A 15 euro fine was waiting on my desk this morning. I had got flashed by a speed camera near the Czech border. As I hook on to the web, the Helsinki story of Makasiinit arson attack has a new development. The media artist friendly AV master technician of neighbouring Kiasma had captured the whole evening's events on his webcam, including some suspicious people. The police investigation goes on, idealistic youth movements get stick from public opinion and one scholar sees it as a 9/11 style orchestrated act of war because it was timed to happen between "ice hockey match on TV and an after game beer on a terrace".
