UFO in Dealey Plaza?
A treasure trove of priceless photographs was recently found dumped under a bridge in South Fort Worth, Texas. The pictures, which deal with Texas history, may have been stolen from the Tarrant County Black Historical and Genealogical Society five years ago. The photos also include this image of President John F. Kennedy's motorcade passing through Dealey Plaza in Dallas, just moments before Lee Harvey Oswald opened fire from the nearby Texas Book Depository.

Pablo Picasso, Les Demoiselles d’Avignon, oil on canvas, 1907 (MoMA)
"One of the most important canvases of the twentieth century, Picasso’s great breakthrough painting Les Demoiselles d’Avignon was constructed in response to several significant sources. First amongst these was his confrontation with Cézanne’s great achievement at the posthumous retrospective mounted in Paris a year after the artist’s death in 1907. The retrospective exhibition forced the young Picasso, Matisse and many other artists to contend with the implications of Cézanne’s art. Matisse's Bonheur de Vivre of 1906 was one of the first of many attempts to do so, and the newly completed work was quickly purchased by Leo & Gertrude Stein and hung in their living room so that all of their circle of avant-garde writers and artists could see and praise it. And praise it they did. Here was the promise of Cézanne fulfilled—and one which incorporated lessons learned from Seurat and Van Gogh, no less! This was just too much for the young Spaniard.By all accounts, Picasso’s intensely competitive nature literally forced him to out do his great rival. Les Demoiselles D’Avignon is the result of this effort."

John Coltrane, Cannonball Adderley, Miles Davis and Bill Evans working on the Kind of Blue sessions 1959

“It was because of Bill [Evans]’s influence, I think, that I always had classical music on around the house. It was so soothing to think and work by. I mean people would come by and expect to hear a lot of jazz on the box, but I wasn’t into that at the time and a lot of people were shocked to hear me listening to classical music all the time, you know, Stravinsky, Arturo Michelangeli, Rachmaninoff, Isaac Stern.” -MIles Davis

CODEX SERAPHINIANUS is an encyclopedia of a made-up universe, written and illustrated by Luigi Serafini in the 1970s. It is an imaginary record of a strange world written in an invented language, divvied up into 11 chapters. The first section appears to describe the natural world, dealing with flora, fauna, and physics. The second deals with the humanities, the various aspects of human life: clothing, history, cuisine, architecture and so on.
