Kristian<p>Considerably later, Sunday pale and thin. The silent hideout and its dark windows. The late sounds of loud and unsettling music between here and the park. A neighbour being walked around by his dog. Green scooter lights, a blinking car and a flickering chandelier in a living room just across. Still, some brightness of a waning dusk above black roofs. Enough substance to shape dreams of. Have a soothing night wherever you are.</p><p><a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=outerworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>outerworld</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=concrete+city" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>concrete city</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=later+that+day+later+that+night" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>later that day later that night</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=always+in+between" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>always in between</span></a></p>
Kristian<p>Halfway through the morning already. Strong, clear colours: Blue, green. The air feels fresh and young, birds in the backyard are singing louder than on other days it seems. Sunday mood, in between wanting to move on and just savouring the moment.</p><p><a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=outerworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>outerworld</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=sundays" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sundays</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=concrete+city" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>concrete city</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=always+in+between" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>always in between</span></a></p>
Kristian<p>Much later. The ability of senses to collect vast loads of input. And the inability of the brain to process these in full, let alone mind and soul. Calming down, dizzy and nervous in many ways. Waiting for dreams to settle and remake stories. Have a soft night wherever you are.</p><p><a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=outerworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>outerworld</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=concrete+city" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>concrete city</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=later+that+day+later+that+night" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>later that day later that night</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=always+in+between" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>always in between</span></a></p>
Kristian<p>Later the evening. Just a week ahead, back here again, in the frame of a door facing soft lightlessness of calm nature. More water in the creek, a little more sound to be heard in the new leaves of the trees, and music, way more distant than in a passing city day. Gambling with thoughts, at this point everything is allowed to be unsorted and random. Have a calm night wherever you are.</p><p><a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=outerworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>outerworld</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=the+village+and+the+hills" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>the village and the hills</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=half+awake+half+asleep" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>half awake half asleep</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=always+in+between" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>always in between</span></a></p>
Kristian<p>4pm and on. On the road. Noticing clouds veiling the sun, or sun piercing through clouds, not sure which way things are heading and who's been there first. Also: The never-changing mood of roadside attractions. Details that usually go unseen. Details that form a world of its own. Including, but not limited to dry thistles. Broken bottles. Stones.</p><p><a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=outerworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>outerworld</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=concrete+city" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>concrete city</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=always+in+between" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>always in between</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=moving+on+moving+fast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>moving on moving fast</span></a></p>
Kristian<p>A bit later, measured time differing from perceived time again. Last light of this day fading into the Western horizon, a few stars flickering to claim a velvet sky. Stretching on a hard floor. Humming with the late traffic. Different strategies to tackle tensions, few of them actually work. Have a quiet night wherever you are.</p><p><a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=outerworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>outerworld</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=concrete+city" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>concrete city</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=later+that+day+later+that+night" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>later that day later that night</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=always+in+between" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>always in between</span></a></p>
Kristian<p>Closing in on 10am. Moving on again. A bag of memories and laundry in the trunk. A load of images and topics on the mind. Trying to be as here as now permits it. The road winding, a concrete trail. Quiet are the forests.</p><p><a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=outerworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>outerworld</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=the+village+and+the+hills" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>the village and the hills</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=always+in+between" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>always in between</span></a></p>
Kristian<p>(Nachmittag. An der Grenze zur Dämmerung: Doch noch eine Idee von Sonne, Amselduett und erster längerer Kontakt mit der Außenwelt. Blinzeln im Zwielicht. Gänsehaut. Nicht müde, aber auch nicht richtig wach.)</p><p><a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=outerworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>outerworld</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=the+village+and+the+hills" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>the village and the hills</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=always+in+between" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>always in between</span></a></p>
Kristian<p>Very much later again. Moths dancing around the small lantern. Backdoor near the creek, attentive and waiting for any movements and noises but inhabitants of these hours are good at keeping unseen, unheard, unnoticed. This day started passed ended a bit more silent than others. Week seems far, as does the city. Weary mind, troubled thoughts. Have a calm night wherever you are.</p><p><a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=outerworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>outerworld</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=the+village+and+the+hills" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>the village and the hills</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=later+that+evening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>later that evening</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=always+in+between" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>always in between</span></a></p>
Kristian<p>9am and on, roadside mood. Engine sounds, vibrations, a feeling of guilt as well as of lack of choices. In between valleys and hills and fields, mountains already ahead. No opinions yet on the light this day decides to have.</p><p><a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=outerworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>outerworld</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=travel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>travel</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=always+in+between" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>always in between</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=the+village+and+the+hills" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>the village and the hills</span></a></p>
Kristian<p>Einige Stunden weiter, Mittag und Schritte durch ein kühles Treppenhaus, bevor man eintaucht in gleißende Sonne und die ganze Wärme des Tages. Auf dem Gehweg stehen wieder Kunststoffmöbel und die großen Schirme, deren Farbe in vielen Sommern geflohen ist; eine Gruppe lauter Touristen bestellt das, was sie als ortsübliches Bier erachtet, und man behält gewisse Fragen für sich. Unterhaltung im Blumenladen, unvorsichtige Griffe der jungen Frau in der Auslage, Dinge kommen ins Rutschen und plötzlich steht der halbe Boden unter Wasser. Lauf auf Zehenspitzen. Ordnung schaffen. Und dann zurück in den Takt des Mittwochs. Zu schnell, zu viel, aber zumindest wach.</p><p><a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=outerworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>outerworld</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=concrete+city" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>concrete city</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=home+office+hours" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>home office hours</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=where+we+do+what+we+do" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>where we do what we do</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=always+in+between" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>always in between</span></a></p>
