Sunday Slouched
Jul. 5th, 2020 02:37 pmA sunny warm day but tempered by fairly strong winds.
Lunch was beef madras curry with veg rice. Followed by sticky toffee pudding. I know - an indulgence - but what the heck.
Relaxing and reading is the order of the day after hoovering and dusting.

Sunday Tunes #1
Jul. 5th, 2020 03:12 pmTunes for a Sunday afternoon - part one
Max Richter - All Human Beings
Max Richter: All Human Beings
Taken from the upcoming album ‘Voices’,
Oh wow, this made me well-up
"The opening words of the declaration, drafted in 1948, are “All human beings are are born free and equal in dignity and rights.” These inspiring words are a guiding principle for the whole declaration but, looking around at the world we have made in the decades since they were written, it is clear that we have forgotten them. The recent brutal events in the US, leading to the tragic deaths of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor, as well as countless other abuses around the world, are proof of that. At such times it is easy to feel hopeless but, just as the problems of our world are of our own making, so the solutions can be. While the past is fixed, the future is yet unwritten, and the declaration sets out an uplifting vision of a better and fairer world that is within our reach if we choose it. VOICES is a musical space to reconnect with these inspiring principles and Yulia’s striking film depicts this inspiration in a beautiful way, while offering a glimpse into her full length film of our project to come”.
