Ο Λαύκος στο Πήλιο, είναι ένα χωριό που δεν συγκαταλέγεται σ’αυτό που θα λέγαμε «κράχτες»,με ιδιαίτερη τουριστική φήμη δηλαδή.
Δεν είναι παραλιακό(το επίνειό του είναι η πολύ γνωστή Μηλίνα),δεν είναι το κλασσικό ορεινό ούτε διαθέτει την οικιστική συνοχή των ξακουστών παραδοσιακών οικισμών του Πηλίου.
Τι είναι,επομένως,το στοιχείο που ασκεί τόση γοητεία στον επισκέπτη του;
Κατά την άποψή μου πρόκειται για την αγάπη των κατοίκων του προς τον τόπο τους η οποία διαχέεται σε κάθε του γωνιά:Σπίτια φροντισμένα(αρχοντικά,λαϊκά,με νεοκλασσικές επιρροές)όχι για τουριστική εκμετάλλευση(υπάρχουν και τέτοια) αλλά κυρίως χτισμένα με και από το προσωπικό μεράκι των πιστών κατοίκων της που δεν τα ερήμωσε η κρίση και η ευκαιριακή χρήση.
Όλα διαφορετικά μεταξύ τους με μόνο συνεκτικό στοιχείο την προσωπική σφραγίδα του μόνιμου ιδιοκτήτη τους.
Γι αυτό και το χωριό σφύζει από ζωή.Οι κάτοικοί του έχουν επίγνωση,σέβονται,εκτιμούν και συνεχίζουν την πλούσια πολιτιστική κληρονομιά τους όχι για το τουριστικό «θεαθήναι» αλλά διότι έτσι έμαθαν να ζούν.
Αποτελεί το ιδανικό μέρος για χαλαρή βολτούλα και περιήγηση στα λιθόστρωτα καλντερίμια του απ’άκρου εις άκρον.
Φρέσκο αεράκι( στο μεγαλύτερο μέρος δεν χωρούν αυτοκίνητα),αξιοθαύμαστη αρχιτεκτονική,ανθισμένες αυλές,πράσινο παντού και ζωντανή πολιτιστική παράδοση σε κερδίζουν δημιουργώντας την ανάγκη της εκεί επιστροφής.
Το χωριό κτίστηκε μεταξύ 15ου και 16ου αιώνα, από τον καπετάνιο Στέργιο Μπασδέκη. Γνώρισε στιγμές μεγάλης οικονομικής άνθησης στα χρόνια της Τουρκοκρατίας ενώ μεγάλη είναι και η παράδοσή του στις τέχνες και τα γράμματα.
Ιδιαίτερη μνεία πρέπει να γίνει για:
-Το Φάμπειο Μουσείο Λειτουργεί στο παλιό κτήριο του σχολείου.Στο προαύλιο θα θαυμάσετε εξαίρετα γλυπτά από λευκό πηλιορείτικο μάρμαρο του ντόπιου ζωγράφου και γλύπτη Θανάση Φάμπα ,στο εσωτερικό του πίνακες του ιδίου ενώ στο ισόγειο στεγάζεται το λαογραφικό μουσείο του συλλόγου «Δράση».
-Το καφενείο-αξιοθέατο του Εμμανουήλ Φορλίδα.Πρόκειται για το αρχαιότερο καφενείο της Ελλάδος το οποίο λειτουργεί αδιαλείπτως από το 1785!!! Την εποχή που ο επάνω όροφος λειτουργούσε ως χάνι, είχε φιλοξενήσει τον Παπαδιαμάντη ντυμένο καλογερόπαιδο, αλλά και τον Βάρναλη όταν ήταν λυκειάρχης στη γειτονική Αργαλαστή.
- το Μουσείο Ραδιοφώνου «Αντώνης Ταβάνης» που πήρε το όνομά του από τον αείμνηστο γλύπτη, ο οποίος λάτρεψε τον Λαύκο κι έζησε εκεί τα τελευταία χρόνια της ζωής του, με τη συλλογή που δώρισε ο Γερμανός Βίλφρεντ Σεπς.
- τις «Μέρες Κιθάρας» Πρόκειται για καλλιτεχνικές εκδηλώσεις που διοργανώνονται κάθε καλοκαίρι και στις οποίες γίνονται σεμινάρια και συναυλίες κλασσικής κιθάρας, ενώ προσκεκλημένοι είναι πολλοί κιθαρίστες και συνθέτες παγκοσμίου φήμης αφού εκλεκτό τέκνο του Λαύκου είναι και ο αντιστοίχου ακτινοβολίας κιθαρίστας Δημήτρης Φάμπας.
Ζητώ συγγνώμη αν κούρασα με τις πολλές αναρτήσεις και την συνοδευτική παρουσίαση αλλά ένιωθα την ανάγκη να μοιραστώ μαζί σας τον αξιολογότατο αυτό τόπο!
Lafkos at Pelion,is a village that is not included in what we would say 'decoys', with particular touristic reputation is.
There are beachfront (the seaport is very famous Milina), not the classic mountain nor has the urban coherence of famous traditional villages of Pelion.
What is therefore the element that carries so much charm to the visitor?
In my opinion this is the love of the people to the place of which pervades every corner: Houses cared (mansions, folk, with neo-classical influences) not for tourist exploitation (there are such) but mainly built with and by personal taste of the inhabitants of the faithful who have not deserted the crisis and occasional use.
All different from each other by only cohesive element the personal stamp of the permanent owner.
That's why the village bustles life. residents are aware, respect, appreciate and continue their rich cultural heritage not for tourist "show" but because that learned to live.
It is the ideal place for relaxed voltoula and browsing the cobbled streets of ap'akrou to end.
Fresh breeze (for the most part not fit cars), admirable architecture, flowered courtyards, green everywhere and vibrant culture to earn creating the need to return there.
The village was built between the 15th and 16th century by Captain Stergios Basdekis. Experienced moments of great economic boom during the Turkish occupation and great is the tradition in the arts and letters.
Particular mention should be made:
-The Fampeio Museum operates in the old building school.In courtyard admire outstanding sculptures from white Pelion marble of the local painter and sculptor Thanasis Fabas, inside panels of the same while the ground floor houses the folklore museum of the association "Action".
-The Cafe-attraction Emmanuel Forlidas.Is the oldest cafe in Greece which operates continuously since 1785 !!! At the time the upper floor served as an inn, she had hosted Papadiamandis dressed as monkchild & Varnalis when he was school director of neighboring Argalasti.
- The Museum of Radio "Antonis ceilings" which was named by the late sculptor, who loved Lafkos and there lived the last years of his life, the collection donated by German Vilfrent Seps.
- The "Guitar Days" These cultural events organized every summer and which are seminars and concerts of classical guitar, and invited many renowned guitarists and composers since fine child of Lafkos is the corresponding radiation guitarist Dimitris Fambas.
I apologize if tired by the many posts and accompanying presentation, but I felt the need to share with you this remarkable place!
Salisbury, Wiltshire UK.
Salisbury Cathedral, formally the Cathedral Church of the Blessed Virgin Mary, is an Anglican cathedral in the city of Salisbury, England. The cathedral is regarded as one of the leading examples of Early English Gothic design. Built over a relatively short period, some 38 years between 1220 and 1258, it has a unity and coherence that is unusual in medieval English cathedrals. The tower and spire were completed by 1330. The cathedral's spire, at 404 feet (123 m), is the tallest in England.
The original cathedral in the district was located at Old Sarum, about 2 miles (3.2 km) north of the present city. In 1197 bishop Herbert Poore determined on a relocation but this was not taken forward until the episcopate of his brother, Richard Poore in the early 13th century. Foundation stones for the new building were laid on 28 April 1220 by the Earl and Countess of Salisbury. By 1258 the nave, transepts and choir were complete. The only major additions were the cloisters, added 1240, the chapter house in 1263, and the tower and spire, which was constructed by 1330. At its completion it was the third highest in England, but the collapse of those at Lincoln Cathedral and Old St Paul's Cathedral in the 16th century saw Salisbury become England's tallest.
The cathedral close is Britain's largest, and has many buildings of architectural and/or historical significance. Pevsner describes it as "the most beautiful of England's closes". The cathedral contains a clock which is among the oldest working examples in the world. It also holds one of the four surviving original copies of Magna Carta. In 2008, the cathedral celebrated the 750th anniversary of its consecration. In 2023, the completion of a programme of external restoration begun in 1985 saw the removal of scaffolding that had stood around the building for some 37 years.

