Milano day 2 (Subway)

Perspectives
“What would this painting by Titian have looked like four hundred years ago?” I always find myself asking myself new questions – and noticing details I have never appreciated before – when I visit galleries. Some of this comes with my studies. I saw a portrait in the entrance...
how the poem
how the poem slows time — of day and night. how the poem flows words — all in sight. how the poem shows mirrors — reflections of light. how the poem knows conditions — ours alike.

Music; electricity
As I approached the top of one of the many long staircases from Cockburn Street to the Royal Mile, I felt an electricity in the air. The street was full; shows happening everywhere as part of the Edinburgh Fringe festival. People were handing out fliers to fill crowds. I alwa...
Wonders of Web Weaving, Episode 14
The fourteenth episode of Wonders of Web Weaving is out: In Episode 14, I chat with Robb, the author of rknight.me about, among other things, metaphors for websites, the importance of sharing things you like on the web, running an indie service (Echo Feed), and more. I hope you enjoy the episode! Wonders of Web Weaving also has an RSS feed you can use to follow along from wherever you get your podcasts.
It’s holiday time! Spend our first day in Milan. There might be more travel photography here in the next days. Or maybe not. Because I’m on holiday!

🎬 Father Mother Sister Brother
letterboxd.com/danielpietzsch/film/father-mother-sister-brother/
A lovely film about the relationships between parents and their kids, and some of the different ways this can go. It’s really not happening much. But I don’t know; Jarmusch always entertains me. And having three movies in one is fantastic: you can just spot all those little details and similarities among them without “having” to watch another one of his films. So, mix all the Jarmusch ingredients, multiply by three, serve them on a single plate, and Bob’s your uncle!
👍 Recommended!
🎬 Basic Instinct
I sure have watched this back in the day. But I couldn’t remember much. And I certainly did not see the uncut version. Anyhow, this was suspenseful and sexy and psycho with a great story. Reminded me quite a bit of Hitchcock. And it has just the right amount humour. Loved all the car chases. And Sharon Stone’s character and acting is just perfect.
👍 Recommended!
🎬 Mission: Impossible
So, I finally got to see that famous vault scene where Tom Cruise hovers over the ground. And that scene was indeed very cool. But overall, I found this to be a little boring. Maybe because I found the premise to be quite low-stakes, especially in relation to how many people of their internal force are sacrificed. And the end action sequence is ridiculous.
images
Confident reflections of my reserved self. Colourful, frozen, fragmentary, ephemeral frames, I carry everywhere. Heavy as self.
Poems as wayfinding
When I look at a painting, or read a poem, or a story, I feel like I am entering a new world, one created by the artist, the writer, to evoke a particular feeling, to highlight something meaningful, to document a moment, and for many other reasons too.
I love the feeling of ...
Morning, sunrise
The horizon is painted with a cool, warm glow. The sun has not yet risen; the hills are its blanket. The sky is a clear blue.
I woke up earlier than normal this morning. I find myself writing while gazing out the window, watching the sun rise, its light filling the room, ill...

Herein, three chapters from today: two reflecting on the evening, and one looking back to the morning.
