A fleeting taste of damnation in Mozart’s comic(!) opera Don Giovanni. Performed tonight at ROH. In colour ;)

Valley Girl (1983) might be cheesy as fuck, but doesn’t that print remind you of something?

Went to the opening of the Dries van Noten / James Reeve exhibition yesterday, where you can see the actual pictures Dries used as prints on his current womenswear collection.
On til January 26th.

JOYCE GALLERY
168 – 173 Galerie de Valois
75001 Paris
France

Axes
After whose stroke the wood rings,
And the echoes!
Echoes traveling
Off from the center like horses.

The sap
Wells like tears, like the
Water striving
To re-establish its mirror
Over the rock

That drops and turns,
A white skull,
Eaten by weedy greens.
Years later I
Encounter them on the road----

Words dry and riderless,
The indefatigable hoof-taps.
While
From the bottom of the pool, fixed stars
Govern a life.

By Sylvia Plath

In 1973, France decided to celebrate Jean-Michel Jarre as the embodiment of national electronic music at the detriment of Igor Wakhevitch, who was too much of a satanist. Last Friday, Standard and Poor’s finally decided to downgrade France’s credit note.

No offense to Jarre’s fans but I see an evident causal relationship here.
