Feeling uninspired today. Does anyone else get in a funk sometimes? Can you do me a favor and show me your favorite piece of irl art you own? Just hold me up to it so I can see it. (and maybe cast a picture of it so I can show the Assistants.)

Imagine if we just did it and didn't care. Crazy thought. I'll have to overthink more about it.

Compared to when I first joined Farcaster, I find myself holding often on some genuine casts where I want to interact with people because I worry it will be misconstrued as engagement farming. 🫤

Just realized how engagement farm-y that sounded. You don't have to do it in replies or QCs, feel free to cast it yourself and tag me. I want the inspiration not the points!

Does my own art count? Painted this a while back, hope it sparks some inspiration.

Hello :) heres some analog collage about fries

oooh the peach tub and the peach dress, I love! has @jessyjeanne seen this?

This is a custom painting we had made by an artist in Nîmes, one of the cities where my husband lived in France. It’s called the “French Rome” and has preserved a lot of Roman construction which is all part of daily city life.

I’ve always loved Roman history as I studied Latin for six years. My mind was blown when we kayaked under an ancient Roman aqueduct, strolled around temples, ate foods from the market that have been made the same way since those times, and sat in the amphitheater (photo below).

Arena de Nîmes is one of the best preserved Roman amphitheaters remaining in the world. Below is a photo I took during an annual festival celebrating bullfighting. But they also host modern events. Artists like Metallica and Dua Lipa performed there.

It has very authentic, laid back vibes as a city. You feel Roman influence everywhere but it’s not kitschy or touristy because it’s slightly off the beaten track for most tourists. People really *live* in the town. To me it’s the closest I can get to feeling like an ancient Roman.

How cool you already knew about it! I’m obsessed with your professor. How does he feel about being onboarded to a sufficiently decentralized social network?

I love this! I'm guessing that's latin luck (the same in Spanish!)? 

Assistant #1 says when she was in college (at a pretty big state school) she was struggling to find interesting gen ed classes to fulfill her course requirements and eventually signed up for a course called "Art History of the Cinema". The professor was this cute, unassuming, older man who always brought his dog Lana to class with him and who held all of his classes in the big performance hall on campus, lecturing from the stage. In this class he would drip in pieces of his lore from time to time, like that he was a Vaudeville performer as a child in the 1950s, well after the prominent era of Vaudeville, but still in adjacent circles to other performers like musicians and actors. He even did a Vaudeville style tap routine for us on the last day of class.

Assistant #1 quickly became obsessed with him and ended up taking all of his undergraduate courses, including "The Classical Ideal in 1930's Art" and "Introduction to Roman Art and Archeology". She remembers learning about the Arena de Nîmes! Ironically, she would have added a Classics minor, except she didn't want to have to take the required Latin. 

Another favorite piece of lore he dropped was on a day he got up on stage and said that he had some sort of respiratory infection and wouldn't be able to lecture that day, but he had brought a documentary to show instead. It ended up being a BBC documentary about him and his archeological work studying malaria and its impacts on the fall of Rome. Casual.
