Het kan aan mij liggen, maar qua symboliek is het toch enorm vreemd dat we onze stembiljetten in een kliko staan te gooien?

Vor einem Jahr erschien "Wut und Wertung. Warum wir über Geschmack streiten". Seitdem habe ich mit dem Buch viele schöne Erfahrungen gemacht. Ich denke/hoffe, das Thema ist nach wie vor aktuell.

Zum Anlass des Jubiläums verlose ich zwei signierte Exemplare.

Zum Mitmachen den Post teilen.

Just wrote down in about 800 words what my PhD thesis is about from start to finish, what I am doing in each chapter, and suddenly it all connected and made sense. I have the feeling this is finally getting somewhere.

In der Promotion fand ich Schreiben oft quälend, hab mit jeder Formulierung gekämpft & gehadert. Das hat sich inzwischen zum Glück verändert — v.a. durch Schreibkollaborationen, die das Zutrauen in mein Schreiben gestärkt haben, & durch Routine. Was ich daraus gelernt hab: Heute in #ArbeitInDerWiss!
Weiter im Text: Vom Schreiben inner- und außerhalb der Wissenschaft
Der beste Text ist einer, der gut genug ist, um fertig zu sein.

Am 29. März 1927 traf Kasimir Malewitsch in Berlin ein, um seine Sonderausstellung in der Großen Berliner Kunstausstellung vorzubereiten. Er blieb mehrere Wochen, anschließend fuhr er zum Bauhaus Dessau.
In Berlin wurde ab Mai u. a. sein Gemälde "Frau an einer Straßenbahnhaltestelle" gezeigt.

Lief netwerk, onlangs heb ik gehoord dat mijn huisbaas het pand gaat verkopen. Ik ben dus op zoek naar een huurappartement in de regio Leiden. Bij voorkeur ca. 40 m2, huur max. €1500 per maand. Alle tips heel erg welkom!

The grande finale! Today we're looking at the Canon in D Major by Johann Pachelbel, who (unknowingly) laid the basis for what seems to be half of the pop music songs. So let's go!

The Hungarian Dance No. 5 by Brahms is not only suitable to dance on, as Charlie Chaplin demonstrates in a scene in The Great Dictator: you might as well shave a customer to its melody.

The fifth symphony by Beethoven is famous, but in this particular cartoon the Pink Panther prefers a slightly more modern piece of music and tries everything to make the orchestra play it...

George Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue was composed in 1924 and literally went skyhigh; since 1980, United Airlines has been using it as a sort of signature song - including in their safety videos.