Jannis Kounellis, "Untitled" (1980). The stone and plaster sculptures are recognizable as gods, goddesses, and warriors, but the precarious arrangement suggests a breakdown of cultural coherence. Hirshhorn Museum. (9/17/2016)
Calmness is powerful....It is presented in many ways. Here, watching sea anemone in a small ecosystem in a tide pool and its interaction with the ocean is one of the best ways to appreciate the meaning. Every wave swept from the ocean brings in new nutrition and food to feed creatures in the pool and all of these illustrate a coherence in a highly dynamic environment. While experiencing this powerful message from nature, I am especially impressed by the calmness in the sea anemone, which is in full calmness as about to be hit by a powerful raging wave. ......
Behind the scene story: This shot is EXPENSIVE. After taking this series shots, my beloved D810 took a "nose dive" into the pool..so there goes my camera and lens..it’s a hard lesson I learned in shooting seascape :(
Well, this also gives me a good reason to get a new camera :)
All we have in life is time. We don't know how much, exactly, but we can decide what to invest it in. And that choice builds the pillars of our existence. However, if we give ourselves the necessary space to listen to each other, we will be able to evaluate and modify the results we are obtaining. This exercise in honesty is the first step to stop doing and start being. Ultimately, well-being is not related to what we do, but to what we are, and our ability to live in coherence with ourselves. Hence the importance of taking advantage of the opportunity for reflection that hammock syndrome offers us.
Wonderful Worlds Of Trees In Coherence Toward The Sunlight And The Continued Magic Of Rain Drops.
A drop of water forms a spherical shape on a flat surface primarily due to the balance of two forces: cohesion and adhesion.
Cohesion: This is the attractive force between molecules of the same substance. In water, hydrogen bonds create strong cohesive forces, causing the water molecules to stick together. This tendency to minimize surface area results in a spherical shape, as a sphere has the smallest surface area for a given volume.
Adhesion: This refers to the attractive force between molecules of different substances. When water comes into contact with a surface, adhesive forces can cause the water to spread out. However, if the cohesive forces are stronger than the adhesive forces (as is often the case with water on many surfaces), the drop will maintain its spherical shape.
Un incrocio urbano dove la logica architettonica sembra essersi arresa al tempo. Facciate sovrapposte, materiali discordanti, scritte e insegne di ogni epoca convivono come in un mosaico disordinato, ma vivo. Qui, a Nagasaki, la vita scorre comunque: ombrelli aperti, clienti che entrano, insegne che gridano, segnali che attendono. Non c'è simmetria, ma c'è umanità.
建築の論理が時の流れに降伏した交差点。異なる時代の看板と素材が混在し、不揃いのモザイクのように重なっている。それでも長崎の街は生きている。傘が開き、客が入り、看板が叫び、信号が待つ。整っていなくても、そこには確かに人の営みがある。
An urban intersection where architectural coherence has surrendered to time. Clashing materials, mismatched facades and signage from different decades coexist like a chaotic mosaic—yet life goes on. In Nagasaki, umbrellas open, customers enter, signs call out, and the city waits at red lights. There's no symmetry, but there's life.

