Next we went to collect the painting Flying
objects in the red zone (2022) from Ad Werkhoven which we bought from him. We saw it on March 16 when visiting CODA Museum. (It was a bit bigger than I had
remembered.)

I found this quite an interesting exhibition. I also played on of the VR

Attempting to build MySample on Ubuntu
I wondered if it would be possible to compile my
MySample editor on Linux (Ubuntu 22.04). After some searching, I found
winemaker. I downloaded it
from somewhere and performed the following commands:
ls *.h *.cpp *.rc | awk '{print "dos2unix " $0}' >cvall
chmod +x cvall
./cvall
cd res
dos2unix Sample.rc2
cd ..
winemaker --mfc .
make
This resulted in an error about wineg++ not being available. Installed
last version of wine using the following commands (specific for Ubuntu 22.04):
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo wget -O /etc/apt/keyrings/winehq-archive.key https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/winehq.key
sudo wget -NP /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/dists/jammy/winehq-jammy.sources
sudo apt update
sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-stable
When I issued make again, I got the error message that the include
file afxwin.h could not be found. When I looked in the make file, I
found that environment variable MFC_INCLUDE_PATH is used. It has not
been set in my environment. One way, seems to be to compile MFC from source,
as is described in Dealing with MFC section of Winelib User's Guide. Seems not a very easy
road with some legal hurdles.
-3.7° Celsius
During the night, the temperature at Twenthe
Airport dropped to -3.7° Celsius, which breaks does not break the record
low temperature of -4.8° Celsius for this day of the year. However, it
dit affect our magnolia. Many of the leaves of the
flowers on the top of the tree turned brown. Luckily, not all flowers are
affected.
Full of flowers
Our magnolia is now full of flowers. In the night of
Wednesday, the temperature dropped to -3.3° Celsius. Again not a record. It
looked like it did not turn more flowers brown.
Replacing fuser unit of Samsung CLP-365
This afternoon, the Samsung Fuser Kit JC91-01080A, which I had ordered last
week, was delivered. I followed the instruction in the video How-to Replace the Fuser Unit • Samsung CLP-360, CLP-365W, C410W,
C430W, HP 150a, HP 150nw to replace the fuser unit of our Samsung CLP-365 colour laser printer. The printer had broken down on
March 15, when we found paper rolled around the fuser unit. After the repair, I
printed two test sheets.
Verifying live-bootstrap
In the past week, I have been working on the kaem_parser.cpp program in order to
verify live-bootstrap. The program can parse the kaem command files that are used by live-bootstrap. The program I wrote,
can parse these files and keep track of all the generated files to generate
an HTML file with the list of all seed file and input source files, a list of
all the steps with information about which files they used and/or produce, and
a list of all output files (which is still a bit cluttered). I am still working
on generating links to all the original source files. I am not claiming that
the program is exaustive, because, for example, I still need to write a
function to scan C source files for included header files.
Şirin Bahar Demirel
In the evening, I went to an exhibition with
works by visual artist and Şirin
Bahar Demirel. The invitation text says:
Visual artist and filmmaker Şirin Bahar Demirel presents her current
research in terms of both form and concept. She has been focusing on
matriarchal memory transmission through photos, domestic objects, and
patterns, to re-imagine women's stories that have historically been
silenced and lost under patriarchal oppression, both in public and private
spheres.
The visitors will see the experiments in different mediums and materials
exploring this theme, such as image transfer on ceramic, mixed media
collage, experimental animation, video art, and photography
In the exhibition you could view a short fragment of a work in progress (if I
understood it correctly) called Between delicate and violence. Her
mixed media collage works are intriguing.
I talked with several people, most of them working at the University of
Twente.
Books and maps
I went into the city and first went to see the
exhibtion Graduates 2023 at Fotogalerie Objektief where there were
photographs on display by:
Next, I went to bookshop Broekhuis where I
looked around for a long time. I also went to the top floor where they are
still in the process of reorganising. Near the stairs they had place some
bookshelves with books from the writers from the Canon of Dutch Literature.
At 15:06:35, I bought the following books and maps:
- Stationen Der Moderne edited by Michael Bollé and
Eva Züchner, written in German, and published by Verlag der
Buchhandlung Walther Konig in 1988,
ISBN:9783883750828, for € 25.00.

in English and published by Random Hourse in 2007,

Personal Journey into the Dark Side of the Brain written by James H. Fallon in English and published by Penguin in 2013,
ISBN:9781101603925, for € 14.95.
- № 418, BROEKHEURNE, Scale 1:25,000, published by Topografische
Dienst in 1929, for € 5.00.

