here's a little collage, so you can have picture of who I am. and i know, it should be 'get to know me' post, but... yeah.
I like crystals and plants, pins and fictional characters.
I study journalism.
And I survive mostly off yoghurt and coffee.

The Last Moments Of Rachel Scott's on April 20 1999. (part 1)
7:00 A.M
Rachel was getting ready for school on a typical sunny Colorado morning, she and her brother were rushing to get to class.
On their arrival at school they began to argue (due for being late) as Rachel listened to music from the car radio, Craig would start to switch the station to bother Rachel.
Saying mean things to each other, Craig slammed the door in Rachel's face. it was the last time he would ever have spoken to her.
7:15 A.M
Rachel has her last drama class with her teacher Sue Caruthers.
In this class she draws the thirteen tears and the rose.
"Im going to have a impact on the world". - Rachel
10:55 A.M (“A Lunch”)
﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏
Clarifications Of Some Items
In this cctv image, there are 2 people who look very similar to Rachel and Richard. pstd: i thought it was them but it's not.
Richard stated that he had gone straight to the west entrance. He did not pass near the cafeteria. It seems that he waited for Rachel to arrive.
Rachel's hair was a short chin length bob at the time. Her hair color was red due to her participation on “smoke in the room”.
Rachel worn a silver wedding band. (From her grandmother. Rachel asked her mother to give her).
wearing a black jacket over the white shirt. light blue jeans. white sneakers.
A collage that shows at a minimum how close to rachel's appearance.
This receipt in name of rachel. where she allegedly bought milk.
but i found an image of the crime scene where Rachel and Richard's meals are thrown away and already spoiled. i don't see anything related to milk at any point.
this is a controversial item, as it doesn't seem to fit the timeline, some say it was fabricated to establish rachel scott's presence, which alters the timeline. there is also a possibility that she never went to the cafeteria and that another student bought the small milk. the transaction was made with her student account, not with money. that meant that someone she trusted asked rachel to use her student account to buy a milk. but then how does that explain rachel never going to the cafeteria if she was eating with castaldo? that means that someone she trusted asked rachel to use her student account to buy a milk. but then how does that explain why rachel never went to the cafeteria if she was eating with castaldo? where did that food come from? why wouldn't she have time to get to the west entrance? how did columbine control the nutritional program expenses at that time? why was the cash register 10 minutes ahead of time?
I don't see any small milk, if the milk were there, the container would probably be punctured by a bullet and leaking milk.
﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏
End.
Part 2 (x)
credits to their respective authors. The information is in the Columbine subreddits!

“Infinity on the Horizon” — This exhibition highlights modern and contemporary objects in the Georgia Museum of Art’s permanent collection by prominent and lesser-known artists that can be characterized as abstract landscapes.
“Allison Janae Hamilton: Between Life and Landscape” — Allison Janae Hamilton’s works often include spectral figures to convey the role of nature in Black experience as beautiful and fragile, hopeful and haunted.

“MOOD: 2022 Juried Exhibition” — Features the work of 37 contemporary artists from across the United States and Canada. Their work in all media explores or references MOOD, a term that has taken on a unique connotation on social media through its use thousands of times a day by individuals to express their temporal emotions with imagery, memes and an ever-changing collage of the media culture that surrounds us. #Mood is happy, sad, reflective, angstful, urgent, chill, colorful, somber, hungry, sleepy, angry, hopeful and more. The work on display was juried by Liz Andrews, executive director of the Spelman College Museum of Fine Art.
ATHICA@CINÉ Gallery
“Familiar” — Photographs by Christy Bush.
Lyndon House Arts Center

