A New Interpretation of a Radiohead Classic
JM sent this clip of Postmodern Jukebox (he knows I’m a big fan) performing “Creep,” featuring Effie Passero (who I’d never heard before) putting out a unique and somewhat more theatrical interpretation of this great classic.
Sweet!

“A Central American Paradise with Surfing, Hiking, and Farm-to-Table Cuisine”
Another positive magazine review of our resort in Nicaragua. After 40 years of earning a living by publishing ideas, it gives me great pleasure to have built something in brick and mortar that gives so much pleasure to so many people. Click here.
The Mind-Blowing Scale of the Milky Way
This is very cool!
I first ran into this guy, who goes by the name Epic Spaceman, in this video, where he explains the scale of the Milky Way by shrinking himself down to the size of an atom.

I haven’t checked to verify this because I want to believe it’s true.
Wow!

More About the Exhibition of My Art Collection at the Cornell Art Museum…
In last week’s Postscript, I mentioned that the Cornell Art Museum here in Delray Beach is exhibiting a large part of my collection of Central American modern art. Scheduled to close July 28, the exhibit has now been extended through August.

After 30 Years, I Get to See My Art Collection… and It Looks Good!
The Cornell Art Museum in Delray Beach, FL, is exhibiting a good portion of the collection of Central American modern art that, with Suzanne Snyder, I’ve been assembling for nearly 30 years. Over that time, I’ve only seen it in small parts on the halls of my homes and offices. Seeing so many pieces (96) in one place was a rewarding experience. I was almost shocked by how strong it felt.
Suzanne and I did the curation, based on Central American Modernism, a book we produced on the project.
The collection is slated to be donated to the public, either in a museum I build somewhere, or, if I can’t afford that, in an established museum interested in the rich history and production of Central American modern art.
The exhibition will run through July 28 – so if you’re in the area, you might want to give it a look. Meanwhile, you can read about it here.
And here’s something else you might want to check out. Suzanne just told me that there will be a Book Talk at the museum on Sunday, June 23 at 1:00 featuring Latin American art scholar Carol Damian.
