matryoshka


xkcd hasn't been maintaining its standards, but here's a peek into the nanoscale world...

when i first read 'never make a layout of the area you're in' i thought it sounded really similar to what that juno girl (ellen page) was told in 'inception'.

the sweet hereafter


i have grown very excited about the new album from jesse sykes and her swell crew, called 'marble son'.


they play in stuttgart on 30 april. hmmmmm... this might make up for my missing eric bibb, rodrigo y gabriela, vienna teng...

one little step at a time.

this song made me ridiculously and disproportionately happy this evening. 

the littlest birds sing the prettiest songs.

little wing by jimi and stevie.

i think i've found out why i don't enjoy clapton's style of soloing, especially live. it's got no sense of direction, as though it's rooted firmly to the same spot. little wing's solo is travelling, it's on the move... and it doesn't really matter where it's heading really.

in fact, get a little lost.

and celebrate the little victories, however little they may be.

turn turn turn

we might learn, learn.
