we walked around the neighborhood stopping for a bit when people were watching the game on the street, got some ice cream at half, ducked into a pub for the 3rd quarter, then stood outside the sports bar down the block from our place to watch the end. gorgeous vibes everywhere :)
Shocked to hear David Hockney has died. His huge achievement was to make serious painting look effortless. He carried forward one of the most sustained investigations into vision, space and representation by any post-war artist. British art has lost a giant.
Woke up in the best mood, C train right on time, got to teach the brightest, sweetest group of 2nd graders from the Bronx about the history of New Amsterdam, about to see Maya in Oh, Mary!
New York City!!!
There’s this girl “performing” Adele at the Columbus Circle platform outside my C train so loudly that it feels like Adele is in my head. And it’s not a backing track, it’s just the normal song with Adele’s vocals at full blast, so you can barely hear her own voice over it.
