A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Loretta Lynn carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

Rineke Dijkstra! Nice choice, though a single photo isn't enough, her work is best seen with whole series. The beach one is great, the one with the bullfighter is strong as well | |

I agree - too tiny. The blue of that ocean deserves to be enormous. Great photo though. and great tunes so far, trouble! | |

fred:
@Mike East: That's where going to a museum beats internet. I saw an exhibition of her work years ago, each room featured a different series. These are gorgeous prints too. | |

Mike East:
here's the trouble I have...I commute to the city everyday. On my days off, its hard for me to motivate myself to make the trip to Manhattan, even though its only 45minutes away. Could be that I'm getting older, too. | |

Schirmer/Mosel has a beautiful book of Rineke Dijkstra's photos called "portraits". She has done a video with teenagers filmed on a white background just next to clubs in the UK and Netherlands. Pretty good stuff, with two screens | |

there's a Janet Cardiff sound installation going on now, too, that I like to, but doubt I will, make it out to. But I will present the Guggenheim to my wife, and see if she'd like to take the trip with me. | |

I agree about beach volleyball, yawn...not so Olympic feeling. But neither is hand ball. Love women's weight lifting, table tennis and badminton though! | |

No worries Trouble! The work is up for the entire month of August, so there are more chances to see it. I am thinking of having a closing party on Saturday the 25th before it comes down. Here's a link to the flyer: http://jennifersteffey.blogspot.com/2012/07/big-show-comin-up.html | |

-a chorus loss, That's so sad and shocking. Hamlisch was working on Lewis' 'Nutty Professor' musical, hopefully he finished most of it. Just loved his score for the 'Informant!'. Real old scholl talent. | |

I refuse to order grande, vente or whatever in Starbucks and order a small coffee. I used to think their orders were pretentious, but now I think I'm being pretentious by refusing to use their lingo. | |
Tue. 8/7/12 11:11am
buncotools:
All good on my end, that song is so haunting. | |

TIL, if you don't have a Facebook account, you're probably a serial killer http://onforb.es/Nk7a9O | |
Tue. 8/7/12 11:13am
Cecile:
duke, I order the way you do because I can never remember which is what. Tall always sounds big to me (I mean a tall beer is big, right?), so I am disappointed when I order a tall at Starbucks and it's not. | |
Tue. 8/7/12 11:15am
Cecile:
But then again, I usually only order the cheese plate at Starbucks. Their coffee is kinda ashy. But their cheese plate is great! So is their green brewed iced tea. | |
Tue. 8/7/12 11:18am
Jennique:
Duke - it took me a long time to ever step foot in a Starbucks. I found myself tricked into walking in one at a Barnes & Noble. Finally I caved and actually bought something there, but I still refuse to order by their terms. It just feels fake, like I am putting on an accent. I'm all set up for being a cranky old lady. | |
Tue. 8/7/12 11:18am
still b/p:
I like it and think it's important that there are Facebalkers and Starbalkers. | |

![]() duke that was a quite an article! you' re damned if you do and damned if you don't. the NEED for us to follow a trend is sick! individuality is suddenly threatening to a marketplace mentality that demands every one get on board and BUY BUY BUY! bbbbooiiy, where is public enemy when we need them? |

OMFG! When you get a chance check out the video I took with my phone. The audio is distorted but the video and performance totally make up for it. We were close enough to Georg and Jonsi to count their nostril hairs. http://youtu.be/wEduxwcOI9M | |
