  • Line of sight

    Number of comments: 0
    Some time has passed since the Bent considered Mountains, murmurations, and Mortimer to tell a story about European starlings. Right around the time we further mangled alliteration with Luke and Linnæus in an attempt to better describe clouds, or not.... [...]

    It was Buddy Catlett day in Seattle two weeks ago - February 21st, 2008. I was at City Hall to recognize Buddy, along with my friend Robert Wade, and to celebrate all he means to the city's jazz history and... [...]

    Number of comments: 1
    I'm always fascinated by the paths which lead musicians to my neighborhood jazz club. Born in Benin, West Africa, Gilles Lionel Loueke moved to Côte d'Ivoire to attend the National Institute of Art and study music for four years. He... [...]

  • Silas makes his point

    Number of comments: 2
    I'm still thinking about John Szarkowski, and his gifts to the world of photography. Especially his notion that photographers are pointers. They want to show you what they saw, asynchronously. First, capture the moment. Then, find the memory in the... [...]

  • Have a nice yesterday

    Number of comments: 2
    Looking out the window this afternoon brought the pleasant reminder that this upcoming weekend presents one of the Bent's favorite opportunities to go back in time. The unmistakable lines, the perfect pace, the gentle roll of the bow wake, and... [...]

  • A Saturday Double-Header

    Number of comments: 5
    Double-headers don't come around every weekend. And if you've going to see one, you pretty much know what you're in store for. But Saturday, about 2 miles north of trackside Safeco Field, and several hours before the Mariners hit the... [...]

  • Unfamiliar territory

    Number of comments: 2
    Just as Edward found himself checking out his strange, stylized and fantasized fifties suburban setting, so did a handful (well, four fingers worth) of newer world photobloggers, including the Bent's resident shooter. We all (Edward and the four of us)... [...]

  • Women of the world

    Number of comments: 1
    The world of music is an extraordinarily large place. It is populated by talented individuals who, as musicians, come from faraway places - like Ouidah, Benin, or Hamamatsu, Japan. They develop their musical voices in many more places, like Paris... [...]

    It's been over thirty years since an admiring audience watched Alexander Calder complete the painting of his abstract design on a Braniff jet at the 1975 Paris Air Show. But almost every week you can see a Boeing jet fuselage... [...]

  • The lady gets around

    Since the lovely yacht Laurel last graced the Bent's view of Elliott Bay, she has covered thousands of nautical miles visited glamorous ports of call. Wherever she went, it seems, folks wanted to know more about her. Thanks to those... [...]

  • Paternity TBD

    Number of comments: 10
    Monday morning brought with it the joyous arrival of three little eaglets, nestled comfortably in their cozy nest, under the watchful gaze of their Eagle foster mother or father (Calder never really made that clear) in Belltown's Olympic Sculpture Park.... [...]
