Why Mark Rothko's Abstract Paintings Matter Today
A brief reflection on why Mark Rothko's abstract paintings are relevant now. It describes how Rothko moved away from representational art in the late 1940s, focusing instead on light, color, and emotional impact through soft-edged rectangles on a field. The piece notes his specific installation preferences—low hanging, dim lighting—emphasizing that his work

This article explores the humorous physics question of how hard one would need to hit a chicken to cook it through impact energy. It references a classic calculation suggesting a slap at 3726 mph would reach cooking temperature, but notes this approach is flawed because cooking requires sustained heat rather than instantaneous temperature. The piece takes a
