Roman Opałka was a French-born Polish painter who painted numbers. In 1965 he began painting a process of counting – from one to infinity. Starting in the top left-hand corner of the canvas and finishing in the bottom right-hand corner, the tiny numbers were painted in horizontal rows. As of July 2004, he had reached 5.5 million. 

This is amazing. I twice began such a sequence with my foot on the beach, but it did not get as far.

I'm Alec. I'm go to high school in Seattle, which is a great city. I apologize if some of the stuff on this blog is immature; I was a different person when I started posting here than I am now. I tried to clean up some of the more distasteful things.

Colophon(ish):Don't download music or any other copyrighted material off of this site! That is illegal and wrong! All of my original work on this site is licensed under Creative Commons License unless otherwise stated. Original theme by Peter Vidani.

Things I feel particularly loving for at this moment: my yellow Arrow t-shirt (Clare and the Reasons!), Pushing Daisies, FIREFLY, Community, Netflix on my phone, anticipation to go back to school, sleep, questioning whether "anticipation to go back to school" is grammatically correct, the new Voice number I just got, those times when my mind is thinking clear enough that I can actually write things in this list and not keep flipping away and feeling like I need to sleep, Luna Lovegood-(8.26.10)
theta, spring, fun ferry rides with friends, music, feeling carefree, throwing it all to the wind, future less vivid, sun, some traits of myself, insignificance, Luxana, birds, blue things, green things, white things-(3.7.10)
So I decided I'm just going to add to this list and not delete older stuff-knowledge, good things, friendly people, REGINA SPEKTOR!, words, mathematics, NPR, Luna Lovegood, the design of Wired, colours, science, more-(12.2.09)
Participles, Luna Lovegood, Mika's new album "The Boy Who Knew Too Much," Alec (me), snow, energy, my friends (aww that's sweet en't it?), Seattle, my iPhone (her name's Mollie), film!, whipped cream, love, books, my brain, laughter, other stuff
