pier 40. on a cloudy day in july

In the offing the sea and the sky were welded together without a joint, and in the luminous space the tanned sails of the barges drifting up with the tide seemed to stand still in red clusters of canvas sharply peaked, with gleams of varnished sprits.  A haze rested on the low shores that ran out to sea in vanishing flatness.  The air was dark above Gravesend, and farther back still seemed condensed into a mournful gloom, brooding motionless over the biggest, and the greatest, town on earth.
_Joseph Conrad, "Heart of Darkness"

The quality that we call beauty, however, must always grow from the realities of life, and our ancestors, forced to live in dark rooms, presently came to discover beauty in shodows, untimately to guide shoadows towards beaty's ends.
 And so it has come to be that beauty of a Japanese room depends on a variation of shodows, heavy shadows against light shadows-it has nothing else. ... Ot beyond the sitting room, which the rays of the sun can at best but barely reacg, we extend the eaves or build on a veranda, putting the sunlight at still greater a remove. The light from the garden steals in but dimly through paper-paneled doors, and it is precisely this indirect light that make s for us the charm of a room.
 _Jun'ichiro Tanizaki, "In Praise of Shadows"

governors island. rainy day in july 2010

exploring is fun. bike riding is fun. 

ergo exploring on a bike is super fun.

and this just made me really happy:
"I think the thing I like most about the HI picture 
is that it reminds me of those pictures of the moon's 
surface where you can see the blackness of space in 
the background and then there's the blue-green earth
except here it's a blue-green HI." -A. Kirby

Upper Peninsula, MI


A walk through a forest is invigorating and healing due to the constant interaction of all sense modalities; Bachelard speaks of 'the polyphony of the senses'. The eye collaborates with the body and the other senses. One's sense of reality is strengthened and articulated by this constant interaction. Architecture is essentially an extension of the nature into the man-made realm, providing the ground for perception and the horizon of experiencing and understanding the world. It is not an isolated and self-sufficient artifact; it directs our attention and existential experience to wider horizons. 

_Juhani Pallasmaa, "the Eyes of the Skin"
