PUBLIC MARKS with search muse`s

Et soudain à l’horizon de nos chimères d’urbains passablement blasés que voyons-nous? Des frusques que nous n’aimerons plus dans quelques saisons? Des visages dont la grâce se sera évanouie en un battement de faux cils ? Alors vers qui se tourner? Vers quoi? Vers l’enfance, cette délicieuse contrée de plaisirs sucrés où tout n’était que jeu. En ce royaume oublié régnait une femme. Mamie. De ses longues mains osseuses et dans la lueur bleutée de ses cheveux, mamie nous choyait comme des bienheureux en nous faisant croire que cette vie durerait toujours. Mamie fut notre muse, notre bienfaitrice à tous. Merci Mamie est un hommage à cet âge d’or perdu, à ces femmes qui nous faisaient entrer quelques semaines de vacances par an dans l’illusion de l’innocence. Merci mamie est un manifeste contre la jeunesse en perte de valeurs et d’idéaux. Mamie est là quelque part, elle vous ouvre son cœur.

Le site réalisé par Upian, crée tout une ambiance avec des dessins légers, animés (flash) et colorés. On y découvre un paysage et des personnages qui nous rappellent ceux d’Alice aux pays des merveilles.

Absinthe...la fée verte..."The Green Fairy"...aucune autre boisson n'a la même histoire romantique - les impressionnistes Français...Toulouse Lautrec, Degas, Manet, Van Gogh...Paris à la Belle Époque...les cafés de Montmartre...la muse des écrivains, de Baudelaire et Rimbaud à Joyce et Hemingway. Évidemment, il y a aussi une face cachée: aucune boisson n'a suscité de condamnation plus fervente, et aucune autre boisson n'a été entièrement interdite comme l'absinthe le fut en 1915.

What struck me was that locative media practitioners often refer back to the situationists as some kind of ancestors, as if they’re working in the same vein. …

But that, to me, seems to be where the similarities end. As alive-and-kicking situationist muse Jacqueline de Jong pointed out during the evening, the situationists wanted one thing above all else: to destroy and disrupt our cushy society. They were sick of it, vowing never to work a day in their lives. They probably would have laughed if they had seen that their ideas had been cherry-picked for ripe concepts. The derive, the detournement. All simple concepts that they purposefully packaged in complex and artistc jargon. And we fell for it.

Absinthe...the Green Fairy...La Fée Verte....no other drink has the same romantic history - the French Impressionists....Toulouse Lautrec, Degas, Manet, Van Gogh....Paris in the Belle Epoque....the cafes of Montmartre....the muse of writers from Verlaine and Rimbaud to Joyce and Hemingway. Of course, there's a darker side to absinthe as well - no other drink has ever roused the same degree of passionate condemnation, and no other drink has ever been banned outright in the way absinthe was in the years leading up to 1915.

5B4 is a blog about photo books. I love (and collect) photo books. Everybody loves Alec Soth's blog, for obvious reasons. It's simply great. Exposure is a new blog by Aperture, which has had a very promising start. BLDGBLOG is not a photo blog (it's mostly about architecture), but it so intelligently written that every other post I wonder how amateurish my writing might look in comparison. BPS Research Digest, a blog summarizing psychological research, typically makes me channel Mr Spock ("Fascinating!"). For me, Brian Ulrich's blog is right up there with Alec's blog, with a slightly different focus and style. Ed Winkleman's blog is the only art blog that I read regularly (even though I scan a few others). His is most engaging (but hey! what do I know about art?) Exposure Compensation is a great photo blog. gmtPlus9 (-15) requires advanced calculus to determine the actual time zone, but will keep you entertained until you manage to figure it out. i heart photograph features a lot of good photography, with preferences a bit different from mine. Great blog! Modern Art Obsession delivers art/photography with a bit of attitude nicely. The actual Mrs. Deane behind Mrs. Deane is a good friend, and her blog I cannot praise enough. muse-ings always contains "intelligent" (M. Parr) and interesting discussions of photo issues and photographer's work, with the ruffling of the feathers being a regular feature. Another must read, just like (Notes on) Politics, Theory & Photography, which, however, is a bit more on the politics and - often - theory side. Shane Lavalette's blog is another great photo blog, as is The Sonic Blog, the only German blog in this list. VVORK shows you an ecclectic set of art with few words (just the way I like my art). For those who want to read Frank Rich's columns without having to buy the waste of paper called the Sunday New York Times, there's Welcome to Pottersville (the magazine is online and quite overrated actually).
