The Vanity of Small Differences
An exhibition by Turner-Prize-winning, Grayson Perry, one of the UK’s best-known artists,
The series of six large and exuberant tapestries are inspired by 18th-century painter William Hogarth’s A Rake’s Progress.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Rake%27s_Progress
Grayson created the tapestries after his 2012 Channel 4 TV series, All in the Best Possible Taste with Grayson Perry, which journeyed through Sunderland, Tunbridge Wells and The Cotswolds to explore the British fascination with class and what is – or isn’t – deemed good taste. The artist wove the characters, incidents and objects encountered along the way into his tapestries, which are now in the Arts Council Collection.
The tapestries hang in four of the mansion’s State Rooms.

xpulsion from Number 8 Eden Close
by Grayson Perry
2012
Tim is at university studying computer science and is going steady with a nice girl from Tunbridge Wells. To the left, we see Tim's mother and stepfather, who now live on a private development and own a luxury car. She hoovers the AstroTurf lawn, he returns from a game of golf. There has been an argument and Tim and his girlfriend are leaving. They pass through a rainbow, while Jamie Oliver, the god of social mobility, looks down. They are guilty of a sin, just like Adam and Eve in Masaccio's The Expulsion from the Garden of Eden (c.1425). To the right, a dinner party is just starting. Tim's girlfriend's parents and fellow guests toast the new arrival.
Confidence is what sets you apart from others. When you are confident in everything you do, you will prosper, and people will notice.

of 9 years and a country.
The one on the left is dated 1960 and its in the Carpathian mountains of Transylvania. I did not remember having this snap but found it amongst the pictures my mother collected.
The other is from 1969 somewhere in the English countryside.
There is a funny story attached to the first one. In my penultimate year in high school we went on a school trip. A very posh affair with two wooden benches on top of an open lorry. The lorry was not in the best of shapes and on the rather steep mountain road its coolant went on the boil. We stopped to let it cool down. We all got off and milled round the lorry with the exception of yours truly and his girlfriend. We decided to venture into the forest supposedly to look for berries. We got so engrossed into each other that we did not realize that the rest of the group left, leaving us stranded.
With little choice we started walking up the mountain road having no idea as to how far we were from our destination. I kept reassuring my girlfriend that I was familiar with the place - although I omitted the fact that I was only four when I last been there.
So there we were dragging ourselves up the road when we heard a noise behind us. A peasant was bringing his horses up to pastures for the summer. After some cajoling he agreed to let us ride with him. It would be really funny if someone would have filmed the scene. Neither of us have ever mounted a horse before and these animals had never been saddled but we were willing and they were docile.
I can't recall how long it took us, but I do remember that for several days afterwards all our mates were collapsing with laughter at the site of us 'walking'.
Nevertheless, its one of those sweet and unforgettable memories.
What a difference a day can make....40 days of no rain changed overnight to a storm with winds, big rain, and cold fog. The sun umbrella was open yesterday! #cy365 253/365 'what a difference'
At the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, California. Charles Babbage's Difference Engine Number 2. Built in the 1990s according to Babbage's original 19th-century plans.
I've seen people debate the difference between Black Lives Matter, All Lives Matter, Blue (Police) Lives Matter, etc., so it's interesting to see someone get specific about a subcategory of black lives here.
Seen at the Black Lives Matter protest at Payrow Plaza in Bethlehem, PA, on June 4th, 2020. (facebook.com/LVStandsUp/photos/a.131399981664923/17623686...)
It was the first organised protest I had been to and it was a much bigger crowd than I was expecting. There wa very little protection from the sun and it was 30.5ºC (87ºF).
I was standing at the back of the crowd so I had the ability to move around with all my camera gear. Hence, it was difficult to hear what each speaker was saying because there were only some small speakers setup at the front of the speaking platform. This is something future protests should be mindful of; if you have a message to share, make sure it can be heard (through the A/V system). From what I could hear, the messages were similar to what has been expressed on social media. Something I had not heard said prior to this protest was: If you have privilege, use it. I think many of us do have privileges and I will do my best to use mine to lift those in oppression. Photography and video are one way I know how to do that.
Most people were wearing masks due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. In general, that makes me frustrated because I don't recognise anybody and not seeing someone's mouth (or someone seeing mine) inhibits the emotion they're expressing. I can be smiling ear-to-ear with sunglasses on and the person I'm looking at has a seemingly stern and dismissive appearance on their face. I can't wait for the masks to be done with.
The difference being that single points that have lots of reports (especially the approximations every few hundred feet for the subway routes) are allowed to overflow into adjacent locations instead of having their brightness clipped.
Still suffers the same problem where some points along routes are reported far more often than other points on the same route.

