VITRINES : Art Spaces/interiors/interventions. 3 by Russell Moreton Via Flickr: Anselm Kiefer : In the Annenberg Courtyard Velimir Khlebnikov: Fates of Nations: The New Theory of War Anselm Kiefer often dedicates his works to intriguing figures of the past, be they poets or philosophers. This piece is one of a number of works emerging from Kiefer’s ongoing exploration of the Russian Futurist avant-garde writer, theorist and absurdist Velimir Khlebnikov (1885-1922). After years of study, Khlebnikov concluded that a major sea battle took place every 317 years, or multiples thereof. Kiefer celebrates this heroic and ludicrous activity with a work that is both monument and anti-monument. Measuring almost 17 metres in total and consisting of two large glass vitrines, Kiefer creates a transparent, reflective sea-scape in three dimensions that calls to mind the Romantic sublime of painters from JMW Turner to Caspar David Friedrich. Kiefer uses the frames of the vitrines to stage a mysterious drama, in which viewers, seeing each other and their own reflections, become participants. www.royalacademy.org.uk/article/kiefer-and-chipperfield-t...

International Conference on English Literature and Linguistics.

Language is at a nexus of interrelationships between individuals, society and culture. The interface between language and literature has been the object of considerable interdisciplinary research on methods of analysis that can be applied across the two fields and their sub-areas. Less research has focused, however, on the influence of the new technologies on this interface, which transcends borders and cultures, advanced visualization along with the process of translation adds additional dimensions to the already complex picture. As the technological landscape continues to evolve, ideas related through literature, other modes of artistic expression and language are part of that which is being researched through the Digital Humanities. Understanding culture, diversity and inclusion through technology and discussing ways to support the creative research being conducted adds even more unique complexity to our evolving conference themes. This event will be organized by Universal Research Cluster at the city of New York, New York, USA.

Conference Details: International Conference on English Literature and Linguistics, on 17th Jul 2024 at New York, New York, USA .

One random thing that I love is the tireless effort of birders/ornithologists to try and phonetically render all the bird calls into text in an accurate manner. I am so bad at processing sounds that I could literally never do this. Like how many times would you have to listen to that bird call before deciding which letters to place in what order??

I have been challenging myself to listen to a bird call, try and write down my translation, then look up the accepted birder one to compare… let’s just say I am not fluent in bird

#birding #phonetics #birds #animals #biology #auditory processing is a real problem for me these phonetic translations do not help me at all lol #super cool stuff though #if you try this please share it I bet some of y’all are good #bird game

Is this a gorgeous and beautifully drawn webcomic or gorgeous and beautifully drawn art only?

Art only I'm afraid ´v`'

I love comics as an artform and I wish I could create one about these dogs, but making comics is hard work. It's extremely time consuming and artistically challenging and I just don't think I have what it takes to branch out into that right now.

#answered #hpinthevain #if only I could clone myself #I've done short comics but those were like 10 pages at most and even then they felt like a massive undertaking #I have friends and mutuals with ongoing webcomics and I have no idea how they do it without getting burnt out or artblocked #maybe there's something in the way I draw that makes it translate poorly to comic making #like could my process be really inefficient or something

So you guys have just been coping with this since 2019. Okay.

#yugioh vrains #ygo vrains #vrains #'now i understand that definition. i loved you.' OKAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #i need to go back and listen again but i'm like 95% sure that the word that gets translated as 'people' can also mean 'someone' #ai means to love someone. i loved you. #vrains spoilers I GUESS? SORRY I KNOW THERE ARE PEOPLE FOLLOWING ME WHO HAVENT WATCHED VRAINS #BUT IT'S ALSO BEEN OUT FOR 4 YEARS. IDK. #i've been steadily processing this for the past three days straight. i admittedly wasn't crazy about vrains' last season but good lord #i didn't expect the finale to grab me and shake me violently about like that. you guys really live like this?

[sanguith]

I have a question I need asked:

And please, if you want to, type in the tags or replies if reading numbers is important to mentally understand what time it is OR if seeing a "picture" of the time is required to mentally understand what time it is (i'm hoping this makes sense)

#i need answers for personal closure #for me? analogue #and there is NO difference between analogue with numbers or analogue without numbers #because the analogue clock provides an ''image''. 02:15 is an image. it is already instantly appearing in my head because i am seeing it #whereas 02:15 on a digital watch needs mental effort on my part to translate the numbers into the image of an analogue clock #does this make sense?? #i am *very* dependent on visual imagery to process information #but i've asked others and they describe the complete opposite

[moonpaw]

more cats!

and uhhhhh this thing

#one piece #sanji #roronoa zoro #nami #nico robin #my art #ok hear me out. #my thought process was ''oh i bet sanji would shave his hands to keep the food sanitary!'' #but then i remembered his hairy legs in canon #and it's hard to translate that if his legs had fur #so um #he's a freak now. sorry

From Roier's 02/22/2024 VOD

TRANSLATION (source: a bit of reading english twt update accounts, bit of my own translating, please correct me on anything)

Cucurucho: What is your biggest accomplishment on the island?

Roier: What did he say?

Missa: He asked how big is your dick?

Roier: No mames. Sleeping 2cm, erected 3cm. (Richarlyson starts hitting him) What's going on? Why's he hitting me?

Missa: He said that he hasn't accomplished anything. He is a loser at this game.

