Thom Yorke Art Print
This is SUCH a unique design. They literally gave his song lyrics life, and than portrayed Thom with his own songs. Insane, no?
I planned on buying this awhile back and than my practical side said, Dani no, don’t do it.
This just might be my Christmas present to myself.
I love Thom with the best of ‘em really.
But the man is not notorious for smiling and he always seems so terribly awkward in front of a camera. I saw this and thought, wow Thom, don’t you clean up nice.
How am I supposed to paint like him?
The thought of even copying Chuck Close’s style is so daunting to me.
How do you begin to tell yourself that it’s possible to paint like your hero?
Also in the running…
Sometimes you have to completely change your original idea for an art project, when you see how good another idea is.
Why Exercise Makes You Less Anxious (NYTimes.com)
For years, both in popular imagination and in scientific circles, it has been a given that exercise enhances mood. But how exercise, a physiological activity, might directly affect mood and anxiety — psychological states — was unclear. Now, thanks in no small part to improved research techniques and a growing understanding of the biochemistry and the genetics of thought itself, scientists are beginning to tease out how exercise remodels the brain, making it more resistant to stress…
“It looks more and more like the positive stress of exercise prepares cells and structures and pathways within the brain so that they’re more equipped to handle stress in other forms,” says Michael Hopkins, a graduate student affiliated with the Neurobiology of Learning and Memory Laboratory at Dartmouth, who has been studying how exercise differently affects thinking and emotion. “It’s pretty amazing, really, that you can get this translation from the realm of purely physical stresses to the realm of psychological stressors.”
For Wein.
:P
Sorry, I had to do it. You know I love you.
I wish I could express how much I truly love this album.
