Pretty sure all these #AI guys have utterly misconstrued what art is. They think it's just information/data, but it's not: it's a process; it's a manifestation of interwoven conscious & unconscious thoughts that have ripened in a human mind, sometimes for decades. And the result is an interaction with another human mind, a dialogue. 1/2

I've never been interested in stamps... but then I saw this new Swiss CHF 1.10 stamp.

It's not just a photographic reproduction: "To give the concrete wall depicted in the design a tactile dimension, cement pigments were added to the ultra-matt finish."

I think I'll pop out later and buy a few.

Switzerland continues to have a history of great #graphicdesign!

I saw a documentary and in it many US professing evangelicals didn't know much about the bible's contents or the faith when interviewed. Political/cultural/class Christians perhaps, rather than genuinely religious.

Today, we're having people over. They will be the first humans over our threshold since 2019. Yes, the pandemic played its part, but I was also hermitish before then. It's going to be an autistic overload. Thank god for the additional #ADHD, which takes over in such situations (perhaps too much sometimes?)

When the #autism gains the upper hand I've been known to slip away or even fall asleep on the spot. When the ADHD gains control I can become far too exuberant.
