When I was young my father said to me:

"Knowledge is Power....Francis Bacon"

I understood it as "Knowledge is power, France is Bacon".

For more than a decade I wondered over the meaning of the second part and what was the surreal linkage between the two? If I said the quote to someone, "Knowledge is power, France is Bacon" they nodded knowingly. Or someone might say, "Knowledge is power" and I'd finish the quote "France is Bacon" and they wouldn't look at me like I'd said something very odd but thoughtfully agree. I did ask a teacher what did "Knowledge is power, France is bacon" mean and got a full 10 minute explanation of the Knowledge is power bit but nothing on "France is bacon". When I prompted further explanation by saying "France is Bacon?" in a questioning tone I just got a "yes". at 12 I didn't have the confidence to press it further. I just accepted it as something I'd never understand.

It wasn't until years later I saw it written down that the penny dropped.

I compiled the abstract art visuals I made by using my feedback loop procedural generation method and I made a 3 minute long relaxing video. I hope it can help you take some time to breath and meditate 🙂 . Take care of yourself! https://youtu.be/A7_Tyg7l_K4

I made a link to all my links! http://links.timkrief.com 😊

Mais ce site est trop génial : http://www.oldmapsonline.org/
Vous cherchez une région (par exemple en zoomant sur la #carte #OSM), et le site vous propose des vielles cartes depuis des catalogues publiques avec une région similaire ! 😀

On recherchait une vielle carte d'une région comme source d'inspiration… et on tombe sur une carte faite en 1633 🤩 Pile la ville cherchée, et des détails de fou ! C'est juste génial 😊

Advertising is just spam that someone paid money for

Viendo la tele.😮

Les libraires Gibert et Boulinier ont accompagnées mes études dans le quartier latin. C'est triste de les voir disparaitre une à une. En espérant qu'il restera un lieu de culture pour les étudiants.

C’est officiel ! La célèbre librairie Gibert Jeune, place Saint-Michel, fermera ses portes au mois de mars...
