Moods of Basilica di San Francesco in Assisi, Italy

Assisi, Italy, originally uploaded by R.o.b.e.r.t.o..

This is a trippy shot I saw today on Flickr. It not only reflects my mood these days — frustrated from working too much and dreaming of being with my family. It also through me back to my wedding day.

My wife and I got married inside the Basilica of San Francesco not long after all of the scafolding was removed following the 1997 Assisi earthquake.  See photos of Assisi from that time, including this shot of falling frescos and a homage to Assisi after the earthquake.  Here are some of the Fescoes.

We stood next to the brown, ragged robe of San Francesco. What a magical living shrine to love and humanity. Unlike this photo, it was a super sunny, hot day…but cool and refreshing inside beneath the frescoed chiesa.

This photo is pure and moody as the sun goes down and the lights beam on the basilica. Reminds me of the many times we walked down that path. With every step the chiesa grows bigger and more awesome.

    I’ve been thinking of possible sites for my wedding and I fell in love with Assisi the first time I went there and would love to get married there. I have not been able to find information about holding a wedding there, so could you tell me anything about it. Such as, when is it available throughout the day and the average cost? Thank you.

  • The original 'rock stars' who defined innovation and integration October 20, 2009
    Today, a small team of engineers will be recognized at the Computer History Museum for designing the world’s first programmable microprocessor in 1971, a 4-bit parallel CPU with 2,300 transistors. That project, from a fledgling integrated memory manufacturer barely 3 years old, was a significant achievement that one can honestly say changed the world. […]

  • Documentary on Intel Xeon processor 'Nehalem Effect' is nonsense October 19, 2009
    I rarely write about topics with such vigour, but this latest video from a so-called documentary team is absolute and utter rubbish. There is no evidence whatsoever that the Intel Xeon 5500 processor can create the kind of data centre disruption witnessed in the documentary. In the spirit of openness, here is the video I am referring to: Here is the text tha […]

Everyone that knows me, knows that and yet even those of us in marketing get asked the inevitable question from our friends, family or neighbors — “what PC should I buy?” I always t […]
