Encyclopedia of the Unknowingness
Please don’t be shocked, but yes this is arleady the second post about a book in kind a short time (at least for normal Sascha-like behaviour)…
The Encyclopedia of the Unknowingness, unfortunately only available in German (“Lexikon des Unwissens”) so far, tries to describe several of today’s unsolved miracles.
It gives an introduction to subjects like the lifecycle of eels, dark matter, yawning, ball-lightnings, the functionality of sticky tape, the Riemann hypothesis, and many more…
A bit too many “funny” comments in my opinion though… otherwise very interesting!
Measuring the World
In the same manner as I use to comment movies I’ve seen I am gonna start it for books now, even though this will happen by far less often.
Anyway… During my holidays in Greece I read a book written by Daniel Kehlmann called “Measuring the World”.
It’s I nice book about Mr. Gauss (the one with the distribution, etc.) and Mr. Humboldt (the brother of the founder of my university) that Troels recommended to read.
It’s originally a German book, that’s why the picture/link is German. For all others heres the English link even though it’s on the German Amazon.
Transformers
Yesterday I watched the new Transformers movie… It’s kind of good, actually exactly as I expected it, which is good enough… one of my favourite critics said something like following about the movie: “after loud comes simply loader”. Which is probably right… but I guess that’s one of the reasons you go to action movies?!
In addition it was a great revival of the time I got up at six on the weekend to see e.g. the Transformers cartoons ;-)
btw this picture/link is for the original “Transformers – The Movie”, not the one that’s in cinemas right now…
New/old webpage & Adam’s Apples
This is supposed to be a little life sign of mine, to show you that I’m still around!
These days I just noticed that in time I am very busy I always seem to start create/change my personal webpage… and there we go!
After some complains about my TV design, I decided to (almost) go back to my original webpage design… with some new features in the gallery and an increased content area!
Also this week I watched another great scandinavian (more precise danish) movie… Adam’s Apples! As usual very special and recommendable…
