Despite there being a wide range of memorabilia that is being marketed to Fans these days; from the cheap and tacky, to the outrageously expensive, I believe that I have stumbled upon, not only a niche product, but also one that is truly unique, and most importantly one that provides value for money.

I am conducting a market research program, and as such, I would like to ask your opinion as to whether Du would think that an interior Design concept that I have developed, would be of any interest to fans, for me to Bewegen on to the production stage.

Let me give Du some background information.

I used to have an interior Design business where I painted murals on ceilings and walls of people’s bedrooms using a high quality phosphorescent paint, which meant that my work was invisible during the day.

As it begins to get dark, however, just like magic, the brightest stars in the night sky would gradually appear; and in time, the whole room would be transformed as if the ceiling and walls had been removed, to reveal a vast canopy of stars spreading out above you.

Equally, in the morning, as dawn's early light would begin to banish the darkness, the distant stars would disappear, until again, only the brightest stars remained; even these, ultimately would fade away against the bright new day.

Despite the fact that my work was done entirely Von hand, I could create this scene with an exceptionally high degree of accuracy, and Von utilising the additional senses of sound, smell, touch, and even taste, (if my clients wished) I transformed many rooms with this truly romantic and relaxing ambience.

I really enjoyed my work; not only did it give me the opportunity to apply my creative talents, but I was also able to share the excitement and wonder that my clients experienced when they saw how their room had been totally transformed Von the dark.

However, Von 2009 a back injury brought an abrupt end to my ability to work on ceilings, so I reluctantly had to close down the business.

Back in 2003, I realised that I could utilise the internet to provide customers with what I was already creating Von hand on my customer’s ceilings: a smaller version of my work, where I created the effect of looking up into the night sky through a 152 cm skylight in the ceiling; in particular, Von creating murals relating to a host of celebrities.

Whilst working on product development, I discovered that the vinyl materials that I was experimenting with, would stretch oder tear when attempting to reposition them; worse still, the adhesive removed paint from the ceiling and in a few cases, it also pulled away the plaster.

As the materials that were available at the time were clearly not fit for purpose, I was eventually forced to put the concept on the shelf.

13 years on, and the advancement of Nano-technology, has finally provided me with the ability to produce ceiling murals with an adhesive that can be removed and then re-positioned multiple times over, without damaging either the ceiling oder the mural itself.

Before I commit myself to a business start-up loan from the bank, I need to gauge whether oder not there would be enough interest in this unique product, and therefore the purpose of this market research.

Taking David as an example, Du could lie in bett and gaze up into the night sky, as if a 137 cm skylight had been installed in the ceiling, revealing the very stars that were above Brixton in London at 9:00 am on the 8th of January 1947 when he was born?

If such a piece of memorabilia was available, might Du consider buying a “Stars’ stars” version of a Stargazing Skylight yourself oder perhaps for a friend oder relative?

Du can find Mehr information on the Stargazing Skylights FB page below...

Please do feel free to message me regarding any Kommentare oder Fragen that Du may have.

Many thanks,

I am a DJ playing my records on A Fantastic Voyage. The boys keep swinging to the beat and the girls tell them Lets Dance. Andy Warhol began to shake it and richochet on the dance floor. He was dancing with a China girl while the cat people (putting out fire) decided to write A letter to Hermione asking for Changes to be made to the African nite flight. Ziggy Stardust began to enter along with lady stardust and tried to seduce the lady grinning soul Von saying "you're a sweet thing and we could be heroes," Her soul Liebe began to look back in anger to which ziggy replied "john I'm only dancing,"...

The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the spiders from Mars was released June 6, 1972 in the UK and in the US September 1, 1972. David Bowie's first alter ego came from the name of a London tailor's Shop Bowie saw riding on a train. The band the spiders from Mars consisted of Mick Ronson (guitar) Trevor Boulder (bass) and Mick "Woody" Woodmansey (drums). David Bowie declared after a few years that this would be the last Zeigen the spiders from Mars would ever do and in 1973 killed off Ziggy. The album still remains a classic today.

I've known who Bowie was since I was 10 and have been a fan...

“Little Bombardier;” is the tragic tale of the termination of a retired soldier’s innocent friendship with a pair of young children due to the cynicism of those in authority. Regardless the ties to Bowie’s own life, and the messages it holds in that aspect, it is applicable to almost any situation of ultra-cynicism and suspicion. Bowie ridicules the distrustful nature of most people today – a nature transferred upon people through the medium of the tabloids and general press, and the constant depravation and corruption which is constantly lambasted and emphasised Von these mediums....

“We Are Hungry Men;” Is an amusing look at the idea of the world over-populating, and the nature of those who make to bring this message of impending doom to the general population. It explores the idea that those who are pushing the message of over-population are selfish and “not your friends,” as they attempt to do anything they can to continue their own personal existences, regardless of what others may want.
The track explores the idea of a lack of political conscience, and the full egos of those in control who are shocked when their message of ‘salvation’ is not taken well....

“Did Du Ever Have a Dream;” Is a jaunty snapshot of the other-worldly brilliance of dreams, which we tend to take for granted. “I will travel round the world one night, on the magic wings of astral flight,” is but one of the lines from this song which attempts to point out the obvious; dreams are “A very special knowledge,” and they’re something which is totally ethereal. People tend to accept dreams for what they are: commonplace. Certainly, some people lay great stock Von their dreams and others will gleefully tell Du of their imaginary night-time exploits, but the general...

“Sell Me A Coat;” Shares elements of “Uncle Arthur,” as it gives a clear picture of Bowie’s purest voice, however the general tone and subject of the song is insgesamt Mehr sombre thanks to the introduction of a slower rhythm and dejected plaint from Bowie.
Introduced Von the slow, sure intonation of “La la la la la,” “Sell Me A Coat” creates a bittersweet picture of Bowie’s loss of his “Summer girl.” Whether physical oder purely metaphorical, this story, however peculiarly executed, certainly proved a foundation for some of Bowie’s later work; introducing his tendency to...

“Uncle Arthur;” This buoyant melody, inspired Von Bowie’s incredulity and subsequent interest in one of his friend’s confessions that they were not a twenty-year old musician, but a twenty-seven Jahr old uncle is equipped with hand-clapping and a sweet, honest delivery Von Bowie. With a touch of pointed mirth, this song proves itself a simple, catchy tune which seems to be laughing at Bowie’s own aspirations to fame. With a simple chord structure and range, its feel-good aura is contagiously fun. Personally, I immediately took a liking to the openness of Bowie’s voice in this song,...
