Stephan Zweig
...
In 1941 he went to Brazil, where in 1942 he and his second wife Lotte committed suicide together in Petropolis, despairing at the future of Europe and its culture. "I think it better to conclude in good time and in erect bearing a life in which intellectual labour meant the purest joy and personal freedom the highest good on Earth", he wrote...

wow, .... What a pure mind, what a pure soul he must have had..  Do people like him still exist? .. Or did they all have to die one way or the other, .. from not being able to bear the ugliness of the world, or what has become of it. ..?!.
And.. in all three stories that i've just read, something was bothering me.. No,not "too much drama" as I initially worded it, but something else.. - maybe The premise?!.. - the level of intensity of moral suffering that his characters go through.. In each story, their whole life falls into pieces over some mistake....some very human mistake, that they aren't ever able to forgive themselves for. ..
The doctor kills himself over some woman that needed his help, and whom he DIDn't help while he could. .. That woman - allows some witch-doctor to kill her just so that the husband wouldn't find out about her baby from another man... Yet another woman .blames herself for 20+ years over a moment of blind compassion & passion toward gambler. Mind you, she wasn't married, nor has she slept with him or anything. ..

Yes, that's exactly what surprised me in each of his stories... What a high standard of morality.. Did he himself live by this? On THIS level ? ... Judging by suicide, he did. ...............

Oh well. ...What can i say..?! ,,, "Respect".
... As to me, i always forgive myself for everything and anything, however ugly or immoral this is. Not that i do too many Ugly-Ly-Immoral deeds, but still. :)  ,,, .. I stick to belief that we get a chance to "upgrade" ourselves and do better next time... in THIS lifetime. :):):)
Hence, .. sorry Mr. Zweig, but .. i dunno why did you have to kill yourself, and talk your wife into it?!  Maybe instead you'd be better off doing something useful, like writing anti-war cute little stories, or fighting.. But that's just me. .. :)

In the absence of humans to talk to in my kitchen, & in the presence of a well-developed case of phono-phobia .. one [me] is to turn to lj.
what gives!?

.. so, anyway,.. As i am ~~reading~~, listening to Scott Fitzgerald's short stories, ..stories filled with Yale graduates hanging out in NewYork in their twenties, flirting, dating, making careers, .. socializing, little by little growing tired of 'all of the above' & dissilusioned with their lives, marrying the wrong people for the wrong reasons, killing themselves. .. [not always, .. only, maybe , every second or third story.. :)] . .. , Well, it all sounds very familiar. ..:)
I find it interesting that most of these stories are dated 1922/1923, well off before the Great Depression had come and hit them over the head, .. So ..
As a rule, by 25, ..26, 27/28 the most, - all those "kids" in all those stories seem turning irreversibly old, pragmatic, cinyc, too old for love, too old for.. well, anything. .. I suppose we are a "younger" or more immature generation. ..Everything takes us 5 -10 years more. .. Hmm....
:)
On a different note, it's curious to see that we are by far not the first generation that is having just WAY-TOO-Much fun in NY. .. or .. are we still having too much fun?.. or, .. Shall i say that in my 25+5years adjustment for our "era' , i am just as tired of all the meaningless social encounters as those others back in 1922..? ..
Maybe indeed some things don't change..
--------------
The end. {not of a thought, but of a need to share this thought with a virtual nowhereness..}
--------------
Disclosure.: This was not to say that i am to kill myself anytime soon. :) .If i were a Yale graduate, maybe then. .:)
.. But a nice schooling is not a part of biography. .. :) ... Maybe then i am spared of the average destiny of Scott Fitzgerald's characters?.. Maybe,, or maybe not., :)

theater season is upon us

2008-09-19T15:43:42Z

Soo..
Theater season is unveiling, and i gotta keep track on the absolute must-see masterpieces [... i mean, i BET on those to be masterpieces]
..
1)Chocolate factory theater -"1965UU". Now That's a good name for a play.
Mac Wellmand and Paul Lazar - my favorite people in the world. Thursdays are free if i manage to pretend to be a Queens resident..

