Eh, sexy lady
오-오-오-오 오빤 강남스타일

Hello, my name is Morty Goldman; I just stumbled upon your site - www.riikosakkinen.com - I'm sorry to write in such an odd manner. What I have to say may be of great interest to you. Did you know that an overwhelming majority of businesses, organizations and celebrities buy likes and followers? What, you thought your competitor's likes and followers are organic and naturally gained? Ha ha. Just recently Gangman Style reached a record 2 billion views. Now imagine the scale of Gangman Style's popularity being applied to your business! This is exactly how I deliver results to my clients - and I assure you that you'll be overwhelmingly pleased with the outcome.

Dear Morty, it's not gang man but Gangnam Style. Best, Riiko

Kkk Kfc - Kkk Kfc

KKK KFC

26 May 2014, Cervera de los Montes

I Instagramed the rests of my KFC lunch and the company censored my picture telling that I was violating their community guidelines. They suggested that the photo a) was not mine, or b) pornographic, or c) had illegal content, or d) attacked somebody. Maybe Colonel Sanders felt I was attacking his business forming the infamous KKK of Ku Klux Klan of his family friendly logo. #kfc #kkk "kentuckyfriedchicken #kukluxklan



Finland, Sweden, Syria And Home - Constructing Muna

FINLAND, SWEDEN, SYRIA AND HOME

23 May 2014, SK4249 Tampere - Stockholm

I’m flying back home via Sweden and reading Ammar Abdulhamid’s novel about Hasan who has the ability to smell a menstruating woman among a thousand others. It makes me sad to read a story that takes place in Damascus before the devastating war caused by the geopolitical greed of the West. What is the odour of the destruction?

I don’t understand why I get so tired always when I travel. This week my job at Serlachius Museum was supervising things, basically drinking coffee and waiting. The Finns also stop working very early in the afternoon, I had time to watch TV in the note room. No parties or other activities than sauna with Pauli. Anyways, next week will be harder - my wife travels tomorrow morning to Germany and I’m going to be alone parenting the kids. That will mean practically no working but it doesn’t matter because an army of workers is finishing my MuNA - Museum of No Art while I play Lego and football.




Operation Muna - Director Of Muna

OPERATION MuNA

19 May 2014, Mänttä

I'm in Mänttä, Finland, installing MuNA - Museum of No Art at Serlachius Museum. Actually, as the director of this fictional museum, I'm not doing anything myself but just overlooking operations of a huge bunch of real professionals working with my project - steel workers, clothing designers, lightning specialists and many more. The new Serlachius museum looks amazingly good - and MuNA begins to look as dystopic as I wanted. I don't know what is going to happen with its metal structure after the exhibition - is it my property or owned by the museum that pays the productions costs - but I'm thinking it could be a great summer kitchen for my patio.
