Just finished this audiobook: Astrophysics for People in a hurry. It feels hard and easy at the same time - vocabulary on astrology is tricky to me as a non-native speaker, especially when listening to an audiobook version. On the other hand, I spent so much time when I was a teenager on sci-fi, so I have a good context of most of the things discussed in this book.

At first, I was frustrated as I didn't get many from the book as I used to from other non-fictional books. I even wanted to go back from the beginning to reread it. But then I realised it was just a default expectation: I should always get something useful from the book but not enjoy the reading. When I gave up the expectation, it became an enjoyable experience.

Reading non-fiction could be entertainment.

杰西卡·伊顿《瓶上时光》
Jessica Eaton Time On A Bottle

杰西卡·伊顿 (Jessica Eaton) 在她的新静物摄影创作指向大量不同的空葡萄酒和酒瓶。在疫情期间，她似乎经常光顾当地的酒类商店。但间接来说，这些疫情式的饮酒似乎为伊顿提供了一条走出黑暗的艺术之路。伊顿在加拿大蒙特利尔生活和工作，那里的封锁特别严重且持续时间长，因此几个月来，她无法获得工作室助理的帮助，并且在相当长的一段时间内，根本无法在工作室工作。这迫使伊顿进入一种新的艺术即兴创作模式，她不得不独自工作，堆积如山的可用酒瓶似乎提供了一系列方便的潜在题材。

伊顿使用各种激光笔、光纤和其他发光设备，从不同的方向和角度，通过不同的扩散器和中断器，将彩色光投射到瓶子上，她自己操控这一切的同时仍然找到一种方法来确保合适的时机按下快门。

目前这组作品在纽约的Higher Pictures Generation画廊展出，展期至6月25日
