space boy by frank h.
halo, happy sunday! links. yesterday best links I twittered: spectacular art by Jeffrey C. Jones, a beautiful illustration by N.C. Wyeth for Robin Hood, 1917, an exhibit about american jews who fight in WWII, an article about the Keith Harring's exhibit opening at Brooklyn.
an article on how our brain works, Your Soul is in Your Eyes, and more science: this is about the beginning of brains in evolution,  and what means to be human - a redefinition. finally, how to be creative, can we learn that?
have a great day!

by the fields // por el campo


hi, there! first's first. here, a recall of the best links I twittered yesterday:
a nice rooting for science. a nicer illustration by Bill Presing. an article about Pepe Larraz, a spanish artist who is big in USA comics.
and today's interesting quotation is: - ' Truly, which makes me believe there is no inhabitant on this sphere, is that it seems to me that not sensible being would be willing to live here'. - 'Well, then!, said Micromegas, 'perhaps the beings that inhabit it do not posses good sense.' (Voltaire, 1752).
this is all today. have a great weekend!

hi!


hello, guys! here I am again. first, the best of my yesterday twitters. here they go:

very nice drawn girls and advice by Jefferson Machamer. 49 interesting  facts in Picasso's life and art. an interesting article about neutrinos and how they might explain the quantum asymmetry in the Universe.

the today's wisdom sentence is: 'magic, it must be remembered, is an art which demands collaboration between the artist and his public', E.M. Butler, 1948.

stars girl // niña estelar


hello, people. hope you're having a nice wednesday.
here are the best links I twittered yesterday:

ten ultra-weird science-fiction books that became required reading in US.
a review about information and how it doesn't apply for biosphere evolution, and finally, comics: how adventure stories about pirates, romans and aviators are still relevant.

the sentence of the day comes from George Washington, Jan. 8, 1790: "There is nothing which can better deserve our patronage than the promotion of science and literature. Knowledge is in every country the surest basis of public happiness".

finally, the today's sentence: 'All our science, measured against reality, is primitive and childlike - and yet it is the most precious thing we have', Albert Einstein.
that's it. leave you with this cute girl:
