My Trade Secrets today. Imagine the US in 1957 had seen the Sputnik satellite overhead & said "Nah, we'll leave space to the Soviets". Thanks to climate change denial, mindless prejudice and trade protectionism, that's just what it's doing now with China & green tech, esp EVs and batteries. 1/2

Reine Willkür und ein großer Schritt Richtung Diktatur. Früher hätte es Solidaritätsdemos an deutschen Unis gegeben. Auch die Alumni von Harvard könnten weltweit von sich hören lassen.

Finally, one area where Trump’s declared intent to be a ‘unifier and peacemaker’ has fully worked out: he’s achieved the impossible and united arch-rivals Merz & Merkel — in their utter contempt for him.

Ukraine now has 1. Europe’s most experienced military; 2. a +++innovative defense sector that knows how to produce more for less; 3. a political class with the guts to stand up to Putinism & Trumpism, even simultaneously, and prevail. A headless EU looking for direction needs to look no further.

The CDU chief, for all practical purposes, proclaiming NATO dead on live TV… hardly leaves them any room for untenable positions anyway. Hard to be a foreign policy enfant terrible when reality itself becomes a terrible enfant.

Wir sind geschockt: Wir haben uns auf die „Journalisten“ der WELT und die Experten des unabhängigen Maro-Lago-Instituts verlassen, dass Musk keinen Hitlergruß gezeigt hat. Aber jetzt wird gegen uns ermittelt!? – Wir werden Alice Weidel in den Zeugenstand berufen.

Ein Blick in die Welt zeigt, dass wir mehr Kommunikationsgeschichte denn je benötigen. Mehr Lehre und Forschung, mehr Vermittlung, mehr Schulungen zu Medienmanipulationen, zu Zensurphänomenen, zu Öffentlichkeitsgenerierung, zu Fake News usw. Die Muster sind bekannt, und müssen thematisiert werden.

Surely one of the oddest examples of #spolia reuse brings us to the #Historischesmuseum #Basel this #SpoliaSunday to ponder the reuse of a #cameo of #Medusa as the face of the Old Testament king #David, especially in his role as ancestor of #Christ. (📸 HMB/Peter Portner)
STATUETTE OF KING DAVID, C. 1280-1320, WITH ANCIENT CAMEO. BASEL HISTORICAL MUSEUM

This beautiful and bizarre gold statuette, only  17.7 cm tall, was made by southern German goldsmiths in around 1280 for the cathedral treasury of Basel in Switzerland, though its origins and commission are lost to us. The gold base and the miniature statue of the Virgin and Child are from a reworking of c. 1320. But the most striking part of the statuette is the head, a gold cowl surrounding a late-antique sardonyx cameo of Medusa which serves as King David's face. True, the face is rather mannish, and Medusa's snaky locks look like curls, but the tiny wings on either side of her central hair-knot identify her. The tiny Virgin and Child are standing on a C13 cameo of a lion. The three-quarters-length figure holds a scroll with a red niello inscription naming him DAVID REX and allude to him as an ancestor of Christ, David the "Lion of Judah".
