Nova Speaks
Hi all,
Here’s what’s been happening odyssey-wise around town, whether it be in NYC, Athens, Alexandria, Sicily or Outer space:
For those into graffiti or street signs, you have a piece of a mural by Cekis from the Brooklyn Afro-Punk festival, Tony Anny and Up in Catania, Obama in Caltagirone, and an unfulfilled prophecy from Williamsburg, Brooklyn (yes, I’ve really been traveling).
I ponder what could be the loneliest taxi stand in NYC… hint… alternate title for the blog: tits, tips and then a taxi.
JPlogan, Bianca and Nova salsa dance in a synagogue, while Narcissus incarnates as DR fire-hydrant guy who prefers to dance with his own reflection (and not the lady he’s got dangling on his arm).
Cities are the people that make them… so demonstrates Lawrence Durrell in his sensual, The Alexandria Quartet, a series of books that gives you a glimpse of a very personal Alexandria through a handful of its entangled inhabitants. This writing is pure indulgence of the senses.
We talk about things that work in two cities: Athens (temples, ruins, coffee, fresh produce, beaches and good people) and Syracuse of Sicily (ubiquitous rent-a-bike stations for your mobility needs around the city).
And how can I not sound-off on the Sci-Fi channel’s idiotic transformation to the “Syfy” channel, taking us further into the frontier of brainless, branded stupidity.
A reminder of how this works:
