“Seeing comes before words”*…

Five years ago, (R)D featured John Berger’s award-winning– and more to the point, hugely-influential– television series Ways of Seeing (in some ways a response to Kenneth Clark’s Civilisation series). The broadcast was followed by an adaptation of Berger’s scripts that became a book of the same name.

Now that hugely influential work is available in a gorgeous web version…

Based on the 1972 BBC series and comprised of 7 essays, 3 of which are entirely pictoral, Ways of Seeing is a seminal work which examines how we view art…

A beautiful new way to enjoy (and learn from) a classic: “Ways of Seeing“

* John Berger (the first line of Ways of Seeing)

As we ponder perspective, we might pause to celebrate the induction, on this date in 2005, into the the National Toy Hall of Fame of a plaything that invites constant creativity– the cardboard box.

There's a cat that would hang in my garden on cold frosty days, it would just spend the whole day sitting on my composter or attempting to hunt something. So I started feeding it and gave it a box. The cat is really anxious, so I haven't been able to approach it. Luckily, I have a compact telephoto camera and the cat seems to like the box 😁 The box surprisingly lasted over a week of rain, but not sure how much longer it will last 😅

Cheers to the perfect box for the family #HardyBoys
collection! The books are being passed on to a 3rd generation of ravenous readers. They may not be great literature, but they're certainly #FamilyHeirlooms.

I give you The Poor Man's Cutlery Organizer.

(Picture below.)

Prior to a few minutes ago, the cutlery was just floating freely in the drawer. As I was putting away dishes, I had an idea. I took a Belvita box. I cut it in half. Bingo! A cutlery organizer!

"But why did you not buy one?"

Because the idiots that designed this hutch decided to save money by making the drawers not deep enough. There *is* enough space in the hutch for deeper drawers. They *decided* to make the drawers shorter. The end result is that there is literally no off-the-shelf organizer that will fit into this drawer.

I thought about building something with parts, etc. but I'm just not interested. This is an ugly solution, but it was trivial to implement, and it is definitely better than having the utensils all higgledy-piggeldy in there.

Trivial wins the day. Maybe someday I'll find an organizer that I want to buy and will fit into this drawer.

An open drawer. In it there is the poor man's cutlery organizer made of a Belvita box cut in half. It forms two compartments. The spoons are in the right compartment. The fortks are in the left. The knives are outside the compartments. There's a bit of random junk in the front of the drawer.
