I suppose I'll think what to write tomorrow, basically I like creating art and looking at art, especially composition

Ruskin said this painting was like flinging a pot of paint in the public's face. Whistler sued him for libel and won one farthing.

[Philosophy Of Physics @PhilosophyOfPhy]

We were taught that Earth orbits the Sun in a closed circle. In reality, Earth has never returned to the same point in space once in 4.5 billion years.
​Right now, the Sun is carrying Earth and every planet around the center of the Milky Way at 230 km/s (828,000 km/h), more than 18,000 kilometers every 80 seconds.

​Because the Solar System is tilted 60.2° to the galactic plane and bobs up and down through the galactic disc roughly every 30 million years, the planets trace open 3D corkscrew helices across deep space rather than flat loops.

​The last time the Sun stood where it stands today, one Galactic Year (230 million years) ago, the very first dinosaurs were only beginning to appear on Earth. Since forming 4.6 billion years ago, our Sun has completed only 20 laps.

When Paul Feiler moved to Cornwall in the early 1950s, he joined a community which had established itself as the centre of avant-garde British art in the post-war years. His works are studies in light and shadow, space and solid objects, geometric shapes against organic forms.

This beautiful print brings to mind Japanese woodblock art with its elegant lines, striking composition and attention to detail. The warm colours of the reeds give it an autumnal feel. Good night.

“I haven’t been very impressed lately.
By people,
or places,
or the way someone said he loved me and then slowly changed his mind.”
