Day 351 — John Cage—HPSCHD
18-Jul-1972 (Tue.)
Today is
the big “happening” of the avant-garde music
festival, the multimedia experience of HPSCHD by John
Cage in Philharmonic Hall. It was an amazing
experience (despite my slight criticism.) A
fascinating lecture by computer music composer, John
Chowning.

Day 350 — Berlin, spending money
17-Jul-1972 (Mon.)
A light
day of activity in Berlin. I use this opportunity to
give the details of some of my money spending in
Berlin taken from my “finance journal.” It’s
interesting.

Day 349: Swimming at Wannsee
Day 349 — Swimming at Wannsee
16-Jul-1972 (Sun.)
Today is a
day of relaxation and getting sun burnt on the
Wannsee. Swimming, nudity, architecture, it’s all
part of today’s discussion. I don’t have any pictures
of the Wannsee or of nudity.

Day 348 — Boating on the Wannsee
15-Jul-1972 (Sat.)
A mildly
simple day—a lecture and a boat ride with a girl.
What? Berlin can have a boat ride? Yes, it’s Lake
Wannsee. I find a new travel blog that I like.

Day 347 — Wonderful hausfrau
14-Jul-1972 (Fri.)
A lighter
Berliner day: at the art museum, a computer music
lecture, and a disktotek. I’m trying to be wild—but
it’s not quite me. The Schloss Charlottenburg is a
castle that contains beautiful grounds and museums.

Day 345: Avant-garde music, my thoughts
Day 345 — Avant-garde music, my thoughts
12-Jul-1972 (Wed.)
It’s a big
day of much avant-garde music and art. I hear a lot
of music today and am a bit critical of things
sounding “typical.” That’s typical, of me. The Berlin
girls are chic
(and
bra-less). Berlin is a town for young people.

10-Jul-1972 (Mon.)
I travel
from Poland through East Germany to West Berlin. The

in my mind, once again. I’m in West Berlin. Yes.
