“The Older I Get, The More Intense Is My Interest In The Various Ways And Forms In Which Light Appears

“The older I get, the more intense is my interest in the various ways and forms in which light appears in nature. I am amazed, I learn from that, and I am aware that it is the light of the sun that illuminates the buildings I envision. I hold spaces, materials, textures, colors, surfaces, and shapes up to the light of the sun; I capture this light, reflect it, filter it, screen it off; I thin it out to create a luster in the right spot. Light as an agent, I’m familiar with it. But when I really start thinking about it, I understand hardly anything.”

— Peter Zumthor, Thinking Architecture

Welcome to Disneyland!

I don’t know what community the owners of Tumblr think they’re protecting, but mine does not exclude erotica (AKA « adult content »). This change is yet more evidence that the owners of this and other platforms are in fact publishers and should be held to account for their content. (I’m looking at you, Facebook.)

My Australian Muse and I are reading the words of you and sealanehill to each other. She stops and says, "Oh Adam, I think they're like us". I don't really have anything to ask, but I think it's worth saying.

aww <3 thank you for that.

Well, I am learning a lot from @sealanehill and it’s a friendship I enjoy.There is much musing involved, sure :P

tea leaf

the leaves of tea at the bottom of the cup, reveal patterns, a makebelieve story of us, images swirl rinsed with tea, familiar, fragrant a horde of fragile memories, delicate as the porcelain of my moods, and a heart lost in a million thoughts of you.
