this could really use some pictures

i did this social experiment over the weekend where i left my phone in a bus for anybody to find, with all the calendar, contacts, messages, tons of photos of my life and a bunch of high-confidentiality corporate emails. it was great, i recommend it if you're into freaking out.

a couple of setbacks there, though. losing the beast meant i couldn't take pictures at the wine fair on saturday, which is the mother of suck. cos you think you'll remember all the wines down to the detail the next day but then you do tend to end up a bit tipsy (or shitfaced, loud and hilarious, if you're carey) you don't.

worse than that, though, i couldn't snap around in gothenburg yesterday. i was up there for research, and while i can't really explain the outcome of the trip in words i'll try to summarize what i can in the familiar format of the in/out list:

IN: pencils, trains, airports, simone de beauvoir, the environment, life, reading other people's email, okänd zon denim, sleeping with your windows open, charles dickens, foucault, muji, not having a driver's license, consistency.

OUT: films, flying, rammstein, closed spaces, traffic, baby talk, underarms, ice cream, saunas, consistency, puppies.

this list is near-exhaustive, absolutely true and fantastically ephemeral.

i forgot sun (out, with a caveat), shade (in), and revolving doors (in/out in one constant motion)
