[final] Notice - das war's

that was it my friends, the project is suspended indefinitely... thanks for all your support... bis zum nächstes Mal... tschÜssi!

um minuto em... Marrakech - Jemaa el-Fna (nuit)

lights out! so that's likely to be the last video I'll be posting here - I haven't been recording anything in a while and at the time of writing I don't even own a camera anyway... again, one minute recorded in Marrakesh, at Jemaa el-Fna, January 2014...

um minuto na... Colômbia - por Santa Marta

not entirely sure of the location - as it wasn't me, unfortunately, who shot this video - but definitely around Santa Marta, Colombia, recorded in December 2013... this is the first guest video, and very possibly the last one as well, a courtesy from the incredibly talented Madame Chän - so, many thanks for this nice video (as she knows kids playing football is one of my favourite motifs)...

um minuto em... Marrakech - Jemaa el-Fna (jour)


I hadn't recorded one of these in well over one and a half years but a trip to Morocco was a good enough incentive to take the camera out of the drawer... this video was filmed from a rooftop overlooking Marrakesh's main square, Jemaa el-Fna, on a warm Saturday afternoon in January 2014...

um mimuto em... Gênova - P. Principe

Friday afternoon at Genoa's Piazza Principe train station... a very Italian mess: lots of noise, late services, crowded trains, etc... unfortunately the highlight of the moment happened off-camera: a pair of policemen calmly walking over the tracks to the platform across, while enjoying a cigarette, things that are somewhat forbidden - but hey, it's Italy, so what the heck... recorded in March 2012...

um minuto em... Albenga - vecchi giocando

one minute filmed in the back room of a bar in Albenga, Italy - March 2012... absolutely no idea what game these elderly men were playing, or if they were up to anything else than just innocent card games, but someone whistling the tune from the Godfather series in the background can certainly leave a bit to the imagination, hahaha...

people coming out of the metro in Milan... if I'm not mistaken, filmed at Porta Garibaldi, in March 2012 (that bit I'm sure about)... the Metropolitana di Milano is Italy's longest metro system, and longer than all of the other systems in the country - Rome, Naples, Turin, Genoa and Catania - combined...

um minuto em... Milão - bambini giocando calcio

two boys playing football - perhaps the next generation of AC Milan or Internazionale stars honing their skills... recorded in Milan, March 2012 - and maybe we'll see them gracing the field at San Siro one day...

um minuto em... Belluno - gelateria

despite being a sunny Saturday, it wasn't any warmer than 13 or 14ºC, nevertheless, people kept coming to the ice cream shop and there was always a queue - and understandably so, their ice cream is magnificent... filmed in Belluno, northern Italy - March 2012...