Kristian<p>(Much later, just barely awake. Different places different routines and feeling the touch of the outer world on the backdoor leading into garden and meadows. There are mouses in the ivy covering the floor near that old barn. There's the sound the creek, less strong today. There's distant whispering, random laughter of village teenagers, hiding in the bus stop drinking and smoking and there are the echoes of stories so old it's hard to even tell whether they have really happened. Have a calm night wherever you are.)</p><p><a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=outerworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>outerworld</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=the+village+and+the+hills" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>the village and the hills</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=always+in+between" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>always in between</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=half+awake+half+asleep" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>half awake half asleep</span></a></p>
Kristian<p>10pm and on. Listening to the darkness, breathing its silence. Pub is closing doors again, leaving a bunch of late souls to find their ways home. Some chords, played somewhere next door, presumably a violin, advanced skills. Wanting to chime in on the piano but deciding against this, not to disturb someone elses dreaming. Staring into dim skies instead, as if to make stars appear this way. Not much luck, still trying. Have a light night wherever you are!</p><p><a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=outerworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>outerworld</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=concrete+city" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>concrete city</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=later+that+day" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>later that day</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=always+in+between" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>always in between</span></a></p>
Kristian<p>Mit dem inneren Wind: Terminverschiebungen, Absagen von außerhalb und das Befüllen großer Listen mit bunten Symbolen. Unten lärmt die Baustelle, der Hausmeister und seine Adjutanten zerren riesige leere Kartons aus dem Innenhof zum Müllplatz. Im Wohnzimmer gegenüber werden raumhohe Fotos an den Wänden befestigt, während der Boden noch unter einem Chaos aus Werkzeugen und Verpackungsmüll verschwindet. Kurz nach der Mittagsstunde. Träge Wolken an blassblauem Himmel und einige davon scheinen einander zu jagen. Noch kein eigener Rhythmus, der überzeugen könnte.</p><p><a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=outerworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>outerworld</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=concrete+city" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>concrete city</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=office+hours" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>office hours</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=always+in+between" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>always in between</span></a></p>
Kristian<p>Um- und Irrwege entlang der Strecke. Baustellen, Sackgassen, Bordsteine. Immer wieder ein kalter Wind, der um die Ecken rennt und durch die zu dünne Kleidung sticht. Bahnen rumpeln durch den Morgen, klingeln unvorsichtige Passanten an. Die Verkäuferin in der Bäckerei hängt eine bunte Fahne über die Tür, stilisierte Eistüte auf buntem Untergrund, und vielleicht klingt da genau jener Optimismus an, den ein Montag benötigt, um zu sich zu finden.</p><p><a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=outerworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>outerworld</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=concrete+city" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>concrete city</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=office+hours" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>office hours</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=always+in+between" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>always in between</span></a></p>
Kristian<p>10pm. Off and on or vice versa. A stale drink in a glass too small. Living room windows opened wide, a few piano chords to flood into the vivid dark. Minor scales and a few colourful tones in between, a bus taking the youth of the neighbourhood to where their evening is going to unfold, and water from an old shower does its best to rinse a dense day off the skin. Closing todays chapter, a few words left but not convincing or needed. A willing mind a tired mind. Have a calm night wherever you are.</p><p><a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=outerworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>outerworld</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=concrete+city" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>concrete city</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=later+that+day+later+that+night" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>later that day later that night</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=always+in+between" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>always in between</span></a></p>
Kristian<p>Sommersonne Winterschatten und Holzbiene unter dem Schirm. Spuren im Beet und auf der Kamera: Marder, Waschbär, Fuchs. Immer noch keine Fliederblüten. Zu müde für bewusstes Treiben, zu sehr im Schwung noch für echte Ruhe. Weitertreiben, durch den Feierabend und seine Bilder. Beiseite treten, rüde Worte ignorieren. Früh wie abends.</p><p><a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=outerworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>outerworld</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=concrete+city" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>concrete city</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=elsewhere" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>elsewhere</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=always+in+between" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>always in between</span></a></p>
Kristian<p>10pm and on. The sleepiness of body and soul. Processing loop suspended for a moment, inputs collected yet unaddressed. Just noticing, not responding that much anymore. Sober and dizzy, watching invisible clouds veil any star that would be willing to dare and take its way onto these skies. Listening to the collective breath of those out there too tired to wake yet unwilling to already sleep, to let go of now. A shapeless songline. Have a quiet night wherever you are.</p><p><a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=outerworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>outerworld</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=concrete+city" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>concrete city</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=later+that+day+later+that+night" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>later that day later that night</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=always+in+between" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>always in between</span></a></p>
Kristian<p>Close to 3pm, out there. Intermediate stops, changing cities again. Routes way too well known to consciously notice all details along the road. And still always very much resonating with the mood of places to pass by. The melody of this day. Things behind the curtains rarely changed here.</p><p><a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=outerworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>outerworld</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=always+in+between" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>always in between</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=travel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>travel</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=the+roads+and+the+hills" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>the roads and the hills</span></a></p>
Kristian<p>Schwerer Verkehr auf der Zubringerstrecke. Schrittgeschwindigkeit, abgelebte Betonwelt. An der Bushaltestelle sitzen zwei grimmige Herren links und rechts eines Bierkastens, an dem ein pinkfarbener Luftballon mit einer großen weißen 40 flattert. Unwirkliche Farben in einem fortgesetzt grauen Augenblick.</p><p><a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=outerworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>outerworld</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=travel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>travel</span></a> <a href="https://loma.ml/search?tag=always+in+between" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>always in between</span></a></p>
