"You can't depend on your eyes if your imagination is
out of focus."
~ Mark Twain
Welcome to my personal website
After my retirement I have found the time and leisure to
concentrate on things that are at my heart. You will find here a
medley of matters that are worth looking at. Due to my limited
programming skills, it's a rather old-fashioned, no-frills website.
Enjoy reading.
This renowned woodcutting by an unknown master from around 1530 (which
possibly was
created only in the 19th century) illustrates
nicely what I have in mind, namely man's courageously overcoming mental
prisons. Just as the person in the picture curiously explores what is
behind the veil at the beginning of modern times so we all can free
ourselves today from the bans and restrictions we were brought up with.
This whole situation is beautifully illustrated as a parable in the
movie
The
Truman Show by Peter Weir from 1998.