Roier: Hey, what does that mean, dumbass?! What did you say?

[bc there was a bit of talk on the dash about cubitos being mischaracterized bc of language barriers/viewers only sticking to POV(s) in their own language, I wanted to bring up a clip of one of my favorite cubitos that I haven't seen on tumblr before which, wtf how, it fucking kills me every time! seriously love it, it's but one example of q!Missa being a Little Shit.]

#qsmp #qsmp clips #missasinfonia #roier #i wanted to post this last night but i passed out pffft #also pls let me know not just of any translation errors but if i should translate the slang like no mames? #bc of how many ways it can be interpreted i wasn't sure and since many non-spanish cc's/fans use the term as well #I just... kept it as is #i wish i could do translations more but i have SUCH bad auditory processing DX

We're all familiar with how most of the Star Trek shows have their dialogue in that somewhat formal stilted manner that plenty of people have poked fun at but also it kind of makes sense in an era of universal translators that people would make a habit of speaking clearly and avoiding slang/metaphors to ensure their points are well translated. I know that was never the intention (and a lot of newer trek shows go for more informal dialogue) but hm. Food for thought.

#like in my (brief) time of giving lectures and formal presentations i would default on clear formal speech to be the most clear #especially for people who have english as a second language #like its very possible that the years of using universal translators for everything just affected peoples' speech processes #(they should still be allowed to swear though) #i have way too many thoughts on the concept of a universal translator and how it functionally works #star trek writers accidentally canonized chompskyist universal grammar. thousands of linguists outraged. #tbh i prefer dw's universal translator better because somehow telepathy is a little more believable than magical mechanical translation #for languages youre just encountering #but its star trek's rules of magic so it gets a pass #star trek #headcanons #my posts

"Non paeniteo potitus."

+ details & process

And, process !!

The jump btwn the second to last and last always surprise me whenever I make one of these because I always forget to take snapshots after I start painting. It's always like: oh yeah heres the lineart with some colors- BOOM fully finished✨️

What he's holding are the Austrian imperial scepter and orb, seen below:

I was going to draw the crown too but decided I don't hate myself that much(maybe some other day), and gave him a golden laurel crown, bcs I'm obsessed with that as a motif, and also its very remincient of the boy king statue that started this whole thing!

There's some symbolism of this, both intentionally but also just historically. I love that the orb represents that the monarch is holding the world in their hand, basically every old monarchy has one of those, and I think it's very cool for symbolism. But also bcs of that, I was forced to basically draw catholic fanart so, you win some you lose some. The star halo above him head is both to reference those religious statues with star crowns(I saw them a lot in Europe and they imprinted onto my brain), as well as: his four championships of course!

#TL: 'I don't apologize for winning' 🤭🤭🤭 #^ was gonna find some old latin quote to put but was like. oh yeah of course !!! #noy sure if its entirely correct. kinda wanted to email my hs latin teacher to ask but i finished this too late at night #anyways please dont let this flop SKDKLGLVLV #im really proud of it okah 😭😭😭 it was actually so much fun and enjoyable and nice etc dtc #i questioned to myself earlier abt why my chibi art always gets more notes than my detailed art #and i realized. like unless youve been following the lore of my blog. this isnt even recognizable as f1 fanart SJFKLVLV #but thats okay because its my niche brainrot au and i will do what i want >:) #the hair and the relics are def my proudest part of this #i mentioned before but i have trouble yknow translating irl stuff or complicated stuff into drawing #but all of this came really smoothly to me in a very unexpected way #god his hair is just sooooo its ssoooooooo!!!!!!!!! i wanna pet him 🥹 #but i think it def helped that i kept posting the process on my close friends #and my two irl friends(as well as some friends on here! ty!!) encouraged me a lot abt it so :D #but anyways yep pls take my brainrot art 🙏🙏 it took me 13+ hours in the span of like 3 days basically #f1 #formula 1 #sebastian vettel #catie.art. #boy king au

[wisteria-lodge]

so the thing about the sloppy hp worldbuilding is that it often does something interesting by accident

today's case study: the Malfoy family motto.

(it seems to have been a piece of production design set dressing, but they ran all that kind of stuff by JKR, and I see this frickin motto quoted everywhere.) anyway.

SANCTIMONIA VINCET SEMPER

This is always translated as "Purity Always Conquers." And I'm guessing that the idea is that the "pure" part is supposed to refer to y'know "pure blood." But like - "sanctimonia" just doesn't mean that. The Romans didn't have a concept of blood purity - so long as the family *name* continued, you were good. Adult adoption for political reasons was as common as marriage for political reasons. Adopting slaves was a thing... whatever.

If JKR had actually want to translate the "pure blood" concept into latin, the better choice would have been something like "eugenium vincet semper" or "the well born/good quality always conquers." Also the word makes you think of it's reflex "eugenics," which I guess is supposed to be the point.

What "sanctimonia" actually means is pure in the sense of chaste/virtuous/sacred. So okay. "Chastity always conquers," doesn't make sense as a family motto." "Virtue always conquers" ... I guess that could be meant ironically? And "The sacred always conquers," requires a little bit of thinking about, because the wizards in HP are pretty darn areligious.

So okay. I'll do "sacred" in the latin sense of "set apart, not of the ordinary world." in which case... the better translation would be something like "The Self-Contained Always Conquer" ???

which is honestly a *REALLY* interesting motto, and for the Malfoys specifically.
