Yesterday I saw an report called �Houses in the Desert� in arte (the French-German culture emission) � by chance I zapped into it & noticed it was about different kinds of houses in Israel � but meant to describe different kind of people & their life situation living in all kind of different habitations from tent to luxus appartment. � I only saw part of it � but in the end there were mentioned a group of �African Hebrew Israelites� � black people with religious intent to be Isrealites & that came about 30 years ago mainly from USA to Israel. � It needed decades still they were accepted (somehow) & got the right to live there �
Anyway a lot of them live in some kind of container-like buildings, they have school & kindergarten & all there, but it�s a big problem to getting building permissions to add adjoining buildings to their houses. �
But they�re building adjoining buildings anyway, but they are not concidered as buildings, because they are wrapped in black plastic foil!! �
Yes � they have a lot of sidebuildings there, all wrapped in black millbag-like foil of plastic around them � only the windows & doors are cut open. � & it looks so funny..
There seems to be a law of the building permission office, that, if something is wrapped in black plastic foil, then it�s not a building (maybe because building material also comes sometimes on pallets wrapped in foil).
This gave me the idea, about further possibilities of foil wrapping. � Just wrap yourself in black foil (like a mill bag) & you can do anything you want without anyone recognizing or seeing you, because wrapped in plastic & just don�t exist anymore to the public. � You can drive in the metro or train or go to a concert without paying, because no controlleur will be able to see under this invisible foil. � Hmm bankrobbery under black foil? (just to mention).
& under this aspect what were the real intents of wrappage artist Christo , when he wrapped all in foil the Dome of Cologne (K�lner Dom) & the Reichstag building in Berlin?
I really wonder!
