The number of posts from the brand-new Jirai Kei community on Mastodon in just two days is staggering! The most popular hashtag is usually “Caturday,” but that one is nowhere close …
Getting error messages when I try to access old.reddit.com today. “Old” was the only way I could stomach the site through a browser. After reading up on what's going on with #reddit, I have to say, the story is even sillier than #twitter‘s #enshittification journey.
“The greatest subsidy in art is the sacrifice of the artist.”
Quote from the op-ed “ARS GRATIA ARTIS?” by a pseudonymous insider in Das Opernmagazin, that I got to illustrate twice, first for the original in German, and again for the English translation.
The statistics for these articles showed enormous reach and shares in social media — but zero comments. Null. Nobody working in opera dared to comment.
«Crudele? … Non mi dir»
Donna Anna's aria from W.A. Mozart's Don Giovanni. From the Greensburg Community High School’s “2021 Spring Chautauqua Virtual Concert Series” via Zoom!

Our family outing to the #opera #MadamaButterfly was a wonderful day! First picked up my family and celebrated my mother in law Claudia’s birthday with delicious, enormous pieces of cake at café Ideal in #Fulda. On the way to the #SchlosstheaterFulda we ran into @SandraFleischmann and chatted in front of backlit posters of @meganmariehart as Butterfly. We got to meet music director Per-Otto Johansson, lovely human and great artist, and then the Intendant, who personally took care of us!
