The last good Instagram account
It is a universally recognized truth that social networks are a bad atmosphere. Fortunately, there is still an Instagram account that is worth following that it is equally incisive, fun and scathing today as when it was founded in 2016: each outfit (@Everyoutfitonsatc). Originally conceived as a tribute to Sex and cityIconic fashion, each outfit has become a broader cultural criticism and has generated a podcast of the same name that I love to listen while I run. Sex and city It may have finished, but each outfit is forever.
Glorious feats, By Ferdia Lennon
Glorious exploits It is one of those rare books that manage to be so fun and deeply moving, which is not a feat. Set in the old sicily, it tells the story of the unemployed potters Lampo and Gelon’s great plan to organize the Greek tragedy Medea with a cast of defeated Athenians who have been imprisoned in quarries on the outskirts of Syracuse. The old backdrop combined with the contemporary Irish dialogue of the characters (the author was born in Dublin) makes it different from everything I have read before; It is so ambitious that it is difficult to believe that it is Lennon’s debut novel. Completely absorbed.
Life drawing
The depressing art wave generated by AI flooded the Internet in recent years has inspired me to explore exactly the opposite and make art the ancient path. My art teacher at the university always said that the best way to learn the correct proportions of the human body was to draw it in person, so I began to attend classes near where I live in London. Pencil and paper are generally my means of choice. Spending a few hours interpreting what you are in front of you in your own artistic style is really gratifying, and you have the additional advantage of being completely without a screen. I can’t recommend it enough.
