"I marvel at how detached it is in viewpoint, eccentric in detail, largely devoid of emotional power. In that way it mirrors the remembered experience more closely than one might imagine. Time, and repeated screenings, have endowed the memory with a menace the original did not possess."

Today, I decided which garments to bring out for my Victorian underwear presentation next week.
Imagine a fan-art museum --- I don't think I could handle the excitement
Imagine two hundred years from now, some teenager seeing the art and wanting to read the books and discover the movies and feeling that epic vastness that comes with those worlds -- and shipping and fangirling as we did before them

Today’s Google Doodle features an isometric illustration of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, above which are six frames.

Japan’s New Kadokawa Culture Museum is Housed in an Angular, Granite Structure Designed by Kengo Kuma

On level four, the multifunctional space can be transformed into a performance venue through projection mapping.
