Street with a Church in Kandern, August Macke, 1911

I was thinking about what it would be like to have this on the wall, putting this kind of vibe into my area 😁

Really like the colors, they seem really harmonious and positive and balanced. The houses and the church are all simple and user friendly? The lines aren't rigid or exact, there's a softness but overall there's a lot of structure. Man made structure, no animals, just a couple of plants.

Christmas is coming, and you can also make a wish from the #university!
The Center for Quality Analysis is currently evaluating teaching. Both a good and a bad evaluation result can change teaching. And we can see where the biggest issues are and argue for improvements accordingly. The links to the survey should be shown in the lectures or sent to you by e-mail. If you are unable to vote in a compulsory course, please ask the lecturers or us.

OK, gonna stop now McCallum's bass isn't everything for everyone; it's him, and his style. For a more toned-down example of his work, check out Nugget

He is less out front, less attention-grabbing, but still doing unexpected, beautiful things that make the recording more compelling, more dancy, more "gotta move".

For a look at what he sounds like when he plays mellow, here's Frank Sinatra (the song, not the dead guy)

For his take on jazz, listen to Cake's cover of Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps.
song.link/us/i/254348222

He doesn't "do jazz," but he does jazz.

Final thoughts: Cake was critical listening in the 90s. I know thousands of bands "deserved" fame and only a few got it, but I have no issues with Cake's success; they worked as hard as anyone, were as talented and skilled as anyone. Listen to how tight they are, how their rhythms (sometimes very complicated) are surgically precise. How they find grooves where other bands might just have a "dull part of the song."

The end. But I'll probably squee a bit sometime about Cake's guitarist, Xan McCurdy

+Pluswerk Partner Meeting: Collaboration, Strategy and Leadership 📈👨‍💼

Last week we held our second +Pluswerk Partner Meeting of the year in Munich. It was three days of strategic insights, energetic discussions and positive vibes all around. Under the expert guidance of Semikolon Consult, with Kathrin Kessler and Ilka Schuette on site, we delved into critical topics such as leadership, business strategies and conflict management. An outstanding takeaway: "Behaviour follows attitude" - a mindset we're taking forward to build even stronger collaboration and team culture. 💡

The cherry on top? Our social gathering at the Motorworld Inn Munich brought us even closer together - great food, better company and unforgettable moments! 🍽️✨ We're moving into the future with renewed energy and ideas - ready to lead by example and tackle challenges with renewed focus.
