Muqi Fachang Six Persimmons 13th-century “The short window we have to experience these artworks echoes the brief time we have on Earth to make a positive impact on those around us. By allowing audiences to directly contemplate these humble yet powerful ink paintings, shared with us in the spirit of utmost generosity, The Heart of Zen reflects what we do best at the Asian Art Museum: offering a once-in-a-lifetime chance to connect the past with our lives today.” – Dr. Jay Xu, the Barbara Bass Bakar Director and CEO, Asian Art Museum of San Francisco [1] “Six Persimmons” (detail), a still life of an autumn fruit likely by the monk Muqi and one of Japan’s most revered works of art, is on view for only three weeks at the Asian Art Museum of San Francisco.

I was tagged in this tag-chain thing so here I go

Hair color: Brown

Eye color: Brown

Height: 6

Zodiac sign: Capricorn🐐

Favorite color: It’s a shade not a color but black will always be my jam but otherwise I’ve been really into purple lately

Favorite book or book series: One Piece 😎

Favorite soup: french onion soup

Favorite month: I used to really like December because of the breaks and my birthday but I think October is actually my favorite now. Very pretty month with nice weather

Favorite meme: LuckyLuciano’s You Know I Had to Do It to Em is eternal especially when people started hiding him into images. Never fails to get a chuckle out of me even after coming out 7 years ago.

Place you’d love to visit: Japan or the actual planet Jupiter 

You have the power to redo and fix a show/book/movie, what do you choose?: Tough one because there’s so many good choices but I’ll go the Shonen route and choose the final two arcs of Bleach 😐 ᵒʳ ᶠᵃᶦʳʸ ᵗᵃᶦˡ ᶦⁿ ᵍᵉⁿᵉʳᵃˡ 

Popular media that’s celebrated on tumblr that you watched but didn’t care for: Everything that Mari Okada has a hand in. I liken her writing style to David Cage now. The mere presence of her name on a project invokes absolute despair and disappointment in me.

Do you give food to guests: If I have any food worth sharing, of course

Current job/major: right now I’m working as contract animator for a museum film

Time you spend commuting to work/school/etc: hour and 30 minutes per way :/

Last song you listened to that wasn’t part of the tag meme chain: See Me by LeBrock (very catchy song)

Meaning behind your URL and/or what led to it: Gae Bolg Alternative is the noble phantasm of my favorite fate character. I was originally baka-dot-exe. That blog got flagged in 2019 so I made definitely-not-baka-dot-exe to post. definitely-not got flagged and hidden in 2020 lol, so I made this blog to be main art posting blog. Some time in 2021, baka-dot-exe got forcibly terminated so this became my main blog which was also terminated for a little bit (thankfully I recovered it). definitely-not-baka-dot-exe got unhidden soon after but I just use that blog as an archive to revisit art or refind artists that I love. And then I made dummy-dot-exe to be my art posting blog that would take the hit if I reposted something too nsft.

Favorite blogs: My mutuals :)

I tag anyone that wants to do this

As our devices like to remind us, we spend a huge portion of our lives in digital worlds. Yet like other ubiquitous tools, interfaces are seldom recognized as design.

These works remind us that while the digital realm has different, and often untested, rules of engagement. Interaction design can transform our behaviors—from the way we experience and move our bodies to the ways we conceive space, time, and relationships.

🎮 Read an excerpt from the “Never Alone: Video Games and Other Interactive Design” exhibition catalogue that traces interactive design in MoMA’s collection, from interfaces and emoji to video games, link in bio. 🎮 See (and play with) a selection of video games from the #MoMACollection in the exhibition, on view now.

Summer Retreat, Hanko Okada, early 19th century, Cleveland Museum of Art: Japanese Art

The Nanga, or "Southern School" painters of 17th- and 18th-century Japan were greatly influenced by Chinese culture. The subjects and styles of their work reflected the contemporary Japanese taste for imported Chinese objects and learning. A common practice among Nanga painters was the exchange of small paintings and calligraphies. They also celebrated special gatherings of artist-friends by producing individual sheets that were then gathered together in albums. The sheets shown here were part of such a gathering. Size: Sheet: 26.7 x 17.5 cm (10 1/2 x 6 7/8 in.) Medium: album leaf, ink and color on ivory silk
