RC bugs 2011/43
a bit late & short (I was travelling the last days) but here it is: the
recent update of my RC bug acitivities:
permalink

managing $HOME
I'm not the first one who thought about managing their dotfiles &
scripts in a (D)VCS in order to be able to have them in sync across
different machines, & I even haven't re-invented the wheel for doing so.
– short report on my experiences:
after
looking
around
a
bit
I decided to try movein
(info page with links to downloads & a README,
blog post,
git repo)
because it looked liked it would easily do what I'd like to do without
getting in my way too much; which means e.g.: no symlink farm, & only
one simple command to manage the whole setup.
movein is a simple shell script that allows to setup & manage
multiple modular repos tracking different sets of files quite easily, taking
advantage of the powers of git & mr. & being
written in shell means I also was able to make a few changes, which stew
kindly accepted & applied to his tree already.
in fact I'm just starting to use it for real, but it looks good so far,
& I think I'm going to stick with it for the time being.
2 minor observations:
permalink
- git in squeeze vs. wheezy/sid behave differently: the former happily & silently overwrites existing files, the latter dies loudly on each existing file. – not sure which behaviour I actually prefer.
- running mr up on a couple of repos from a machine without an ssh key on the target machine is kind of boring ...

long night of museums 2011
"lange nacht der museen" – a
warm late-summer evening, & it's amazing how many galleries, exhibition
rooms, etc. innsbruck has.
a quick list of my tour (all places in the city center, & just a few
minutes away from each other by bike). as usual, the quality was mixed.
permalink
- kunstpavillon der tiroler künstlerschaft: no exhibition, & the projector for the movie wasn't ready yet
- neue galerie der tiroler künstlerschaft: weird something (the confusing way)
- fo.ku.s foto kunst stadtforum: a few boring photos
- galerie 22a: great paintings from carmen m selma
- galerie im taxispalais – galerie des landes tirol: some nice drawings, & a funny video
- kunstraum innsbruck: weird installation & video (but somewhat funny)
- gösser's: delicious zwickl (wait – that's not art in the strict sense, & not included in the "long night" ticket)
- fotoforum west: a projected photo blog
- galerie nothburga: some nice mini-sculptures, & some paintings, not my style
- artdepot – kommunikationszentrum für kunst und kultur: a few abstract (?) paintings, not my style
- galerie kass: a few paintings, not my style
- <some garden across the street from the last gallery>: music & fashion, if I understood it correctly
- aut. architektur und tirol: installations, in the wider sense; with an interesting tour
created by Chronicle v4.6
