“In the morning, the sleeper has found rest on the bottom of the river. The force of the stream has opened the door and is leading you on. Above your body, people are still alive. Follow the river as days go by. Head for the ocean that mirrors the sky. You want to wake up to free yourself of the image of Europa. But it is not possible.”

“You should meet this guy with the SIO. He's sort of this kind of social entrepreneur thinking outside of the box in the sustainability space and working on these ideas around sort of web-based social media, and he's in a round two capital raise in the VP space with the people at SVNP.”

Ein oder zwei Sachen hab’ ich ’mal wieder über mich selbst gelernt, als Zuschauer des Films »Eine Insel namens Udo«. Jedenfalls sehr gelacht über die kauzige Fritzi und den kauzigen Kurt – allerdings als einziger im Kinosaal. (Oder?)

vinay gupta: “we can’t have nice things because hakim bey and the pope will molest your children.”

in related events, i partially watched christoph roehl’s documentary “wir sind nicht die einzigen” about the child abuse scandal at the german odenwaldschule.

it left marks in my soul and the firm conviction that there is a pattern here: progressive humanism in disguise – whether you might think you’re good or bad, you might be ugly, anyway.

disappointing to read names of people in this regard who i believed – only from a shallow point of view, i admit – to have some integrity, like weizsäcker and dönhoff, but in the end they also just belonged to a protestant mafia helping to cover up a system of pedophile crime.

the revolution will not be humanized.

„ [...] Im Moment träume ich von Wien, der Stadt, in der ich geboren bin und aus der ich als Kind vertrieben wurde. Ich bin dort in diesem Jahr Ehrenbürger geworden, ein bittersüßer Moment. Ich träume davon, dass Österreich seine Vergangenheit aufarbeitet. Die Integrität und Offenheit, mit der Deutschland die Hitler-Zeit untersucht und eine Demokratie geformt hat, ist vorbildlich. Von solcher Transparenz ist in Österreich nichts zu spüren. Ich träume von Wissenschaftlern, besonders von jungen jüdischen Wissenschaftlern, die wieder nach Wien kommen. Dass die Universität von Wien, die moralische Instanz, an einem Teil der Ringstraße liegt, die nach dem Antisemiten Karl Lueger benannt wurde, ist nicht zu akzeptieren. Dieser ehemalige Wiener Bürgermeister hat Hitler erst gezeigt, dass man mit Antisemitismus Wahlen gewinnen kann. Es ging so viel verloren. Ich wünsche mir den Wiederaufbau einer jüdischen Gesellschaft in Wien. Meinetwegen nennen Sie das meschugge.“
— Eric Kandel, year 2000 Nobel Prize recipient in Physiology or Medicine.

the rise of the mathemusicians.

i don’t know what pi sounds like for michael blake as there are some copyright infringement claims taking down his video repeatedly, but obviously there is no such copyright for tau and i think the tune is splendid:

(pi is wrong, anyway.)

and of course, i recommend all videos of vi hart. she is gorgeous and talks way too fast for me – which just keeps me even more astounded.
