Icons of Modernism
Went to the art gallery today.
Randomly…
- I need glasses to look at art
- Creating a scene of soldiers pre WWWI needs a precise visual memory
- I still love Dali
- Etchings with lines as shading… blurring the lines
- Sclipture is not always 3D even if it has 3 dimensions
- Art is about what’s next. Not about what is.
- Art is not static. It can change and be different
- Art can be an idea. If the art disappears, the art can still remain
Middlin’ Medea
Studio Theatre’s last show is Medea as suggested by Euripides… whatever that means. The house is let in with a couple of actors playing in the sand centre stage. Hmmmmm
Ah. Well. Blech.

H two Oh
Summer time. And the living is easy.
There’s a Dr in da House
Last night we celebrated Leslie’s successful defense of her doctoral dissertation at Pampa’s. Much meat and wine were had by all. A lovely stroll around the Leg grounds settled it all out and Dr. Vermeer celebrated Rocky-style at the too of the steps.
We are so proud.
And of course, she received her not-so-traditional sheepskin.
Simply LOL
Reading books…
Well I decided to find our how much actually read these days. Leslie racked up over 200 books last year with her academics, professional upgrading and penchant for YA. I won’t get anywhere near that total but here is what I’ve read since January.
You’ll not that I still haven’t managed to branch away from pulp. Every time I try I realize I have no patience for anything but making my brain stop thinking rather than the opposite… Well we all have our escapes. In additions have almost entirely converted to ebooks. With my new library on multiple devices and my old library still in boxes it is very suited to my lifestyle and once I got used to the physical experience it has very few drawbacks..
Anyway, without further ado…
