The book is Oligarch from Ursa Major, by Tatyana Ustinova. Wonder how it ended up on that park bench in the rain.

Reflex #4: Photosynthesis
“Photosynthesis (/ˌfoʊtəˈsɪnθəsɪs/ FOH-tə-SINTH-ə-sis) is a system of biological processes by which photosynthetic organisms, such as most plants, algae, and cyanobacteria, convert light energy, typically from sunlight, into the chemical energy necessary to fuel their activities.” (Wikipedia, 14.03.2024)
Reflex #4 continues explorations of turning monochrome photos into color images via Riso-printing: Synthesising multi-layer colour images from one black-and-white negative.
Printed and available for sale at the nachladen.

Postchristmas goes forth
Is it not delightful to have friends coming from distant quarters? (attributed to Confucius)
Imagine my delight when I received an email by Australian singer Anna Smyrk, asking if she could use one of the photos of my postchristmas series for the cover art of her single “January makes me sad” (2023). Given that the song includes a line about dead christmas trees lining the street, I was more than happy to comply.

Last Postchristmas
Nun war es zum letzten Mal (?) wieder so weit:
Vorweihnachtszeit ist postchristmas-Zeit. Am Samstag 02.12. wurde die Ausstellung “Last Postchristmas” im nachladen mit Lesungen aus dem dazugehörigen Zine eröffnet.
Zu sehen waren wie gewohnt Weihnachtsbäume nach Weihnachten schon in der Vorweihnachtszeit. Das Zine ist (während der Weihnachtssaison) im nachladen-Onlineshop erhältlich.
