Recordist's notes

A concrete cavern with tiled pillars that is both a subway for crossing the road and an entrance to the U-Bahn. There are not so many people for rush hour, maybe because of the Covid lockdown-light that currently rules Berlin. Suddenly two girls burst out laughing. They've been hiding from someone and jump out when he passes. I have been here often. It is one of the most inhospitable U-bahn stations in the city. But strangely compelling too.
