"Se estima que construir un edificio nuevo —aunque sea mucho más eficiente que uno promedio— puede tardar hasta 80 años en amortizar sus emisiones incorporadas. Hay que recordarlo: la industria del cemento por sí sola representa alrededor del 6-8% de las emisiones globales de CO2"

Today is #WorldBrainDay 🧠 This Woodcut illustration is from Cerebri Anatome (c.1664) by Thomas Willis, the father of #neuroscience. The term #neurology first appears in this book. He also discovered the Circle of Willis, an important anatomical structure that provides blood to the brain.

"Our subjective and intentional experience and reexperience show that our consciousness is not a process of the material world." #Bergson substack.com/home/post/p-...

Bergson was the first philosopher since Augustine who truly appreciated the wonder of our memory. We can rewind our spool of memory, playing it back in various ways and, most importantly for Bergson, not in the sequential order in which current time unwinds but in the order of meaning. We recollect and order our past not in clock time but in duration—arraying and living through our memories according to the qualitative importance we place on them. Our subjective and intentional experience and reexperience show that our consciousness is not a process of the material world.

#MosaicMonday 🏺 Giant fishes could be a tricky catch for 3-4 C #Roman period boatmen in this lively scene from Utica, Tunisia. British missionary Nathan Davis excavated on behalf of British Museum at Carthage + Utica, also retrieving Greek, Latin + Phoenician finds that arrived at Museum 1857-1860.

Two fishermen in a small tan coloured boat are surrounded by examples of different types of fish/sealife that are mostly larger than they are. On a background of plain white tesserae.

Bueno... Entre las cosas que aprendí hoy: - Mariátegui ya era asistente editorial a los 14 años. - Fanon falleció a los 36. 💔 - Interesante el concepto de descentralización. jacobin.com.br/2022/07/como...

Ele acrescentou que “centralizar tudo na capital deveria ser evitado”. Os funcionários do governo não devem residir em um local, mas ser obrigado a se movimentar pelo país, de modo a permanecerem em contato com as massas rurais e urbanas. Isso não significa que se opôs a nacionalizar os meios de produção:

Só que é evidente que tal nacionalização não deve assumir o aspecto do controle rígido do Estado… Nacionalizar o setor terciário significa organizar democraticamente as cooperativas de compra e vende. Significa descentralizar essas cooperativas, envolvendo as massas na gestão dos assuntos públicos.

Acima de tudo, Fanon argumentou contra a ideia de um partido única servindo como “vanguarda” da revolução. Ele proclamou firmemente sua oposição a Estados que tem um partido como “a forma moderna da ditadura burguesa – despojados de máscara, maquiagem e escrúpulos, cínicos em todos os aspectos”. Ele não, obviamente, se se opunha ao partido como tal, mas insistiu que o partido, tal qual a nação, deveria ser “descentralizada ao máximo”.

As we head into 2025, I'll be sharing 25 MEDICAL HISTORY OBJECTS starting with... #1) 5,000-year-old prosthetic eye made of bitumen paste with lines radiating out from iris. Worn by a 6’ tall woman (possibly a priestess), found near the city of Zabol in Iran. The eye would have been painted gold.

A skull and neck partially embedded in the ground. Where the eye socket is, there is a large, black ball.

A small, round bird with piercing yellow eyes and a finely speckled head rests on a delicate branch. Its rich brown and white feathers are soft and textured, blending seamlessly with the muted, natural backdrop. The bird's intense gaze conveys a quiet yet commanding presence in the serene environment.

The book Emergent Tokyo isn't necessarily about fashion but it touches on some of these urban planning issues. IMO, looking at historical and institutional structures like this helps us explain why culture is the way it is, and gives us more traction on how to change ours.

He tells me he can pursue his dream of working as a bespoke shoemaker because the cost of living is low (specifically, rent). You can rent a tiny space in Tokyo for very little money, whereas commercial space in the US tends to be both big and expensive.
