I'm both angry and excited to read about the French & #Paris #cycling movement.
Angry that the UK is so far behind, with our leaders having so little vision.
Excited that we have #Elections2024 that give us a chance to push our leaders to act on the #ClimateEmergency
Even tho the #GreenParty can't win a majority, talking to all our MP candidates about how important to us the #ClimateAction is, to make them commit when they're on our doorstep / in hustings.
...and ditch #TorySewageParty

Yesterday I finally found some time and motivation to work on my tavern asset set again... nothing worth sharing yet.
Meanwhile I discovered a very old render of mine. I remember this was like the first scene I had an Idea about what I wanted to express, set it up and was happy with the results. Still remember how I turned this historical map of #paris into a #3D object and used UV mapping for the first time correctly 😁
I find it still holds up today.
My regular running route goes over the Longfellow Bridge into #Boston from Cambridge. And while we have completely fallen in love with #Paris and want to retire there, while Paris is more beautiful than dear, dowdy little Boston in 999 ways out of a thousand, I have to say that the famous Seine is kind of a dinky brown river hemmed in by ugly walls, and the view from the Longfellow is fucking spectacular.
#art #history: i should have honoured the memory of kiki de montparnasse (aka: alice prin) on the 2nd of october. trust me, she merits the upkeep of her legacy. if you want to know why, read my thread (below).

I lived in #Paris in the 90s. A city totally dominated by cars.
Hard to walk in, a nightmare to ride a bike in.
Look at it now: a city where cars, rather than people, have trouble moving.
Which, in the overheated, hurricane-plagued 2020s, is how a city *should* look.

THIS JUST IN:
Car ban begins in the center of #Paris.
Starting on Monday, Nov. 4, 2024: no through-traffic will be allowed in four central arrondissements on the Right Bank. (Home to the Louvre, Notre-Dame, and the Marais).
This is a big deal.

In observance of the passing of Oscar Wilde (1854 - 1900), I recommend everyone watch this movie short (less than six minutes) from Paris Je T'aime. Released in 2006, this segment is called "Père-Lachaise." Starring Emily Mortimer and Rufus Sewell, it was written and directed by Wes Craven

Je vais donner une #conférence sur mon voyage à vélo de Paris à Athènes le jeudi 13 février à 19h, à #Paris.
Une intervention organisée par l'association "Quelques Femmes du Numérique".
J'ai donc décidé d'aborder le périple avec humour, sous l'angle des (innombrables) outils numériques (18 pour être précise) qui ont parfois facilité, parfois pimenté, dans tous les cas transformé mon voyage !
(Oui, car le téléphone qui tombe en rade au milieu de nulle part, il fallait que ça arrive, et ce n'était pas un voyage sans écran 😅 !)
Conférence gratuite, ouverte à toutes et tous, places limitées.
Je vous y verrai ?

I just watched a very interesting bio of #HazelScott on #PBS #AmericanMasters.
Scott was a #Black woman who was a #MusicalProdigy who was enrolled at #Julliard at a very young age, who mastered the classics but who made a living mainly playing jazz & #popular music w/crossovers to classical music.
Hazel was married (for a time) to #AdamClaytonPowell, had the 1st TV show in the 50's staring a #Black performer before #NatKingCole got one, made a few movies on her own terms before being #BlackListed from the #movies & from #TV because she stood up for the herself & the rights of others & who lived for a time in #Paris, like a lot of Black creative people did to escape the discrimination they felt in the #US.
If any of this interests you, I recommend that you watch the episode which you can find in the link below:

This was the moment I fell in love with Paris. What else can you ask for? Beautiful sunset, iconic Eiffel tower in the back drop, being with my love, surrounded by people that are happy and also in love, and the beautiful voice of the performers. Everything is just perfect. If there's ever a perfect moment, I think that was it.
Some cute cows hanging out there
Our train was delayed for 40 mins in the end arriving in Paris... It was a long train ride
Three Europe trips tell me one thing: it's not like I don't have sweet teeth - dessert in the states sucks!
Our hotel for the last night in France is right across the street from Paris Nord. Such magnificent architecture!
