Just wonderfully interesting. Science and Art in swift interplay.

Featuring : Director Ivan Zacharias

There is something quite appealing about how the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival engaged Director Ivan Zacharias to create these segments.

Good sense of humour.

Stands out.

The Frontiers of Design

Definitely worth a watch, on where design is from leading thinkers.

There is a quote in here related to products being created to keep you in a constant loop of attention, which I agree with has gone way too far, especially for the generation that have limited exposure to the analogue history.

Are designers becoming problem creators rather than problem solvers? I think the universe of Meta, Instagram and Youtube have a massive responsibility to not become money machines and to know boundaries. The issue we get to is that nothing is ever enough.

I'd much rather go into a vinyl store than engage in internet experiences that throw freesbies at you from every direction.

Featuring: Chris Doyle

Christopher Doyle has had a tremendous impact on cinema. I am happy to have discovered his work through Wong Kar Wai, and now to learn a little more about the man himself.

Having had a chance to work as a DOP in the Canaries the past weeks, this is a massive inspiration. Worth a watch and a good laugh.

Onto the Lower and The East

Today I got a special email from London, the colour photos I went to lengths with in three cities around the world were ready developed. It's always such a great moment, with a mix of suspense and discovery, despite quite often too some revelations of mistakes - not few. But it's that process.

I kind of go with the moment onto sharing. I really want to wait to see them all, but the ones from New York are keeping me hopeful I haven't lost the quirks and aspirations of what it all was about.

Rio I love you

After having experienced Rio, I can't wait to rewatch this. I remember it made a big impact when I watched it, entirely on the levels of Paris and New York.

Meeting a new countdown. I know better what the cities mean. And this one will always be special, one of the magic ones. Packing my camera to see if I can express this better this year.

Happy New Year, it's time to get things rolling.

Organising things is extremely time consuming of recent so it's key to let it go at the speed it needs, and do it with music.. hang on the music needs a system too. This will come.

Turns out I've saved some over 2000 tracks on Soundcloud in the last decade and I think I could listen to them all in one flow if I could. Perhaps getting them into the playlist mode is a much better user experience, to be considered. Looking for good energy and the ones that have something that makes you instantly connect and wander.

Four Tet @TheLotRadio

If Boiler room wasn't enough to get you through plenty of music discovery the Lot Radio has some really lovely mixes up. Really inspiring to think a station could be set up on the islands also.

Coney Island

Autumn, 2012

As I look back to these and make sense of the archive I remember how much of an influence Vivian Maier was in 2009 when the first images were revealed to the world.

Out of the Artists worth listening to across the Atlantic, David Salle is definitely one of them.

Paintings - Haarlem 2022

Haarlem, 2022.

I look back at this and they will always remind me of a special period living in Haarlem for a year. It was a really different type of chapter than Rome, but it was equally filled with a room to want to create and so I went on a new frenzy there, acquiring canvases almost every weekend, experimented a lot and didn't necessarily have a fixed agenda to it. Outside of work it was a wonderful release to play with colour, make something in the sketchbook become tangible, mix ideas and discover some of myself through it.

How we were treated moving out is a little sting to the story, since we had to achieve this rather fast to allow for the next tenant to move in, to save costs of a double rent to the new place we found - and so by finding all possible means to make a proper clean up I later found out the lesbian owners of the apartment were complaining of finding some tiny fragments of paint, calling me an amateur painter. I really hope to show those ladies otherwise, even if my passion is self-taught.
