![]() ![]() and so lowell was on trend when he charted these canals on venus:Įxcept that no one else could reproduce his findings. ![]() He had a fairly popular theory about their being purposefully designed canals on mars- 1800s europe was all about industry and what mankind could build, so it made sense that humanity would see similar formations in space. he built himself an observatory because that’s what rich dudes did for fun back then ![]() In one of my art history classes i learned about this guy, percival lowell, who was a dude in the late 1800s with too much money and too much time on his hands. that there’s no definitive, general answer to how you can visually tell that everything around you lives, just that it does. small smiles, wide eyes, suppressed laughter, or even pure confusion people’s soft reactions to whatever is happening around them.and how it sometimes seems to dance with the shadow all the different textures of the walls you encounter (trace your fingers over the bumpy ones, look for faces or familiar shapes).how it feels on your skin and how it tugs at tree branches! the direction, speed and temperature of the wind.the gradient of the sky when there’s little to no clouds.as if the world is twice as big and beautiful. reflections in bodies of water and windows and cars.things that stick out really obviously like a bright yellow car or an abnormally tall tree branch or a single light left on in an office building.the way people interact in public, what things they’re carrying, what they’re looking at (the sky, their food, each other).birdsong and how many different ones there are.water droplets racing on the windows of a moving vehicle.the expression of cars (you can tell by looking at the headlights!?).the golden outline people and animals get in the sunlight.(more, because you guys left the best ones in the tags:) ![]()
