieces seem slightly off-place but only if one doesn't grasp the full, big picture. Which, in turns, moves other aspects into focus, and overally, leaves the feeling of a huge, slightly intimidating bunch of bells and whistles to a good degree ti... notes.z428.eu https://notes.z428.eu/2024/08/02/am-and-on.html

Früh im Freitag, Heimbüro, lautes Grau hinter allen Fenstern. Irgendwann mit der Nacht kam der Regen, kam, um zu bleiben. Buntes, intensives Rauschen übertönt alle Geräusche des Viertels, Tropfen rinnen in Bäche in Flüsse über die Fenster, um durch alten Rinnen und Rohren zu verschwinden. Ein feiner, nasse... notes.z428.eu https://notes.z428.eu/2024/08/02/frh-im-freitag.html

10pm and on. Burning the late oil, even though not close to midnight yet. Hunting moths that feel enticed by the bright white screen. There's a party going on behind that balcony just across the street, and even though people don't seem to need light, there's at least a dozen of voices and three different ... notes.z428.eu https://notes.z428.eu/2024/08/01/215816.html

(Noch mehr Zeit im Leerlauf. Der Supermarkt des geringsten Misstrauens weist neue Auszubildende ein, während der Stoßzeit. Anwohner tragen es mit Fassung, die späten Pendler hinter den vollen Körben sind deutlich genervter. Bei schweren Dingen unterstützt man sich, ein junger Mann dankt in Gebärdensprache,... notes.z428.eu https://notes.z428.eu/2024/08/01/noch-mehr-zeit.html

Afternoon. The heat, still prevailing. Rerouting oneself to stay clear of too much light. // 📷 366skies

4pm and on. Collecting weird misbehaviours of systems again. Still to figure out whether technical issues, design flaws or badly documented features. And then, as always: Drilling holes through components, once learnt that actual errors are swallowed somewhere in layers of abstractions. The glory of accumu... notes.z428.eu https://notes.z428.eu/2024/08/01/pm-and-on.html

(Too, slightly off whichever topic belongs here: As a tech guy, I've then and now experienced personal conflicts of attitude and opinion in the global social effect my business has and the price society might pay for that. But it has never been as difficult and inconvenient as it is by now in the age of ge... notes.z428.eu https://notes.z428.eu/2024/08/01/too-slightly-off.html

Gen Mittag zieht das Ordnungsamt wieder um den Block, fotografiert Autos und lässt Raum für die üblichen merkwürdigen Diskussionen. Eine sehr alte Frau schiebt den Rollstuhl mit ihrem noch älteren Mann durch ein dunkles Treppenhaus, und die Gedanken über Großstadt, Alter, Wohnraum, Lebenswege drängen wiede... notes.z428.eu https://notes.z428.eu/2024/08/01/gen-mittag-zieht.html

10am and on. Still yawning, once in a while. Trying to lead a communication by speaking out loud, just to notice the colleague this message is addressed to actually stayed in home office today. So much for attention span. Second half of the week again and timespans feel to be continuously shrinking.

Tangerine Dream. Music to work to. Music that has been around like half an eternity.

(Hallo August.) Regen trieben durch die Nacht, hörbar, laut genug, kurz den Strom der Bilder zu unterbrechen, und doch schwach genug, den Morgen nur noch feuchter, aber nicht kühler werden zu lassen. Trübes Zwielicht über dem Horizont. Leere, baumlose Passagen quer durch die Fassadenvorstellungen visionslo... notes.z428.eu https://notes.z428.eu/2024/08/01/hallo-august-regen.html

Closing in on 11pm. Letting todays music fade, closing these open files. Mentally collecting half-written sheets, careful to not wipe the ideas that still feel like needing to dry before being somewhat permanent. A day of juggling many different interwoven and partially conflicting tasks, a day of feeling ... notes.z428.eu https://notes.z428.eu/2024/07/31/closing-in-on.html

(Weiterziehen, die Sonne hinter sich zurücklassen. Fliegende Abendstadt gerade am Rande der Wahrnehmung. Hunde in den Flusswiesen, vereinzelte Picknicks, irgendwo spielt Musik, irgendwo blitzt eine Kamera. Ein Dampfer, behäbig den glatten Spiegel der Elbe schneidend auf dem Weg flußaufwärts. Im eigenen Vie... notes.z428.eu https://notes.z428.eu/2024/07/31/weiterziehen-die-sonne.html

Somewhere later the day. Not moving, staring up, feeling and perceiving the surroundings without real interaction. There may be days like these too. // 📷 366skies