Trippin’ trees.
The most frightening time to be walking in the woods is during a storm. You can’t help but imagine being found the next morning crushed under a fallen giant, or wandering concussed (or worse) from the impact of a falling branch.
But it’s also the most exciting time to be there.
The whole world moves around you like being on the heaving deck of a ship. Creaking and cracking sounds abound against the constant primordial moans of the wind in the canopy. A lightning storm at dusk is the most fun time as the light plays tricks with flickering shadows like ghosts in every direction.
These are three more wobbly camera tree pictures taken earlier in the month, suitably over-cooked for Sliders Sunday. For me, the big advantage of a triptych is I get to use up three of those dubious images that I don’t know what to do with :)
I’ve tried to capture the latent violence of the storm in the processing. Without sound to help I’ve relied on colour and the confusion of the wobbles to recreate that sense of disoriented unreality, that impression of chaos and uncertainty. I hope it works for you!
To keep some coherence between the pictures I have used much the same filter set on each with similar colourways. All the creative stuff is done in Nik Color Efex. The Solarisation and Midnight filters do much of the heavy lifting but with things like glows, bicolour filters and tonal filters providethe supporting act. If you would like the presets just ask. (No-one ever does so I find that a really cheap way for me to seem generous and encouraging!)
I’ll post links to the three originals in first comment, all taken on a relatively pleasant winter afternoon. I’ve uploaded the image at relatively high resolution so if you want to zoom in on the individual images you may :)
Thank you for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the images. Happy Sliders Sunday and 100x… and enjoy your next walk in the woods :)
This irregular dwarf galaxy's closes neighbor is 2.3 million light years away, so yeah, we're calling it "isolated".
The drizzle of stars scattered across this image forms a galaxy known as UGC 4879. UGC 4879 is an irregular dwarf galaxy — as the name suggests, galaxies of this type are a little smaller and messier than their cosmic cousins, lacking the majestic swirl of a spiral or the coherence of an elliptical.
This galaxy is also very isolated. There are about 2.3 million light years between UGC 4879 and its closest neighbor, Leo A, which is about the same distance as that between the Andromeda Galaxy and the Milky Way.
This galaxy’s isolation means that it has not interacted with any surrounding galaxies, making it an ideal laboratory for studying star formation uncomplicated by interactions with other galaxies. Studies of UGC 4879 have revealed a significant amount of star formation in the first 4 billion years after the Big Bang, followed by a strange 9-billion-year lull in star formation that ended 1 billion years ago by a more recent re-ignition. The reason for this behavior, however, remains mysterious, and the solitary galaxy continues to provide ample study material for astronomers looking to understand the complex mysteries of star birth throughout the universe.