The Athenaeum
“Smooooooooooooooth Operator” — Brooklyn-based artist Kameelah Janan Rasheed presents a new exhibition that examines the poetics and power of machine learning. She questions computation, the role of the reader and ritual in “Smooooooooooooooth Operator,” which considers the menace of smoothness. We know what a smooth thing is; we’ve run our hand over a surface without noticeable projections or interruptions. Smoothing as a practice shows up in music via quantization and again in image processing via filters. Both are procedures of standardization and forced patterning by disregarding dirty data (or noise) in the service of fulfilling the audience’s expectations. Smooth viewing is easy viewing because the brain doesn’t have to second guess what it is looking at. Smooth images, smooth text make smooth, speed readers.
tiny ATH gallery
Peter Loose, "Places of Peace” — This exhibition is dedicated to the late and beloved artist Art Rosenbaum and centers on the work that Peter created the night he learned of Art’s passing. Birds have always been his inspiration.
Hotel Indigo, Athens
ArtWall@Hotel Indigo: Photography by Lucy Reback and Megan Reilly — These New York-based photographers have been living and working in Athens for the past two years. The artists, who are also a couple, have never exhibited collaboratively. These works span five years; some were taken before the couple met, and others are intimate vignettes of their relationship. The fragmented assemblage of their combined work reinterprets these memories, bending time to include the other in their past and articulate the present connection.
Glass Cube: “Aurora,” an installation by multimedia artist Zane Cochran featuring changing light and geometric lanterns based on occurrences of the Northern Lights. Open 24/7.
The Classic Center
The Classic Center galleries will be closed this Third Thursday due to an event in the space.
—
Third Thursday was established in 2012 to encourage attendance at Athens’ established art venues through coordination and co-promotion by the organizing entities. This schedule and venue locations and regular hours can be found at 3thurs.org.
Contact: Michael Lachowski, Georgia Museum of Art, [email protected].

The Last Drive-In host Joe Bob Briggs curated a collage of vintage film noir ad blocks for a poster from Mondo. The 18x24 letterpress print is limited to 225. It will be available for $50 tomorrow, March 26, at 2pm EST.
Read a statement from Briggs below:
The women were just as tough as the men in the melodramas called 'film noir' by the French, and the name stuck even though this genre is as distinctly American as the western.
Between 1946 and 1964, these low-budget black-and-white journeys into the tenements, back alleys, and fleabag hotels of the desperate and the dispossessed taught us that passion is a snare, cynicism is strength, and sacrifice is for fools — until one transforming moment, usually in the final scene, when the American weakness for the underdog and the downtrodden leads to redemption — Jackie Gleason giving all his money to Anthony Quinn so the punch-drunk boxer won’t know he was a patsy, or Paul Newman turning his back on George C. Scott in the last big-time pool hall he’ll ever play in.
Film noir is known as a 'dark' and pessimistic genre, but it’s in fact the opposite — outwardly weak characters with inner strength defeating strong men who are corrupt to the bone. These are 90-minute masterpieces about the ability of a single person, however flawed, to change the world.

Immediately Remove The Republicans Who Voted In Favor of the Terrorists’ Demands
It’s not just Trump who has to go. The Constitution is clear. Any member of Congress who participates in an “insurrection or rebellion” is in violation of the oath they took to defend and uphold the Constitution — and thus they may no longer serve in Congress. Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment, written initially to exclude Confederate Civil War traitors, says that "No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress … who … having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress … to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same[.]"
There are 147 Republican members of the Senate and the House who late last Wednesday night (and into the early hours of Thursday morning) — just hours after a domestic terrorist attack on the Capitol which they and Trump helped to incite — voted to overturn (throw out) the legal and already-certified votes of millions of Americans in the states of Pennsylvania and Arizona. It was an act of sedition and a flagrant violation of their oath of office. Legal experts and other members of Congress have called it an act of treason. THIS MUST BE DEALT WITH. They must be, as the Constitution requires, removed from Congress.
Here are their names. And to be clear: The cop-killing terrorist mob who attacked, trashed, took over and shut down our United States Congress for seven hours — the first time in history this has ever happened — their terrorist demands and their stated intention was to prevent the counting of the votes of millions of Americans and illegally give the election to Trump. So what did these 147 Republican lawmakers do just hours after these domestic terrorists stormed the Capitol in the hopes of killing, harming or kidnapping some of their fellow representatives, including their Republican Vice-President!? They voted to give in to the terrorists’ demands! And do EXACTLY what the cop-killing mob had demanded they do: Throw out the votes of the American people! Imagine if on the night of 9/11, 147 Republican members of Congress voted to give in to the demands of Al Qaeda. We never would have stood for that and we would have had them all arrested. But of course there’s a difference: Bin Laden wanted to take down buildings in the financial and military capitols of America and kill 3,000 people in the process. These 147 Republicans just wanted to take down American Democracy.
ALL 147 OF THEM MUST BE REMOVED IMMEDIATELY PER SECTION 3 OF THE 14th AMENDMENT OF THE UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION:

Lighting the Council Fire: Paintings of Suiko Betsy McCall (MFA 2009)
On view through January 30 at San Francisco’s Zen Center, Suikos writes about Lighting the Council Fire: “Whether with a pencil or paint, these works on paper explore the interaction between a structure set up by an evolving, repeating system and the unpredictable chaos of the spill, smudge, or breath-initiated brushstroke. By engaging the repetitive rhythms of practice, my work also aims to reshape my life as an Artmonk.”

