Cassatt seated in a chair with an umbrella. Verso reads "The only photograph for which she ever posed. Courtesy of Durand-Ruel."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Cassatt#/media/File:Mary_Cassatt_photograph_1913.jpg

Cassatt is dressed in a sophisticated, perhaps slightly informal, attire, likely representative of the late 19th or early 20th century fashion. Her expression is serene, with her gaze directed slightly off to the side, as if lost in thought or observing the world around her. She grips an umbrella with both hands.

A dark, grim space that shows a concrete floor and nothing else. In the middle of the concrete floor is a neatly drilled hole, like a manhole without a cover. A ladder protrudes from the darkness of the hole. Beyond, the room extends into darkness. Hanging from above is a glowing sign with white letters. While the glow is predominantly white, it ranges across a number of different colors: yellow, green, pink. The letters say "Open". The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

As we kick off into summer, I always like to think back to just a few months ago when summer was just a dream, and cold was the present reality.

It's so easy to forget, especially in the heat of summer, that nature has her seasons, with different features in each one. Cold in winter, hot in summer, BUT, because nature and weather are unpredictable, surprises aren't unexpected.

May you get out there, often, to that beautiful place where you feel inspired, relaxed, calm, creative, and free to be who and what you are.

That's how good things get done on this planet -- by individual people who express themselves through who they are, and what they love to do.

This tiny boxwood peapod (10 cm) was carved in c. 1500 by a North German artist. It opens to reveal little peas, and then those peas open to reveal ten little carved scenes from Genesis. Now housed at the Museum of Decorative Arts in Berlin

Last weekend, Elon Musk shared some images on his X platform that he claimed had been created by the Grok AI system. They were actually just edits of original work by Australian artist Charles Brooks, a former concert cellist who is known for photographing the insides of instruments. An X user named Eric Jiang had run some of these through Grok, adding people to the original photos so they look like buildings. Musk retweeted the post with the comment "Generate images with @Grok." @404mediaco's Matthew Gault spoke with Brooks. “I feel like, if he’s plugging his own AI software, he has a duty of care to make sure that what he’s posting is actually attributed correctly and is properly his,” he said. “But ‘duty of care’ and Musk are not words that seem to go together well recently.”
