Weil ich gerade eine gut gelungene MENSCHLICHE Übersetzung lektorieren darf, kleiner Thread zum Offensichtlichen:
Es ist ein spürbarer Unterschied, ob man einen menschlich oder maschinell übersetzten Text lektoriert.
Ich hatte letztes Jahr ein mit DeepL übersetztes Sachbuch auf dem Tisch. (1/10)

Btw, similar things could be said about the films portrayal of Jazz as a weapon in the Cold War. It's more ambivalent about that, but Conover for example is a more interesting figure than "let's promote Jazz to undermin Russians"; Armstrong also always seems to me to get a bad rap vs. later radicals
I feel like I should write something about Grimonprez' formally masterful documentary, which it seems to me continues to push a version of Lumumba's murder that was established by Ludo de Witte and popularised by Raoul Peck; namely, one that underplays Lumumbas own tactical and political errors,

This is so dark.
People on TikTok are reporting ICE raids happening in small cities in various states.
To get past algorithmic censorship, they’re writing down the information on paper and holding up and shuffling through the handwritten signs as they talk about pretend subjects like shopping, food, and animals.

I know Bluesky's not great for long threads, but today I feel compelled to do an Olympics-art history thread. So then, what do recent news reports about Olympic athletes getting sick have to do with an Impressionist painting by Édouard Manet? Both are connected to the Seine as a polluted river

Still thinking about this comic ... I was a huge C&G fan as a student, now I’m a middle-aged critical theory nerd who keeps going on about art & the means of production & better futures and yeah I’m more and more disillusioned about the contribution of digital practices to the latter – thread 🧵 1/14

It’s an interesting phenomenon how most times the real jobs of figures like the Weimar Classics guys still magically disappear when we’re talking about them. Herder held the function of Prediger at St. Peter & Paul, and was as Generalsuperintendent responsible for running the Protestant Church in
The City Church of St. Peter and Paul in Weimar hosts the beautiful altar by Lucas Cranach the Younger from the mid-1550s, inspired by the ideas of the Reformation. In front of the church is a statue of the philosopher, theologian and poet Johann Gottfried Herder (1744-1803).
