And those who know me, know that I'm a bit of Byrd for some things, but maybe the thing I most of Byrd for is something quite childish, perhaps, in the minds of some. I'm one of those people who have grown up on comics and who have failed to go drop of magic in passing my teenage years and into adulthood. That to me is the comic Tintin.
I have some justification for my obsession, I had bad eczema when I was a small child and in order to stop me scratching myself raw, my father was reading Tintin justice league doom books to me before justice league doom going to sleep. One English (The Shooting Star), roughly the same amount of French (Coke en Stock), justice league doom and all Welsh and White Town Press published at the turn of the '70s / '80s, and translated by Roger Boore (also famous for conceived Alun Boore, Regards Ralgex singer of the band, and Rhys Boore, singer of the punk band U-Thant, was also responsible for devising Ayatollah Cardiff City). I got stuck in an international world, exciting the budding journalist is 3 years old and still images to be addressed now. But now, when reading some books about the fiftieth time, probably, I still see layer after layer in them in making connections justice league doom and my knowledge of cinema, the political history of the world, and the appreciation of ' The designs which convey cinematic movement is better than a lot of other artists.
I dwîtiodd Leusa Florida some weeks back saying justice league doom that she had learned that such thing as "Tintinologist". Well, I'd pretend that I'm one if I have not read the incredible work of people like Michael Farr and Pierre Assouline which analyzes each book, and individual frames, skilfully giving social context, political , historical, gwyddoniaethol, artistic and personal (background Hergé himself). That is Tintinoleg - drawing understanding of all kinds of disciplines out of a series of comic strips did run over fifty years can be considered justice league doom among the most devastating in the last millennium (1930-1983).
But never mind about the justification, last week filming I got to fulfill the wish that had been incubated for some time - visiting the Museum of Tintin in Belgium (well, Hergé Museum, and that is absolutely right, and we get closer to that front).
I was in Brussels and have the opportunity to protect children (1 and 4 years old) while E. work there. It was therefore necessary to go for a scout to see the Museum. It is located in Louvain-la-Neuve, which is about an hour by train directly from the center of Brussels. It was easy to find (5 minutes from the station) and we had a nice picnic in the park on the road, which is full of University students chat and eat sandwiches. The Louvain-la-Neuve is a new town where the University is taking over, not unlike the social justice league doom situation Aberystwyth.
The building itself, by architect Christian de Pontzamparc, are brand new and strikingly modern justice league doom and angular justice league doom as m and fashion. It reminded me a bit of the Cinémathèque Française building by Frank Gehry, or perhaps inside the Millennium Centre. As I walked into a huge space to the roof with walls full of pictures of abstract, clouds, ocean waves or rocks perhaps, that style is immediately recognizable as' Ligne claire 'Georges Remi, Hergé or to everyone in the world (there' The name Hergé play on his real name initials GR has been turned justice league doom back for RG).
There was also a Tibetan water which signifies the special exhibition of Tibetan culture is based on the book Tintin and the terrible snow-Man (Tintin au Tibet). As this is my second favorite book (The Crab and the Golden Claws is No.1), it bodes well. According to the architect of the building was supposed to resemble a ship Fitzcarraldo, cuts through the Amazon jungle. I can not see the sense of adventure inside justice league doom too with many 'gangplank' high contact areas display that gives a playful feeling to the building.
The display for the Tibetans on the ground floor. He Ll. and P. sit and watch the cartoon book Tintin au Tibet and I had a taste of the culture and history of the country heartbreaking, as they try to resist trefedigaethu'r Tsieniaid and hold on to their culture and language. There was no avoiding the political interpretation, giving the cause of the Tibetans justice league doom is clear enough. Well done so, head to the main exhibition.
The first thing that struck me was the formality by the staff - no cameras, no rucksack, and P. supposed to stay in the Mail Coach. I thought I had come into the museum cartoonist, not mausoleum. Hoping that no over-respectability later on, here's a start. When going in was about a hundred small circular screens in a dark corridor change every now and then showed some character and frame or face was Ll. and i bit of fun
