(((if you are reading this, the mirrors are working))) Aug 17, 2024 @ Berlin Drei Berliner Spaziergängen – https://javier.computer/2024/08/17/tres-paseos-berlineses · New comment system at https://javier.computer Aug 9, 2024 @ Berlin Close encounter (of the third kind): https://mastodon.social/@javierarce/112931630022796913 Aug 6, 2024 @ Berlin Saw that there's a permacomputing meetup near the flat @ https://offline.place next Sunday and I plan to attend. Aug 2, 2024 @ Berlin Isla coffee · Thank Goodness You’re Here! · “On the Inconvenience of Other People” · Blumenbetrachtung con las Fustero sisters. Jul 31, 2024 Back to the pond · I published this today: https://javier.computer/2024/07/31/berlin-en-primavera · Flying to Berlin tomorrow with @erica. May 26, 2024 https://javier.computer/2024/05/26/revelat May 26, 2024 I watch “Il Sorpasso”. I totally relate to the shy and pathetic law student character played by Jean-Louis Trintignant (who, by the way, is the lead in “Amour,” that Haneke film I don’t think I’ll ever watch). The film’s ending —spoiler alert— is very abrupt and I find it incredibly funny because I’ve always thought that if I ever stop worrying about everything, something unexpected and terrible will happen to me. May 21, 2024 Daydreaming about getting fired and enjoying life. May 20, 2024 Sold a bookcase and now my books are homeless. May 19, 2024 How does the "recently updated" list work on this site? May 18, 2024 Started reading "The Cyberiad" by Stanisław Lem. May 17, 2024 In a state of constant anxiety. But hey, I got a nice email from a person (a mathematician and a poet, go figure!), who liked my "Type Simulator" piece for Taper so much that decided to write me (!) May 16, 2024 Out of the blue, I went out in the world to see a bunch of cool shorts by Sally Cruikshank. May 15, 2024 Finished (and loved!) "Laughter in the Dark". May 13, 2024 It's going to be Moving Day for a while · Watched The African Queen (1951) · Now, a bit of Nabokov before sleep. May 8, 2024 Tired & Sad (terrible name for a cocktail, right?). I should update my blog. These days I'm reading "Laughter in the Dark" by Nabokov. May 1, 2024 My piece for Taper #12 is out! https://taper.badquar.to/12/type_simulator.html Apr 29, 2024 I blink, and 10 days go by. How is that possible? Scary. Apr 20, 2024 Added another book to my finished pile (Gogol's Dead Souls): https://javier.computer/books. I should add a disclaimer: I haven't been good at recording which books I've read in the past, so there are a lot of things missing from that list. Apr 15, 2024 Moved my project binocular shots from Tumblr to my blog (via are.na): javier.computer/binoculars. Still not sure about the layout. Here are all the movies features on the page, by the way: https://letterboxd.com/javier/list/binocular-shot Apr 14, 2024 Back in Barcelona. Back At Keyboard tomorrow. Apr 12, 2024 My feelings are moving in a downward direction. I feel stupid, sad, useless, and trapped. Finally uploaded the park I recorded the other day to One Minute Park. I like the "randomart" you get when you generate an SSH key. Apr 11, 2024 Learning to let things go. Three days before going back to Barcelona. Scored two books by Sorokin in the nice New York Review of Books edition: 'Blue Lard' and 'Red Pyramid'. I won't start them until I finish Gogol's 'Dead Souls'. Delicious dinner at DOTORI. Apr 9, 2024 (aproximately here) Refreshed my blog/diary/website/portfolio/computer: javier.computer Apr 2, 2024 The day before the day I won't be working for a week and a half. March 31, 2024 Still in Berlin. Walked a lot, took a lot of pictures and a video for One Minute Park. March 29, 2024 Berlin. Reading Dead Souls. Back to chess. March 19, 2024 New old idea for a tiny poetic project. Or is it an old new idea? · Finished "The Ice", by Sorokin. Looking for a replacement. March 18, 2024 Worked on my submission for Taper. Exciting times. March 17, 2024 I spent the day cleaning and tidying up my flat for a friend who is going to stay there while I'm out, and I couldn't stop asking myself: why can't I do the same thing for myself? Why do I treat myself so poorly? Oh, well. March 15, 2024 Went to the bookshop, didn't buy books. March 14, 2024 I love my website, but I like writing here more than on there. I think it's the lack of friction, the fact that I don't overthink it, and the fact that nobody is reading this or doesn't care. March 13, 2024 Berlin in 10 days. Exciting. March 11, 2024 I don't belong, and I want to belong.
