Illustration from РАДИО (Radio) magazine, 1962 issue no 8. The text says something like “space repeaters,” I think in relation to radio relays. The orbiting object resembles Sputnik-3, launched in 1958. The specific radio tower by Moscow on the map is the Shukhov tower.

“We’re so often told that art can’t really change anything. But I think it can. It shapes our ethical landscapes; it opens us to the interior lives of others. It is a training ground for possibility.

– Olivia Laing, Funny Weather: Art in an Emergency

“Believe in a love that is being stored up for you like an inheritance, and have faith that in this love there is a strength and a blessing so large that you can travel as far as you wish without having to step outside it.”

— Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet (via podencos)
