These three companies shared a building and this is their sign. Using a simple symbol for each was brilliant, I thought, and very in-line with the character of Abbot Kinney.
2nd workshop of our early summer workshop series. This time ADA Workshop! It's all about aquascaping, nature aquariums, the ADA product range, tips-tricks for contest and of course we will set up a 90P optiwhite tank in our gallery with one of our team member Keymaker - Balázs.
We stayed on rue du Temple in the Marais, on the corner of which there is a BHV department store, with a window on the street for clefs (keys). We went up to the window and tried to get the keymaker to understand we were looking for a padlock. He revealed a complete selection. When we chose the one we wanted, he handed us a Sharpie marker to write our names on the lock.
I guess we weren't the first tourists who came to his window to buy a love lock.
This photo was taken by a Spanish-speaking couple we met on the bridge.

Lost your house key? Help is at hand in the form of Javed Khan, one of the many keymakers you can see on Mumbai's pavements. They can make a key for you in less than ten minutes.
The young reporters of Jalebi Ink discovered the world of keymakers while working on the My Mohalla (My Neighbourhood) Project. Jalebi Ink is a Mumbai-based media company that produces stories, features, news, video etc for and by young people. Through the My Mohalla Project, the reporters explore the people and places that make their neighbourhoods.
Javed Khan has been making keys for 35 years now. He says he began making keys when he was just ten years old. Sometimes he gets many customers. Some days he gets a lot less. Human beings keep losing the many different keys they have in their lives – the car keys, the keys to the cupboard, two-wheeler keys, keys to a safe or a locker.
He says he makes anything from five to fifteen keys in a day. He showed us a huge bunch of old keys and different sets of key blanks. When anyone comes to him to make a duplicate, he cuts the key blanks into the required shape. Sometimes when you do not have a key at all because you have lost it, he can measure the keyhole and make a key for you.
Sometimes he uses this machine to cut the notches in the key. It cost him Rs20,000 and came all the way from Delhi. It can make a copy of a key in less than a minute with its sensor and cutter.

Teresa Margolles' installation featured key maker Antonio Hernandez Camacho. Antonio invited visitors to write a word down on a piece of paper, I took this pic of the key he made with the word that came to mind on talking to him: spirit. Antonio described life and death in his hometown, Cuidad Juarez, on the Mexican border with the U.S., riven as it is with drug violence and intimidation.

once again, hideously old. i'm pathetic :/ at least it has character (?)
oh, by the way, the hearing story ended with a dead end, so here's a try at something new, at something that's really interesting me, this keymaker has a lot to tell me. god, storytelling, in photos or words, is what keeps every moment thrilling. I don't know why the world aren't artists/writers.
The Master Key
"The key maker lived in a house with 37 rooms. Of course, each of these rooms was locked with a different, ornately designed key which he kept on a ring in his pocket. He loved to lock and unlock things—there were padlocks on his drawers, windows, front gate, and shutters. There were locks to open up his bathroom medicine cabinet, his pantry, and his icebox. He’d even put locks in places that had nothing to open—in the walls, with foreign shaped keyholes and gilded with gold, silver, and stone. He was a man proud of his work, and he was so comfortable with the language of keys that he could simply look at one of the hundreds of locks and feel the shape of the proper bittings in his pocket, without even looking at the ring. He polished each keyhole every day, so that the smooth click of the gears swinging to would be as satisfying as on the first day they were crafted.
He lived in a town with burglary and murder as an everyday occurrence—he was a smart man as well as a dedicated one, and he was correct in predicting that this was the proper place for him to live. People lined up at his door for locks and keys; the poor and the rich together (even the thieves, who wanted to protect their loot). He served them all; mixed metal keys with two teeth for the poor, and heavy, silver beauties with enameled torques and jeweled fobs for the wealthy, a skill which he considered an art.
There was no question that he was capable of making a master key, one that made walls as palpable as butter and every building, from mansions to factories, a palace in which he could romp. And logically he had one. But in terms of the safety of his own home, he was extremely paranoid. He thought about all the people that could target him, envious of his marble baths, heated aquarium (in which a mermaid swam, swam, swam all day long), and ceiling to floor fireplaces, which, when lit, made the wall seem as if it was alight. He knew that other lock-makers were capable of making master keys, and that there were many thieves particularly trained at picking locks and listening to the hum of the bolts so as to charm them into sliding open. He wanted to make his home a fortress, where every possible entrance, window, or crack was padlocked with an ingeniously designed double-sided key. His doors were of pure steel and the locks were indomitable to anyone but him, with his carefully guarded ring of pretties. Any master key, even his own (which was far superior to any other key existing), would not open his doors. However, his master key was more than a master key—it opened any lock, even ones that weren’t of his design. No matter if the lock was a pin tumbler, tubular, a lever lock, or something entirely different altogether, his master key sung to their defensive slots. While his own locks were supreme protectors, every other one was like a trembling doe in the face of his master key.
And so it was that each night the key maker would live a different life, one in which nothing was hidden and everything was attainable. He didn’t steal—he did something much more rewarding. He learned about the things that made families dart their eyes or change the subject. He uncovered men’s pasts, and the words that made them cower. As everyone else was in bed, the constant vibrations of his master key were soporifics. The key maker, free to do as he wished, would light bonfires out of the trash left in bins. He would hammer nails into the marbled corridors of anyone he disliked, all the while the key singing its tune. He hated bounties of them, even the ones that handed him lumps of powdered gold. He hated them because they were cowards and because they were hypocrites, sitting on couches of pinned back skin, complaining of the cow’s skin when they wobbled in their own gray fat. He hated them because they were proud, and greedy, and disgusting, but they tricked themselves into thinking they were not.
This was what the key maker thought, and so he paid it all back to them at night, when his keys were like a cape, and his fingers like wands. He often asked himself if he was a key-maker or a lock-maker. He didn’t know whether he spent more time opening doors or fastening them."
