Me and Sylvia at the Memorial (April 2009)

READIN

Jeremy's journal

Finding a way to talk about the reading experience is, I've realised, the greatest pleasure of writing; where it ends is of no importance.

READIN

READIN started out as a place for me to keep track of what I am reading, and to learn (slowly, slowly) how to design a web site.

There has been some mission drift here and there, but in general that's still what it is. Some of the main things I write about here are reading books, listening to (and playing) music, and watching the movies. Also I write about the work I do with my hands and with my head; and of course about bringing up Sylvia.

The site is a bit of a work in progress. New features will come on-line now and then; and you will occasionally get error messages in place of the blog, for the forseeable future. Cut me some slack, I'm just doing it for fun! And if you see an error message you think I should know about, please drop me a line. READIN source code is PHP and CSS, and available on request, in case you want to see how it works.

See my reading list for what I'm interested in this year.

READIN has been visited approximately 236,737 times since October, 2007.

🦋 Dream Blogging

the flower of my dream
is red and gold and ocher
evaporating
Last night I was at work, trying to craft the perfect search for news articles containing images of flower petals; that is to say, the search which would return every valid hit and no false positives. This was quite tricky but did not seem as impossible as it does to my waking eye. The closing image of the dream was a computer screen; columns of text surrounding a picture of a flower, deep red petals radiating outward from a yellow center. The petals were peeling slowly up off the screen and floating into the æther.

➪ The govern­ment of Bhutan is changing metrics: it will no longer grade govern­­ment pro­grams based on their economic effects, but based on their contribution to national happiness.
➪ paledave of Orbis Quintus posts some notes on the novellas of Agota Kristof, makes them sound very much worthwhile.
