#Transience
a potent statement on the transience of identity and being

The mid-century rise of automobile tourism changed the rhythm of the night. Motels glowed bright along quiet town streets, becoming temporary shelter for a nation on the move. Rooms for Tourists (1945) shows modern transience lit against old settled stillness.

In 1918, Vienna grieved its artistic titans: Klimt, Schiele, Wagner, and Moser. By November, its empire was also gone.

Klimt’s gold dazzles, but beneath the surface, he painted the sore truth of autumn.

Everything that begins is haunted by its end. 🧵👇 #artbots #klimt

“The transience of tulips is a reminder to live fully, for beauty is brief and time, relentless.” – Emily Dickinson

the permanence you crave was the transience all along!

Soooooooooo much going on in this image - layers of symbolism, whispers of transience, traces of worship. 💓

Tenure is an affront to the true Way, a naive denial of the essential transience of all things
VS.
Tenure is a gesture toward the eternal within the temporal, an outpost of the City of God among the ruins of the City of Man

wanted to yap about my traveler Kira. I put a lot of my rootlessness and transience into her story, so it means a lot to me. She's an Ionian/Noxian mix from the Ionian archipelago. Here she is with some flowers from her homeland. Yeah, she's an Arcane OC.

even know how you die. The mountain must respect the flowers and the grass, at least in aggregate, because their transience can overturn its permanence."

I have lived in four countries, and perhaps I shall inhabit others still. Yet I have gradually understood, and almost painfully felt, that home is nowhere but in the fragile illusion of belonging. As E. once said, home is a bird’s nest: a shelter woven from transience, destined to be abandoned.

Bruno Martins recasts Saint-Saëns’ “The Swan” as an exquisite paradox: a melody born for the cello’s unbroken breath must now survive the harpsichord’s fleeting decay. Beneath its pearled articulation, the familiar rippling harmonies become a study in transience—Romantic longing in Baroque light. 🦢🎹

“…the sad underlining of the transience of life, our finite existence, crystalises the Japanese notion of mono no aware which has been translated as ‘the sadness of things’. For all his highfalutin taste for theory Sakamoto has no issue with targeting the tear ducts, the clutch in the throat.”
The Sadness of Things: The Life And Art Of Ryuichi Sakamoto | The Quietus
The English publication of Ryuichi Sakamoto's memoir, Music Sets you Free, coincides with an exhition at Hamburger Bahnhof in Berlin. Together, they prove a fitting testament to one of the great musical minds of the twentieth century

the transience of it all, assuming that copies shipped equates to relevance, guarantees that anything in particular that annoys the hell outta you or me will also be washed away in favor of something i don't give a shit about. silver linings!

the good news: i finally signed a lease on an apartment, so after 6+ months of transience i will have a place to put all my shit that's been gathering dust in a storage unit :D

the bad news: i might have to start a gofundme for moving expenses :(

Long and extensive,

Laundromats combine a ton of elements. They're public but anonymous, mundane but intimate, dirty but clean. they involve rhythmic motion and fluids, theres community, poverty, transience...

and thats without getting into associations from intimate clothing.

Faszinierende Vergänglichkeit einer Sonnenblume. 😍
Aber gleichzeitig auch ein leiser Anfang ... ✨️

Fascinating transience of a sunflower.
But at the same time, it's also a quiet beginning. 🌻

The quiet of the rush, the slow falling of leaves carrying echoes of past years. Time flows on, and we are just temporary witnesses to this silent transformation.
​Life is a brief, dark dream between two eternities. 🖤

thinking of “non-places” and placemaking

I live in an quirky, confusing and opaque old manor house

I think about the lack of signs for our many visitors, and how that clashes with accessibility

but a frictionless environment might also feel soulless

This first selection shares poetic encounters with other beings, and her second post will reflect on changing experiences of places and times, the pull of stories, the transience of moments.

2hu platform fighter concepts

Makes me wish even more that either Fractured Transience or that Touhou Super Smash Battles concept were still a thing.

Chungking Express honestly is an emotionally heartfelt movie that was able to connect with me in a lot of meaningful ways that I actually felt something, especially as it's what made me realize the circumstances of time itself, and how heartbreak and isolation can really affect us in transience,
