David Jones, artist and poet (1895-1974) begins his PREFACE TO THE ANATHEMATA :
'I have made a heap of all that I could find.' (1) So wrote Nennius, or whoever composed the introductory matter to Historia Brittonum. He speaks of an 'inward wound' which was caused by the fear that certain things dear to him 'should be like smoke dissipated'. Further, he says, 'not trusting my own learning, which is none at all, but partly from writings and monuments of the ancient inhabitants of Britain, partly from the annals of the Romans and the chronicles of the sacred fathers, Isidore, Hieronymous, Prosper, Eusebius and from the histories of the Scots and Saxons although our enemies . . . I have lispingly put together this . . . about past transactions, that [this material] might not be trodden under foot'. (2)
(1) The actual words are coacervavi omne quod inveni, and occur in Prologue 2 to the Historia.
(2) Quoted from the translation of Prologue 1. See The Works of Gildas and Nennius, J.A.Giles, London 1841.
We have received the following announcement from the MCA (Museum of Contemporary Art), Sydney, sent with the headline Paint in polar opposites :
If images are exhausted, where does that leave painting? Explore the past, the now and the tomorrow of painting during a series of talks presented in association with Sydney College of the Arts, University of Sydney, including Dr Jacqueline Millner and Leonhard Emmerling from the Goethe Institut, Delhi. In the galleries, Matthys Gerber’s exhibition is a wonderful opportunity to get to know the many styles of painting, from photorealism to geometric abstraction.

On December 14, 2010, Linden Tibbets, the creator of IFTTT, posted a blog post titled “ifttt the beginning...” on the IFTTT website, announcing that the new project was called IFTTT.
IFTTT is a web-based service that allows users to create chains of simple conditional statements, called "recipes", which are triggered based on changes to other web services such as Gmail, Facebook, Instagram and Pinterest.[4] IFTTT is an abbreviation of "If This Then That" (pronounced like "gift" without the "g").[5]
