A legendary warrior from an all but forgotten race, Ceth is a master of all elements. Ceth is one of the Conduits, a mighty race who could harness the powers of the elements by using different magical chemicals, called elixirs. After a terrible war with the mask makers, the Conduits were nearly wiped out. As one of the last of his kind, Ceth wears an elixir pack with six elemental elixirs. He can control the elements directly, or he can charge his weapons with energy. He can only use a single element at a given moment, and repeated use of an elixir will use it up. His switch sabers can be used as swords, scythes, or spears.

Décor de cinéma de la piste de danse du film "Le Bal" d'Ettore Scola (1983), France, Italie, Algérie, auquel il est fait référence dans le film réalisé par l'artiste et qui est projeté dans une salle du pavillon.
Installation de Zineb Sedira, plasticienne, réalisatrice (Paris, 1963, vit à Londres)
Pavillon de la France
Giardini, 59ème Biennale de Venise 2022
Producteur : Institut Français
Commissaires : Yasmina Reggad, Sam Bardaouil et Till Fellrath
L'installation vidéo de Zineb Sedira interroge les raisons qui, dans les années 1960 et 1970, ont conduit à la réalisation de films militants, témoignage du partenariat culturel né autrefois entre les deux rives de la Méditerranée. Zineb Sedira transforme le Pavillon français en studio de cinéma, brouillant les frontières entre fiction et réalité, entre mémoire personnelle et mémoire collective.... Artiste française à l'identité plurielle, Zineb Sedira a bâti son entreprise sur son parcours personnel entre la France, le Royaume-Uni et l'Algérie... Extrait du site de la Biennale d'art
www.labiennale.org/it/arte/2022/francia
Si cette artiste franco-algérienne, formée, travaillant et vivant à Londres, est censée représenter la France dans cette exposition internationale, elle est surtout un miroir de sa culpabilité vis à vis des peuples que notre pays a colonisés dans le passé. Le choix de Zineb Sedira de parler anglais dans son film (sans sous-titrage), alors qu'elle parle parfaitement français, est une première dans le pavillon de la France qui jusqu'à présent respectait notre langue. Certes le monde de l'art est international et le marché pratique essentiellement la langue anglaise mais en ce cas à quoi bon poursuivre cette forme de représentation nationale devenue illusoire ? Le role de l'Institut français devient totalement incompréhensible.
Du fait de son histoire familiale (ses parents, militants de l'indépendance algérienne, ont néanmoins quitté l'Algérie pour habiter la France, tout en rêvant de partir au Royaume-Uni), Zineb Sedira est une artiste à l'identité plurielle comme beaucoup d'autres artistes présents à la Biennale. Elle illustre parfaitement la pensée d'Emmanuel Macron qui déclarait en 2017 : «Il n'y a pas de culture française. Il y a une culture en France. Elle est diverse». Même si c'est vrai, la langue française reste quand même le lien culturel majeur dans la nation or dans ce cas, il est rompu.
An old photograph taken in what I think is Bispham Depot, of Blackpool Electric Tramway Co. (BET) car No. 4. The photo was originally very dark sepia which I changed to B&W and brightened up, hence the obvious grain showing. The car could be showing No.1 which it received when restored for the tramways 75th anniversary in 1960.
The photo reverse is stamped with the photographer and/or negative owner name R. L. Isles.
Another photo of this car is here:-
No. 4 was built for the 'Blackpool Electric Tramway' (BET) by the 'Lancaster Railway Carriage & Wagon Co.' of Lancaster, seating 16/16, running on a 4-wheel Trunnion truck, being conduit powered with a chain drive to one axle. It arrived in Blackpool Jun 1885 and went into service on the first day of tram operations on 29th September, in Sep 1893 the BET lease expired, the Corporation taking it over and operating as 'Blackpool Corporation Tramway'. In March 1894 it was renovated (by the Lancaster works) and given a new ECC truck, new lifeguard, and an improved handbrake. In 1899 it was converted to run off overhead wires, from then on being used as a works car out of season and for passengers in the summer. It became a permanent works car in 1905 and in 1912 had a overhead tower gantry fitted, fortunately when it was withdrawn in 1934 it was stored out of sight at the back of Bispham Depot until 1960 when it was moved to Rigby Road for restoration to take part in the tramways 75th anniversary, being renumbered No. 1, but eventually returning to its original No. 4.
It has since been used in public a number of times including the BCT centenary celebrations in Sep 1985, but is currently a static exhibit at Crich. For the centenary it was converted to run on a 6hp battery powered electric motor which it still uses, being driven via a chain drive to one axle, the same as when originally running from conduit power in 1885.

Surviving streetcar conduit trackage in Georgetown, once part of the DC Transit system. This track and the surrounding cobblestones have since been restored in place. I understand that although they were able to reuse the girder rail. the conduit slot rails were deemed unsalvageable and were simulated with some simple steel shapes.
The Conduit Head, to the left, was erected in 1829 and is grade II listed.
"Youlgreave is a village and civil parish in the Derbyshire Peak District, lying on the River Bradford, 2 1⁄2 miles (4.0 km) south of Bakewell. Both spellings are used on different local signposts and on different maps. The name possibly derives from "yellow grove" coming from the ore mined locally being yellow in colour, though historically the village was called "Giolgrave". The village is locally known as "Pommy". The population of the parish in 1991 was 1256; it is one of the largest villages wholly within the Peak District National Park.
As well as three public houses (the George Hotel, The Farmyard Inn and The Bulls Head Hotel), the village has a filling station (Youlgreave Garage), a doctors' surgery and three shops (one with a post office annex)." - info from Wikipedia.
Summer 2019 I did a solo cycling tour across Europe through 12 countries over the course of 3 months. I began my adventure in Edinburgh, Scotland and finished in Florence, Italy cycling 8,816 km. During my trip I took 47,000 photos.

Michel Houellebecq
Rester vivant
Exposition
Du 23/06/2016 au 11/09/2016
L’exposition est un scénario qui conduit le visiteur au travers des obsessions de l’écrivain. Composée de sons, de photographies, d’installations et de films conçus par lui et par d’autres artistes invités (Robert Combas, Raphaël Sohier, Renaud Marchand et Maurice Renoma), elle offre ainsi une plongée dans le cerveau et le monde de ce créateur protéiforme qu’est Michel Houellebecq.
Commissaire : Jean de Loisy

Le veau d’or est toujours debout ;
on encense
sa puissance
d’un bout du monde à l’autre bout !
Pour fêter l’infâme idole,
rois et peuples confondus,
au bruit sombre des écus,
dansent une ronde folle
autour de son piédestal !
Et Satan conduit le bal !
TOUS
Et Satan conduit le bal !
MÉPHISTOPHÉLÈS
Le veau d’or est vainqueur des dieux ;
dans sa gloire
dérisoire
le monstre abject insulte aux cieux !
Il contemple, ô rage étrange !
à ses pieds le genre humain
se ruant, le fer en main,
dans le sang et dans la fange
où brille l’ardent métal !
Et Satan conduit le bal !
TOUS
Et Satan conduit le bal !
FAUST (Charles Gounod)
Some surviving New York City streetcar conduit track (underground power supply) from the old Third Ave. Railway. June, 2006. Under Riverside Drive on 12th Ave. at St Clair Pl., since removed. Our friend Bill Wall took us on a little tour to see this and some other interesting traction history items.
