Austro-Athenian Empire
"Austro" as in Rothbard and Wittgenstein, "Athenian" as in Aristotle and smashing-the-plutocracy.

Anacaprice

Aug 13

By Roderick

Perhaps my favourite ride ever was the chairlift to the top of Capri in 1997. Serious nostalgia time: I find there are bunches of online video clips of the Capri chairlift. If you want to see the most beautiful place in the world, click here, here, here, here, and/or here.

The audio track is somewhat distracting on some of these; but you can always turn the sound off. When I went up it the real-life soundtrack was Arabic music playing from someone’s radio in one of the gardens we passed over.

I don’t know what the woman at the end of the first clip has to do with the chairlift or why she confuses blowing a kiss with gnawing her hand. Perhaps she was very hungry.

The Empirical Me

I’m Roderick T. Long, Professor of Philosophy at Auburn University. I’m an Aristotelean/Wittgensteinian in philosophy and a left-libertarian market anarchist in social theory. (More about me here.) This blog, Austro-Athenian Empire, is a continuation of my earlier blog, archived here.
