    Paris attacks 13.11.2015

    I remember that evening very well.
    I was watching television when the first images were transmitted live from Paris.
    It was terrible, it was the second attack I could watch on television after the September 11 attacks in New York City.
    It was a massacre. 130 people were killed and more than 400 were wounded in a coordinated islamic terrorist attack.

    Col de Madone

    «Le col le plus difficile était le Col de La Madone, qui surplombait la ville et était réputé pour ses douze kilomètres particulièrement raides. La Madone, trop pénible pour être tentée tous les jours, était parfaite pour tester sa condition. La plupart des coureurs la faisaient une ou deux fois par saison. Je l’ai faite une fois par mois».

    Munich 1972 Otl Aicher

    The Olympische Sommerspiele 1972 were the first Olympic Games I could watch at the television. It was an important edition, not only for the incredible quality of the visualdesign created by OTL AICHER and his team Dept.XI, for the futuristic architecture of the Olympiapark designed by OTTO FREI, it was very important for the development and the modern urbanisation of the city of München, at that time, a city suffering the effects and post-effects of WWII.

    1972 Olympic games

    Olympic games are not always an athletic festival.
    In 1972 during the Olympische Sommerspiele 1972, eight Palestinian criminals, members of the terrorist group Black September, took eleven hostages, all members of the Israeli Olympic Team and killed them. One hostage was castrated and abused after he was shot!
