Seven links to worthwhile thin(g/k)s

Hello dear reader,

Today’s newsletter dispatch location: Skylight Books on Vermont in Los Angeles. I stopped by this evening to pick up Albert Camus’ Lyrical and Critical Essays, but since they were out of stock, I have to browse around elsewhere. Curious to know what you’re reading this season — do let me know!

And now, here are seven links to bits of the world I have been exploring this week, shared with the hope that you will find them to be an inspiring springboard for deeper thinking.

1. Hemingway fans: Simon & Schuster has published this month a new collection of Ernest Hemingway’s short stories in connection with the PBS documentary from Ken Burns and Lynn Novick, which premieres on April 5. I last read Hemingway in high school (The Sun Also Rises), so it’ll be neat to revisit him nowadays and see how his characteristic writing style vibes with me today.

2. Conceptual walks, via Craig Mod in Ridgeline.

3. NFTs, as defined by Katie Haun. And, the dangerous trap of NFTs, as explained by Seth Godin.

4. The Poetry of Self Compassion: Revealing What is Hidden as a Gift to Others.

5. Jerry Seinfeld’s daily versus Dan Harris’s dailyish.

6. Music (which I’ll use for cooking and baking this weekend): Surprise saxophone.

7. Maria Mavropoulou: I am mesmerized by the poignancy of Maria’s visual projects, including Family Portraits and Typology of Waiting.
