If you want poetic dissection of the drive towards the singularity (that Elon Musk is ranting about), Dino Buzzati delivers in this 1960 AI prophecy

Rita being innocent when she dreams #borderterrier

Beautiful beautiful lucid poetic prose, all about youth and adulthood, friendship and lonelyness, and the light and the air and the sky and the sea and Amsterdam and constant change… Nescio added to my personal pantheon of greats.

So many iconic David Lynch cinematic moments. I will forever obsess over the way he uses the sound and images of the hospital gas lights in The Elephant Man. Go back and watch. #ripdavidlynch

Stuart E. Eizenstat was so powerful. Beautiful eulogy for Carter that with Shakespearian devices rang: But Trump is an honorable man.

Maybe the best essay on #photography I have ever read. Thank you to Maria Stepanova for drawing it to my attention in her impressive novel In Memory of Memory. This is written ~1927 by Siegfried Kracauer eclass.uoa.gr/modules/docu...
