I didn’t take pictures of the paintings but here’s the station clock and the sole surviving breakfast room interior by Alexandre Charpentier from 1900

musée d’Orsay also has an amazing collection of impressionist art. Including Suerat, Monet, Manet, etc and of course, van Gough. A shame so much of this work is now behind glass so hiding the vibrancy of the brushwork.
The museum is in an incredible former railway station and well worth a visit!

Musée d’Orsay Paris. One of the few galleries where you can sit on some of the art! Tokujin Yoshioka 2002. Optical glass and stainless steel.

They have a nice HPC computer museum as well. One of the earliest I remember fondly from the 1990s. A Convex vector processor…

Not so sure about these things, but why not have two if you are going quantum computing…. Very pretty machines though, nicely paired with a laptop.

After my post of crocuses on campus, here are snowdrops in the garden this sunny Sunday afternoon…. #dundee #scotland

It’s time for my annual crocuses on the University of Dundee (Scotland, UK) campus!

Opposite the tennis courts in case anyone local wants to go and take a look!

Amidst all the doom there are simple things in life like providing a lap for the elderly Sylvie while eating breakfast. Sorry Sylvie no fish today…and I have to go to work now!
