enchantedengland: Ooooooh this is killing me here **falls over dead** I had the BEST DAY EVER when I went to Eastbourne and hiked around Birling Gap and Beachy Head and SAW THESE CLIFFS AND THAT LIGHTHOUSE and hung over the edge like an idiot well we won’t talk about that. Anyway, I have a feather from a seagull and pebbles from the Eastbourne pier and a lot of chalky cliff pieces (they were ALREADY BROKEN OFF. Don’t think I would ever disturb the most beautiful place on earth SUSSEX) and now I am looking at them sadly, so sadly, yet hopefully…. yes, a flutter of desperate hope arises within my bosom, that I may one day return and NEVER EVER LEAVE.

Time-Stacked Landscape Photography That Mimics Impressionist Paintings by Matt Molloy 

Canadian photographer Matt Molloy uses the technique of timelapse to gather different shades of the sky in one location to form a “time-stack,” which records the progression of time. Instead of composing an image from one day, Molloy is able to collect the multitude of shades of color and patterns through the progression of time. Instead of showcasing what the sky looks like one sunny, clear day, we see the sky under different temperatures and conditions in a single image. By using the “time stack” technique the end results mimic one of an impressionist painting.

Traditional and Contemporary Japanese Culture Collides in Striking Photographs by RK

Tokyo-based photographer RK explores the far reaches of Japan, as well as neighboring Asian countries, shooting images that capture both timeless and of-the-moment scenes.  RK often includes signs of life in his landscape images, whether a fisherman casting a line beneath a vibrant Japanese maple tree, or a carefree skateboarder cruising down a paved road with Hokkaido looming in the distance. The photographer also highlights the densely-packed nature of life in Japan, from masses of commuters forming a sea of umbrellas to shop owners surrounded by huge selections of neatly organized inventory.

Languages dying off around the globe

Only two people on Earth are known to speak the Ayapanec language, Manuel Segovia and Isidro Velasquez, old men of few words who are somewhat indifferent to each other’s company.

When Segovia and Velasquez pass away, their language also will go to the grave. It will mark the demise of a unique way of describing the lush landscape of southern Mexico and thinking about the world.

Ayapanec isn’t alone in its vulnerability. Some linguists say that languages are disappearing at the rate of two a month. Half of the world’s remaining 7,000 or so languages may be gone by the end of this century, pushed into disuse by English, Spanish and other dominating languages.

Two (obvious) points:

  • Fewer languages means fewer alternative ways of describing the world means fewer ways to imagine and interpret the world means an easier time managing and manipulating how people view the world means an easier time managing and manipulating people.
  • 57+10+11+9+10+4 = 101%
