I'd like to buy the 2027 Brutalist Calendar but at over €50 by the time all the charges are added on, I'll have to give it a miss. Meanwhile, the @lrb.co.uk calendar is only available to those who don't live in the ‘Fog In Channel, Continent Cut Off’, UK!

@irishrail.bsky.social What an abysmal service. On the train to Cork this morning, there was standing room only. The return train due for arrival in Thurles at 20:30, has still not arrived, three hours later. To add insult, the form for claiming a refund is cumbersome and difficult to locate.

It is a pretty remarkable irony that an essay titled "AI and the crisis of the author" has been removed by the TLS because AI was used to 'write' it.

This is somewhat typical of the assumptions made by people who wallow in popular culture and who assume that US culture constitutes culture in total. For my part, I haven't any idea about either the song or who Langley is. I'm happy if that says something about me.

... “Because a lot of what we talk about when we talk about art is, well, fashion. Not so much in flavor-of-the-month ways as in retrofit or adaptive ones. Since nothing is made out of whole cloth and even genius is incremental, even, I mean, at its most perverse, when it's weighed down by the social or even only personal mood swings of the artist and is simply reactive. (It's impossible to imagine a giant of cubism, say, arising out of the neoclassical tradition). Because there's something always at least a "little" nostalgic about even the greatest art. Not the “hommage” of a young film director to an admired, established elder, or even a sly joke or slipped-in referential, so much as the conventional givens of a particular medium, subject matter, or point of view, even if it’s only the plain true fact of canvas.” ...
