Another piece of street art in Asbury Park, NJ by Shepard Fairey. This is stenciled onto the bricks of this building next to the convention center. I had a look with Google street view and noted that this stenciled image was still here at the time the Google camera car went by.
Respect thy Father, Mother & Country was my first program. After all, isn't it their empathy that tells me to put on my toque and mittens...Eh? lol ♥
Another neat piece of treasure left behind for me to play with! This behemoth has always reminded me of some sort of old, iron phonograph, blasting its song of the mining days out into the Hills.

You couldn't write it. Well, you can, but some people will always ignore it because, obv, it does not apply to them (even though it applies precisely to them). Surprisingly she did not get pinged £3 to aid and abet her criminal enterprise but more for lacking any sense of irony and any consideration for those living nearby (and, if it makes a difference, the nearest residents are all council tenants).
London. This is the back face of the buildings seen in the image:

The way the orange facing reflected, and amplified, the brick colour of the older building opposite was what caught my eye.
Cova de Sa Tuna
Baix Empordà, Northern Spain
Press the 'Go' and then type 'L' to enlarge. It loops. 'Escape' to return.
To hear the subsonics and reverbs the video needs to to be viewed on a computer linked to a sound system and there is no effect on a portable phone or tablet.
A test for acoustic properties. On the third pass you can just hear a 'sweet spot' of reverb that has astonishingly deep subsonics. Whilst the sound on the camera is poor and equalised, and the Flickr processing compressed, you can still just hear both the reverb and sweet spot by listening to the end of the test sounds and 'underneath' the sounds. When in this man-made late bronze age cavity, the accelerated effect of the sweet spot is astonishing and like being inside a musical instrument. The space itself is like a large pot with the sweet spot on the upper left as you look in from outside.
The sound in the clip is an alternative to clapping and is not meant to illustrate a potential.
With the nearby Cova dels Clots de Sant Julià seeming to have had a past with acoustic properties, it seems worthwhile testing other man made prehistoric cavities of the local area. A reverb for a tone will also reverb for a song or a musical instrument. The reverb of this space feeds back on itself and the term amplification must apply. Prehistoric monolithic amplification.
This site is currently proposed as a sepulture. Whilst individuals may have asked to be buried here at the end of its period of meaning, the origins of the cavity may have been for applied musical effect over large distances.
A choir of 10 singing from inside
A drum skin attached outside and wedged against an interior roped beam.
Early oboes turning rondes.
Interior percussive cascades.
Lone melodious voice...
Unlike the Sant Julià site, which sits clean above an established quarry, the Sa Tuna site looks at first site to be on a typical hunters outcrop of rock, uphill from a fine menhir. Aside the idea of a sepulture, one might expect an explanation as a food store or shelter of one form or another. Providing the arguments as to how an 'acoustic cavity' may have been created on this spot requires a step back...

I figured it was time to post something from my catalog of flowers and seeing how orange is my favourite colour i thought this would be a fair choice . Cheers

One weekend I came across hundreds of teenagers entering the subway dressed up as various anime characters. I decided to get of at the same stop, and discovered it was a kind of convention. I am personally not so interested in the field(though I enjoy many of Miyazaki's movies together with my daughter), but it was a great opportunity for portraits.
