The Big Lebowski

Just really felt the need to watch this again. And it was time well spent. Transferred it to my iPad with Handbrake. Finding watching movies on the iPad with in ears a scarily immersive experience.

1Q84

Haruki Murakami. Books 1-3. Never read anything by this writer before (though I saw “Norwegian Wood” last year). Really enjoyed the journey and the semi-mythical world he created. I look forward to reading more by him.

Postmodern Exhibition

At the V&A - managed to catch it twice before it closed and found it most interesting. Also bought Double Vinyl of tunes from the period (and double CD of different tunes)

Big and Bold and Entertaining. The room with the audiovisuals and the Triptych was esp. enjoyable.

The Guardian

In support of the Guardian’s work last year I subscribed o their Kindle version, but cancelled that when the iPad version appeared I like the layout better, and the pictures. No Sunday paper on the iPad edition though.

Gerhard Richter

I knew almost nothing about or by this artist until I went to the retrospective. Great exhibition for someone like me. Hugely impressed.

The Killing

Late to the party with this excellent TV series, but nevertheless enjoyed it tremendously. Good twists right until the end. Matter of Fact somehow. Will definitely watch Series 2.

No Cultural Life for a Year?

It seems that I have had no cultural life for a whole year. Shows how I have been twittering about it and not updating this page. Perhaps this page has become irrelevant and I should take it down.