“Rackets” and “Laminates” – Richard Goldberg (MFA 1987)
Opening February 1 at 1pm at Far Out Gallery, this show will feature selections from two recent groups of work: “Rackets” and “laminates”.
The “Rackets” are an ongoing group of wall mounted, mixed media sculptural works. Theses sculptures are made with a variety of found objects and materials which take on new identities and meanings as they are synthesized into a single artwork of rhyming shapes, forms and imagery. Each “Racket” work has its own engaging identity, and story to tell.
Shown alongside of the “Rackets” will be collages that are called “Laminates” These works are 2 dimensional, irregular shaped collages of images, symbols, photographs and other visual material. These shaped collages are then laminated and cut out, to become a kind of flat sculpture with shapes and voids around the perimeter of each collage but also within and throughout the entire composition. They are floated in a shadow box frame which brings out their 3 dimensionality. The “Laminates” were a product of an evolution of ideas and impulses that lead the artist to move on to the more robust 3 dimensionality of the “Rackets”.
Mike Henderson: The Black Paintings + David Simpson: Interference
On view through March 28, 2020 at Haines Gallery.
Mike Henderson: The Black Paintings (MFA 1970): Showcasing a body of related works made primarily in the 1990s by recent Artadia Award winner Mike Henderson, the paintings included in this exhibition feature a rich palette of lush blacks, steel grays, and ultramarine blues. Set against the darkness, small shapes of bright blues, yellows, and reds flicker like jewels. Henderson’s experimental films from the 1960s, 70s, and 80s will be shown in dialogue with the paintings. Politically charged and wickedly funny, these remarkable shorts have been screened at museums and festivals around the world.
In addition to the exhibition, The Mike Henderson Band will be performing on January 17 as part of UNTITLED, ART San Francisco. Click here for tickets and more information!
David Simpson: Interference (BFA 1956): Acclaimed Bay Area painter David Simpson’s exhibition takes its title from his use of “interference” pigments, which shift in color with changes in light and the viewer’s perspective. Each canvas on view is the result of up to thirty coats of paint, meticulously layered to create a deep, lustrous surface. Now in his 90s, Simpson continues to delight with works of remarkable dynamism, evoking the movement of clouds, or the play of light across water, ultimately offering viewers a powerful space of contemplation.

The Current's audience just picked 893 essential songs released since 2000. That resulted in a 61-hour playlist, and based on social media, everyone found plenty of room for debate. Okay, now let's make it really hard.
You have 105 minutes to represent all of human history. Music, speech, sounds...everything. Once you include a message from the U.N. Secretary-General, greetings in 55 languages, a sound collage, an international selection of folk music, a jazz number, and several pieces of classical music, that leaves room for exactly one song from the remaining popular music canon. One single song. It's 1977, so that makes your job a little easier; you can ignore the last four decades of rock, pop, and rap. Okay, one song. Go.
If it were up to the listeners of The Current, it would be Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody," voted the single most essential song released prior to 1977. If it were up to Carl Sagan, it would be something by Bob Dylan. The latter is more relevant, since it was Sagan who led the team selecting the contents of Voyager's Golden Record — the literal gold-plated record album sent into the stars in an edition of two.
I reviewed Jonathan Scott’s The Vinyl Frontier for The Current.