“Whether it is good or evil, whether life in itself is pain or pleasure, whether it is uncertain-that it may perhaps be this is not important-but the unity of the world, the coherence of all events, the embracing of the big and the small from the same stream, from the same law of cause, of becoming and dying.”

Cohérence et incohérence de la lumière ...
Dans la partie gauche la lumière est une lumière cohérente provenant d'un laser vert et générant des figures d'interférences (petites stries) invisibles dans la partie droite éclairée par de la lumière blanche non cohérente .
In the left part, the light is a coherent light coming from a green laser and generating visible interference figures (small streaks) in the right part illuminated by non-coherent white light.

Heritage Attributes of the Character Areas
Main Street West
• Its role as the western gateway to Main Street and the Down- town Core.
• The predominance of 19th century residential buildings, in particular on the north side of the street, many of which have been adapted to accommodate commercial uses.
• The 2 to 2½ storey heights of the buildings.
• The varied and deeper setbacks of the buildings and larger lots, than are found elsewhere on Main Street.
• The remaining mature trees, grassed verges and front yards, creating a softer character in selected areas.
• The cenotaph and surrounding parkette.
Downtown Core:
• The consistent street wall created by the 2 and 3-storey commercial blocks.
• The punctuation of the street wall by landmark buildings, including the Regent Theatre, the Carnegie Library, the Armoury, the Royal Hotel and the North American Hotel.
• The “civic centre” created by the Armoury, the Carnegie Library and former Post Office building, and the community activities and functions that they accommodate.
• The pedestrian connections and views to adjacent streets and residential neighbourhoods created by the mid-block laneways.
• The visual coherence created by the consistent (2 and 3 storey) height, massing, parapets, roof forms, regular pattern of fenestration, materials (most commonly brick), detailing and setbacks of the buildings.
• The pattern of ground-floor storefronts.
• The quality of the pedestrian realm created by the intimate scale, sense of enclosure and street amenities.

The Fontaine Saint-Michel is a monumental fountain located in Place Saint-Michel in the 6th arrondissement in Paris. It was constructed in 1858–1860 during the French Second Empire by the architect Gabriel Davioud. It has been listed since 1926 as a monument historique by the French Ministry of Culture.
The fontaine Saint-Michel was part of the great project for the reconstruction of Paris overseen by Baron Haussmann during the French Second Empire. In 1855 Haussmann completed an enormous new boulevard, originally called boulevard de Sébastopol-rive-gauche, now called Boulevard Saint-Michel, which opened up the small place Pont-Saint-Michel into a much larger space. Haussmann asked the architect of the service of promenades and plantations of the prefecture, Gabriel Davioud, to design a fountain which would be appropriate in scale to the new square. As the architect of the prefecture, he was able to design not only the fountain but also the facades of the new buildings around it, giving coherence to the square, but he also had to deal with the demands of the prefet and city administration, which was paying for the project.
Davioud's original project was for a fountain dedicated to peace, located in the center of the square. The prefect authorities rejected this idea and asked him instead to build a fountain to hide the end wall of the building at the corner of boulevard Saint-Michel and Saint-André des Arts. This forced Davioud to adapt his plan to the proportions of that building.

