My beloved one just recently went for a photoshooting for the Museum for Natural Science in Berlin … and here’s the result … charming, isn’t it?
Its gonna be all over the city beginning of November, so watch out!
The sad part is that originally we were both asked to go but since I was already at CERN … that’s the way it is!
Btw … of course its for a good thing … you can still become godfather of millions of unique objects in the museum’s collection.

LHC Inauguration and LHCfest
Its been a nice party with some nice orchestra and some cool movies to start out with. After a speech by Robert Aymar and some strange slideshow with orchestra music (well only live for the Inauguration, we got the recording of it) the quite nice buffet was opened … as usual a mess … no wonder with 3000 physicists ;)
Anyway all the classic CERN bands were playing … Les Horribles Cernettes, the CERN Jazz Club Reunion and the Canettes Blues Band. We also had a special appearance of the LHC-Rap performers featuring the head of the LHC as one of the posers ;)
Fleamarket, Gimbap, Champagne Party and the Jura Mountains
After starting into the weekend with some very nice and tough badminton matches, some Orangina drinking and almost last tram missing, I continued on Saturday with the Plains Palais fleamarket, some troubles to go through to get a drill that has a hammer/action, Korean Gimbap selfmade with my flatmates and a Champagne Party at Troels’ place … almost won the music quiz with my team and went home kind a late.
Still today I woke up fairly early and was convinced to go for a hike in the Jura mountains … unfortunately the bowling that was supposed to give this weekend the proper close, wasn’t at all as good as the mountains … the lanes were quite shitty and they had this cosmic bowling thingy going on … man!
Weltmaschine
Today the Weltmaschine exhibition starts in Berlin!
Its supposed to be a very nice exhibition on the LHC and the connected experiments such as ATLAS. There’s physicists from all over Germany coming to the Bundestag Subway Station in Berlin to explain the physics and more to the visitors.
First impressions from CERN
Well the first two weeks (with a little break though) are already over …
I am slowly settling in Geneva and at CERN … quite a few new things that came up during these weeks … and quite some work, man! But its cool … ;)
Here’s two pictures of the Globe in yesterday’s fine Geneva morning fog and of my office (I sit on the left side) at CERN. Btw the weather got really nice later the day … it often starts shitty like this …
