It’s my anniversary🥂Today was such a beautiful day, full of ordinary Venetian moments & smiles, that I only just remembered: OTD Cat Bauer arrived in Venice on April 9, 1998 -> catbauer.com/2018/07/more-ab…

#MicheleTadini is the new Artistic Director of the #BiennaleMusica for the two-year term 2027-2028. “Over a lifetime of work, learning, research, hypotheses, definitions, order and disorder, every composer/researcher asks questions about music, its reasons, its necessities. Seeking answers, they search their souls, and form convictions about what to do and what to say. I have now been entrusted to give concrete shape to these thoughts. In addition to gratitude, I feel a deep sense of responsibility. What I will say and do will not only be an expression of what I believe is important, it must also be important for the public and for music itself” → bit.ly/3Us8mpj

Privilege to attend "Sounds of Beauty" at Palazzo Pisani Moretta, hosted by Dries Van Noten, Patrick Vangheluwe & Scott! A riveting lineup combined traditional with edgy, from Stravinsky to Venice icon Patty Pravo. Tears of joy. Thanks for bringing your magic! #airedalelover
Time to set the clocks back in Venice⏳
🕰️È tempo di cambiare l’ora!
A #PalazzoDucale, nella Sala del Senato, si nasconde un ingranaggio che regola due quadranti: uno sovrastante il meccanismo e l'altro collocato nella sala adiacente
Un'iscrizione rivela il nome dell'orologiaio che ne rifece l'ingranaggio nel 1755: Joannes Pavlvs Gloder
La numerazione riserva una particolarità: le cifre romane seguono prevalentemente la notazione additiva. Il 9, ad esempio, è rappresentato come VIIII anzichè IX e si susseguono in senso antiorario
Un esempio della storia della misurazione del tempo, custodito tra gli ambienti di Palazzo Ducale #Venezia

Slowing the AI race may not be possible. But there is a path to oversight that doesn't depend on the industry’s permission — & it comes from the past, @drannaaugust writes noemamag.com/an-inside-look-…
Did you know the brilliant Italian artist, Antonio Canova, sculpted George Washington in the nude? He died #OTD October 13, 1822. His heart (only!) is in a tomb here in the Frari in Venice-> venicegazette.com/2022/10/th…
