Some beautiful artwork: Dream Anatomy. I love these early anatomical drawings, where the artist never knew whether to be 100% accurate, or sacrifice some accuracy for artistic beauty. As it is, they’re still more anatomy than art, and some prove just how beautiful the human body is under it’s skin.

Christmas lights in Glasgow, just outside the Museum of Modern Art. At night, they look like a sea of stars above one’s head; when they ripple, it’s like being underwater, and the stars are bobbing on the surface.

Interesting typographic thing: Alphabet26. A remodelled alphabet, with a single case, using a mixture of suitable upper and lowercase characters to avoid confusion. Surprisingly pretty, but I’m not sure I’d get used to it for everyday use…

I, too, had a similar experience to this. At least they apologised, but it’s a bit weak to not only get spam, but spam apologising for spam you can’t read when you don’t have a phone capable of displaying photos.
Hold the line.

Time appears to be catching up with me already. Today, I gave a talk to some final-year-sixthformers about the Cambridge interview process. They’ll be being interviewed in mid-December. It doesn’t seem so long ago (even if it was four years ago) that I was interviewed by my future Director of Studies. I can still remember it very clearly, and passed on any advice that I could.
Tomorrow, I’m off for a weekend to Cambridge, because one of my best friends from home is having a shindig because he’s engaged.
Engaged.
Not taking calls. . Suddenly, rather than the horror that is University seeming to be coming to a crashing end, all around me, everything seems to be about to explode into life. Which is all very good indeed. The chance to catch up with old friends and the like is also an added bonus, which I shall not be passing up.

Best. Flash. Game. Ever. Play the tutorial, then experiment. It is brilliant.
