Aristide Bruant, in His Cabaret
This artwork, part of Gustav Klimt's contribution to the Stoclet Frieze, features the Tree of Life, a shimmering composition with intricate patterns and symbolic spirals. Klimt's use of gold, geometric shapes, and organic elements exemplifies his unique blend of traditional themes with Art Nouveau style.

The blast in Liège exposes a hollowed-out Belgian ethics. Tolerance is a performance if the state cannot guarantee the safety of its citizens' faith.

🤯 Markets are going crazy! Oil is already ripping past $100, Asian stocks are tanking, and FX is shifting fast. Definitely going to be a wild night.

A fascinating documentary here about John Barbirolli from 1965, showing him conducting Berlioz, Bruckner and Tchaikovsky, playing the cello, cooking dinner with his wife Evelyn Rothwell, telling anecdotes, and doing a fearful amount of smoking. Excellent image quality too. youtu.be/laqDg0b_v0A?...

Jouer au Cluedo avec Hercule Poirot à bord de l’Orient-Express est un vrai plaisir. Adapté d’Agatha Christie, un film au casting première classe (Lauren Bacall, Ingrid Bergman, Albert Finney, Sean Connery…).

From 1933 and next door to the south is Citroën's former Belgian HQ, showroom and workshop, a collaboration between French and Belgian architects. A new Franco-Belgian project, the Kanal-Centre Pompidou modern art museum is due to open in this building in November.

Alzheimer’s is a serious neurodegenerative disease. Using fake diagnoses to attack a political opponent shows ignorance and a lack of ethics. Disagree all you want, but weaponizing illness only lowers the level of the conversation.

Officially tech-bilingual! Maybe this is what dual citizenship feels like. I’m not leaving my Mac, I’m just adding a Dell. And now my brain says Cmd, my pinky hits Ctrl, and I’m living in constant shortcut confusion 😩
