"Everything proceeds as if space had been trapped by time, as if there were no history other than the last forty-eight hours of news, as if each individual history were drawing its motives, its words and images, from the inexhaustible stock of an unending history in the present."
Marc Auge, Non-lieux: introduction à une anthropologie de la surmodernité

Bonus fact_ Greek architecture, ceramics & sculpture are my antidote to life in general. 🏛🏺
