I saw it once in tacheles backyard some years ago, some bladerunnerlike
jewish warehouse in the street of liebeskind synagogue, oranienburger
strasse in berlin, josina had a sculpture there, and dont know anything
special, but there was/is a scene of eastern tape and radio freaks.....
Working with old equipment, arte povera. (Hendrix radio...)

Some residents art in tacheles didnt impress me much but it had some very 
bladerunner like views. I dont know if the owner has a title to do so,
a courts decision, that he can break users possession, but newspapers
and radio report, that they will be evicted this week, if they dont
agree in some compromise........

Who knows...., Piranesi comes to mind, Tacheles was very piranesiesque. Time,
Bomb, traces. Maybe they did let it in its old post ww2 state like they did 
with a villa at the rhine. Now times have changed, maybe I should try to 
catch a picture of that garden. Time, cleopatras palace under water,
a cloister in bretany, city lifes

Anyway, there was/is a ddr hoerspiel scene, there must be some discussion about
them, maybe in connection with the east berlin artists/colaborators scene
in Prenzlauer Berg. Beuys said something on it: Einige sind nur in der DDr
gut. I though, I understood it in the sense of a saying, but Some are good
(or were?) only in the GDR, what does it say??????

Btw, I am making an experiment with grassroot networking there, 
http://userpage.fu-berlin.de/~huette/prenzlnet.html Hoped to turn people on
on grassroot contexts, but they are mostly interested in tha lame worldwide
thing. The piranesi villa in bonn is next to the foreign office