The Doctor Strange and Pink Floyd Connection
https://ift.tt/2FsVftO
Marvel's Doctor Strange has a weird history with psychedelic rock band Pink Floyd. Get ready to expand your mind.
facebook
twitter
tumblr
Doctor Strange and Pink Floyd both got their start during the 1960s, a decade known for mind-expansion, psychedelic experimentation, and the pushing of cultural and artistic boundaries. Neither were exactly in step with the rest of their genre.
Doctor Strange, unlike his spandex clad and heavily muscled contemporaries, used occult practices like black magic and astral projection to defeat his foes instead of brute force. Pink Floyd were never really the kind of post-Beatles psychedelic pop group that were still common in the late '60s, nor were they ever the kind of blues-based hard rock or technically-oriented progressive rock band that dominated the 1970s. Unsurprisingly, Doctor Strange comics were popular on college campuses as the counterculture revolution of the 1960s began to take hold and it's easy to see stoners disappearing into Steve Ditko's surreal artwork while early Floyd records played or why psychedelic rockers were more drawn to these than traditional superhero fare.
Doctor Strange director Scott Derrickson dropped a number of Pink Floyd references on Twitter during the production of the Doctor Strange movie (not to mention Bob Dylan, The Talking Heads, T.Rex, and other bands), so I was waiting to see if a Pink Floyd song would actually make its way into a Marvel movie.
I wasn't disappointed.
Video of Pink Floyd - Interstellar Overdrive [HQ]
Pink Floyd's "Interstellar Overdrive" plays during a key early sequence in the movie. It comes from first Pink Floyd album, The Piper At The Gates of Dawn, which abandoned the melodic but skewed psychedelic pop of their early singles, "Arnold Layne" and "See Emily Play" for a collection of songs that were more metaphysical, sinister, and occasionally (like in the case of "Interstellar Overdrive") freeform explorations of sound and feedback. The album version clocks in at nearly 10 minutes, but live versions could run longer, as long as the band wanted, really, and were accompanied by a psychedelic light show and oil projections that were conducive to mind-expansion. Those visuals wouldn't have looked out of place in the Doctor Strange comics of the era, either.
Pink Floyd's guitar player, singer, and driving creative force in 1967 was Syd Barrett, who left the group the following year due to worsening mental illness that was likely accelerated by his voracious appetite for mind-altering chemicals like LSD. Marvel's Doctor Strange movie certainly leans heavily on imagery consistent with the visuals associated with LSD, psilocybin, and mescaline trips (Strange even accuses the Ancient One of spiking his tea with psilocybin), which is fitting, even if it isn't a direct connection to Pink Floyd.
Listen to Pink Floyd The Piper at The Gates of Dawn on Amazon Prime
Barrett was still present on a few tracks on the band's second album, 1968's A Saucerful of Secrets, which has a semi-hidden image of Doctor Strange on the cover. The collage effect is not only reminiscent of the band's light shows and a representation of the psychedelic experience, but the placement of Strange himself makes it look as if the whole album cover is a spell being cast by the Master of the Mystic Arts.
The Strange elements come from a story in 1967's Strange Tales #158, with art by Marie Severin (Doctor Strange co-creator Steve Ditko had left Marvel almost a year earlier).
Here's the page:
(and thanks to Richie who pointed out the specific issue in the comments of our article about all of the easter eggs in the Doctor Strange movie)
The title track, "A Saucerful of Secrets" is kind of like the sequel to "Interstellar Overdrive" as it's another extended instrumental that places more emphasis on experimental sound than it does on anything resembling a traditional rock song structure. In other words, it's the perfect accompaniment to your reading of weird-ass Doctor Strange comics from the era.
Listen to Pink Floyd A Saucerful of Secrets on Amazon Prime
What I somehow never realized until this NightFlight article pointed it out to me is that you can also spot Marvel cosmic entity The Living Tribunal in the upper left-hand corner of the album cover, too...
Doctor Strange was still on the band's radar enough that they included him in the lyrics of "Cymbaline" from their third album, 1969's soundtrack to the Barbet Schroeder film, More. "Suddenly it strikes you, that they're moving into range," Syd Barrett's replacement David Gilmour intones solemnly, "and Doctor Strange is always changing size."
Funny enough, "Cymbaline" was known as "Nightmare" when it was performed as part of The Man and The Journey suite of songs, meaning it shared a name with the first villain Strange ever fought in the comics. Soon the band's lyrical focus drifted away from metaphysical concerns and into more earthly ones, and while they continued to produce extended musical compositions, the atonal sounds of "Interstellar Overdrive" and "A Saucerful of Secrets" gave way to the more melodic "Echoes" and "Shine On You Crazy Diamond."

But if Doctor Strange was an influence on the band in their early days, you can perhaps see hints of Pink Floyd's influence on the character in the 1978 Dr. Strange TV movie, which has a synth-heavy, at times funky, electronic soundtrack and an astral trip visual sequence that looks like some of the light show projections the band were known for. The final song on Michael Giacchino's Doctor Strange score, "Master of the Mystic Arts" subtly evokes some of the band's 1970s work, too.
But one final piece of Doctor Strange/Pink Floyd synchronicity popped up in 2016. Doctor Strange star Benedict Cumberbatch joined former Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour on stage to sing "Comfortably Numb," a song which started life as a demo called, funny enough, "The Doctor." Whether this is coincidence, or simply the universe bringing the Pink Floyd/Doctor Strange connections full circle is entirely up to you to decide, of course. Maybe Doctor Strange 2 can find room for more Pink Floyd music when exploring the Dark Dimension or somewhere similar.
