Game of Thrones meme: seven quotes [1/7] » Cersei Lannister
“For herself, she wanted sleet and ice, howling winds, thunder to shake the very stones of the Red Keep. She wanted a storm to match her rage.”
“Haftorang” - James Blackshaw & Lubomyr Melnyk
Gather, ye mortals, and weep. James Blackshaw, the inimitable master of the 12-string acoustic guitar, and Lubomyr Melnyk, the prodigious pianist whose continuous music quite consistently leaves hearts aflutter and jaws afloored, have collaborated on an improvised, four song LP entitled The Watchers.
Though I’ve heard only this one song, the result is as stunningly gorgeous as one could hope when two artists - experts - of such craft and caliber play together. “Haftorang” is unrelenting (“continuous”) with its rapid unfurling of notes and the breadth of emotion and tenor herein. It’s a sweeping piece that can be dynamic without sacrificing smooth, steady build by virtue of the massive overflow of notes. The piece is somber, but with a fair few traces of wonder. It’s astonishing.
Be sure to read Blackshaw’s statement accompanying the purchasing options on Important Records’ website. Despite the rather impersonal font, the tale is quite magical [link].

This was created by the brilliant Judith Ann Braunn. Those of you lucky enough to live in or near Indianapolis can see an original (and definitionally temporary*) fingerprint graphite work created by Braunn at the Indianapolis Museum of Art as part of GRAPHITE, a show curated by none other than my wife.
It’s really encouraging to see good contemporary art getting >100,000 notes on tumblr, particularly because everyone is always telling me that no one is interested in contemporary art.
