"O, had I but followed the arts!" But I did! Do you?

I'm pleased to speak at “Water Cosmology, Water #Crisis, Water Power: Hydrometaphysics Beyond Metaphor” @Yale this fall, where we ask: How can we connect with #water and waterspaces as sources of #creative and #political power and vitality?https://t.co/xsnf6m0plA

What came first the garden or the city? I was thoroughly engrossed by philosopher #EmanueleCoccia’s provocative keynote at the #ThinkingwithPlantsandFungi #conference yesterday.

It was an immersive and enriching experience to participate at the #HarvardDivinitySchool’s conference Spirituality and the Arts. A truly unique communion with artists, scholars and practitioners from #Mongolia and #Iceland to #Columbia and #India.

I discovered the verse of a mighty poet yesterday while participating in the @TheElegyProject workshop at the #WoodberryPoetryRoom. #SorJuanaInésdelaCruz--also dramatist, nun, composer, and scholar. She lived in the 17th century, but hasn't aged a day. #NationalPoetryMonth

I look forward to sharing my work at the Program for the #Evolution of #Spirituality at the @HarvardDivinity. Join us for a rich set of presentations from April 24-26th. https://t.co/twJaISzUZq

@ValeriaLuiselli A literary fellow UWC-er! Yes!

Worth returning to this insight by #HannahArendt: "What connects #thinking and poetry is #metaphor. In #philosophy one calls 'concept' what in #poetry is called 'metaphor.' Thinking creates its 'concepts' out of the #visible, in order to designate the #invisible.”

I've been on an #ArsenyAvraamov kick lately. This excerpt from Symphony of Sirens is impossible to capture with words, so here are its sounds: https://t.co/G6dHOGMkBZ

#DavidThomson writes in "A Light in the Dark": "The stream is the auteur; digital has eclipsed the poetry in things seen; the screen is our conscience, but it does not care if we are watching."

@DebargueLucas A remarkable interpretation of #Liszt' #MephistoWaltz #1. Virtuoso devilish energy! https://t.co/U7OvNgoQkE

[Arlinda Shtuni @ashtuni]

Thank you @BrattleTheatre and @HFA_theatre for an unforgettable screening of #JeanneDielman last night. In the future, I hope it becomes easier to catch this essential #film in 35mm. https://t.co/1aRHFCy70O

@laphamsquart American letters are suddenly much poorer for his passing. An irreplaceable loss.

"#Godard is like #MarshallMcLuhan in that, growing up in the romantic culture of movie storytelling, he was uncannily aware of (and angry about) the way #romance was a commercial-cultural construct of reality imposed upon us." 2/2

[Arlinda Shtuni @ashtuni]

The most insightful chapter in #DavidThomson's "A Light In The Dark: A History of Movie Directors: "[#Godard] married the intensity of silent cinema and all the dialectical possibilities of editing." 1/2

#Kadare: "The laws of literary creation are unique; they don’t change, and they are the same for everyone everywhere. I mean that you can tell a story that covers three hours of human life or three centuries—it comes to the same thing."

[The Paris Review @parisreview]

The Paris Review mourns the loss of Ismail Kadare (1936-2024). In celebration of his life and work, we’ve unlocked his Art of Fiction interview from our archive.

And so it ends. But what will become of #Kadare's complicated legacy? "I would have become the writer I am in any political regime.” https://t.co/1tDTLhZpRZ
