The Avant-Garde Never Left: Robert Hughes Described the Revolution and Then Declared It Over
Robert Hughes wanted it both ways. In the final moments of "The Shock of the New," his landmark 1980 BBC series on modern art, he declared the avant-garde dead and then, in the same breath, described its beating heart. He told us that the radical project of art was finished, that the market had swallowed it whole, that the institutions had filed its teeth down to nothing.

Earlier this week, we had the opportunity to get our (nearly 10yo) hound's teeth cleaned. It involves full anaesthetic... Wow. The unexpected side effect: dog breath is *gone*. Her teeth are stunningly white and clean. She seems pretty chuffed about it, too.

Ukraine update from Giorgio Provincialli and Alla Perdei.
World War One lasted 1568 days. Russia's illegal full scale invasion has now gone 1569 days and counting.
Over 1600 first-hand reports from ground zero, and over 300 videos in this time, nobody compares to the work done by Giorgio and Alla. True heroes.
Please share the friend link to bypass the paywall, and help the truth reach more people:
Where meditation texts are starting to lose me:
"When you consciously intend to discern certain features more clearly, unconscious mental processes try to help by exaggerating the breath. That is perfectly all right, _as long as you don't do it intentionally_”.
Sounds logical, right? Now tell me how what are the mechanisms to realize when you do it intentionally version non-intentionally?

1600, Florence. At a lavish Medici wedding, Jacopo Peri’d Euridice introdces a radical new idea: drama told entirely through music. This is the birth of opera.

The Moment Spaceflight Felt New Again
Watching Artemis II launch stirred something deeper than excitement—something human. After decades of routine spaceflight, this mission reminded me what it feels like to hold your breath, hope, and believe again.

@pkotrcka_1@vivaldi.net The part of Danang we live now is a breath of fresh air on that part. Saigon was one continous construction thing somewhere. Other parts of Danang are like that also. Here, at worst, they can burst out in karaoke on Monday afternoon 15:45. But hey, who isn't sad on Monday?

Bought new bluetooth headphones, work excellently on my phone.
Try the laptop: problems, go around in circles, badmouth Linux.
Pause, deep breath, think: disconnect from BT on phone, connect the right device, realise Linux just works, excellent sound on laptop too.
Enjoyed reading /A City on Mars/ by Kelly and Zach Weinersmith. I was impressed by the breath of topics, depth of research, and quality of writing (though a bit less puerile prose could have helped). They had fun writing it. Haters can just view it as a todo list. #BookReview

Sonnet 130 - CXXX
My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun;
Coral is far more red, than her lips red:
If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;
If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.
I have seen roses damasked, red and white,
But no such roses see I in her cheeks;
And in some perfumes is there more delight
Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks.
I love to hear her speak, yet well I know
That music hath …
i trembled in fear
or rather, excitement for what is to come
one day I know, a breath will fill out the cosmos
see, the black soliloquy

Divine intervention? How Dallas landed Dak Prescott at No. 135 in the 2016 NFL draft https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/48419390/nfl-dallas-cowboys-dak-prescott-draft-jerry-jones
After decades of living on this earth, I realized that my mental health issues destroyed some aspect of my body, such as bad dental and mouth health.
I had had no any energy at all to brush my teeths, now I suffer from chronic periodontitis and super bad breath.
Since regularly cycling, I found out that I began to have the energy to take care myself.
I began water flossing, brushing my teeths using sonic electric brushing, and scrapping my tongue. Of course I also went to t…
My pitch if I ran a TV production company would be something like:
Twelve episodes a year of 3-episode serials: That keeps the number of sets you have to construct down. It gives each story the complexity of a movie and time to breath without the frantic pace. You can have one every season of the year.
You gotta remember to focus on the companion. This isn't really a story about The Doctor, it's about the companions asking the question, Doctor Who?
Episodes should generally start with a companion's face or escapade coz they're the ones we're identifying with as we figure out who the doctor is.
At some point in 2027 you'll cast and announce a new doctor.
This is when you call Billie Piper in to film and release a webisode which is just the regeneration into Billie so far: her going "Oh, hello?" Then shaking her head and saying "oh hell no" and shaking harder until she shakes the face off into the new man or woman you picked who says "Oh, that was close".
That change into the Bad Wolf Doctor was just bad without a capstone xmas episode. So a one minute tik-tokable short to announce the newbie frees you of it.
Then you can start ep1 filming and released nearly a year later on the 65th anniversary with a story that focuses on the companion getting into trouble and meeting The Doctor.
Cast nobody famous. The production is about making stars not finding them I don't want anyone having preconceived notions about the character from seeing the actor in that other show even it it was a really good one and they're great.
Earthbound cross-time time-travel story for serial one to pick up new companion, intervene in an aliens vs aliens space-war in serial two, go screw up history and fix it for the third and aliens endangering companion's family for the fourth.
When they're 3-episode serials you only need four a year. Different writer for each.
Cliff-hangers between episodes in each serial of course, with stories about the nature of time and space and getting along with other cultures and running up and down corridors and scary monsters and of course the question "who is The Doctor and how can they fix this without guns or violence with just a screwdriver and two hearts worth of compassion".
The Doctor is some weird looking older dude, more importantly vivid and strange and scholarly than handsome. He has a big coat and no question marks. Then he can change clothes but with the same coat always have the same look. He needs to be able to do a good arrogant rant at himself while he thinks.
The companion is curious and brave and young enough to be naive and surprised and energetic. Doesn't do what she's told. Wonders off against orders. Maybe sometimes bombs things.
Obviously you keep the blue box and the tune and make a new style screwdriver.
You need to do the behind the scenes shows too. Not sure if they make or cost money but they are brilliant for the geeky fandom. That may be why it came back last time.
Anyway. Sadly I don't own a production company.
I cancelled the TV license in the mean time. Give the money to Big Finish instead. These audio things are expensive. I've bought bundles before. Anyone have favorites? I lose track of which one's I've heard.
