Israeli Intellectuals how I love thee

Update marathon from last weekend continues.
After Williamsburg we were invited by Luke to go to a barbecue of some friends of his in Alphabet City.
Didn't know what was in store for me but it was an utterly wonderful experience. Painters, architects, film-makers. I had some of the most interesting conversations I've had in ages....about life, reality, perception, architecture, memory palaces...no holds barred...I felt I could speak about all that truly interested me and we all went straight into the thick of it. Wish there was more time...I'm sure I could've enjoyed amazing conversation with each of them one on one... Hope to get a few more pics from V and Luke. I only have these few I took.
The space was surreal...two buildings and a connecting courtyard...dusk decended and I wanted to capture some of the mood, the pics are grainy please forgive...but hey it felt like that in real life with all the barbecue smoke!


Up on a rickety scaffold to get a surreal darkview from above...aren't I a risk-taker;) yes there's a mannequin torso in the garden.


Beer, kabobs and hummus ohmY




one of my favorites...all the doorways looked so mysterious...maybe a mindstate?

Yoram is working on a documentary called Keepers of Eden.

We all went upstairs to watch it. He gave treated us to a blowgun demonstration (no volunteers)and we discussed issues of globalization and exploitation...so fascinating...I hated to have to leave!
