Sofa on the run

Sunday April 9 2006, a sofa won the yearly marathon of Rotterdam.
The sofa was taking part in the marathon to demonstrate for a personal aim, to bring back the popularity of upholstered furniture:
“Well-tried sofas and armchairs are abandoned in streets, they have to give way to fancy lounge-seats. Upholstered furniture reclaim for their spot in every family-live. Upholstered furniture is tired of taking burn-mal, to bear children jumping on them and then left behind as waste product in streets. (…)”
The sofa will continue fighting for its rights in the “Polstergruppentherapieraum” in Blaak10 soon.

Yesterday night I went to a beautiful place called Vera in Groningen to dress up At No Bikini Beach as a bunch of superheroes. Anita and I made the dresses in another 7-hours-highspeed-trash-action. Now Anita went back to Switzerland for some days 'cause she's a famous DJ down there. But you'll have the opportunity to dance with Bête Bétonique at De Unie on 13th of May. Don't miss it! (Anna)
