David Gilmour 🎵 Sonnet 18


 

Guitarist and singer David Gilmour of Pink Floyd recorded a musical interpretation of William Shakespeare’s “Sonnet 18” at his home studio aboard the historic, 90-foot houseboat the Astoria. This video of Gilmour singing the sonnet was released as an extra on the 2002 DVD David Gilmour in Concert, but the song itself is connected with When Love Speaks, a 2002 benefit album for London’s Royal Academy for the Dramatic Arts.


 

 «Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? 
Thou art more lovely and more temperate. 
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May, 
And summer's lease hath all too short a date. 

Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines, 
And often is his gold complexion dimmed, 
And every fair from fair sometime declines, 
By chance or nature's changing course untrimmed; 

But thy eternal summer shall not fade, 
Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest; 
Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade, 
When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st: 

So long as men can breathe or eyes can see, 
So long lives this and this gives life to thee.» 



«Dovrei paragonarti a un giorno d'estate? 
Tu sei più amabile e mite. 
Impetuosi venti sferzano le tenere gemme di Maggio, 
E il tempo dell'estate ha troppo presto una fine. 

Troppo cocente splende a volte l'occhio del cielo, 
E spesso la sua carnagione dorata scurisce; 
E ogni cosa bella si allontana dalla bellezza, 
Guastata dal caso o dal mutevole corso della natura.
 
Ma la tua estate eterna non verrà mai meno, 
Né sarà privata della bellezza che possiedi, 
Né la morte si vanterà che tu cammini nella sua ombra, 
Se vivrai nel tempo futuro grazie a dei versi eterni: 

Finché uomo respiri od occhio veda, 
Queste parole vivranno e ti daranno vita.»
(trad. personale)

Kunio Katō 🎬 La Maison en Petits Cubes


 

La Maison en Petits Cubes (つみきのいえ, Tsumiki no Ie, "The House of Small Cubes") is a 2008 Japanese animated short subject film created by Kunio Katō. It won several prizes, including the Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film in 2009. It has a visual palette that's much different and more rustic than many other cartoon shorts. It follows an older man who lives alone and is forced to keep adding levels to his home to stay dry as the rest of the town slowly floods with water. One day, after accidentally dropping his pipe into the water, he dives down after it, going through the other rooms in search of it and making him relive some of his life as memories begin to resurface. These memories include many eventful times in his life, as well as times from before the flood.
