For Now



I spent all of my blogging energy points on holiday letter writing today. Which is a shame, because it was an epic Thanksgiving-time, and I have several things to share. For today, I will start by suggesting you watch this video. Also visit the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art in Kansas City, if you ever get the chance.

This isn't actually the video I saw there, an excerpt from that video can be found here. Unfortunately, I don't think the excerpt gives the actual video complete justice. I was fascinated to see a video as a display in a museum, with it's own little plaque and everything. It consisted mostly of various shots of a man playing an Argentinian tango on the accordion, and dancers. It was enchanting. Here's more information about that.

I couldn't help but be reminded of Anne Carson. A writer I pretty much adore all around.

Enjoy!

  1. I'm so glad to have a new post to read. I feel so bad we did not have much time for visiting when you were here. And maybe, just maybe, we are both a little on the shy side.
