[Infografía] El odio entre los escritores clásicos: las rivalidades de la literatura en inglés. Actualidad [Infografía] El odio entre los escritores clásicos: las rivalidades de la literatura en inglés The Huffington Post publicó una infografía con algunas de las críticas más duras que autores clásicos angloparlantes emitieron, en algún momento, sobre otro escritor.
En muchas queda patente el poco aprecio que estos autores contemporáneos sentían entre sí. Leer una crítica destructiva de un escritor sobre algún colega siempre da razones para sospechar. Incluso en esos casos en los que la crítica se apoya en los postulados estéticos más esclarecidos. Cuando leemos que Ernest Hemingway dice algo como: “pobre Faulkner, cree que las grandes emociones vienen de las palabras grandes”; y que William Faulkner a su vez piensa de Hemingway que “Nunca sea ha sabido que use una palabra que pudiera obligar al lector a revisar el diccionario”, es posible tener la impresión de que asistimos a algo que dista de la crítica y se ha transformado en una enconada y literaria rivalidad. Enigmatic, witty poetry formed by the titles of stacked books [11 pictures] Artist Nina Katchadourian gathers books and orders them to make pithy and sometimes poignant little poems.

BRIAN GRIFFIN DIES. An Investigation of What Makes Creative People Tick. How Creatives Work. Woody Allen loves the writing process.
He says he can get up in the morning and go write in his room. He is a workaholic. As soon as he has finished a script he cannot relax until he begins working on the next one. He doesn’t believe in taking any time off, averaging one movie every year or so. As a director, comedian, screenwriter of his own films, playwright, and writer of New Yorker articles, even a clarinetist in a jazz band, he has made waves in every creative direction he has delved into.

Underneath The Juniper Tree's Spring issue - 2013 by Tex Texillian Armadillion. Imagine Peace Tower. Coordinates: Imagine Peace Tower with lights on.
The Tower consists of 15 searchlights with prisms that act as mirrors, reflecting the column of light vertically into the sky from a 10-metre wide wishing well.[1] It often reaches cloudbase and indeed can be seen penetrating the cloud cover. On a clear night it appears to reach an altitude of at least 4000m. The power for the lights is provided by Iceland's unique geo-thermal energy grid.[2] It uses approximately 75 kW of power. Buried underneath the light tower are upward of 500,000 written wishes that Ono gathered over the years in another project, called "Wish Trees". Construction of the tower started on 9 October 2006 when Ono dedicated the location, and it was officially unveiled on the same date in 2007.

55 Celebrities Whose Real Names Will Surprise You. You might not have ever heard of “Maurice Micklewhite,” “Olivia Jane Cockburn” or “Diane Hall” — but you’ve certainly heard of the actors who were born with these names.
When the Hollywood system started, people commonly took simplified versions of their names to make them easier for people to say. Doris Day is much simpler than “Doris Mary Ann Kappelhoff” and Clayton Holmes Grissom picked “Clay Aiken” when signing up for American Idol — because it was just more memorable. Or if you’re Albert Brooks, there’s no fucking possible way you can use your real name — because…well, you’ll see. Here are 55 people whose real names might surprise you.

How to Survive the Zombie Apocalypse Using Science. In the event of a zombie apocalypse it will probably help to have: a baseball bat, a gun, a chainsaw and a plethora of blunt objects. Also, it helps to possess a strong grasp of neuroscience. The quick, handy guide above (not to be confused with the one from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) shows many of the neurological problems zombies have and how the non-undead can exploit those weaknesses. It includes every malady, from ghouls’ slow motor skills to terrible amnesia. Believe it or not, the guide to surviving the zombie apocalypse is actually derived from real neuroscience.
The charts are largely based on a presentation (see video below) by UC Berkeley neuroscientist Bradley Voytek, who re-created what the zombie brain would look like based on cognitive problems observed in films like 28 Days Later, Shaun of the Dead and The Return of the Living Dead.

Jerry's Map. A Map of the World According to Illustrators and Storytellers. By Maria Popova “Cartography can be an incredible form of escapism, as maps act as proxies for experiences.” “Could it have been the drawing of maps that boosted our ancestors beyond the critical threshold which the other apes just failed to cross?
,” Richard Dawkins famously speculated. Maps have undoubtedly changed the world as both objects of art and tools of political power. They help us understand time and make sense of the universe. In A Map of the World According to Illustrators and Storytellers (public library), the fine folks of Gestalten — who have a knack for pictorial magic and visual storytelling — collect more than 500 maps by artists, illustrators, and designers representing the creative zeitgeist of modern cartography around the world, ranging from the astoundingly accurate and detailed to the marvelously abstract and utopian.
