I was lucky to see him in Barcelona in 2019. He played Wednesday in Barcelona, Thursday in Madrid and Friday at the basque country. With 82 years. A legend.

I attended the exhibition last Friday. It's impressive. A lot of original objects from Kubrick and it's films. Truly great.

I took the guided tour, which is free. (Note that the guide is in Catalan; the exhibition is in Catalan, Spanish and English.) It was really great. The guide had read many of the books and made many interesting comments. For example explained what other actors said about Kubrick. It was like 1 hour and a half. There is also a audio guide (they provide you with a card and a headphones).

I'll have to visit the exhibition again to see it in detail. A friend said he had already seen it twice. Note that with ticket of 1 day you can visit it twice, which is nice.

Also note that the exhibition in Barcelona has content of another exhibition about 2001 Space Odyssey. So it's a '2 in 1'.

There's a lot of people there tough :/

Last week I found an interesting JS book on Amazon: Simplifying JavaScript: Writing Modern JavaScript with ES5, ES6, and Beyond

You can take a look at the book How To Design Programs (HTDP) [1]. It's similar. The 2nd edition printed book is going to be released soon [2]. There is a paper from the authors of HTDP comparing it to SICP [3]. By the way, there is an couple of online courses at EDX that covers content of HTDP [4][5].