2) Peter Brook is coming to town with "The great Inquisitor' in collaboration with Theatre des Bouffes du Nord's -from Oct 22-to Nov 23 in NYTW
Sunday performances are $20. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

3)Mary Zimmerman is doing another opera in the MET this season - .. gotta check which one, +
4) just heard about the upcoming 'Arabian nights" run dirrected by her in ...Berkley repertory?! Now where the hell is that? -Oh. that's near SF. .. accessible by BART. .. maybe good time to go back to SF..
... Nov 14-Jan 4.

5)THE FIRST BREEZE OF SUMMER

in Signature theater - extended again till October 19. a super-must-see.
followed by "Home" and "Zooman and the sign".

6)Wow. ===> Revelation Readings of the Red Bull Theatre, presenting Monday evening readings of largely the Revelation Readings of the Red Bull Theatre, presenting Monday evening readings of largely neglected great plays with marvelous casts. Their 2008-2009 reading series was recently announced. Tickets are $25 each, but you can buy various packages from three to eight, at various savings

---
more to come.

Now that's EXCITING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

some photo-editing routines to think about..

2008-03-14T19:48:42Z

some things to try-out later to streamline my photo-processing routine:

1)Before each event, synchronize 2 camera-bodies [+assistant's] to have same date a time to a second!
2)If possible, roll 1st camera numbers to 0000. second - [is it possible - to 5,000.]
This should take care of not having same img-names on diff cameras for the day.

3)Research if i can use some software [a convenient non-fancy one!] to automatically rotate all vertical pictures.
4)then, delete all tooo underexposed or tooo overexposed based on thumbnails look in preview.

next, ... upload? or burn originals disks?
or - if RAW - import to Arpeture.

Alternatively: - custom-made little program to extract images that i need and put them in separate directory.

another nice quote.. :)

Light stand
Quantum Turbo
Quantum Turbo SC
Spare cables for the turbos
Grey card (although I haven't touched it in years... I still have it)

..so...

in the view of things, i don't see the point of taking pictures.. not until i define for my self where photography.. and art, too, fit in the picture.
What's important is to learn.. to read.. to listen.... to think.. to feel ..to see. ...to be open..
Reflecting on it via photography or any other medium makes sense only once there's some order in mind.. or, rather , a strong notion that "it" needs to be reflected upon, transformed into an object with a life and energy of it's own .
..otherwise, ....what gives?!..

How does one abandon the idea of need for ..space limitation, ...composition, contrast, value... ? ..movement..dinamycs ..?
how does one abandon a notion that beauty reveals itself through a combination of those concepts above? ..
that's it's irrelevant? ...the only relevant thing ,then, is energy of it. ... but ...how do you Render it? ..

..oh.. Basqiat.... wasn't he a part of "row energy" art movement or something?
..gotta see.
..not sure if that's what they meant though.

likbez 101 - continued.. :Transformation of energy:

