materials used in art making in history:

squirrels

piss

bones of your enemies

cow gallbladder juice

egg

weed

red bug that really loved poland for some reason?

corrosion

mud

You don't need to buy the most expensive art materials out there to make amazing art. Your pencil is enough.

i know that this is like a regular diminutive of rodion but razumikhin referring to him as rodka instead of rodya after ranting about how being around raskolnikhov "made [him] drunk without ever having to go near the stuff" or like "drunk without vodka" is such a fun little rhyme

Rautavaara:

Propaganda: incredibly large sound for this concerto, octave cluster chords in the first movement with just. huge sweeping motions. took my breath away the first time i heard it!!

Prokofiev:

Propaganda: man goes ham must see. especially cool third movement. massive sound, and an incredible display of virtuosity.
