Thanks to the new Zelda game, I am getting back into loving video games and making time for them. I’m playing Ocarina of Time atm :)
Also, I’ve been reading The Brothers Karamazov by Dostoevsky. So far, really nice, but not anywhere close to the end yet. Same goes for Moby Dick by Herman Melville (the racism gets unbearable though). And then, I’ve been starting my journey with Nietzsche, I chose Ecce Homo to begin with.
Lastly, some music! The new Lana del Rey and Danny Brown x Jpegmafia albums have been on repeat. Been getting into the group “Lamp” as well. Bad Bunny released a song a few days ago and I’ve been absolutely addicted to it too.
Hope my beautiful comrades have been well, love you all! Remember to take care of yourselves and your circle.
Been reading Caudwell’s Illusions of Reality, more theory than a light read but interesting since I have almost 0 arts background. I want to re-read a book about fractals I read as a child after I finish with this.
Haven’t been doing too much gaming lately, my mood’s been frankly too low, hope to maybe do some modding and playing with a really old version of Blender though.
Are there pdfs / epubs of Caudwell’s work, maybe on libgen?
I use Anna’s Archive, think you can get Crisis in Physics and Illusions of Reality there, if not archive.org has them, or at least had Studies in a Dying Culture, if not lmk I can upload somewhere. He draws a lot of parallels between many concepts and poetry in the Illusions book, since that was one of his many professions. Studies in a Dying Culture makes me think of later more psychoanalytical theorists like Fanon though its a bit aged in spots.
I was given the suggestion to read Crisis in Physics many years ago but got sort of sidetracked, hehe.

Sweet, thx.
