This is the sculpture "Teamplay", which I made on commission for the city of Krimpen aan den IJssel in 2000.

It's positioned outside a sports hall:

Almost a year after my dear colleague Anneke Klein Kranenbarg passed away, her partner Edwin has organized the exhibition “Art for Life” at Galerie Wagner in Paris, as a homage to her.
An international group of 9 close colleagues of Anneke will show their work, next to that of hers.
I participate with 4 small sculptures of Cortensteel.

@grrlscientist tbh a lot of wisdom feels summarised like

"Be kind",
"Try your best but not all the time",
"Cause harm only when not doing so would cause more",
"Consider wider impacts before you act",
"Remember you make mistakes",
"Remember this could be a mistake",
"Other people / any another person matters exactly as much as you do",
"Not everyone experienced what you did",
"Not everyone experiences what you do", and
"Not everyone will experience exactly what you will".

A few more like
"Disco isn't dead",
"Create what you needed",
"Iterate to explore hidden parameters",
"You don't deserve mistreatment" etc.

@airshipper yeah yeah!
Like, if we’re all the equivalent of cells on the biosphere of the Earth’s surface,
then ideas would be the abstract (holographic?) representation of
relevant information flux (travel) thru an area in a given time span.

So then

Also I discovered a fundamental truth about neurotype communication! Possibly.

I figured out #AnswerToLife, the Universe & Everything — It is not 42

I did it without a giant computer called #DeepThought, & I didn't have to spend 7.5m years pondering it

A recent #Mastodon thread in which I participated, precipitated my #reductive view of the whole Universe as just a mass of UNDIFFERENTIATED sub-atomic particles — electrons jousting with other electrons, albeit subject to RULES, occasionally committing FOULS by leaving their orbit…

ALL Life is simply REARRANGING particles

Overheard a lad on the bus refusing to tell his mate who his favourite singer was because, and I quote, "I think it's really reductive to say you have a favourite band"

Got to love living in a University town sometimes

“Even what I just said, which sounds very persuasive, still doesn’t answer the fact of, all right, how do we prevent kids from being killed today?” he said. “But the problem is that if you are dug in on that, well, the other side is dug in remembering the videos that #Hamas took or what they did on the 7th, & they’re dug in, too, which means we will not stop those kids from dying.”

#BarackObama offered a complex analysis of the conflict between #Israel & #Hamas, telling thousands of former aides that they were all “complicit to some degree” in the current bloodshed.
