My Intent for this Blog

As a University/College Lecturer, who has previously taught in Secondary schools, I ride an emotional roller-coaster on a daily basis. I have decided to post photos or videos here, anything which moves me in some way. In my opinion; music, film, books... they should all evoke emotion of some sort, otherwise they are transient and pointless.

Interstellar


I went to see Interstellar at the cinema yesterday. What a great film, the best Sci-fi I've seen since Sunshine probably. Besides the amazing cinematography, it deals with some of the forefront issues facing humanity right now and our continued existence. More than that, it's actually very sad. In that respect I share my concern as I often despair for humanity. As a species we have come a long way, but look at what we're doing to ourselves, to each other, and to our planet. We need to change. What will it take to make us do that? The threat of extinction?
