NIGHT'S DAUGHTER (1986)
Acrylic on Watercolor Board - 36" x 24"
If I don't take the time to keep notes during the creation of a painting, I often forget the meaning of symbolism in it. 1/4

Stop what you’re doing and watch this immediately.
Canadian doctors returned from Gaza and are sharing what they witnessed and lived.
They are demanding action from Mark Carney.
Their testimony is our failure.

Vital point here. The frames of political discourse — which are shaped by the structure of the info environment and by both strategic & organic communication — shape how people interpret their own experiences. We're not dealing with a problem of bad "facts" ... but one of corrupted sensemaking.
What many of us warned, & what is unavoidably clear now, is that there is no privileged sphere of "real life" that is sheltered, separate from the information environment. It's narratives all the way down -- even to the point that they shape *how people experience their own material circumstances*.

Jeune fille de profil (1899) by Lucien-Victor Guirand de Scévola (French artist, lived 1871-1950). The poised beauty of a young woman in profile. Ethereal + timeless.

Cumbrian postman, 'Old Cooper' who walked from Kirkby Stephen to The Thrang and back, six days a week (and on three days extended to Aisgill Moor). It is said he had strong views on many subjects "which he freely offered to the valley residents as he delivered the post". I bet!

I had to do an errand,
Had to pick a peck of Snide
In a dark and gloomy Snide-field
That was almost nine miles wide.
