The side of a multi-story house, colourfully painted with small
      houses in comic style.
Went to Bilk with Zoe for shopping, errands, library, fries and ice cream.

Would have loved to see a chapter on CSS again, though #Web #Almanac

Matthias Ott Valid

Oh yesss! 🤩 The 2025 #Web #Almanac has just been released. Can’t wait to read a bit …

And of course, he stands in front of the Declaration of Independence. You can't make this up.

Inside a greenhouse with a narrow path in the middle and small
      plants in pots to either side.
Grow grow, little plants!

🎻 The best recording ever of Bruch’s Violin Concerto No. 1 is from 1962. The GOAT Jascha Heifetz with unparalleled precision, clarity, and musicality. And that transition from the first into the second movement… 🤯

🎬 Checker Tobi 3 - Die heimliche Herrscherin der Erde

Movie poster for “Checker Tobi 3 - Die heimliche Herrscherin der Erde”.

Kackfurzgute Unterhaltung für Jung und Alt. Lustig, kurzweilig, lehrreich. Nix zu meckern an diesem Kinonachmittag.

Nature

When I wake up in the morning, the first thing I do is get out of bed and turn on my fairy lights. I read for a little while under the warm glow of the lights while the sun is not yet visible in the winter morning. I am reading a book about Nature right now – stories of walki...

Walden

I wanted to start this blog post with a quote. I started flicking through Walden, which I have just finished reading, for one that would be appropriate. But then I realised any choice would be arbitrary, for the wisdom is so deep within the book that any choice would leave me...

Getting ready for studying

I start my degree in art history at the Open University in under two weeks. Just after the holidays, I got access to the materials for my first year, which is made up of two modules: “Discovering the arts and humanities” and “Cultures”. In the former module I’ll study a new t...

Overall dark (blue) image. The sky in the upper 3/4ths, the
      ground below. A large leafless tree fills the frame. A stone square with a
      cross on it stands on the ground in front of the much large tree.
It's dark in the mornings.

A white fabric with colourful thin vertical lines. From the
      left, one in red, one in orange, then yellow, green and blue. You can spot
      the occasional water drop.
Just matching the theme of this site.

The only downside of listening to Aesop Rock’s incredibly punchy and clear beats a lot is that all the rest suddenly start to sound muddy as … mud. 😅

I mean:

That rare feeling when a device is so easily maintainable that you can just open it and fix it yourself. Withered technology ftw! 🎉 (Still a bit of a weird, flimsy construction of that knob…)

Thanks to everyone who replied! 🤗

The faces and upper bodies of five men looking into the camera.
      In the background a wall tighly covered in concert posters.
Rehearsal with Brutal Unrest.

Circus artists in a bright red illuminated typical round stage.
      You can see parts of the audience behind, next to the stage, and in front
      - as silhouettes - as well as some stage lights.
That was a pretty impressive afternoon at the circus.

Documenting design changes with screenshots

While I was writing “Publishing my citation preferences”, I consciously decided that the blog post should include a screenshot of the website feature described in the post – the new “Reference this post” section on my blog pages. I knew that I might change the design of the w...

Artful life

I am reading Katy Hessel’s “How to Live an Artful Life”. The book has a single creative prompt each day to consider. I have the book – whose cover is beautifully designed, with a link typeface and a blue square so as to make the book stand out – in a prominent place. When I h...

A white boulder wall with green grips on the left side. 50cm
      from the wall to the right, the lower half of a child is hanging
      supposedly in mid-air.
We went to the boulder hall today.