Today I met Mariano and it's been one of the most gratifying experiences I've had.
I was feeling quite insecure at the time to aproach to him like a totally unknown, but I believe the best thing you can do with fear is facing it, so I bought two cans of beer and I offered him one of them.
I sat by his side and we started an interesting conversation.
Mariano is alcoholic, which is the principal cause of his suffering. He lives in the street for twenty years now, he is seventy years old nowadays. This rough life gave him several injuries from which he might never recover. He´s got 13 nails on one operated leg and a broken knee on the other one, therefore he needs the help of a crutch to walk the few steps that separate his sleeping place to his begging corner, just twenty meters away. Due to his movility problems, he past the wholes summertime in the same plaza. In October, social workers will come to take him to the hostel where he sleeps until the heat comes back.
He told me a funny anecdote: the alcohol is forbidden in the hostel, so he needs to buy it on tiny pocket bottles. He's normaly using eye drops for his vision problems, and when, one day, he asked the nurse to put his eye drops for him, she neerly dropped alcohol on his eyeballs. Then she confiscated his stash.
Mariano afirms that he who lives in the street is because he wants to. He also says to unlike the 95% of the homeless he knows.
His sanity and the coherence of his speech seems amazing to me. I thanked his time and conversation, letting him know that I learnt a lot from him. " From everybody we learn" was his answer.
--
Hoy he conocido a Mariano, y ha sido una de las experiencias más gratificantes que he tenido. Tenía una gran inseguridad a la hora de acercarme a un total desconocido como él, pero creo que lo mejor que puedes hacer ante un miedo es enfrentarlo, así que fui a comprar dos latas de cerveza y le ofrecí una de ellas.
Me dejó sentarme a su lado y empezamos una interesante conversación.
Mariano es alcohólico y esa es la principal causa de todos sus males. Vive en la calle por ello desde hace 20 años y ahora tiene 70. Esta mala vida le ha hecho sufrir varias lesiones importantes de las que nunca se curará; tiene 13 clavos en una pierna operada y la rodilla de la otra pierna partida, por lo que debe ayudarse de una muleta para andar los pocos pasos que recorre desde el lugar donde duerme al lugar donde se sienta a pedir dinero, a tan solo 20 metros.
Se ha pasado el verano entero sin moverse de esa plaza dados sus problemas de movilidad. En el mes de Octubre, le vendrán a buscar para llevarle como todos los años al albergue donde duerme hasta que vuelve el calor.
Me ha contado una divertida anécdota: El alcohol no está permitido en el albergue, así que tiene que comprarlo en pequeñas botellas de bolsillo. Como suele llevar colirio por sus problemas de visión, al pedirle a la enfermera del albergue que lo cogiese esta no solo casi le echa las gotas de alcohol en el ojo, sino que se lo confiscó.
Mariano asegura que quien vive en la calle es porque quiere, y dice también que un 95% de las personas que viven en ella no le caen bien.
Resulta asombrosa su cordura y la coherencia de sus palabras. Le he agradecido mucho su tiempo y su conversación, haciéndole saber también que he aprendido mucho de él. “De todo el mundo se aprende” ha sido su respuesta.
The connecting bridge between the various buildings of the Museum Factory.
This museum is all about the 'coherence of things'. It is about how nature, culture, science and technology influence each other.
The Williamson County Courthouse Historic District in Georgetown, Texas, is an unspoiled, coherent and intact area composed primarily of two-story limestone structures of Victorian commercial design. Although the buildings range in date and style from those of the first permanent constructions to the present-day restylings and replacements, the majority are considered originals. And the variety and contrast of styles is such that each of the four blocks facing the Square has buildings which give each side a character of its own, although within the blocks and from one block to another, there are enough features in common to afford a certain pleasing coherence. One of these buildings is the Palace Theatre that was constructed circa the 1930's. It is a two-story, three-bay stuccoed building with Art Deco motifs. It originally opened as a 'moving picture' theatre showing silent films before eventually progressing to 'talkies'. Today the restored theatre operates as a non-profit Community Performing Arts facility with movies dropped from the programming in 2012.
On July 26, 1977, the Williamson County Courthouse Historic District was added to the National Register of Historic Places and included the Palace Theatre. All the information above and more about the entirety of the district can be found on the original documents submitted for listing consideration and can be found here:

This narrow alleyway in Bologna feels like a quiet footnote to a very long and influential history. Founded in Etruscan times and later flourishing under Roman rule, Bologna has been continuously inhabited for over two millennia. Streets like this one were not designed for spectacle, but for daily life: passageways for merchants, students, artisans, and monks who shaped the city into one of medieval Europe’s great intellectual and commercial centers.
Architecturally, the scene is unmistakably Bolognese. The weathered brick and stone walls speak of medieval construction techniques, while the irregular textures reveal centuries of repairs and adaptations. The tight proportions of the alley reflect a pre-modern urban logic, where density offered protection, shade, and efficiency. Subtle details—iron lamps, drainage channels, and the rhythm of small openings—show how functionality and restraint defined much of Bologna’s historic fabric.
Just beyond alleys like this rise the city’s famous porticoes, a UNESCO World Heritage site and a defining feature of Bologna’s urban identity. Even where the porticoes are absent, their influence is felt in the deep shadows, sheltered walkways, and human-scale design. This architectural continuity gives Bologna its sense of coherence: a city that evolved slowly, layer by layer, without erasing its past.
Culinarily, these streets are never far from the kitchen. Bologna is widely regarded as the gastronomic heart of Italy, and alleys like this once echoed with the everyday logistics of food—deliveries of flour, wheels of cheese, and cured meats. The city and the wider Emilia-Romagna region are the birthplace of tagliatelle al ragù, tortellini, mortadella, Parmigiano Reggiano, and traditional balsamic vinegar. Here, history, architecture, and cuisine converge quietly, proving that in Bologna, even the most modest alley has a story worth tasting.

