I went to the beautiful little town of Bietigheim today, because my son had a rehearsal with the Youth Philharmonic Ludwigsburg there. Anyway, the old town is lovely. Stunning half-timbered houses, a 14th-century city gate, a music school in an old castle, and also … this. 😳

I know it's nearly everyone's favourite Hockney, if they have such a thing, but A Bigger Splash is one of those visual memories that has stayed with me in the 26 years since I stopped seeing the world. Something about the shades of translucent blue swimming pool water with the sunlight reflecting off it, makes me feel good, even to this day.

Myself and a dear old friend, who also happens to be a pinball-obsessed graphic designer, have started a passion project ‘thing’ together called ‘Playfield’, abbreviated to PLYFLD. It’s gonna be pinball meets art meets collaboration - give us a follow on the ol’ Insta: www.instagram.com/p_l_y_f_l_d

„Die öffentliche Demütigung gab es schon mal. Von 1933 bis 1945 wurden etwa Sinti und Roma oder Juden auch gezwungen, vor der Haustür zu kehren und dann wurden sie deportiert. Die Botschaft lautet: Ihr seid nirgendwo sicher.“

Schon klar, wählt die ruhig weiter.

Oh, so Svelte is basically also under the Vercel umbrella? 🙄 (Since 2021? I somehow missed that…)
