Slipping silently out of the shadows, the rarely seen Ice Creeper is about to eliminate Cold Front and steal the Avalanche.
Today, it snowed in Tokyo.

雪が降っていましたが､空いてることを見込んで東京国立博物館に「平山郁夫と文化財保護」展を見に行ってきました。いつもは人が多い上野公園や不忍池もさすがに人が少なかったです。
Dinner of homemade traditional Austrian meal of thinnly slices of meats and cheeses, and chopped liver with a side of dark bread.
I walked to the end of the Pleasure Pier with my jacket tightly zipped. I think this pigeon was eyeing my nice warm coat! :)
Autorretrato Frialdad / Selfportrait Coldness
Esa mirada fría y de indiferencia, el mundo se te hecha encima y los problemas rondan tu cabeza, pero no sabes que hacer, sólo miras al horizonte, música clásica suena a lo lejos, y entras en un mundo de paz y tranquilidad, ¿que hacer?. Sólo queda respirar profundo y decir "YO PUEDO". Afrontar el mundo real y sus consecuencias, no ser pesimista ni hacer una montaña de un grano de arena, siempre habrá gente peor que tú.
Sigue Adelante!

That cold and indifferent look, you made the world above and the problems around your head but do not know, just look to the horizon, classical sounds in the distance, and you enter a world of peace and tranquility, what do?. As breathing is deep and say "I CAN". Addressing the real world and its consequences, not being pessimistic or make a mountain out of a molehill, there will always be people worse than you.
Keep Going!

Cold Comfort was a participatory work installed in the Old Melbourne Gaol in Sept-Oct, 2012.
The piece was 6 feet of knitted work, sewn to a metal bar at one end and attached to the knitting loom at the other. Placed beside it was instructions inviting people to knit a few rows themselves. The placement in the gaol was directly across from the gallows (where the rope still hangs from a cross beam) and Cold Comofrt directly mirrored this. The work was an attempt to inject some warmth and humanity into the cold, solid gaol. As the piece developed, it introduced growth and movement into a place devoid of life and hope. Cold Comfort references care packages sent to prisoners and refugees while the act of knitting itself creates a bridge between the participants and each other, between the participants and those who lived and worked in this place. Labour intensive repetitive tasks were often given to prisoners to break their spirit and wear them down, with Cold Comfort I instead wished to provide a calm, gentle task to allow for space for contemplation.

Due to insulation we had blown in the attic last year, we had to install CFL's in the ceiling spotlights to reduce the temperature. I'm not much a fan of CFL's, as they are still not a very good bulb (slow warm up, far less than advertised life, expensive, and questionable carbon footprint reduction as a result of much higher manufacturing effort and said short lifespans). They are useful in some situations where they'll deliver good results, but they are not a universal solution, IMHO- still waiting for LED lights to come down in price for that.
These spotlights take about 2 minutes to come to full brightness- I noticed that when I first turn them on, the end of the spiral internal bulb is not yet glowing, so thought it would make an interesting picture.
