there was a controlled burn the other week in the native priarie preserve in Horner Park. I love how the raceway on this powerline was scorched by the fire, and the way the graffiti blends with the marks now.
and some other things I saw
a particularly bountiful redux friday : )

For Socrates, leisure (trad. σχολή, or scholē) did not connote indulgence or laziness, rather it referred to a consistent plane of generative free time: a ritualistic incubation of one’s own knowledge. We see leisure and learning as two oars on the same boat, and within loisirs distribués attempt the generalized and consistent distribution of a sonic σχολή.