Dienst in 1965, for € 5.00.
- № 34 F, ENSCHEDE, Scale 1:25,000, published by Topografische
Dienst in 1955, for € 5.00.
Next, I went to thrift store Het Goed where at
15:41, I bought the book AR[t]CEVIA: International Art Festival 2009
written by Achab, Davide De Angelis, and Laura Coppa in Italian, and published
in 2009 for € 3.00.
On the way home, I made a small detour to see the progress of the extesion of
the Fietsnelweg (biking highway) F35 in Enschede. Video about the project.
Working in the garden
In the afternoon, Conny and I were busy in the garden. I first spaded a small area in the backyard and mixed some
compost through it. Conny collected some of the dandelions with the idea of
maybe cooking something with them. We then planted an echinacea purpurea bulb in it and also seeds of fifteen different
butterfly-friendly annual and biennial flowers. I also spade an area in the
front garden and sow the flower seed there as well. Then I spend some time on
the 'willow' tree in the back of garden (which is not a willow tree). In 2021,
I already made an attempt to cut it down, but I left two large branches,
which made it look like a two stage tree as can be seen in this picture. I managed to cut one of the branches completely and strip
the other, which I am going to cut down later. Finally, I planted the little magnolia plant, which was just sprouting again, with the root ball
from the pot in the garden. It is already nine years old as it was on
March 25, 2014 that it first appeared. In the
past years, it would often sprout in the spring and then dry up again in the
summer because I forgot to water the pot. Hopefully, its roots will grow deeper
in the soil of our garden, which I suspect does also not dry up as much as the
soil in the pot.
(Correction, April 22: It seems that what I thought was a 'little
magnolia plant', is actually a chestnut plant,
probably the one that I refered to on September
22, 2019.)
Sofonisba Anguissola
Conny and I went to the Rijksmuseum Twenthe. First we watched the
exhibition Armando Gestalt with bronze sculputers and paintings by
the Dutch artist Armando (website). We both
were not very impressed with this exhibition. I liked the paitings a bit more
than the sculptures. The paintings that we saw are: Das Tier, 2005,
Schuldige Landschaft, 1987, Gestalt, 2010, Gestalt, 2013,
Gestalt, 2013, Gefechtsfeld, 1987, Fahne, 1985,
Fahne, 1985, Melancholie, 1988. and Melancholie, 2008.
In the large square room the exhibition Sofonisba Anguissola was on
display with works by Sofonisba Anguissola. We walked in kind of random order, mostly reversed,
through the exhibition. The works I saw (including some objects) are:
- Maria Lactans, 1588.
- Holy Family with Saints Anne and John the Baptist, 1592.
- The Mystic Marriage of Saint Catherine, 1588.
- Holy Family with Saints John the Baptist and Francis of Assisi, 1559.
- Portrait of Infanta Isabella Clara Eugenia, c.1573.
- Portrait of Infanta Catalina Micaela with a Marmoset, c.1573.

- The book Il libro del cortegiano by Baldassare Castiglione.
On Hacker News I read an item about the paper Grambank reveals the importance of genealogical constraints on linguistic
diversity and highlights the impact of language loss, which is based on
data from Grambank. Grambank contains
data about 195 grammatical
features of more than 2400
languages and dialects. The raw data can be found in the git repository grambank/grambank at GitHub. I was a little surprised that of the 195
still eight features for Dutch, my mother tongue, are unknown. I suspect that these features are
not addressed in the books that the researchs used to fill in the features, but
that they could be answered by experts on the Dutch grammar. The unknown
features are:
Bright, double rainbow
At eight in the evening, I noticed that it started to rain outside and that the
sun was shining. Reason to check if there was a rainbow. There was one, a
bright, double rainbow, that remained visible for the next twenty minutes. It
also kept raining lightly. We also heard some thunder in the far distance.
Below, one of the pictures I
took. It also shows our magnolia with still a few
flowers.
More Dune reaction videos
Below a list of Dune 2021 reaction videos that
I have watched in the past month. Not all of them are of good quality.
Dragging and zooming
Some experiment with mouse dragging and scroll wheel zooming.
In the past week, I continues working on analyse the fosslinux/live-bootstrap repository resulting in a new version of
kaem_parser.cpp program. The program includes a partial implementation of the C preprocessor based on iterators which implement the various phases of
the preprocessor. The output of the program is the page live-bootstrap. (Note that this page will be updated when the program is
further developed.)
Book fair Glanerbrug
At the end of the afternoon, I went to the book fair in Glanerbrug. I spend a
bit more than an hour going through the eight bookshelves with books about art.
I decided not to be very picky as the books are really cheap. I noticed that
there were many books from the library of De Museum Fabriek and Rijksmuseum Twenthe. I found several books about the works of Peter Struycken. At (about) 18:00, I bought the following books:
- Initiatief 1986 written by Bart Cassiman, Jean-Hubert Martin, Kasper König, Jan Hoet, and Gosse Oosterhof, edited by Bart Cassiman, written in

I decided to have a look at the book 260604: Examenwerk 2004, which is
ahout the students of KBAK that graduated in 2004. The students are presented per department.
Each department has its own chapter in the book that starts with an interview
of a student that graduated in an earlier year. Each student was given one page
in the book and seems to be given complete freedom in how to fill it except for
their name and a page number. I found the following students and/or their page
interesting:
- Raymond Derikauf with the installation LICHT. (See rAys v2.0 for a second installment from 2008.)
- Margriet van Eekelen with
Krankenhaus. 'Building for my graduation a pneumatic installation in my
living-room and moved my bed to the balcony.'

Hebrew font geared towards people with dyslexia.
Book fair Glanerbrug
This morning, I went again to the book fair in Glanerbrug. I spend almost two
hours there. I again went through the eight bookshelves with books about art,
focusing on those books that came from the library of De Museum Fabriek and Rijksmuseum Twenthe. I found several books about the works of Peter Struycken. At (about) 11:53, I bought the following books:
