Everything has to die. That’s the truth. One likes to think that there is always hope. That you can live above death. And its a uniquely human fantasy that things will get better, born perhaps of the uniquely human understanding that things will not. There’s no way to know for certain. But I suspect humans are the only animal that know the inevitability of their own deaths. Other animals live in the present. Humans cannot, so they invented hope.

“¿Te has preguntado, porque hay tanta belleza en las alas de una mariposa?”

El universo, no solo tiene una historia, sino que tiene todas las historias posibles.

Eduardo abimizin baş karakter olduğu ve paralel evrenlerde seyahat ederek başına gelenleri değiştirmeyi sevdiklerini mutlu etmeyi kendi acısını dindirmeye çalıştığı bir dizi. İspanyol/Katalan yapımı olduğu için duygu ağırlıklı. Mesela adam evrenler arasında seyahat ediyor ben burda hüngür hüngür ağlıyorum. Bilim kurgu hiç bu kadar ağır drama olmamıştı. Elisa karakteri ne kadar güzel olsa da hiç bi evrende hoşlaşmadım. Sadece en sevdiğim evren en sonuncusu oldu çünkü her akademisyenin hayal ettiği bi hayat yaşadılar. O kadar olmasa bile öyle bi hayat kurmayı becerebilmeyi isterdim. Aslında dizi şunu çok net gösteriyor, keşke kelimesinin ne kadar saçma olduğunu. Başka bi karar verdiğinde verdiğin karardan farklı bi sonuç oluşacağının kanıtı yok. Belki aynı sonuç değil ama belki daha kötüsü. O yüzden yaşadığımız tecrübelerden, verdiğimiz kararlardan pişmanlık duymamalıyız. Çünkü bunların alternatifleri de en az bu karar kadar kötü sonuç getirebilir. Kuantum fiziğiyle de açıklanmaya çalışan kader kavramına geliyor konu. Acaba verdiğimiz her karar önceden belirli sonsuz paralel evrenler mi oluşturuyor ?

Back from my birthday hiatus, and um, wow... was not expecting this kind of overwhelmingly positive reaction to a simple QRT about how we used Dissolve Mode in our BG paintings on Carol and the End of the World (see last image) - since people seemed to have enjoyed that so much, I thought I'd put all the pages of the Carol and the End of the World BG Paint style guide I drafted in one post! TBH I'd been meaning to do this for awhile but kept forgetting since I have it in a different folder than the BG paintings themselves... I believe all the paintings are mine and all the designs are by Alex Myung unless otherwise noted. I wrote this pretty early on pre-vis, so some of these guidelines got a little massaged during production, but the broad strokes are definitely still there! This wasn't the only style guide on the show BTW! A couple of our other leads Alex Myung and Kal Athannassov also put together a BG and Character Design style guide that are super cool - unfortunately I don't have the files myself (nor would I feel comfortable posting work that's not mine) nor do I think they've posted them yet, so if you two were looking for a sign to do so, this is it!! Now you have everything you need to paint like a Caroler - thanks for looking!! Showrunner: @dan-guterman Art direction: @ellemichalka

How long did it take them to figure out that it could actually be done? That's staggering.

[Video is titled, "four cellists play Ravel's Bolero." It's on Classic fM. They all play on the same cello, with the drum part is played by plucking strings. Two of them do small comedy fights in the background between their parts, trying to take the other's place beside the cello. It's a pretty tight fit, and at some points there are four bows almost touching as they all saw the strings.

Text on the screen reads,

four cellists play Ravel's Bolero ... on just one cello. Bolero has long been a test of endurance for snare drummers, but here, every part is played by a cellist. With only one instrument in sight, Wiener Cello Ensemble 5 + 1 leap to the task, involving a fair amount of acrobatics! Watch it all unfold ...

an effective way i've found of processing anger provoked by petty annoyances and minor inconveniences is asking myself "would i be embarrassed to linger on as a revenant specter because i couldn't move past this" and if the answer is yes i get over it pretty quickly
