As If It Really Matters: October 2008
http://asifitreallymatters.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
As If It Really Matters. Saturday, October 04, 2008. Especially this one, it's huge. So had to got to the Gallery of Modern Art elsewhere in the park. It was OK, if rather dominated by some bloke whose one idea was that large means good. There was some interesting pieces behind him, though, particularly from the Italian wave of Impressionists.

As If It Really Matters: To London To See The Queen
http://asifitreallymatters.blogspot.com/2010/02/to-london-to-see-queen.html
As If It Really Matters. Sunday, February 28, 2010. To London To See The Queen. Well, not exactly. To see my friend Cara actually, who may or may not enjoy being called a queen. And certainly not to see Queen: The Musical, though I enjoyed the bombastic Freddie Mercury statue which some lunatic has erected over the theatre doors. I had a very good day out, appreciating as ever London's beauties and architectural vainglory. A few points stuck out:. Cara remarked that is shows modern art's immense capacity...

As If It Really Matters: December 2010

As If It Really Matters. Wednesday, December 22, 2010. There are many aspects to Christmas in films and adverts which annoy me. It's always snowing; everyone can sing carols perfectly; nobody wears the stupefied, semi-drunk expression so characteristic of Christmas Day; there's never a vegetarian alternative to a roasted turkey with stuffing up its arse. But one image in particular has an insurmountable gap from reality. The wrapping of the presents. Here's what is always missing from the scene:. F) the ...

As If It Really Matters: March 2010
http://asifitreallymatters.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
As If It Really Matters. Thursday, March 18, 2010. Lying awake at 6am, having been wrenched from happy dreams by the dawn chorus, I decided – No, I'll be precise here. Staggering around in a sleep-deprived daze the next day, mind wandering at random, I decided the following. The dawn chorus is the equivalent of a night club. The attendees kick up a hell of a racket at anti-social hours in the hope of copulating. Saturday, March 13, 2010. Name, Rank and Serial Number. I learned one interesting thing from ...

As If It Really Matters: Venus & Olympia
http://asifitreallymatters.blogspot.com/2010/02/venus-olympia.html
As If It Really Matters. Sunday, February 21, 2010. Titian may have hired a prostitute too and may even have boinked her. Otherwise, though, his. Yet the eroticism of the painting can't be denied either. Make what you will of the expression on her placid face – the faintest of smiles, possibly a hint of an invitation? A courtesan presenting her fat arse for the taking, and Corregio's Jupiter and Io,. A woman being raped by a cloud. For God's sake – confirmed how rare a truly erotic nude is. Nudes still e...

As If It Really Matters. Wednesday, July 15, 2009. Nature Is Closed For The Forseeable Future. Now, I'm a little shaky on the American national parks, but I gather that they're not quite like the British ones. They're the only rural places where people are allowed to wander freely, the rest being private farmland with no rights of way. Arnie is basically wanting to close nature. I guess there are two possible things Arnie could do. He could simply fire all the park rangers, close down the information...
