Travel Journal: Songs That Make Me Cry
http://architecturetraveljournal.blogspot.com/2013/11/songs-that-make-me-cry.html
Songs That Make Me Cry. From Lina Wertmüller's Swept Away. Are the gorgeous stand outs from this soundtrack. Both of these arrangements evoke a kind of delicious horror sound with that deep Argento-esque romantic tragedy flavor. The voice works a haunting embodiment of a salty wind tossed ocean wave, an enchanting, malefic seductress. One listen is never enough. From Wong Kar Wai's In The Mood For Love. Michael Galasso's Angkor Wat Theme Final. Jamie C. Teich. In the Mood For Love. Songs That Make Me Cry.

http://architecturetraveljournal.blogspot.com/2013/07/the-man-without-past-2002-wins-my-heart.html
The Man Without A Past, 2002, Wins My Heart. After tonight's bike ride we made a spicy batch of iced chai, homemade pizza dough, and chocolate chip habañero almond cookies. Oh and we watched this incredible piece of art which made me just so damn happy:. All I want to do is watch films written and made by Finnish director Aki Kaurismäki. There are a million reasons why. Find out for yourself and enjoy. Jamie C. Teich. The Man Without a Past. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Travel Journal: TJ Clark, Manet, and Hidden Messages of Academic Support
http://architecturetraveljournal.blogspot.com/2014/10/tj-clark-manet-and-hidden-messages-of.html
TJ Clark, Manet, and Hidden Messages of Academic Support. In my readings this semester I have noticed, on several occasions, some embedded notes of support in art historical texts. Yes. Could they be purposefully included by the author, knowing their reader is probably overtired, overstressed, and one moment away from a jump off the bridge (for the fresh air! Manet, the great Realist painter, discusses his own self-doubt/self-pity with French poet Baudelaire. So once again I am obliged to speak to you ab...

Travel Journal: Brasil 4-Ever
http://architecturetraveljournal.blogspot.com/2015/05/brasil-4-ever.html
The best thing about this semester has been the work-adventure to Brasil. Even though I'm now in a deep hell pit, two weeks behind schedule on all these papers, I have a million magical memories and no regrets. This clip of live music encapsulates my feelings much better than words or images. The beginning of the best night in Vila Madalena, São Paulo. We all danced.samba, then salsa, til 4am. Thanks to SMU for hosting our seminar group in Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo. Jamie C. Teich.

Travel Journal: El Mariachi and Mexico
http://architecturetraveljournal.blogspot.com/2014/03/el-mariachi-and-mexico.html
El Mariachi and Mexico. Recently returned from number one on my top five in five years travel list, Mexico, and I'm all kinds of nostalgic about the experience. 1992 We'd seen posters all over Mexico, but I think it was for a glamorous remake (not the original with a $7,000 budget). I was blown away by how good this El Mariachi. Leading up to this film viewing, related to mariachi:. 2 In Mexico City we found dozens of roaming, rag-tag to showy peacock, mariachi groups at Plaza Garibaldi. The Walters Art ...

Travel Journal: Two Exciting Works at the Philadelphia Museum of Art
http://architecturetraveljournal.blogspot.com/2013/09/philadelphia-museum-of-art-paintings.html
Two Exciting Works at the Philadelphia Museum of Art. On my last visit to Philadelphia I found myself wandering around the great museum there (surprise surprise! I made a quick pilgrimage to some of my old faves. But as it happens with art and museums, the more you look, the higher the chance you discover something you hadn't noticed before. Of course, I was hanging around the European art galleries mostly (although I did drop in on Joseph Cornell). Agnolo Gaddi, The Legend of St. Sylvester. Tempera as a...

Travel Journal: From Watertown to Texas: How I Saw The Cure at Austin City Limits
http://architecturetraveljournal.blogspot.com/2013/10/from-watertown-to-texas-how-i-saw-cure.html
From Watertown to Texas: How I Saw The Cure at Austin City Limits. Why Can't I Be You. The Cure, 1987. Still my favorite band. By some magic I learned that we were going to be visiting friends in Austin during the Austin City Limits music festival, an outdoor festival not limited to country western, and that the headlining band was none other than The Cure ( whom I've only ever seen once before in a serendipitous Hard Rock live taping at a closed studio in NYC. 1999 Thanks to my friend Jose from FIT!

Jorge Ben For Writing Papers. Still dancing to the Brazilian sound as I finish up writing for the semester. This album, which I cannot find anywhere, is my main motivator right now (coffee, chocolate, and sunshine in one package). Please enjoy it with me! Jorge Ben, Tropical. If anyone has a lead on where I can get this on either CD or vinyl, for a reasonable price, I'd be very happy to know. Jamie C. Teich. Links to this post.
