Giorno Noventasei: Roma Sycophants on velvet sofas, lavish mansions, vintage wine// Panic! At the Disco . . . Today started out bright and early as I boarded a train destined for Rome, and the friendly faces, and open arms of my grandparents. After a yummy colazione romana (Roman breakfast), Nanny directed us to the Mercato Monti where we got to walk around and enjoy the morning, after a quick lunch, we were off on a 3 hour tour of the Colosseum (aka the Flavius Arena), the Domus Aureus (Nero’s Golden Palace), and the Roman Forum. I was at first underwhelmed by the size of the colosseum... until I got close to it because WOW. The immensity of the building was incredible and our tour was so informative. Afterwards we got to see the archeological dig site of the Domus Aureus, which technically expands over 3 of the 7 Roman hills, or approximately 80 hectometers of land!! We only saw a small pavilion that made up less than 1% of the total palace, but even that was ENORMOUS. The archaeologists created a 360 VR recreation of what the building and gardens would have looked like at the height of Nero’s reign in the first century, and it was mind blowing. The scale of the entire complex is physically incomprehensible, but then add on to the fact that the entirety of the inside was either painted in fresco (which later inspired the Grotesqua style of the Renaissance painters who discovered the buried Domus) or covered in marble. This was truly an incredible stop on our tour. Finally we ended with a quick survey of the Roman Forum, and I got to see where Julius Caesar was cremated, and where Augustus built a temple to commemorate and deify him. Following all that walking (7 miles today!!) My grandparents took me to the most amazing restaurant for dinner where I had black truffle carbonara, and very... very rare steak (I powered through 😂). The night was topped off with the quintessential gelato and I can’t wait to have more adventures tomorrow! (at Rome, Italy)

“Se dedicaban a todo lo que podía sacarse de donde estaba para ponerlo en otro lugar a fin de darle otro uso”
Usar Google Street View para este ejercicio fue inesperadamente difícil, principalmente por lo que quería hacer. Fue difícil encontrar imágenes que me puedan servir, imágenes en la que se pueda ver un edificio completo, especialmente de buena calidad en algunos de los casos que creí estarían las mejores imágenes. Hubo un caso en el que quien fuera haya sido tomó la foto dejó su dedo en la lente, y asumo fue pasada sin revisar por una compañía tan grande como lo es Google.
Dejando todo esto detrás, me parece una herramienta interesante para la creación artística. Sinceramente jamás se me habría ocurrido realizar un ejercicio con Street View. Lo que me facilitó realizarlo fue la imagen mental de “Clarice”, de las “Ciudades Invisibles” por Italo Calvino (Las Ciudades y el Nombre 4), una ciudad que se destruye y reconstruye, me imagino edificios tras edificios a través de los años uno tras otro tras otro, algunos con su propósito reciclado, otros tan solo olvidados. Una ciudad sumida en el caos y la notoriedad, grotesqua y olvidada, pero al mismo tiempo bellamente única y constantemente innovadora.

The Nightlife Outlaws of East Los Angeles
Let’s get one thing straight, so to speak.
There’s mainstream gay club culture — homogeneous house music, international circuit parties, rainbow flags everywhere, which is fine! — and there is underground gay club culture, which is more like a spider web of alternative scenes. The underground reflects themes and identities, as well as literal geographies, that are usually marginalized, or are, in a word, “queer. Short Term Loans Online ”
In Los Angeles in early 2016, two queer club denizens put a party together at a strip-mall gay bar in deeply Latino eastern Los Angeles and called it Club Scum. Far from the posher dance floors of the gay enclave of West Hollywood, the goal of the organizers was to mix scenes that hadn’t often met, even on the widest of webs: drag and punk. They were nervous. Banco Itaú | O que você está buscando?
“The first Scum, yeah, some people were leaving, and the manager was worried,” said one of the co-founders, Rudy “Rudy Bleu” Garcia, referring to their venue, Club Chico in Montebello, Calif.

So apparently tumblr doesn't notify you (or maybe just me) of new followers anymore? Well, I just noticed some new peeps here.
So, hello to blackdeva, grotesqua, socrowmantic and clarinet-sisters!
Welcome to my personal playground, make yourselves at home, enjoy the ride, and if you don't, don't be worried about unfollowing me again. I'm not the kind of person who cares a lot about that really. I'd be happy if you stay of course, I'd actually like to get to know you and interact with you!
If you're for some reason here for my art, you might as well check out my artblog over at mon-qi-doodles. It's mostly but not strictly an artblog, I post all kinds of original content there and reblog tutorials/references/artsy stuff you know.