2007-10-18T05:25:02Z

One form of energy can often be readily transformed into another with the help of a device- for instance, a battery, from chemical energy to electrical energy; a dam: gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy of moving water (and the blades of a turbine) and ultimately to electric energy through an electrical generator. Similarly, in the case of a chemical explosion, chemical potential energy is transformed to kinetic energy and thermal energy in a very short time. Yet another example is that of a pendulum. At its highest points the kinetic energy is zero and the gravitational potential energy is at maximum. At its lowest point the kinetic energy is at maximum and is equal to the decrease of potential energy. If one (unrealistically) assumes that there is no friction, the conversion of energy between these processes is perfect, and the pendulum will continue swinging forever.
Energy can be converted into matter and vice versa. The mass-energy equivalence formula E = mc², derived independently by Albert Einstein and Henri Poincaré,[citation needed] quantifies the relationship between mass and rest energy. Since c2 is extremely large relative to ordinary human scales, the conversion of mass to other forms of energy can liberate tremendous amounts of energy, as can be seen in nuclear reactors and nuclear weapons. Conversely, the mass equivalent of a unit of energy is minuscule, which is why a loss of energy from most systems is difficult to measure by weight, unless the energy loss is very large. Examples of energy transformation into matter (particles) are found in high energy nuclear physics.
In nature, transformations of energy can be fundamentally classed into two kinds: those that are thermodynamically reversible, and those that are thermodynamically irreversible. A reversible process in thermodynamics is one in which no energy is dissipated into empty quantum states available in a volume, from which it cannot be recovered into more concentrated forms (fewer quantum states), without degradation of even more energy. A reversible process is one in which this sort of dissipation does not happen. For example, conversion of energy from one type of potential field to another, is reversible, as in the pendulum system described above. In processes where heat is generated, however, quantum states of lower energy, present as possible exitations in fields between atoms, act as a reservoir for part of the energy, from which it cannot be recovered, in order to be converted with 100% efficiency into other forms of energy. In this case, the energy must partly stay as heat, and cannot be completely recovered as usable energy, except at the price of an increase in some other kind of heat-like increase in disorder in quantum states, in the universe (such as an expansion of matter, or a randomization in a crystal).

As the universe evolves in time, more and more of its energy becomes trapped in irreversible states (i.e., as heat or other kinds of increases in disorder). This has been referred to as the inevitable thermodynamic heat death of the universe. In this heat death the energy of the universe does not change, but the fraction of energy which is available to do work, or be transformed to other usable forms of energy, grows less and less.

Further back:

2007-10-17T16:48:35Z

Galileo Galilei [1564-1642]:

His achievements include the first systematic studies of uniformly accelerated motion, improvements to the telescope and consequent astronomical observations, and support for Copernicanism. Galileo's empirical work was a significant break from the abstract Aristotelian approach of his time.
The motion of uniformly accelerated objects, taught in nearly all high school and introductory college physics courses, was studied by Galileo as the subject of kinematics. His contributions to observational astronomy include the discovery of the four largest satellites of Jupiter, named the Galilean moons in his honour, and the observation and analysis of sunspots. Galileo also worked in applied science and technology, improving compass design.
[Soo...:
In astronomy, the geocentric model of the universe is the disproven theory that the Earth is at the center of the universe and the Sun and other objects go around it. ---> heliocentric is - ...around sun, Duh@!
]
--
Nicolaus Copernicus[1473-1543]:
was the first European astronomer to formulate a scientifically based heliocentric cosmology, and displaced the Earth from its center. His epochal book, De revolutionibus orbium coelestium (On the Revolutions of the Celestial Spheres), is often regarded as the starting point of modern astronomy, as well as a defining epiphany in the history of science.
The major parts of Copernican theory are:

1.Heavenly motions are uniform, eternal, and circular or compounded of several circles (epicycles).
2.The center of the universe is near the Sun.
Around the Sun, in order, are Mercury, Venus, Earth and Moon, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, and the fixed stars.
3.The Earth has three motions: daily rotation, annual revolution, and annual tilting of its axis.
4.Retrograde motion of the planets is explained by the Earth's motion.
5.The distance from the Earth to the sun is small compared to the distance to the stars.

The work itself was then divided into six books:

1.General vision of the heliocentric theory, and a summarized exposition of his idea of the World
2.Mainly theoretical, presents the principles of spherical astronomy and a list of stars (as a basis for the arguments developed in the subsequent books)
3.Mainly dedicated to the apparent motions of the Sun and to related phenomena
4.Description of the Moon and its orbital motions
5.Concrete exposition of the new system
6.Concrete exposition of the new system

---
Early traces of a heliocentric model are found in several anonymous Vedic Sanskrit texts composed in ancient India before the 7th century BCE. Additionally, the Indian astronomer and mathematician Aryabhata[(b. 476 AD – 550, Bihar???!what's that?!)] anticipated elements of Copernicus' work by over a thousand years.

oook.

