Gatherr RSS

Pronounced "Gatherer", but, hey, it's web 2.0 and we leave the last
"e" out right? Gatherr collects the best of this and that from here and
there on the web for no other reason than sharing. It's about stuff
that seemed interesting at the time. Enjoy.




ABOUT

My
name is Tony Johansen. I am an artist. I like art and science and
poetry and books and history and technology and lots more besides.
Every day I am excited by the marvelous things I see in this wonderful
world and beyond. I love the Internet for giving me access to so much.
I am like a sponge for wondrous things or things that make me wonder. This site is really just a
scrapbook. Being on the web, however, means being able to share the
treasures I find. That's me, Tony Johansen, artist who likes to share
my excitement of being alive.

    It is easy to assume that the Nazi takeover of Austria was generally brutal but it was not - so long as you were not Jewish. As Hitlers troops crossed the border women ran into the street crying to welcome them. These tears in this photograph are real tears of joy that at last the dream of uniting the German speaking peoples was happening. Austria was militarily occupied without a shot being fired.
