Kristian10pm and not much further. Filing the weekend, storing pictures of forest and meadows and rivers, for whichever later moment might care. Calls and conversations echoing in an inner realm still veiled by both ones own conflicts and worries and pondering the global insignificance of both. Watching the candles burn bright, watching other rooms across the street go dark one by one. Just hours from tomorrow. Have a calm night wherever you are.📷 lost-in-moments<a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=outerworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#outerworld</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=concrete+city" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#concrete city</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=half+awake+half+asleep" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#half awake half asleep</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=the+night+in+things" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#the night in things</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=lost+in+moments" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lost in moments</a>

Kristian10pm. Slow stop. A different physical kind of exhaustion. Piano through headphones, before the stars move by and evening completely fades. A late Sunday dinner still taking place across the street, huge candles on a huge table and the flickering of the shadows grows into stories and movies of its own. Spending a few odd moments lip syncing random lines of imaginary conversations. And then turning away, in a sudden feeling of guilt and shame, as if being an uninvited guest in an intimate environment. Retreat. Rinsing away the hours. Embracing sleep again.

Kristian (inactive/moved)10pm and on again. A deep breath a deep sigh and quietly noticing moon's still above the roofs, on her solitary path, slow and distanced. Opening windows out of an impulse. Immediately feeling a push of cold air, the scent of winter, of frost and snow and coal fires like in these years that still bear childhood memories. Trying to stay clear of sinking into past depths, flirting with the stars instead. No answers, either. But at least a random twinkle, then and now, and maybe that's about as good as it gets. Have a peaceful night wherever you are.📷 a-different-void<a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=a+different+void" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#a different void</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=outerworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#outerworld</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=concrete+city" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#concrete city</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=half+awake+half+asleep" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#half awake half asleep</a>

Kristian (inactive/moved)Finally, 10pm and slowing down. Putting down headphones, as if they had turned too heavy to wear all of a sudden. Music still playing but into an earless void, much more like a memory and maybe that suits well the choice of tracks tonight. With the month moving on, last Christmas lights finally disappeared from the windows and balconies over there, rendering rooms and facades darker again. And even while the days are gradually longer again, there's still so much light vs dark in these moods right now. Standing below backyard trees, breathing winter while mentally yearning for all kinds of possible springs.

Kristian (inactive/moved)10pm and on. Late lights early dreams. Everything left behind of that path morning to dusk seems hiding behind a wall of blur. Surrounded by trees and facades and bushes and abandoned structures in between. Too: The loud voices of pedestrians echoing in the street, entering, leaving the pub, taking their beer and their bags and all their burdens home. And the comforting feeling of being reasonably far, invisible and separated from these aspects. Keeping as much silence around as possible, every day anew. Have a peaceful night wherever you are.📷 lost-in-moments<a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=outerworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#outerworld</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=lost+in+moments" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lost in moments</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=concrete+city" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#concrete city</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=half+awake+half+asleep" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#half awake half asleep</a>

Kristian (inactive/moved)10pm and on. Things to deal with later that day: Digital services asking whether one's actually a human being. Unsure how to respond. The model has no real idea either, but apparently most people just confirmed and went on. Others end up wondering most elementary identity and belonging again being confronted with those unsettling questions. (Closing the corresponding windows. Opening the actual one, to catch some air and a glimpse of whatever winter it is right now. Flickering pub lights, music reduced to bass lines, and the ever-present distant hum that feels soothing much more than intimidating at this hour. Have a peaceful night wherever you are.)<a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=outerworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#outerworld</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=concrete+city" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#concrete city</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=later+that+day+later+that+night" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#later that day later that night</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=half+awake+half+asleep" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#half awake half asleep</a>

Kristian (inactive/moved)10pm and on. The late hours to follow a slow afternoon. Always sundays, like looking ahead briefly, eyeing what lies behind the next dusk and dawn. Knowing the specialties of the hours in between. The weird paths of these dreams to start randomly and be gone again in early morning. Everything washed into consciousness once more before a new week returns to its familiar rhythm. Somewhere along the backyard, some TV station is spreading news again. A few stars blinking above silent roofs. Air's a bit cooler, has a soft scent of fir trees, wet meadows and a river. Breathing, inhaling. And focussing on senses and perception for a moment, trying not to process, to evaluate. A challenging exercise, again and again. Sleep well and calm dreams everyone, no matter where you are.<a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=outerworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#outerworld</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=concrete+city" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#concrete city</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=later+that+day+later+that+night" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#later that day later that night</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=half+awake+half+asleep" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#half awake half asleep</a>

