Joachim Koester – The Barker Ranch !!

Snublede igen over noget interessant. Joachim Koester og hans fotoserie
“The Barker Ranch” - by Joachim Koester

The Barker Ranch is situated near the Paramount Mountains in a remote corner of Death Valley, California. Hard to access through the steep Goler Wash the desolate Ranch was the communal home of Charles Manson and his ”Family” for two years at the end of the sixties. From this location the “Family” roomed the surrounding desert in dune buggies. Like a scene out of Mad Max they would engage in a gradually more desperate hunt for ”the hole,” an entrance to a subterranean world that would serve as their shelter during the upcoming apocalypse or Helter-Skelter.
It is striking how the two locations that served as the “Manson Family’s” living quarters were embedded in frontier and filmic mythology. The Spahn Ranch (burned down in 1970) where the “Family” resided before the move to Death Valley was a ramshackle movie set for westerns (most of their meals were prepared and eaten in the former prison). Also the Barker Ranch was rich in filmic allusions. The Ranch was a classic hideout, a last stronghold in an area populated by prospectors, gold seekers, scientologists and ghosts towns. As for the actual film rumored to have been shoot during the Family’s stay at the Ranch most of it has mysteriously disappeared. Even 1,600 foot of Kenneth Angers infamous Lucifer Rising is most likely buried somewhere in the nearby desert. Family member Bobby Beausoleil, who played the role as Lucifer in the film, had fallout with Anger and drove away with the footage to the ranch.
The arrests and later sentencing of Charles Manson and five Family members for the gruesome murders of at least eight people, among these Roman Polanski’s wife Sharon Tate, were by many seen as the real deathblow to the hippie movement. Though the Manson family shared certain characteristics of the counterculture; the music, psychedelics, a vegetarian lifestyle and sexual permissiveness, the main inspiration for the group was the Bible and Scientology. This was a libertarian cult run amok, with far stronger ties to the violent American past than ever brought forth. The Family’s transgressions into hippie lure where amplified by the media and stirred a huge anti-counterculture campaign in the media. As the sixties came to an end these events, more than any, was seen as having a sobering effect on the emancipatory dreams within the counterculture.
The Barker Ranch today lies as a faint echo of the events that presided. My project is a series of 4 photographs and a text, an exploration of the dilapidated Ranch, which has been vacant since the Family lived there. I have documented the Barker Ranch as a slumbering site, a monument enmeshed in time, material traces of history as such, in a landscape heavily mythologised: all in all it is a “Western”.

Faldt over Albert Grøndahl.. og hans fantastiske fotos.. læs evt mere om Albert Grøndahl her Skrevet af Michael Jeppesen
“Han kan være syret og humoristisk i opstillede fotografier fra Samsø, hvor nøgne mennesker poserer med underlige ting over hovederne.Albert får uden tvivl den største karriere af alle, der har arbejdet for Tal R (ken). Men han er selvfølgelig også den eneste indtil videre, der ikke blot er en nuttet lille kopi. ‘Hos Bedstemor Røg Vi Cigaretter’ på One Day Gallery, Nygade 4, 1, København til den 17. september”

Wave 2 is over – be prepared for the worst selloff in our lifetime wave 3 down

the primary wave 2 is over. and the primary wave 3 down has most likely begun.
Its time to dump stocks.. take profits. and run. couse the next 30-50% down will be ugly.

thanks to Elliotwave international.

Look for the level: 5000 and below for the next target..

The first real retracement since march low – Eurostoxx 50 in retracement mode ?

well if the market ever decides to retrace.. this must be a perfect setup.  We have a just closed below 20 and 30 days Moving  avarage. I am looking for 23-38% fibo retracement from June high. Still think we are in a Primary wave 2 up.. Which has more long term room on the upside. 2-3 months. Going back doube long at lower levels,,

sp500 – chart update – something big is about to happen !!

looks like its getting ready to either chrash or explode… hitting multiple resistance. almost at 38% fibo retracement of the primary wave 1 down from Oct 2007. We are in Primary wave 2 up.. But when / soon will the Primary wave 3 down start ?? at 1050 or so ??

