Because everyone is doing this meme right now...
Last song: Helium Vola, "In Lichter Farbe Steht der Wald". Nothing beats medieval electro!
Last film: Uhhh, not sure. I almost never watch films! I think the last one was my ten-thousandth re-watching of "Solaris". (In the version by Andrei Tarkovsky, of course.) One of my favorites. :3 Before that, or directly after, I don't quite remember, was "Queen of Katwe".
Last show: That I actually finished? The Queen's Gambit, and I loved it! (It had chess and they got it right!)
Currently watching: The Witcher. Sort of watching, anyway.
Currently reading: Ohhhh, a lot - I always read several books in parallel!
- Arkadij Naiditsch and Csaba Balogh, "Positional masterpieces of 2012 - 2015". A collection of commented chess games featuring, as the title says, particularly good positional play. It's a good book, really well-written, but positional chess still eludes me. XD
- A collection of poems by Algernon Charles Swinburne. (Again.)
- The Nibelungenlied. (Yes, also, again. I love that thing!I totally ship Volker and Hagen.)
- Alexei Shirov, "Fire on Board". Self-commented chess games by one of the more tactical players... I need that to balance that collection of positional stuff! XD
- Kevin Underhill, "The Emergency Sasquatch Ordinance". A collection of legal absurdities, by the guy who runs loweringthebar.net (which is a blog I actually read more or less regularly).
- Alexis Hall, "There will be Phlogiston". Entertaining steampunk poly romance.
- Rafael C. Gonzalez and Richard E. Woods, "Digital Image Processing". Nicely written overview of basic imaging algorithms. :)
Currently craving: Can I please have some rosemary, goat milk and honey ice cream? Right now??? VERY specific wish, but this is my favorite ice cream flavor, and the only place selling it is closed for pandemic reasons. :/