Deze foto is gemaakt in Radio Kootwijk.
Het voormalige zendgebouw A is de grote publiekstrekker van Radio Kootwijk.
De binnenkant van het gebouw valt op door een monumentale zaal waar de zendmachines stonden.
Er ligt een prachtige tegelvloer.
De zaal is bijna 900 m2 groot en 15 meter hoog. Ideaal voor de beurzen, tentoonstellingen, voorstellingen en bedrijfsevenementen die hier regelmatig zijn.
Het gebouw is het belangrijkste werk van architect Luthmann en één van de eerste grote gebouwen van beton. Ook de ligging in de open, natuurlijke ruimte en de samenhang met andere complexonderdelen maken het gebouw zeer waardevol.
Bij dit zendgebouw ontstond een dorp voor de medewerkers, werkplaatsen, loodsen en bouwwerken voor water en energie.
This photo was taken in Radio Kootwijk.
The former transmission building A is the main attraction of Radio Kootwijk.
The interior of the building stands out because of the monumental hall where the transmission machines were located.
There is a beautiful tiled floor.
The hall is almost 900 m2 and 15 meters high. Ideal for the fairs, exhibitions, performances and corporate events that are regularly held here.
The building is the most important work of architect Luthmann and one of the first large concrete buildings. The location in the open, natural space and the coherence with other complex components also make the building very valuable.
A village for the employees, workshops, sheds and structures for water and energy were created at this transmission building.
Been on that apocalyptic kick.
The nightmare. You know, fed up and breaking free right before the experiments start again... as they struggle to get the first needle in. Hold still, hold still, you'll only make it worse. You escape. But you open your eyes and no one's there. Where did they go?
Or something of the like.

Selfie. Pleased that it actually looks like my nightmares.-- a jumble of elements with terror as the only coherence, typically low light, trying to escape a labyrinth of decaying buildings.
This year I lost even more shooting space, so a good deal of what I've been (or more accurately, *not* been) producing has been constrained by where equipment will fit.
As of last week I was agnostic on generative art. After taking a more sincere stab in PS, it seems as though there just *might* be a way, apart from painstaking composites, to communicate what I see. Not that it's a slam dunk with one press of a button-- there's as much work to do after using generative fill with smashing umpteen (triple to quadruple digit) layers together. But one distinct advantage is how AI builds around focal length and light source. And a created instead of captured background I think works here as it adds to the surreal/horrifying feel : )
Taken cramped in a corner, fan on the floor blowing upward. Treatment inspired by '90's music videos. Small flash in a 17" beauty dish, sock diffuser on, upper CL, yellow gel for an eerie, industrial feel. Small flash, bare, gelled teal on the floor facing upward against the wall. Radio trigger.

“You have to begin to lose your memory, if only in bits and pieces, to realize that memory is what makes our lives. Life without memory is no life at all, just as an intelligence without the possibility of expression is not really an intelligence. Our memory is our coherence, our reason, our feeling, even our action. Without it, we are nothing.”

