Wednesday, September 4

Many months ago Irma won a free lunch at any branch of La Torre Fazione, and a few days ago she offered it to me.

Sensing another retki, I set off for the centre and find the branch near Lasipalatsi, in the space once occupied by M-Bar. I have roasted pumpkin curry & mujadara, which the menu tells me contains “citrus coconut glazed and roasted butternut squash, caramelized onion, rice lentil pilaf, roasted onion and vegan tzatziki”

Then I go to the Amos Rex gallery in Lasipalatsi where, using my Museokortti I spend an afternoon working me way through the current exhibitions. I take some photographs in the section headed The Cloud of Un/knowing, which features installations by Josefina Nelimarkka, all concerned with climate, and all powered by realtime data from weather stations near and far.
