I wrote about heavy and alternative music in the GDR and it was as difficult as writing an academic paper.

Walls, concrete and hard riffs - Rock beyond the wall, part II: The GDR

This article took way longer than originally planned. Trying, on one hand, to find citeable information, was not too difficult, but, as it is very often the case, a lot of the research on the topic is concentrated on the punk scene. And, a lot is either behind a paywall, or published onto scientific platforms that I no longer have access to, as they’re usually restricted for academic institutions. Oh well. On the other hand, while I have a good understanding on a lot of things GDR, I needed to find a way to explain the basics to people who don’t. I hope this won’t be too boring for whoever is reading, and if you make it through the first paragraphs, there should be enough music in the following part to compensate you.

Schirmkinder (Umbrella Kids) is the title of this sculpture fountain of the late 1960s. You can still find examples of this kind of GDR everyday art all over Prenzlauer Berg, Weissensee and other parts of former East Berlin.

@werkabenteuer Hier tut auch der Allesschneider aus Klingenthal (sic!) noch brav seinen Dienst 🙌 #DDR #GDR #ewnas

Ieri prima sessione della nuova campagna "western coi dinosauri".

Dopo aver fatto l'ultimo PG mancante (nuovo giocatore), abbiamo giocato per circa 1 ora e mezza.

Diretti ad una miniera, sono entrati in un canyon, hanno visto terra smossa dietro ad un masso, han trovato un cadavere e lo hanno esaminato. Poi han raggiunto le baracche e trovato corpi smembrati.
Fine sessione.

"Il Tegame di Tascia", la prima espansione di Cinque & Cinque, è disponibile online, gratis e open source come tutto il resto.

Classi e razze della tradizione reinterpretati in modo semplice, ultra-leggero e con un pizzico di umorismo.

Ma non solo: 8 appendici di regole opzionali, tra cui quelle per i seguaci.

Ho potuto fare pochi playtest, molti meno di quelli che avrei voluto, quindi se lo provate e mi fate sapere mi fate un bel favore!

Dietro lo Schermo
#Chemnitz, 2026.

A few weeks ago I got 2 vintage #EXA cams, 1a and 1b by #Ihagee. In one of them I found a film, I closed the cam and finished it. #ORWO #NP22 is a #GDR production, so it was at least 27 years old, maybe older. There are #LightLeaks because I opened the cam but it still worked. Bad scans done by the DM lab, I need to redo it (I even would say there are more pics visible on the negatives).