Soo..

E = the energy equivalent to the mass (in joules)
m = mass (in kilograms)
c = the speed of light in a vacuum (celeritas) (in metres per second).

Huh..!
it IS fascinating, really!
..gotta do some studying while at work to grasp it 'vo vsei svoei krase'... :)
--------------------------------
Soo..:
Albert Einstein [1879-1955]
The concept of mass–energy equivalence unites the concepts of conservation of mass and conservation of energy, allowing rest mass to be converted to forms of active energy (such as kinetic energy, heat, or light) while still retaining mass. Conversely, active energy in the form of kinetic energy or radiation can be converted to particles which have rest mass. The total amount of mass/energy in a closed system (as seen by a single observer) remains constant because energy cannot be created or destroyed and, in all of its forms, trapped energy exhibits mass. In relativity, mass and energy are two forms of the same thing, and neither one appears without the other.
-----------
Sir Isaac Newton [1643-1727]

Newton's laws of motion:

1.An object in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by a net force.
2.Force equals mass multiplied by acceleration.
3.To every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Hmm...
-------
Johannes Kepler [1571-1630]

Kepler's laws of planetary motion are three mathematical laws that describe the motion of planets in the Solar System:

1.The orbit of every planet is an ellipse with the sun at one of the foci. An ellipse is characterized by its two focal points; see illustration. Thus, Kepler rejected the ancient Aristotelean and Ptolemaic and Copernican belief in circular motion.

2.A line joining a planet and the sun sweeps out equal areas during equal intervals of time as the planet travels along its orbit. This means that the planet travels faster while close to the sun and slows down when it is farther from the sun. With his law, Kepler destroyed the Aristotelean astronomical theory that planets have uniform velocity.

3.The squares of the orbital periods of planets are directly proportional to the cubes of the semi-major axes (the "half-length" of the ellipse) of their orbits. This means not only that larger orbits have longer periods, but also that the speed of a planet in a larger orbit is lower than in a smaller orbit.

Ok. So he might be crazy! .. So what! At least, out of all the pseudo-smart men, he's the only one who, i think, is able to grasp things and ideas on the same ..Level.
I gotta start quoting him or something..
..yesterday: In response to my roommate Anya #3, sayin' something about..intense colors, ..:) "Common! The whole universe opens up in front of you, and says.. HellooooooooOOOOoooooooooooOOOOOOOO! ".
...
Shawn is my most guring guru of all times.

Plus, he can actually FIX stuff. ... Hmm. ...Why can't more men be like HIM?!
...WHy can't more ..People ..be like him?
..
world would be a better place..
..a much stranger place, though.. :):):):)

Но цветы не знали, И в четверг завяли.

Астры в школьном цветнике
Поливал Андрейка.
У него была в руке
Голубая лейка,
И текли из лейки
Водяные змейки.

Пусть напьется школьный сад
В жаркую погоду...
-- Стой!-- ребята говорят.--
Как ты носишь воду?

-- Не срамись! -- кричат они,
Сидя на скамейке.--
Не годится в наши дни
Поливать из лейки!

И уже решен вопрос:
Заказали мы насос,
Подали заявки
И сидим на лавке.

-- Что ж, пускай везут насос!--
Говорит Андрейка.
Лейку он в сарай отнес --
Устарела лейка.

Прибыл в пятницу насос,
Но цветы не знали,
Что о них решен вопрос,
И в четверг завяли.

Nenaviju ojidanie. ..Zavyanu k chetvergu.

Beware everyone! Anya is coming out to the streets of New york - with a car. Spasaites' kto mojet!
she won't think twice before running over you. +she's missing out on a few li'lle handy concepts, ...such as differentiating between left and right, looking in the mirrors, and..well..the only reason she got a permit in the first place, was due to way-too-many dumb alcolhol questions. [and she's da expert on those! ]... ...So, if you see a zipcar in a close proximity of you, and me -behind the wheel - ....Run for your life! now i've said it .