Kristian (inactive/moved)Way beyond 22pm. Accepting to have slowed down a while ago. Emptied the glass again, taking quality time standing in the backdoor frame, briefly staring out into the dark. Grasping a lot of different sounds at once and failing to identify where they belong and what is causing them, in most cases. Except for the constant, wake flow of the creek on its way to the river, maybe. Reflecting on another week passing by, and the ages that seem to have found place in it. Processing some, ignoring others for now. And trying to set a stage for short-term dreams worth being dreamt, heading for the morning again.

Kristian (inactive/moved)Much later again. Resuming the hours and wondering whether things of relevance went unaddressed. Probably so, very much. But at the same time pondering boundaries, capabilities and honouring the relation of both. In between heat and cold, unsatisfied with both yet unable to keep a stable state in between. Windows closed again. All kinds of. Trying to grant attention to the many random stories unfolding on sidewalk and crossroad below, in the pale neon blue of the pub and the headlights of a parked car. Yet slowly turning incoherent, trains of thought taking odd turns, world slowly slipping into its hiding again. Yawning. Covering eyes with hands, for a second, to feel beyond the visible. Entering a halting state. Have a soothing night wherever you are.📷 random-stories<a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=random+stories" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#random stories</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=smartphonephotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#smartphonephotography</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=concrete+city" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#concrete city</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=later+that+day+later+that+night" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#later that day later that night</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=half+awake+half+asleep" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#half awake half asleep</a>

Kristian (inactive/moved)Some steps further. The sound of distant trains and slow jazz nearby. A car parking, doors opened, closed. Dishes placed on a cupboard, below. And always a ringing phone, somewhere. Noticing quite late the absence of stars tonite, and the cold that made it into the rooms again. Noticing ones fingers drawing patterns in the dust on the windowsill, unconsciously, but hesitating to make sense of what's to be seen there. It's late enough, vague enough already, anyway.

Kristian (inactive/moved)Wieder deutlich später. Erneut verhallt der Tag, nimmt das Wochenende mit sich und lässt den Ausblick auf unruhigen Schlaf und wackelige Träume zurück. Stoßlüften, den Winter empfangen, der wieder spürbarer wird, nachdem die Wärme der sonnigen Stunden in das Himmelsschwarz geflohen ist. Gegenüber flackern noch die Kerzen auf dem Küchentisch, werfen Schatten auf vage erkennbare Gesichter. Eine Etage weiter oben wird gekocht und am Fenster geraucht, verschiedene Dämpfe treiben die Straße entlang und verlieren sich irgendwo hinter der Kreuzung. Eigenes Licht verbergen. Eigene Stimme für jetzt zurücknehmen. Die Gedanken kurz sich selbst überlassen, bevor die Zeit weiterschreitet.

Kristian (inactive/moved)Dann bleibt nur noch, die Woche zusammenzufalten und abzuheften. Mit verstärkten Löchern und ganz vorsichtig, als könnte das Stückwerk bei der kleinsten falschen Berührung zu Fetzen und Staub zerfallen. Die verschiedenen Stränge von Handlungen und Untätigkeiten zusammenführen, eher zur eigenen Unterhaltung. Knoten und Netze versuchen, und letztlich in einem Knäuel enden, der in der Schublade verschwindet. Gewohnte Muster zu dieser Zeit des Tages, Warten auf das nächste Zeitzeichen oder ein neues Sternbild oder etwas Schlaf, was auch immer früher eintritt.

Kristian (inactive/moved)Und dann fahren die Maschinen in den Ruhezustand. Alle. Die inneren Zahnräder drehen sich ein wenig langsamer, und nur allzu oft bleiben mechanische Analogien, wenn bessere Vergleiche fehlen. Hinter geschlossenen Augen laufen die Filme weiter, aber die Konturen der Bilder werden weicher. Möglicherweise ist allein das schon gut genug, um den Weg in den Morgen zu finden.

