Notes

Interesting and/or cool stuff I've come across from art, design, technology, photography, movies I've watched and liked and, occasionally, my thoughts.

"Fish Market in Moonlight" (1841) by Petrus van Schendel, or "Monsieur Chandelle", a Dutch-Belgian master who specialised in painting nighttime (market) scenes lit by candles and the moon.

"The Sleeping Muse" by Constantin Brâncuși, 1910

"Moonstone" book cover illustration by Owen Gent

This is a fragment of Chroma III, an alien-looking torus knot comprised of scintillating polymer cells, that seems to be breathing, by Seoul-based artist Yunchul Kim. Make sure you watch the video, and of course explore his other works.
