Lettre sur les Aveugles ll, 1974
About the title of this painting:
"Diderot's celebrated Lettre sur les aveugles à l'usage de ceux qui voient ("Letter on the Blind") (1749), introduced him to the world as a daringly original thinker. The subject is a discussion of the interrelation between man's reason and the knowledge acquired through perception (the five senses)." Wikipedia

I have met semi-literate village intellectuals with a lot of wisdom and highly educated scholars not in control of their motivations. The relationship between wisdom and knowledge is a tricky one. Let us try this formulation: wisdom without knowledge is an impossibility, knowledge without wisdom is vacuous. The point here really is the definition of knowledge or, more precisely, the privileging of a certain type of knowledge (let us call it, for lack of a better term, the academic variety) over other types. Such other types may be emotional knowledge, or social and cultural abilities. The whole sector of artistic expression should be mentioned as well. Just to make the point again: wisdom is based on knowledge, it is not a "return to childhood". So, little cherub, go out into this world and make yourself knowledgeable, you might get wisdom, too.

Knowledge is no matter of time. If you have good books You have the key to knowledge. And knowledge is power.
I was amazed by the ceiling in this room, which symbolized for me the Tree of Knowledge at the Gottesman Research Library and Learning Center of the Museum of Natural History in New York. It was designed by Studio Gang, the international and urban practice design firm led by Jeanne Gang, and was reopened in 2023.
A project by Ildefons Cerdà and another by Josep Amargós in 1894 proposed to convert Montjuïc into a residential area. Another idea for the celebration of the exhibition in Montjuïc was proposed in 1909 when Manuel Vega i March suggested that the culminating point of the development should be ‘a great Temple of Art, a summary and compendium of our most prodigious knowledge’. Finally, in 1913, it was decided that Montjuïc would be the definite location for the Exhibition of Electric Industries, promoted by the industry and the city council of Barcelona.

The Forth Bridge was opened in 1890, having been 8 years in the construction. It was started in the knowledge that, given the poor safety standards of the time, men would die in the process. At its peak, approximately 4,600 workers were employed in the bridge's construction.
As of 2009 it was recorded that 73 men lost their lives in accidents. A memorial on shore records their names and occupations.
Two new bridges have since been constructed nearby: The Forth Road Bridge and The Queensferry Crossing.
For me, this original bridge is the most 'handsome' and characterful. We visited on a late autumn evening and stayed for sunset. The gathering dusk gave a sombre and reflective mood.

A classic camera resting on the pages of the timeless Enciclopedia Treccani—a perfect pairing of two treasures that preserve history. One captures moments through a lens, while the other captures the world through words and knowledge.
Together, they remind us that storytelling comes in many forms: the click of a shutter or the turn of a page. 📚✨

Национальный технический университет Украины «Киевский политехнический институт имени Игоря Сикорского».
май 2019: Возле корпуса Киевского политехнического института (КПИ) больше нет деревянной скульптуры под названием “Ступени познания”. Предположительно, ее демонтировали по причине гниения дерева.
Деревянная скульптура “Ступени познания” располагалась на территории КПИ. Скульптура была вырезана из посаженного в конце XIX века бука. Дерево было высотой более 25 метров с обхватом 3,4 метра. Весной 2012 года его сломала гроза, и из него было решено сделать скульптуру. Композиция представляла собой высокую (7 метров) стопку книг, которую сверху украшают металлические элементы – шапка магистра и свисающий галстук. Создатели уверяли, что “Ступени познания” должны были простоять как минимум 25 лет.

