Curating intrigue, wonder, and the will to live
Happy Morse Code Day! A language for your more discreet communication needs. In its honour, here's a coded message for you: .. .-.. -.--
vibe check
from the crypt
From elaborate rituals to hushed influence, secret societies shaped more throughout history than they let on. Read about some we’re still waiting on an invite from.
some cool art
Cinta Vidal’s paintings fold in on themselves. Her work depicts how people can share the same space but not quite the same reality.
linguistic oddity
Gone Pear-Shaped: Describes the moment things go from good to…..noticeably not. Rumor has it RAF pilots coined it for maneuvers that didn’t quite hold their shape.
a writing prompt
An unknown creature lays two eggs in the valley of a small village, then abandons them. The townspeople decide to hatch them.
dream house alert
Maximalism on its best behaviour. This Indian abode has layered textures, saturated colour, and a full courtyard carved into the living room. Colour me enchanted.
a corner of the world
Each spring, the Hallerbos Forest floor transforms into a soft, lush, endless sea of bluebells. Unconfirmed, but I suspect this place has inspired a fairytale or five.
from my lens
A slow day here could really fix me.
Location: Wakefield, Quebec
until next time...
If this email made you feel an inkling of wonder or chuckle once, it was all worth it.
Same time next week?
If you enjoyed this, consider sharing it with someone you don't hate.
Until next Monday, xoxo
