New blog post: “Modernity as Detour: Aby Warburg and the Kyoto School” by Xinyi Wen.

From Warburg’s unrealised Japan trip (1896) to Renaissance astrology in Japan’s modernity debates (1942).

Modernity as Detour: Aby Warburg and the Kyoto School
From a cancelled 1896 voyage to Yokohama to the 1942 “Overcoming Modernity” symposium, Xinyi Wen traces how Warburg’s ideas travelled into twentieth century Japanese debates on modernity.

In Springfield, Ohio, people are preparing in advance of a “large deportation” promised by the president. To all appearances, the city is 2 or 3 days from a federal ethnic cleansing, grounded in a hate campaign organized by the vice-president and American Nazis.

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.

Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.
