OK, yet another brief disclaimer: I am not endorsing everything this man has ever said, but I admit to having a deep affection for his warped yet keen mind. If you've ever seen the documentary by Zwigoff, you'll probably know what I mean.

So if this choice offends any here, that is not my intent. This is, after all, art that moves ME. 🙂

Day 8: Robert Crumb

To continue my most recent post, here is another portion of Bonhoeffer's "Letters and Papers from Prison" that rings true.

"Never again will we try to persuade the stupid person with reasons, for it is senseless and dangerous."

From the writings of a personal hero.

I have to go back and read his "Letters and Papers from Prison" (among other writings) every now and then to remain properly tuned.

This portion helped me this morning. Maybe it will help someone else make sense of what we've been experiencing.

This is what it looked like in my neighborhood sometime around the summer of '73 .

This photo would have been taken just before we all got bored and decided to play lawn-dart dare, girls vs. boys edition.

For my friends who dig music, trivia and especially musical-trivia:

Here is another selection from Chamæleon Church, called "Spring This Year"

Day 3: The gauzy, melancholy paintings of Caspar David Friedrich. They get me.

Day 2: I love the whimsical art of Theodor Geisel. I have several of his pieces, including this one ("Plethora of Cats") which is hanging in my dining room (this picture is not my dining room, however).

Interesting that I'm seeing some (but not all) youtube posts with no preview, and the message "Your browser is deprecated. Please upgrade."

Is that based on the browser of the person who creates the post? Or perhaps of the code (user agent) that reaches out to grab a preview?

Perhaps it's only on those posts that reference "music.youtube.com"

Day 1: OK, bear with me here. If you're not someone who can separate art from the artist, you probably should not read further.

I'm not praising the man or his "beliefs", but the art of Stanislaw Szukalksi (sculpture, painting, drawing) is quite astonishing to me. It's new every time I look at it. Somewhere between H. R. Giger and the perfect yet alien asymmetries of Frank Lloyd Wright.

Going to early vote today. Yay!

Debating whether I should wear one of my anti-TFG shirts to the polling place. In Texas.