----------------------------- JESUS ✝️ SAVES-------------------------------
SALVATION THROUGH FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST - ALONE!
12 Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved."
❤️❤️ IT'S ALL JESUS AND NONE OF OURSELVES! ❤️❤️
16 I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the SALVATION of everyone WHO BELIEVES: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. 17 For in the gospel a RIGHTEOUSNESS FROM GOD IS REVEALED, a righteousness that is by FAITH FROM FIRST TO LAST, just as it is written: "THE RIGHTEOUS WILL LIVE BY FAITH." (Romans 1:16-17)
16 KNOW that a man is NOT justified by observing the law, but by FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST. So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be JUSTIFIED BY FAITH in CHRIST and NOT by observing the law, BECAUSE BY OBSERVING THE LAW NO ONE WILL BE JUSTIFIED. (Galatians 2:16)
1. Now, brothers, I want to remind you of the gospel I preached to you, which you received and on which you have taken your stand. 2. BY THIS GOSPEL YOU ARE SAVED, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have believed in vain.
3. For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4. that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, 5. and that he appeared to Peter, and then to the Twelve. 6. After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers at the same time, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep. 7. Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles, 8. and last of all he appeared to me also, as to one abnormally born.
9. For I am the least of the apostles and do not even deserve to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10. But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without effect. No, I worked harder than all of them--yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me. 11. Whether, then, it was I or they, this is what we preach, and this is what you believed. (1 Corinthians 15:1-11)
7. Therefore Jesus said again, "I tell you the truth, I am the gate for the sheep. 8. All who ever came before me were thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them. 9. I am the gate; whoever enters through me WILL BE SAVED. He will come in and go out, and find pasture. 10. The thief comes only to STEAL and KILL and DESTROY; I have come that they may have LIFE, and have it to the FULL. (John 10:7-10)
1 Brothers, my heart's desire and prayer to God for the Israelites is that they may be saved. 2 For I can testify about them that they are zealous for God, but their zeal is not based on knowledge. 3 Since they did not know the righteousness that comes from God and sought to establish their own, they did not submit to God's righteousness. 4 Christ is the end of the law so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes.
5 Moses describes in this way the righteousness that is by the law: "The man who does these things will live by them." 6 But the righteousness that is by faith says: "Do not say in your heart, 'Who will ascend into heaven?'" (that is, to bring Christ down) 7 "or 'Who will descend into the deep?'" (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). 8 But what does it say? "The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart," that is, the word of faith we are proclaiming: 9 That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. 11 As the Scripture says, "Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame." 12 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile--the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, 13 for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." (Romans 10:1-13)
Jesus came to bring spiritual LIFE to the spiritually dead and set the captives FREE! FREE from RELIGION, ERROR and outright LIES, so WE might serve THE LIVING GOD! In SPIRIT and in TRUTH!
So you'll KNOW, and not think you're to bad for God to love. The Christian LIFE isn't about how good WE are, because NONE of us are! It's about how GOOD JESUS IS! Because JESUS LOVES US, so much he died in our place and took the punishment for all of our sins on himself. The wages of sin is DEATH, and Jesus took the death WE so richly deserved for us and died in our place. The good news is, there's no more punishment for sin left. WE, you and I were all born forgive as a result of the crucifixion of God himself on the cross that took away the sins of the whole world. All we have to do is believe it, and put your Faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ. That my friends is REAL UNCONDITIONAL LOVE! YOU ARE LOVED. ❤️ ✝️ ❤️

The internet is a “mirage of knowledge” with an inexhaustible supply of “facts” to confirm any bias. It “encourages not only the illusion that we are all equally competent” but also the illusion “that we are all peers.”4 Since our society is based on the principle that we are all equal, we are encouraged to believe that everyone’s opinion is equally valid, regardless of whether it is based on actual knowledge. Reporters routinely ask ordinary people for their opinions, and “talking heads” on news programs spend hours speculating and pontificating on matters of which they have no direct knowledge, their comments based on presumptions with no attempt even to hide their biases. Any idea of maintaining a clear line between fact and opinion seems to have disappeared.

You see, I started this project for reasons unlike what most of you have described: better knowledge of your camera, a way to hone your skills, etc., etc. Me? I really did not see any point in having three hundred and sixty five photographs of myself. But, here’s how it happened:
Last summer I drove from my life in California back to my childhood home in Ohio. The decision to move home was based on necessity, not want. Over the course of the four-day cross-country drive, WITH MY MOTHER, I realized I was going to need one hell of an outlet if I was going to survive this transition year. During this drive across country, I also realized that not only would I need an outlet, a safe-haven, a secret-hide-out from my everyday life back home, I realized I would need some friends. Not one of my friends from high school or growing up was still around town. The whole drive I thought about the 365 projects I’d seen on Flickr, and by the time I got half way home, I’d decided that’s what I needed to do. I even convinced my mom on the drive that I needed a DSLR… you know… as an investment? Uh-huh. And a 365 was born on the night of August 16, 2008… the day my cross-continental drive came to an end and I was officially home. One year ago.
What I didn’t realize was just how much of an outlet this would be. I like to think of it as the one room in my house where no one can find me. What else I didn’t realize was… you people would become more than online-acquaintances. You would become friends, people I actually desire to meet.
It’s funny, this project, and what it does to you that you don’t expect. I’ve learned a lot about myself and my life over this past year (not just through the 365, lets not be dramatic), and I think maybe I’ve even learned a little photography along the way.
Thanks to everyone who has stopped by at one point or another over the past year.
Love,
Erin
