Točno tukaj sva se prvič srečala. Skoraj si padel v vodo, ko si hodil nazaj!"En: "Do you remember, Anže? This is exactly where we first met. You almost fell into the water when you walked backward!"Sl: Anže se je nasmehnil ob spominu.En: Anže smiled at the memory.Sl: "Ja, bil sem malo neroden." Tišina.En: "Yeah, I was a bit clumsy." Silence.Sl: Njegova duša je bila bolj zapletena.En: His soul was more complicated.Sl: Želel je govoriti o stvareh, ki so mu ležale na srcu, a besede so mu izmikale.En: He wanted to talk about the things weighing on his heart, but the words eluded him.Sl: "Tjaša, veš, zakaj sem te res povabil sem?" začel je počasi.En: "Tjaša, you know why I really invited you here?" he began slowly.Sl: Tjaša ga je pogledala v oči.En: Tjaša looked him in the eyes.Sl: "Anže? Kaj je narobe? Me skrbiš."En: "Anže? What's wrong? You have me worried."Sl: "Ni ravno narobe, samo... zdi se mi, da se stvari spreminjajo.En: "It's not exactly wrong, it just... it seems to me that things are changing.Sl: Vsak ima zdaj svoje življenje, in bojim se, da je najino prijateljstvo v drugem planu."En: Everyone has their own life now, and I fear our friendship is taking a back seat."Sl: Tjaša se je nasmehnila, a tokrat je bil njen nasmeh topel in razumevajoč.En: Tjaša smiled, but this time her smile was warm and understanding.Sl: "Anže, prijateljstvo ni vedno enako.En: "Anže, friendship isn't always the same.Sl: Se spreminja, tako kot mi.En: It changes, just like we do.Sl: Ampak to ne pomeni, da je konec ali da sva manj prijatelja."En: But that doesn't mean it's over or that we're less of friends."Sl: Zajel je sapo, njegov glas je bil tih, toda zdaj je bil gotov.En: He took a breath, his voice was quiet, but now he was certain.Sl: "Želim, da ostaneva pomembna drug drugemu, tudi če se stvari spreminjajo."En: "I want us to remain important to each other, even if things are changing."Sl: Tjaša je stopila korak bližje.En: Tjaša stepped a bit closer.Sl: "Sem zelo vesela, da si to povedal.En: "I'm very glad you said that.Sl: Trenutno mogoče ne bova vedno skupaj, ampak vedno bova pomembna.En: We might not always be together right now, but we'll always be important.Sl: In veš, imam eno idejo."En: And you know, I have an idea."Sl: "Ja?" Anže si ni mogel pomagati.En: "Yeah?" Anže couldn't help himself.Sl: Radovednost je prevladala nad njegovimi skrbmi.En: Curiosity prevailed over his worries.Sl: "Potujva skupaj naslednje leto.En: "Let's travel together next year.Sl: Izberiva novo destinacijo in poiščiva nove spomine.En: Let's choose a new destination and find new memories.Sl: Lahko vzameva šotor ali pa greva na kolesarjenje po Alpah."En: We can take a tent or go biking in the Alps."Sl: Anže je pogledal naokrog, kjer so se ljudje smejali in uživali v festivalu.En: Anže looked around, where people were laughing and enjoying the festival.Sl: Nenadoma se zima ni zdela več tako mrzla.En: Suddenly, winter didn't seem so cold anymore.Sl: "Mislim, da je to odlična ideja," je rekel.En: "I think that's an excellent idea," he said.Sl: "Mogoče je čas za novo poglavje."En: "Maybe it's time for a new chapter."Sl: Ob njegovem odgovoru je začutil olajšanje.En: With his response, he felt a sense of relief.Sl: Vedel je, da sta z Tjašo povezala radost preteklosti z obljubo prihodnosti.En: He knew that he and Tjaša had connected the joy of the past with the promise of the future.Sl: Včasih so spremembe samo nov začetek za nekaj boljšega.En: Sometimes changes are just a new beginning for something better.Sl: V vetru je bilo čutiti novo upanje, in na Bledskem jezeru je bil Anže bolj srečen kot kadar koli prej.En: In the wind, there was a feeling of new hope, and at Bledsko jezero, Anže was happier than ever before.

Slovenian Pavilion at the 53 International Art Exhibition - La Biennale di VeneziaLa Biennale di Venezia radioCona, http://www.cona.si/radio Miha Štrukelj x=0 / y=0 Interference in Process At the Venice Biennale Slovenia will be represented by a project from Miha Štrukelj, conceived as a total artwork and based on four thematic levels and media: painting, wall drawing, drawing and Lego picture. The exhibition deconstructs the picture plane with the aid of the grid as a structural and conceptual basis, where the painting is deconstructed and reconstituted through the disillusioned gaze of the subject. The themes of Štrukelj's artistic practice arise from a fascination with media-manipulated images and expand into the iconography of anonymous urban topography, and the isolated, quiet presence of the human figure. This approach is reflected in all the work, with the exception of the Lego-picture which portrays natural landscapes, a rare motif in Štrukelj's work.more: http://www.slovenianpavilion.comThis podcast is created in collaboration and co-production with RAM: http://www.radioartemobile.it/in the frame Learning Slovenian Lawrence Squire My Slovene learning journey Random Logic - for project 7 Composers produced by radioCona, 2008 radioCona, www.cona.si Random Logic alias Gregor Zemljic & Miha Klemencic are the longest established artists of the Slovene electronic music scene. They have also written music for major and alternative theatre, ballet and experimental art performances (they are collaborating extensively with the artist Marko Peljhan on his multimedia projects) and also for films. In the year 2000 they were awarded the Studio City Boomerang Award (alternative Slovenian music awards) for the best live techno act in Slovenia and recently they won 1st prize at The 2002 RFI (Radio France International) Musiques Electroniques Award for the best electronic project in Central and Eastern Europe. Borut Kržišnik - for project 7 Composers produced by radioCona, 2008 radioCona, http://www.cona.si Borut Krzisnik is a Slovenian composer of contemporary music, based in Ljubljana. He was born in Zagreb in 1961. Born into a family of diplomats, he moved frequently during his childhood, both within former Yugoslavia and abroad, before finally settling in Ljubljana. Living among different nationalities and experiencing different mentalities helped form his understanding of diversity, something which certainly contributed to his broad approach to music. He played piano as a child, eventually switching to guitar and building up his unique way of composing. He graduated in Psychology from the University of Ljubljana, but soon afterwards devoted himself to music. He released five albums: SACRE DU TEMPS (Station Zuid, 2007), A LIFE IN SUITCASES (First Name Soundtracks, 2006), STORIES FROM MAGATREA (KUD France Preseren, US's release: Falcata-Galia Recordings, 1999), CURRENTS OF TIME (Recommended Records, London, 1991; re-release: Tone Casualties, Hollywood, 1998) and LA DOLCE VITA (FV, Lju
