Hallo Steemerinos,
This is a story about how a lot of fortunate meetings can lead you unpredictable ways. You can find the piece of art I created during this adventure also on Steemit:
Part I: https://steemit.com/journey/@yoganarchista/steemit-do-you-enjoy-my-writing
The whole thing started with a facebook-post I read in the New-in-Berlin facebook group. A guy who has become a friend meanwhile asked if anyone wanted to meet for the Pete Doherty concert that night. I didn't have any other plans and I have always treasured Pete Dohertys poetry and music so I spontaniously decided to go.
After the show which was very nice but ended earlier because the audience jumped on stage to dance there I stayed to have a splif and a drink. Since the guy I met through facebook was already gone I offered the joint to one guy that was passing by.
He was super happy to have a smoke and we started to chat. He told me he was a music manager working for MLK, a huge concert agency in Germany and that in exchange for rolling another J he would take me to any concert I wanted. Now this sounded a bit strange at first but his whole way was so authentic with the right dosis of crazyness that eventhough I thought he might be telling the truth about being a musik manager I would never go to any concert with him. I also told him about my writing and my other artworks and we exchanged contacts.
What happend next I would have never tought to happen. There was a 30 Seconds to Mars concert in Berlin and this crazy dude wrote my name as well as the name of my best friend who was visiting me in Berlin on the guest list. We decided to invite him to a Jazz club the same week and met him at another concert in another town. It was an exciting time for me because after half a year living in Berlin and quitting my studies of architecture I finally got to know a bit of the town and its culture, which is very beautiful and rebellious by the way. Then on the phone I got introduced to the artist mücke32. He said that he needed some kind of text for the opening of his vernissage CHRONOVISOR 2084 in the parliament of Romania in Bucharest at the 21.3.2014(spring equinox). We talked for hours and found that the subjects I'm was writing about and his art could match very well. In two days I wrote the 20 minutes play, another two days later it was recorded and another three days later I was on the plane to Bucharest.
For seven days I stayed at a 4* Hotel right in front of the parliament and helped preparing the exhibitions by the artist mücke32. The rehearsals for our performance we did late night from 3 to 6 and the next day he got up at 8 in the next morning to prepare the pentagram shaped easels for his exhibtions. I was lucky to sleep a little longer and helped preparing some texts for his exhibitions. The more days passed the more decitions had to be made. Where to play it, how to perform the text and then all the different costumes we tryed...
This was the final look of the "CHRONORVISOR 2084" performance. Everything was organzied very fast by some bighearted people from Bucharest and the two of us.

After the performance I was very happy that cigarette smokeing was allowed inside the parliament building because doing all this and presenting my writing to this kind of audience was a real vulcano of emotions to me.
I hope you like my story. Some of the pictures may not have such good quality because I made them with my mobile but I think they transfere the story pretty good. What do you think?
Lots of Love to all of you <3
