The 4th annual Missed Connections event took place on Valentine’s Day (Thursday) 2014 at the New York Transit Museum. Guests got to spin Craigslist postings about those “lost subway love matches” into poetry and music. There was also art, local Brooklyn tastings, valentine-making, and a photo booth.

A continuation of my series.
I am continuing to explore the nature of self and environment, of cause and effect. Grasping, reaching for connections is something that doesn't -- and shouldn't -- end.
Western Connection at the dead Hampton Towne Centre, Essexville, MI. This storefront looks like it was once part of a chain, but I'm not sure which. My first guess is maybe Lerner New York, which I know used to have a store in this mall. Taken December 2004.

“The best mirror is an old friend.”
-Peter Nivio Zarlenga
This was for a conenction photo challenge. This mirror connection thing was the first thing to come into my mind when this challenge was announced. It is impossible to look into a mirror and see someone else, but the idea of looking into one and seeing someone else, someone you've longed to see for a very long time. It's a very deep connection I do belive so. The expressions on the people here make the picture I think, they're so solemn, serious, likethey're looking into each others eyes and they can;t turn away.
Sadly my french connection is only a dress as I would have loved to have been a wealthy sophisticated french gitl living in Paris and spending ;The Season' in Cannes sunning myself and drinking champagne on millionaire's yacts, then in the winter off to St Moritz or Davos for the cheese fondue and skiing. But all is not lost as I live a rich and colourful life even if much of it is in my imagination and thankfully being Jojo too takes me closer to it as if almost half way there. I do like the idea that we can do anything if we put our minds to it but I don't think just closing my eyes and opening them again will quite make it happen. Sometimes though it is nice when others confirm it too even if it a kind of flattery but it'ss always good to know I am not living a total fantasy I really have got this far.

Yesterday someone asked me if I wasn't afraid when getting home and oppening the entrance door, since my building is quite large and I don't exactely know any of the neighbours. I said I didn't. Little did that person know that I've been thinking about my neighbours. I've been living here for almost six months and still I feel I'm a stranger to them. I hardly see any of them. Sometimes we share the elevator, exgange polite conversation. On an ocasion a couple of them actually visited our home for a brief moment. But that's it. How do you connect to people whose face isn't carved in your memory yet? How do you reach out? How can you get in touch, especially in a kind of frigid culture? These questions and some others have been dancing in my head for some time now... I remember how easy it was during the 14 years my family and I lived in Lisbon. It was a small building. Everyone knew each other. One of my teachers had an office there. The old ladies asked how we were doing in school and they had us over for a hot cup of milk and cookies when it was raining outside and we had forgotten our keys. They showed us their picture albums. I feel nostalgic just thinking about it. There were connections. People spoke of deep and intimate struggles and joys in their lives.
I believe we are where we are for a reason. In some aspects I'm still trying to figure out what's the reason I'm here for. And you? Are you hapilly connected?
An eastbound CSX coal train comes around the connection at Greenwich, Ohio, that leads from the Mt. Victory Subdivision onto the New Castle Subdivision.

This is one cheap but effective way of connecting the wire to the laser tube pin.
The insulation needs to withstand 25000-40000V (depending on power supply). We use a combination of shrink tubing and hot glue.
Influenced by two great photographers, Brian Day and Jon DeBoer, thought I would try my hand at some street photography.

AMC Amitron:
Automotive safety has kind of been a bummer, right? Think of how many incredible looking vehicles we'd have now if it was acceptable to leave safety off the table. Doors could be thinner, seats could be lower, and bumpers would be a thing of the past.
Actually, we probably could do those things now—provided our cars were made from carbon fibre and we all wore HANS devices and five-point harnesses. Hell, why not? If you could drive an electric car that looked this good, seatbelts straight from the Indy 500 might be an acceptable trade-off.
It's not often that designer Richard "Dick" Teague gets proper credit for his work. Most know the last names Shelby, Foose, Earl, Exner…but Teague? He pioneered interchangeable body panels—so that brands could have different styling over top of the same mechanicals.
Spending time drafting airplanes at Northrop Corporation and building hot rods to run on California's dry lake beds gave Teague the unique perspective of both a technical artist and a mechanic. Often, I find that when looking at AMC models I feel like the materials underneath the skin are helping to shape its exterior form.
His career began at General Motors—notably working on the 1950 Oldsmobile Rocket—before moving to Packard in its final days before briefly landing at Chrysler, then American Motors Corporation.
AMC was always the plucky underdog, and often styling was part of the process of saving money. Teague's interchangeable body panels led to big money savings, and his ability to innovate—cab forward interiors, subcompact cars, premium-look small cars, appearance decal packages—are all things we see today. Oh, and the first Jeep Cherokee. Can't forget that.
All of this is a long-winded way of saying: the AMC Amitron is a car guy's electric car.
Small, wide, light, and with the wheels pushed to the corners, the Amitron has the proportions of a classic Mini Cooper…if it was made of brie and squished into a wedge. It weighed just 500 kg (1102 lbs.)—100 kg lighter than an Ariel Atom track car.
It was shorter than a modern smart fortwo and wide enough for three-wide seating, a trick that makes it quite practical. Its inflatable passenger seats were presumably inspired by the Quasar Unipower, and so-designed to save space when not in use.
The Amitron, shown in 1967 and the Electron, repainted red and shown again in 1977, showed other innovative concepts: two stage battery storage and regenerative braking, both firsts. Its combination of two nickel-cadmium batteries (city motoring) and two lithium batteries (used as a boost for highway driving) gave the car great range quoted as 241 km (150 miles) for an average speed of 80 km/h (50 mph.)
Of course, the twin AMC concepts never made production, but apparently the company was confident they'd hit on the right formula. Of course, other nascent, stillborn, and bankrupt car companies have said the same thing.
But that's a story for another day.

This Lego miniland-scale AMC Concept Electron - 1977 has been created for Flickr LUGNuts' 104th Build Challenge, titled - 'The Science of it All!' - a challenge for any vehicle with a science theme.
The science theme connection here is the term 'electron' - one of the building block of atoms, along with neutrons and protons. Electrons are the particles, which in periodic metals, are free to move between adjoining atoms. This action - electron transportation - or electric current, provides us with the physical science of electrical power.