Carsten Nicolai, né en 1965 à Karl-Marx-Stadt, est un artiste et musicien allemand basé à Berlin. Il fait partie d'une génération d'artistes qui travaille intensément dans la zone de transition entre la musique, l'art et la science. Dans son travail, il cherche à surmonter la séparation des perceptions sensorielles de l'homme en rendant des phénomènes scientifiques comme les fréquences sonores et lumineuses perceptibles pour les yeux et les oreilles. Influencé par les systèmes de référence scientifiques, Nicolai utilise souvent des modèles mathématiques tels que des grilles et des codes, ainsi que des structures d'erreur, aléatoires et auto-organisées. Ses installations ont une esthétique minimaliste qui, par son élégance et sa cohérence, est très intrigante. Après sa participation à d'importantes expositions internationales comme la documenta X et la 49e et 50e Biennale de Venise,
Son œuvre artistique trouve écho dans son travail de musicien. Pour ses sorties musicales, il utilise le pseudonyme Alva Noto. Avec une forte adhésion au réductionnisme, il mène ses expérimentations sonores dans le domaine de la musique électronique en créant son propre code de signes, d'acoustique et de symboles visuels. Avec Olaf Bender et Frank Bretschneider, il est co-fondateur du label 'raster-noton. archiv für ton und nichtton'. Divers projets musicaux incluent des collaborations remarquables avec Ryuichi Sakamoto, Ryoji Ikeda (cyclo.), Blixa Bargeld ou Mika Vainio. Nicolai a fait de nombreuses tournées en tant qu'Alva Noto à travers l'Europe, l'Asie, l'Amérique du Sud et les États-Unis. Il s'est notamment produit au Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum de New York, au San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, au Centre Pompidou à Paris et à la Tate Modern de Londres.

He is part of a generation of artists who work intensely in the transition zone between music, art and science. In his work he seeks to overcome the separation of human sensory perceptions by making scientific phenomena like sound and light frequencies perceptible to the eyes and ears. Influenced by scientific reference systems, Nicolai often uses mathematical models such as grids and codes, as well as error, random and self-organizing structures. His installations have a minimalist aesthetic which, through its elegance and coherence, is very intriguing. After participating in important international exhibitions such as documenta X and the 49th and 50th Venice Biennale,
His artistic work finds an echo in his work as a musician. For his musical releases, he uses the pseudonym Alva Noto. With a strong adherence to reductionism, he conducts his sound experiments in the field of electronic music by creating his own code of signs, acoustics and visual symbols. Together with Olaf Bender and Frank Bretschneider, he is co-founder of the label 'raster-noton. archiv für ton und nichtton'. Various musical projects include notable collaborations with Ryuichi Sakamoto, Ryoji Ikeda (cyclo.), Blixa Bargeld or Mika Vainio. Nicolai has toured extensively as Alva Noto across Europe, Asia, South America and the United States. He has performed at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the Center Pompidou in Paris and the Tate Modern in London, among others.
It's not my intention to compare colour and black and white. The B&W version was meant to fit in my monochrome album "Huangshan Mountain". Although the colours are somewhat demure they have some added value. It may be attractive enough to show this one as well.
Only for a brief moment a well shaped curve in the proceeding stream of clouds was visible and because of that, the diagonal presence of this mountain, creating coherence and abstraction in the scene.

"La acción es elocuencia".

Nuestros pensamientos se convierten en actos. Y la coherencia entre ambos es la base del bienestar.
Our thoughts become facts. And coherence between them both concepts is well-being's basis.

"I'm not a man of too many faces,
the mask I wear is one".
Digital portrait exploring the falsification of masks in contemporary life. Humans no longer wear masks to authentically inhabit roles, but to construct an artificial appearance: makeup, posing, and exteriority take precedence over inner coherence. The smoke surrounding the face symbolizes this fog of pretense, the distance between who we are and what we show. An invitation to reflect on honesty with oneself and others, and on beauty that comes from authenticity rather than the construction of a mask. Created using artificial intelligence.
Just added to my new Flickr albums "Huangshan Mountain" and "Borders of abstraction in Landscapes"

You spend the whole half term holiday hoping for conditions like these, and it finally happens as you are driving to work on your first day back!
At least I had a few minutes to grab some shots before heading off. I did wonder if I had anything decent as I hate rushing a composition in woodland. As it happens I feel quite happy that I got some sort of coherence out of the situation. The mist was extremely thick as I left the house but by this point it had lifted enough for the light to stream through the branches, just magical.
Please let there be more light like this sometime soon when I can slow down to enjoy it!
This shot was hand held on a Canon 5Dmkiii and Canon 100-400mm mkii lens.

Mettre côte à côte, une robe royale avec le journal l'Humanité peut sembler provocateur, voire incohérent, en fait, la cohérence vient de la géographie, les deux bâtiments qui les abritent, étant à un jet de pierre l'un de l'autre.
To put side by side, a royal dress with the L'Humanité newspaper can seem provocative, even inconsistent, in fact, the coherence comes from the geography, both buildings which shelter them, being within a stone's throw one of the other one.
That was a nice (and productive) summer day, good memories, I was really going with this IR panorama setup I had put together at that time.
I do have a false-color development also, but this was clearly my first choice even over classic b&w, it just made sense and brought some coherence, or made the image more homogenous perhaps, so.. here we are.