Charles Babbage's consuming passion, consummated after a century.
I have to admire the dedication of anybody who wanted to build this, but I also seriously question their sanity.
Even as an educational piece, it misses the mark. It's messy, noisy, slow, hard to describe, and generally doesn't work.
As Art, well, maybe.
But it is a glorious piece of work - both design and execution. Engineering, maybe not -- he was British after all, not even Scottish.
Now out for the World of SecondLife Mentor's to use and make their life easier...if you haven't tried it please do...you will see such a difference ....And thank YOU to my Sweet Husband who developed this amazing Translator for the world to come together at least here in SL and communicate. He's not only a genious at his work but also has the largest Heart in SL too...what more could anyone ask for.
Love you Thee

Sometimes you can dream big, let your mind wander, and strive for the impossible.
Other times it is more logical to stay in the present and keep yourself safe from the possible.
The difference between these two instances are the outcomes. Although everyone needs a rock in their life, they also need that person, object, place, or experience to remind them why they keep on living.
(I overdid the sharpness on purpose.)
Can you spot the difference? FGR's challenge was two photos with minor differences. One physical, 2 photoshopped.
"Sillä minä olen varma siitä,
ettei kuolema eikä elämä,
ei enkelit eikä henkivallat,
ei nykyiset eikä tulevaiset,
ei voimat,
ei korkeus eikä syvyys,
eikä mikään muu luotu
voi meitä erottaa
Jumalan rakkaudesta,
joka on Kristuksessa Jeesuksessa,
meidän Herrassamme"
"Ty jag är viss om att
varken död eller liv,
varken änglar eller andefurstar,
varken något som nu är eller något som skall komma,
varken någon makt i höjden
eller någon makt i djupet,
ej heller något annat skapat
skall kunna skilja oss
från Guds kärlek
i Kristus Jesus,
vår Herre."
"For I am persuaded,
that neither death, nor life,
nor angels, nor principalities,
nor things present, nor things to come,
nor powers,
nor height, nor depth,
nor any other created thing,
will be able to separate us
from the love of God,
which is in Christ Jesus
our Lord.."
Rom. 8:38-39
Atom and nuclear weapons in use are a force movement.
God power is invisible spiritual power that is not disturbed.
It's like when you dive in water or against waves underwater,
the water reconnects.
Has sun storm, hurricane or nuclear weapon rubbed on God?
No!

Pride.be - Pride 2018 - Your Local Power
Feeling free and at home in your neighborhood, town or city. Be and show yourself in the streets. Holding hands with the person you love and smiling at each other in public. Our personal lives occur in the public space. Considering the approaching communal elections, everyone (youngsters, seniors, families, couples and all people - no matter what gender or orientation) asks the local politicians: How do you make a difference? What do you do to improve diversity in our everyday life? Where the rain makes way for the sun, we will walk proudly under the rainbow!
We will all be heading to the voting booths for the local elections on 14th of October. Deciding which circle to colour in is an important decision. A conscious decision can lead to a better living environment in your city or municipality.
And we're not just talking about the redesign of the local park, the policies in the municipal school, or the proper functioning of the local Public Centre for Social Welfare. Your local municipal or city administration can also make a real difference and turn the place where you live into a true rainbow bubble, if that's what you'd like, of course.
So it's no wonder that this year's Pride is focusing on the local elections. Belgian Pride is putting the municipalities and cities in the limelight in 2018, or better yet, at the end of the rainbow! We want the slogan 'Your Local Power!' to encourage municipal and city administrations to enact explicit, integrated local LGBTI+ policies.
Municipalities and cities can and must make the difference. They must accept responsibility for the well-being of all their residents. Flying the rainbow flag at the local government offices during the Pride period is a symbol of this. This is also a way that the municipality or city can show their solidarity with the LGBTI+ community. This symbolic gesture is not an infringement on neutrality. On the contrary, we can only actively work on ending all forms of discrimination once there is recognition for diversity and inclusion.
Policy-makers can make the lives of many citizens that much rosier by taking both small and large actions: by introducing a diversity charter in sports clubs, by making information on gender and sexuality available at the local libraries, by providing logistical and financial support to local associations, testimonials, and courses in the municipal education system, by holding a queer film festival in the local movie theatre or cultural centre, by holding LGBTI+ actions in community centres and youth centres, by providing information on what to do if you are the victim or witness of discrimination, by offering space for intimacy and (LGBTI+) sexuality in assisted-living centres, by training local police precincts and municipal officials, by including Equal Opportunity as an explicit competence within the city administration, etc.
The list of things that cities and municipalities can do is endless. Plus, many of these actions are very easy to implement. Sometimes, your local administration only needs a little boost, and you can give them that boost in the voting booth on 14th of October. A good local administration meets the needs and requirements of all residents. What does the LGBTI+ community in your city or municipality need?
You can already send the politicians a signal that is loud and clear on Saturday, the 19th of May. Make your wishes heard during the Belgian Pride.
We hope to see you there! Everyone is welcome!
