Today in University of Glasgow, George Monbiot took a lecture hall full of people to a journey from 15th century Madeira, then to 1990's Porto Allegre, ending in today's world. It was an hopeful and inspirational talk. #georgemonbiot #glasgow

My film will be on Netflix as of 5th December. But only for Turkey. Why is Netflix doing this, I don't know. The film is better than many other Turkish output in Netflix UK.

Long before we knew that we'd move to Glasgow, this poster was on our wall in Istanbul. I always wanted to see Citizens Theatre but it was closed for a long time. Finally, last night we went to see a play for the first time. The play 'So Young' was great but I was in awe of the building itself.

The Mitchell Library in Glasgow is one of my favorite places to work. I find I write twice as much when I sit in this room. I don't go every day and surely there's no magic formula for work but generally speaking, it helps!

I stumbled upon this film on Amazon and started watching it just out of curiosity. Despite all the huge Hollywood names, I had never heard of it before. After about 15 minutes, I realised why and had to turn it off. If it wasn't a Dadaist attempt to break the system from within, it was a disaster.

Yesterday we had a good walk from West End to Bellahouston Park, through Partick-Govan Bridge and had lunch at House for An Art Lover. "Just a perfect day." 😊

"I was the shadow of the waxwing slain
By the false azure in the windowpane;
I was the smudge of ashen fluff--and I
Lived on, flew on, in the reflected sky.
And from the inside, too, I'd duplicate
Myself, my lamp, an apple on a plate"
Nabokov, from "Pale Fire"

İşte o, yaşandığı gibi sokaklarda
Cümle geçmişimi aziz bileceğim
Turnam bir gün bırakmayacağım seni
Yaşamak ve sevmek için art arda
Ömrüm oldukça peşinden geleceğim"

One Battle After Another is a great film. Do try catching it in theaters, worth watching on big screen. #onebattleafteranother #ptanderson
