... a time machine to The Velvet Underground & Andy Warhols 1966 Exploding Plastic Inevitable Shows and Warhols "Factory":
exploding plastic inevitable

|

... and also a time machine to both the early days of the Lettrist International in Paris ("Ne travaillez jamais" - Never work)

& the situationist May of 1968 in France ("Mouvemend des occupations" - Movement of occupations / Bewegung der Besetzungen)

... and not to forget:

... a time machine to the revolution in the Germany of 1918/1919 to support Rosa Luxemburg, Karl Liebknecht, the DADA movement and their comrades & companions to fight not only German monarchy, but also the conservatives & militarists. Together with the betrayal of the revolution by the naive social democratic party (SPD) in this country, the failure of this revolution has given way to the NS-regime. Wish, that would never had been happened.

Finally now & today we..ve got the chance to change things for the better...
