Guide to Kissing from Life Magazine, May 18, 1942.

Actors kissing on-stage look too juvenile if they are so stand-offish.

Boy and girl should stand close together and not hold each other too tightly.

Sprawling all over the chair is considered ungraceful, bad technique.

Girl should sit on arm of the chair and boy should hold her firmly but lightly.

Ama divers subject matter - repeatedly -

The refreshing Ama (海女, "sea women")

The long whistle sound that Ama divers make upon resurfacing from a dive, as part of their breathing technique, became a defining characteristic of their practice. This whistling, known as isobue, is a unique technique that helps protect their lungs and prevents excessive hyperventilation.

Bamboo Theatre, Shima Park at Xiaobantian, Nantou, Taiwan

Mr Cheng Tsung FENG’s artistic practice has long been intertwined with endangered traditions, vanishing techniques, and fading cultural memories. Among them, the traditional bamboo theatre — once a vital part of temple festivals and folk celebrations across Taiwan — holds a special resonance.

Built entirely with bamboo scaffolding, these temporary performance stages embodied the ingenuity of communities, combining practicality with ritual and festivity.

Today, however, such theaters have nearly disappeared, replaced by modern equipment and standardized structures.

There aren’t any tutorials showing how to do a twisted rib in the double knitting technique, so I thought I’d show it off.

It’s a little bit tricky because of the weird colour control, but as long as you follow the pattern & remember to split the yarn colours on the second set of stitches you can easily fall into a nice rhythm.
