The X in Xmas
Thoughtful seasonal science post from Ctein, one of my favourite bloggers.
“Xmas morning was all about X. You never knew what was wrapped in those seductive boxes under the tree—but you knew you’d be finding out. Art’s like that. You capture that photo in your camera and you can’t really know what you’ve got until you develop the film or pull the image up on the computer. Anticipating and imagining how wonderful it’s going to be is a big part of what’s so much fun about art—you know you’ll get there, but you don’t really know where you’ll wind up. That’s the miraculous power of X.”
Enjoy your Yule, how and with whomsoever you’re spending it. I’ll be wandering down to the shore with the 5×4, I think.
