  1. "Nocturne: Blue and Silver - Chelsea," James Abbott McNeill Whistler, 1871.

    Whistler (1834-1903) was a highly influential and famous painter, although it would infuriate him to know he was most famous for that over-familiar painting of his mother....because it's regarded as a portrait of motherhood, while he intended it only to be a study of shapes and colors. Really.

    That's something about Whistler's art that many modern folks struggle with. He was a big proponent of the Aesthetic movement, preaching "art for art's sake". Many scenes like this weren't intended to be landscapes or capturing a moment in time...they were explorations of color and form. They were meant to be beautiful, and not teach a lesson or have a message.

    He was known as a Tonalist, an art movement that branched off from Impressionism, and was more about capturing form and color.

    From the Tate Modern, London.

    Another rare instance of a character who appeared prior to the annual - in this case, Angela Cairn's transformation into Nocturne counts as the "new character."

  10. This wonderful music player I found is now the only one I use, it's that good. It plays music from your local or server files. It's a well polished app that gets updates every 2-3 weeks with good stuff added every time.

    Give it a try, you'll love it too.

    (edit, put music down twice right next to each other.)

  19. Paisaje Nocturno, Gunther Gerzso 1954

    this seems to me like it's close to some normal reality that I can't place. Maybe a skyline over a neighborhood. but it's actually totally abstract. I like the calm colors with little bits of orange to let you know it's alive, like little fireflies or ideas ✨

    edit it's a little like looking out over the dashboard of a car 😁

  22. Oh my gosh yessss there's finally a LibAdwaita music player that supports Jellyfin. :ablobcateyesflip:​ Nocturne just added Jellyfin support and, based on playing around with it for a bit, it works shockingly well despite being labelled experimental.

    It's so nice I am SO EXCITED :soft_reach:​ :ablobcorgi_bongo_hyper:​

    It was initially released as a local music/Subsonic/Navidrome player, so if those are more your speed, it also supports them. :blobyeengrin:​
