a little dramatic; i was bored at the time.

let's try again:

Sotthi: nothing published (or publishable... or sent to the like). I enjoy writing though. Sorta discursive non-fiction; hypotheses on the everyday cosmos. ;-)
And 'verse' of course, when I'm in the mood - I wouldn't go so far as to call it poetry - more 'non-prose'.

Solidred, thanks.

I didn't come across any verse.
I note you are a composer too? What's the experience like shifting between music and composing forms in architecture?

I think Scarlatti was overshadowed by the other two giants Bach and Handel.

Domenico's just so *human* though... his sonatas are just like characters in a soap opera: he seems to get real angry at one point, but a kind of beautiful anger. One of Bach's partitias for solo violin is in a league of its own, though and the build-up to Handel's 'Zadok the Priest' is awesome.
'Composer' is maybe stretching things a bit. It's just that I was studying History of Music at the time so it was my stuff was written as notes on a stave rather than me being 'in a band'. It sort of veered between nursery-rhyme kitsch and oodly electronica. And yeah, I ultimately draw little distinction between music and architecture: both are structurally similar, with music more emotionally eloquent and architecture is placed differently in 'space' but, um... will end up talking sh**te so I'll stop there ;-)

(btw, I keep verse very privat, coz people would laugh and it's delicate. You don't understand! You don't understand! I'd have to wail in its defence and it ain't worth the humiliating grief...)

Domenico's sonatas exude a saturnine air, sometimes warm, sometimes melancholic [k.11, 32, etc.]; not as heavy as Dowland though.
A colleague of mine once remarked to me, studying the history of Music is likely to make one very philosophical! kind of like studying the history of time, an aporia. I think there's some truth to that. 'Hypotheses on the everyday cosmos' is a very telling symptom!...
And did you say delicate verse and humiliation? oh oh, then with malicious joy, I have to press you for one!

Only kidding. lol

Am on travel, catch up later here. Thanks for sharing.

I suppose I would've preferred the Renaissance, when the word 'dilettante' wasn't an insult, heh. 'Aporia' I had to look up ;-)
Curiosity / a delight in the unknown / an addictive-compulsive 'world is not enough' syndrome probably gets me places I shouldn't but also to the discovery of 'Premier Accordion Band Goes Hawaii'.

i agree most mysterious and anonymous archinectos are eye candy.

Here's how I looked last night...



Whatsamaddawitchew? You don like my handlebah mustache?

I figured the holidays are a good time to experiment with eyeliner (it's a bugger to wash off...)

And here's to Lebanon returning to its former status as the Monte Carlo of the middle east sometime soon, aphro_al :-)

is it just me or are archinects wordsmiths..?

for aphro_al

solidred...busting out the Prince... :)

AP you're a real gentleman

speaking of gentlemen...

Not to break a good joke, but looking for gentlemen among architects ,be advised if is a "Sir." then do not see this as a gurantie for a gentleman . With some quite the opposite.

you've got a purty mouth, vado.

(thanks farmer...every inch a gentleman)

whoo hoo vado! What color lipstick is that??

this is my excuse to show myriam how long my beard is getting...

mmmmm

just a few more years and salty tears and you'll be there, m'boy

a boy can only dream...

that is, by the way, quite some impressive facial hair length. The moustache alone is a thing to be reckoned with.

So, when are you moving to Chicago, huh? huh?

I just remembered what mdler looks like.

aphro_al, you are super hot, i mean SUPER HOT.

@ the draft this year. That's a '98 NFC Championship ring.

"Tha's the ring you get for losing the Super Bowl"

i'm sure this won't work...

¡Viva El Urbanismo Nuevo!

ya Smoke!

lykønskningen! held og lykke!

I went to the NFL draft this year. After about 10 1/2 hours, we ran into a guy who worked for the Falcons who was wearing the ring. I asked to see it.

Go Cowboys!

200!!!!!!!

Crushin shit

Darkness! great hat prolly.

no...okay...

thanks tw, that actually IS the way i did it those times it came up completely blank (as in the do-dee-do post - below that i had used the bracketed img command as shown below the post-it box)!

i'm thinking maybe there's something wrong with the flickr image that i'm trying to use...

thanks for the help t'weed...