Experimenting with...the newest Lion Knights parts
While the newest Lion Knights are too...colourful for the setting of my usual MOCs, I was nonetheless thrilled to get them.
There is an amazing coherence between them, other recent parts with Castle flair, and even older parts!

All One is a temporary public art installation that references the architectural shapes of locations and buildings in Mississauga’s downtown core. Playfulness and coherence complement one another, while the rhythmic and cheerful quality of the work reflects Mississauga’s diverse community and togetherness.
The artwork gathers local landmarks like Community Commons, Central Library, Jubilee Garden, Living Arts Centre, Civic Centre and Mississauga Celebration Square, and joins them with one mind, embodying the people, center of activity and the play of life.
This is the "Soleri Bridge" on the Scottsdale Waterfront. This is just south of the Southwest corner of Scottsdale Road and Camelback Road. I had an opportunity to walk around Scottsdale Fashion Square and The Waterfront.

"Scottsdale’s breathtaking Soleri Bridge and Plaza, by renowned artist, architect, and philosopher Paolo Soleri, is at once a pedestrian passage, solar calendar, and gathering place along the Scottsdale Waterfront. The public space in Old Town Scottsdale appeals to a diverse audience, ranging from casual Waterfront visitors and local residents to students, tourists, architects, and art lovers. By celebrating solar events, the signature bridge and plaza unify the past and the present. The site of the waterway, rich with historic undertones, mingles with modern cultures striving for coherence between humanity and nature.
The bridge is anchored by two 64-foot pylons and is 27 feet wide on the south side narrowing to 18 feet on the north. Situated at a true north axis, the bridge is intended to mark solar events produced by the sun’s shadow. The 6-inch gap between both sets of pylons allows the sun to create a shaft of light as the earth moves. Each solar noon—which can vary up to 40 minutes from 12 p.m. noon—light coming through the gap produces a shadow. The length of this shaft of light varies depending upon the time of year.
One of the most imaginative thinkers of our time, Paolo Soleri dedicated his life to addressing the ecological and social concerns raised by modern urban existence. Soleri’s career contained significant accomplishments in the field of architecture and urban planning. He conceived the idea of arcology: architecture with ecology. His seminal work of arcology—Arcosanti—continues under construction to this day, 50 years after its inception. Soleri’s design of the bridge and plaza encourages awareness of our connections to the sun and the natural world. Although designing bridges for 60 years, this was the first commissioned and completed bridge for the then 91-year old Soleri."

When.
Constructing a public identity.
Making coherence.
Being rational.
Displaying self-regulation.
There are four selves.
Whilst.
On the front stage.
Broadcasting.
Under constant surveillance.
Privacy becomes a threat.
Outsiders are no longer welcome.
In
Fragmentation.
Instability.
Multiple realities.
The burning of bridges.
Work-life is paramount.

Milano Design Week
- EuroLuce 2023 -
Carrying on my reportage on the Design Week,
my diptych to illustrate a collaboration between the English Designer Tom Dixon and Universal Robots, collaborative robots for picking, depalletization, singulation, sorting and production of fulfillment projects.
Here, a robotic model is able to pick up the most fragile and difficult object, a spheric glass lamp by Dixon and moving it around, shaking it, laying it down and picking it up again with absolute zero flaws.
This lamp is a spheric glass led light, in full coherence with Dixon's tastes, obsessed with spherical objects (I'm too!) showing what he asserts to be his perpetual quest for the purest forms. This light with a metallised opalescent copper finish (can be just clear too or in silver as in the forefront of my left shot) is highly mirrored and perfectly reflective during daylight but, what amazed me the most, when switched on, it reveals a multiplicity of internal reflections, too cool. This is appreciable by both my photos that I hope can lend how much this ambient and situation has fascinated me.
And you don't see me mirrored in the globes, although I was just photographing in front, isn't that magic ?
About the Designer Tom Dixon there would be a lot to say.
I will just mention that he designs e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g, from furniture to candles, passing by textiles, home interior items, crockery, stationary, beauty & body care products and even the inside bulbs of his lamps!
He has designed and furbished lots of restaurants and other premises. What I like of him the most is his style of presenting his creations with minivideos & music, and, you can rest assured, he chooses the soundtracks to match them perfectly!
I have taken all my photos "freehands" with no tripod and always in manual modality.
More photos are yet to come in the next days and weeks and will be added with descriptions to my new Album (in progress)
"Anteprima Design Week" on my selection of the novelities and products/companies I liked the most while visiting the "Salone del Mobile" and the biennial Exhibition/Fair "EuroLuce 2023". Tuned !!