Kristian (inactive/moved)Finally: Summing up. Filing a bunch of notes collected along a rather short part of the path. Cleaning workspaces, closing connections, leaving even a digital environment behind in a way to be as little disturbing as possible when touching things again. Across the street, TV screens still pour illusions and nightmares into these small confined spaces of city appartments. Past 10pm. A laptop being closed. A bottle of red wine being carefully shelved. Still, a flickering candle. And not much more left for now to handle. Have a slow night wherever you are.📷 a-different-void<a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=outerworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#outerworld</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=concrete+city" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#concrete city</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=a+different+void" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#a different void</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=later+that+day+later+that+night" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#later that day later that night</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=smartphonephotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#smartphonephotography</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=half+awake+half+asleep" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#half awake half asleep</a>

Kristian (inactive/moved)10pm and not much further. Various kinds of paperwork, various styles of music floating through headphones, the darkness of the facades across the street and the dim lights of a city sky under heavy clouds. Rain getting stronger again, leaving dancing spots on the sidewalk, melting and washing away the very last remains of grey snow. Sound of neighbours on the stairs, a keychain falling down, someone using strong words but at least in a bearable volume. And sleep lurking in between everything today.

Kristian (inactive/moved)Finally, day concludes just the way it started: Stumbling into maintenance tasks. Small chores. The kind of things that need to be done to not completely be at odds with oneself and reality in the morning. Rooms a bit more empty now, a bit less light, different light, and an open window an open city right in front of weary eyes. Silver lines in the skies hinting moon and for a second, her pale shine seem just what it needs to draw softness into the dreams to come.

Kristian (inactive/moved)Sehr viel später: Einigermaßen angekommen. Verharren an der Hintertür, wie so häufig. Die Augen verlieren sich im Dunkel, Abend ist erfüllt mit schwer deutbaren Geräuschen zwischen Wiesen, Büschen, Bäumen und den Gebäuden, die man um diese Zeit allenfalls erahnen kann. Und vielleicht ist es dieses Dunkel des Moments, dieses Muster aus altgewohnten, bildlosen Klängen, das eine kurze Zeit die Milde geistiger Leere erlaubt, zwischen Wochenabschnitten und außerhalb des Taktes, fern der Stadt. (Have a calm night wherever you are.)📷 lost-in-moments<a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=outerworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#outerworld</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=later+that+day+later+that+night" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#later that day later that night</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=the+village+and+the+hills" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#the village and the hills</a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=half+awake+half+asleep" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#half awake half asleep</a>

Kristian (inactive/moved)Schließlich: Stunden ablegen. Falten und Knitter vorsichtig ausstreichen, hoffend, dass das feine, bunte Schimmern noch irgendwie erhalten bleibt für ein paar Augenblicke im schwindenden Licht. Sortieren, nach zufälligen Regeln, ebenso routiniert und akribisch wie gedankenverloren und abwesend. Linienmaschinen unsichtbar zwischen verhangenem Firmament und kalter Endlosigkeit, nur das Singen der Triebwerke erzählt dem am Boden Gebliebenen von unerahnten Routen und den Welten, die sie verbinden. Nebenan schließt die Balkontür, Tabakrauch zieht flusswärts, begleitet von einem trockenen Husten. Späte Glocken, Fernverkehr hinter den Blöcken, ein uralter Klingelton. Stille der Höfe, und wer kann, sucht den Schlaf.

Kristian (inactive/moved)10pm and a few more steps. As always. Somewhere in between calm and stirred up. Also as always. Changing music, randomly, to finally opt for whichever silence a city has to offer. No new storm yet. But a pedestrian whistling on his way home, the sound of bottles on stone near the pub, the sound of a messenger ringing doorbells carrying a bulky bag of food, and the subliminal noise of all the breaths and sighs and turning pages of books and removing clothes for sleep and water of showers flowing down old rusty pipes combined. Ambiance, dissonant. In between different tales of today.

Kristian (inactive/moved)Closing in on 10pm, not much further. At least talking intentions. Usual flow: Well prepared, less well prepared, unsorted. Anxious. Focussing on breath, on the sounds emanating from weather and city and backyards, on that small silent void some inches above ones own head that sometimes feels almost like a hideout from oneself. Fans running louder again. Neighbours lose each other in what feels like a fight same as pointless as passionate, and maybe there's rest once this energy has been burnt.
