In Ian Fleming's 1953 novel Casino Royale, James Bond invents and orders a Kina Lillet martini, which he named the "Vesper" after his love interest in the story. He asks the bartender for a dry Martini, a fraction of a second later he adds to the order: "Three measures of Gordon's, one of vodka, half a measure of Kina Lillet."

Another gracious host on our sojourn down south: Cecile Bernhard!! She happens to be the manager of Lillet and filled us to the brim of this delightful drink to be enjoyed before dinner with good conversation.

As the afternoon progresses, our shadows grow longer. At night, in the dark, we become our shadows. That is true today as then. In the old days, people were aware of it, that's all. In the old days, the whole world was religious and full of interest.

Louis Kahn:

I once gave myself an assignment: to draw a picture that demonstrates light. Now if you give yourself such an assignment the first thing you do is escape somewhere, because it is impossible to do. You say that a white piece of paper is the illustration; what else to do? But when I put a stroke of ink on the paper, I realized that the black and white was where the light was not, and then I could really make a drawing, because I could be discerning where I put the black.

Before leaving Paris we had a really fun party to say to goodbye friends that we might not see again, to meet new friends and to spend time with good pals. I set up a photo booth in the hallway to record some fun times. I also shot some portraits on film that will trickle in later.

I have had a structure for my film for about a month now, but had started to doubt what I had created. Last night when I started explaining it over to dinner to a new acquaintance, he rejuvenated and brought to light (no pun in intended!!!) what I had subconsciously created. After drawing it out, we could see that I had created a structure that oscillates back and forth between light and dark, just like a wave in a way (crests and troughs) and the wave slowly unravels as the film progresses.

i just came back from two days in telford, england where I am starting another project with my friend mileece. we are making a series of videos about renewable energy and most of the inspiration comes from her dad's fuel cell company. i just spent 48 hours with some of the smartest people i have ever met on the planet. the world is changing inside of SC013. more to come about that.

the best thing about the world cup this year was actually paul the oracle octopus who guessed 8 world cup games in a row. as much as a i love Spain, they make for boring soccer with their only strategy being keeping the other team from scoring, and then just barely managing to make one goal.
