Month: October 2013

I’ve posted pictures before of Bleecker doing this. It makes no sense. Why lean over, with this gap, and put your head on the radiator like that? I know there’s the warmth, but still. That can’t be comfortable!! You cute little thing.

I’m thinking I might walk around taking pictures today. I saw on Facebook that the Tardis is back on Perry Street. Wait a minute. I walked down Perry Street last night, the Tardis wasn’t there. Was that an old picture? Did it go up early this morning?

Back story: For the past two years, someone decorates the front of their building to look like the Tardis crashed into it. Best decoration EVER.

I took this last night. The scariest thing about this decorated door …

Him. He looks freaking real.

Wait. It’s October 25th. Why am I seeing so few Halloween decorations this year? Usually I see them everywhere, but I only just starting seeing them yesterday, and only a few here and there. Where is everyone’s Halloween spirit??

Maybe I need to walk around more, and explore.

Instead of work.

Cynthia Rowley’s window on Bleecker Street. Love the iridescent colors. And the spiders.

I read this piece in the BBC News yesterday about Dr. David Creese of the University of Newcastle, and Armand D’Angour, a musician and tutor in classics at Oxford University, who are recreating music from thousands of years ago. You can read about it here, and listen to Creese sing one of the pieces. Creese’s singing skills are endearingly voice-next-door.

This reminded of a 3,400 year old song that was found in Syria in the 1950’s. It was also recreated a few years ago. I listened to it and parts of it sound exactly like the Christmas carol God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen. Found it! Please listen to it. I still hear God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen.

This is choir 5 from the Forty Part Motet piece up at the Cloisters right now.
