Where does private territory begin and
Where does it change into the public realm?
First interview
What do you want to share with me?
I want to share with you my experience that I had in Detroit.I just came back from Detroit.I’ve been there for 3 months, from Ocober till the middle of January. Then I came back to The Hague for a week and now I’m in Berlin, so I travelled a lot last few months. I came up with great life experiences so.
Why do you want to share it?
Because at the moment it’s the thing that has the most influence on me. So for the moment that’s the most important thing going on in my life. Transition in my life or in my being here.
What is it in your life that you never shared and that you want to share right now with me?
I can’t think of anything. I have to think about that one. Well, I told this to a few people. When I was young, I was about 6 or 7 years old and I accidentaly burn down a shed. That was terrible. That made me feel really horrible. And nobody ever knew that I did it. So that’s my sharing informations at the moment.
And why didn’t you share it with others?
I felt I couldn’t trust anyone. Well of course at a later age I did. I only told a few people I trusted at that time. I think it’s a way to make it public this way.
You were afraid that they said it’s your fault?
Maybe. I guess so. Or I could get in trouble with the police of something. When I was young I was like that. That’s not the case anymore.
What was the last secret that someone told you?
Hum…I’m not allowed to tell these things! No I really can’t…No I can’t come up with anything that I can share with you.
What do you definitely not want to share with me?
Private informations of people that I promessed not to keep my month shut. People knows they can trust me when they tell me things like that. I’m not in a position to make that public, whatever it was even if it was something small.
What do you want to tell me as a secret?
I want to tell you as a secret…That’s a good one! Let me think about that…I want to tell you as a secret that I’m going to have a haircut tomorrow. You’re the only one you know it right now.