Eurostoxx 50 – breaking up or down ??

hmm your call… looks like a boy or girl to me.. Could go all the way to 38% fibo.. but would like to see a retracement first… come on give me 5-10% down from here. Before we go all the way up…

CHRISTOPH RUCKHÄBERLE

READING LADY (2006)

Oil on canvas, 190 x 140 cm

Karla Black / Christoph Ruckhäberle… <!––>May 16, 2009 until August 16, 2009 <!––>

The migros museum für gegenwartskunst is presenting the work of Scottish artist Karla Black (born 1972 in Alexandria, lives and works in Glasgow) in her first solo exhibition in Switzerland. Plaster, chalk dust and Vaseline, or substances such as face powder, lipstick and nail varnish make up Black’s raw materials. The ephemeral works – whether transparent cellophane arranged sculpturally to hang from the ceiling, or fragile works of gossamer-fine powder sprinkled onto the floor – present references to the Minimal Art and Conceptual Art of the 1960s and 1970s. Black simultaneously extends the classical notion of sculpture through a process-oriented, performative handling of cultural connotations and untypical materials. Not only does she create an oppositional model to the brute effect of Minimal Art, but through the use of unstable and simple substances she ties into the history of antiform, begun for instance by Robert Morris in his use of felt, or Eva Hesse in her deployment of latex. The migros museum für gegenwartskunst is presenting the painter Christoph Ruckhäberle (born 1972 in Pfaffenhofen, lives and works in Leipzig) in his first solo exhibition in Switzerland. The visual world of Ruckhäberle, who studied animated film at the California Institute of the Arts before his studies at the Academy of Visual Arts Leipzig, is peopled by odd hard-edged figures, standing in front of coloured rhythmic backgrounds. Colourful drawings of faces recall carved masks, composed from a rich and playful vocabulary of forms. These forms, and the wealth of colours in Ruckhäberle’s works, are broken not only by skewed visual angles or perspectival inconsistencies, but also through the use of expressionist and surreal borrowings. Lately works by Karla Black were to be seen amongst others at the Brussels Biennial (2008), in exhibitions such as Strange Solution, Art Now, Tate Britain, London (2008) and Poor Thing, Kunsthalle Basel (2007). Christoph Ruckhäberle’s works have been on display amongst others at Manifesta 7 (2008), and in the Triumph of Painting, Saatchi Collection, London (2006) and Life After Death: New Leipzig Paintings from the Rubell Family Collection, Frye Art Museum, Seattle (2008) exhibitions. The exhibition in the migros museum für gegenwartskunst is curated by Heike Munder.

SP500 ending the primary wave 2 up ??

could be… but most likely only the first setback of the ride from march lows. The first leg up from march looks like the A of an ABC Move.. Now we might see the B move down to some 829. But we are getting much closer to the end of Primary Wave 2 up.. When this ends… probably arounf 1000-1050 then the large down wave Primary Wave 3 will begin.

Some tech stuff from Tuttle

“Realizing this graph is very busy I’ll bullet the technical points:

On May 7th the Nasdaq has a massive key reversal day (and bearish engulfing) with the largest volume since October of last year
This corresponded to its 200-DMA and the horizontal resistance from the same time period 3-days later the Nasdaq broke the secondary bull market lineThe Nasdaq bounced off the horizontal support with what seemed to be no volume Yesterday the Nasdaq retested the 200-DMA, the horizontal resistance and its latest high and completed another reversal day on increased volume As for now, it has all ingredients to make an imploding bomb. The only thing that would reverse our thinking at this point is if the market, somehow, increased above the horizontal resistance points on massive volume. The probability of that happening is, well, let’s just say… needle in a haystack. The youngest sister (The Russell 2000) is very similar in technical stance were we believe the secondary trend is broken and the index is once again transitioning to a bear market stance.

Many pundits have been clamoring for an end to this latest bull move, including myself. Until now the evidence didn’t justify the claim. The key to completion, in our humble opinion, is when the two eldest sisters (Dow and SPX) break their secondary trend lines. When this occurs it could be like lemmings off a cliff and the next move down could be just as violent as 2008.

Everyone is waiting for something to happen, which hasn’t yet, and the tension is building. When it begins NO ONE wants to be the last man standing. Given the “road-signs” of late, and the overwhelming fundamental evidence point out that not a lot has changed in the economy, we don’t believe this is an “if” it will happen; we believe it’s a “When.””
