Ingó passed away yesterday. His generosity has had a profound impact on me. Every time we met, he pitched collaboration; we just hadn’t yet found the moment, the angle. His photo-journalism, especially this photo of bird death during Grímsvötn’s 2011 eruption, has had a profound impact on me. Now I will hold the fertile birch you carved for me, Ingó, and dream again of our collaboration. Fuck death, y’know? Heart. Respect, Ingó.

SCORE: Tjörnes fracture zone, earthquake swarm 21 October 2012. 350+ quakes in 24 hours. Largest 5.8 in Richter scale.
Vísir reports that Kleifarvatn has a disproportionately large number of dead fish in its depths spotted by divers. Kleifarvatn is in the Krysuvík volcanic region, which was impacted by the large earthquake in 2001 and which has undergone notable inflation and deflation over the past couple of years. The lake itself has been the site of varied hydrothermal activity, which may be attributing to the quantity of dead fish. No studies have yet been conducted.
