and there we are
20th and 21th of various workshops, things and

Never understood the relevance of Victor Horta in
modern architecture.
Anyway, lots of his stuff around the city. To go for
dinner we had to go through the Central Station.Quite a place. Thousand weirdos doing weird
things. And then the travelers and then prof.
Aprile and myself.
The skylight with squared neons was remarking.

Art Basel
Jan Schoonhoven commuted from his hometown of
Delft, in the Netherlands, to The Hague each
weekday, worked until exactly 5, ate dinner with
his wife and then spent his evenings making all-white artworks at the kitchen table. He used white
paint on cardboard or newspaper, in one piece
after another, with only the smallest variations,
day after day. For almost 40 years.

Stanhope Hotel
A Thief Blends in...
This is the odd leaflet I was given when I arrived
to this fancy hotel where I stay. Very curious,
isn'it?
It implies that Bruxelles is a city where nakedpeope with necktie, go around looking for other
naked people (them as well, wearing necktie), to
rob.
A city where thieves use a necktie as a dress code.Also, not so easy. Being the hotel at some 200
meters from the European Parliament, every
person around me is a potential robber.
#mammamia
Luckily, I never wear a necktie (hence they won't
rob me). Still...

I spent three days in Bruxelles, at this EU
conference.
My presentation went very fine, although I am not
really good at this "networking" activity (that is
the main goal of all the people there).
Interesting experience anyway...

"If you define intelligence as the capacity to solve
problems, plants have a lot to teach us," saysStefano Mancuso, dressed in harmonizing shades of
his favorite color: green. "Not only are they 'smart'
in how they grow, adapt and thrive, they do it
without neuroses. Intelligence isn't only about
having a brain."

Bruxelles - Magritte Museum
This I bought, and very I like!
This delightful collection allows everyone to enjoy
firsthand the provocative methods used by theartists and poets of the Surrealist school to break
through conventional thought and behavior to a
deeper truth. Invented and played by such artists
as Andr Breton, Rene Magritte, and Max Ernst,
these gems still produce results ranging from thehilarious to the mysterious and profound.

The Digital World
Transforming the Analog One
If the digital world would make the analog one
disappearing, it would be rather spooky, but surely
easy to manage.
This fact that the digital layers simply overlaps the
analog one, it implies some fair amount of
assorted logistics.
Here above the fancy work done by ms Puri and ms
JeeJee on my pants last night. They kindly added
3 cm to the pocket in my pants (in order to
properly accomodate my minipad thinghy).
Very cool indeed (too bad you can't see the inner
sleeve for the stylus).
Now, I am ready to go...

Gego (This is really
booummboouum!)
The other day, when I posted Constant's Two
Towers, Giulia Bonelliwas kind enough to give me
few links to ms Gertrude Goldschmidt (aka Gego).
What a world opened up to my eyes!
I am very shameful to admit I never knew about
ms Gego and her work.
Here we go!
Gertrude Goldschmidt (1 August 191217
September 1994) also known as Gego, was a
modern Venezuelan artist and sculptor. Gego's
most popular works were produced in the 1960sand 1970s, during the height of popularity of
Geometric abstract art and Kinetic Art. Although
these genres influenced her somewhat, Gego tried
to develop her own style and break from the
popular art of Venezuela.
