Spaces are haunted by hallucinations upon entering the antipode of the mind on a Friday afternoon before the laboring part of humanity answered the last phone call and wiped the last table – Berliners roam houses of daytime speed on the Lane of Bricks, brakes activate on Barclays bicycles parking their wheels opposite shaved heads, cigarette smoke, glints of red leaving imprints on white porcelain cups put on hold as lips articulate aphorisms in French, wheels stop turning, foreheads are burning, sweating off the third cup of coffee, preparing the body for a fourth one, high heels, platforms, low forms, stilettos and socks crowd around the speed engine.
