A trip to Matlock in June 2011 meant a visit to the bus station and depot building located in the centre of the Derbyshire town. Here, Hulleys of Baslow 19 (PL06TFZ) rests in the parking area adjacent to the bus station. It is a Dennis Dart SLF with an Egyptian-built MCV (Manufacturing Commercial Vehicles) eVolution body.
Hundreds of owners and fans joined us for our third and final MOD2013 event of the year in the East Coast on October 5, 2013. Fans from all over the world participated in the revolutionary MOD event via #MOD360 to be a part of the mosaic on www.mod-360.com.
Charles Darwin would wet himself if he saw this photo…
At first I thought “damm, out of focus! Fuck walking up all those stairs again!” But then I realised this photo contains all the information to calculate the natural frequency of Evolution!!!
Look closely at the light trails of the cars on the freeway – they are all oscillating – WTF? Viewing large will help - plus it looks heaps cooler large.
Speed of Cars on Freeway = 70km/h = 19.44m/s
Assume driver in the left hand lane of the westbound road is abiding the speed limit as he crosses under the Victoria Bridge.
Assume the vehicle is a standard 2WD passenger car:
Vehicle wheel track = 1570mm =~ headlight separation (toyota.com).
From the magnified image the distance between successive peaks on the light trail oscillations equals approximately the vehicle track = 1570mm = 1.57m.
Time to cover 1.57m @ 19.44m/s by the vehicle = 0.08076 Seconds
So we know the period of vibration of Evolution is 0.08076 Seconds
Inverting this result gives the frequency of vibration of Evolution = 12.3824Hz
Assume that the presence of other explorers had negligible effect on the very large mass of Evolution, and that there were no other oscillating forces acting on Evolution. Thus the vibration observed was in fact unforced vibration, ie; vibration at natural frequency.
Final result:
The natural frequency of evolution is 12.3825Hz.
If this makes no sense, buy a brand new unit in Brisbane.

THE "HOPEFUL DAUGHTER" AND THE PSYCHOGENIC CUL-DE-SAC
Since for most of history mothers raise boys who then go off and hunt, farm, build things and fight wars rather than directly contributing much new to the psyche of the next generation, the course of evolution of the psyche has overwhelmingly been dependent upon the way mothers have treated their daughters, who become the next generation of mothers. Since early emotional relationships organize the entire range of human behavior, all cultural traits do not equally affect the evolution of the psyche-those that affect the daughter's psyche represent the main narrow bottleneck through which all other cultural traits must pass. The study of the evolution of the psyche depends more on developing a maternal ecology than on studying variations in the physical environment.
The evolution of the psyche and culture has been crucially dependent upon turning the weak bonds between mother and daughter of apes and early humans34 into genuine love for daughters (and sons). This means that historical societies that create optimal conditions for improving the crucial mother-daughter relationship by surrounding the mother with support and love soon begin to show psychological innovation and cultural advances in the next generations-so that history begins to move in progressive new directions. In contrast, societies that cripple the mother-daughter emotional relationship experience psychogenic arrest and even psychogenic devolution. Only in modern times have fathers, too, begun to contribute to the evolutionary task of growing the young child's mind.
Paralleling the term "hopeful monster" that biologists use to indicate speciating biological variations,35 the idea that the mother-daughter emotional relationship is the focal point of epigentic evolution and the main source of novelty in the psyche can be called the "hopeful daughter" concept. When mothers love and support particularly their daughters, a series of generations can develop new childrearing practices that grow completely new neural networks, hormonal systems and behavioral traits. If hopeful daughters are instead emotionally crippled by a society, a psychogenic cul-de-sac is created, generations of mothers cannot innovate, epigenetic arrest is experienced and meaningful cultural evolution ends.36
For instance, in China before the tenth century A.D. men began to footbind little girls'feet as a sexual perversion, making them into sexual fetishes, penis-substitutes which the men would suck on and masturbate against during sex play.37 Chinese literature reports the screaming cries of the five-year-old girl as she hobbles about the house for years to do her tasks while her feet are bound, because in order to make her foot tiny, her foot bones are broken and the flesh deteriorates. She loses several toes as they are bent under her foot, to emphasize the big toe as a female penis. This practice was added to the many brutal practices of what was perhaps the world's most anti-daughter culture, where over half the little girls were murdered at birth without remorse and special girl-drowning pools were legion, where beating little girls until bloody was a common parental practice, and where girl rape and sex slavery were rampant.38 This vicious anti-daughter emotional atmosphere extreme even for a time that was generally cruel and unfeeling towards daughters was obviously not conducive to mothers producing innovations in childrearing when the little girls grew up. Therefore China which was culturally ahead of the West in many ways at the time of the introduction of footbinding-became culturally and politically "frozen" until the twentieth century, when footbinding was stopped and boy-girl sex ratios in many areas dropped from 200/100 to near equality.39 The result was that whereas for much of its history China punished all novelty,40 during the twentieth century rapid cultural, political and economic evolution could resume. Japan, which shared much of Chinese culture but did not adopt footbinding of daughters, avoided the psychogenic arrest of China and could therefore share in the scientific and industrial revolution as it occurred in the West.
The same kind of epigenetic arrest can be seen in the damage caused by genital mutilation of girls among circum-Mediterranean peoples that began thousands of years ago and continues today. Since "hopeful daughters" do not thrive on the chopping off of their clitorises and labias, the present cultural and political problems of those groups who still mutilate their daughters' genitals are very much a direct result of this psychogenic arrest.41 Much of the remainder of this chapter will analyze the conditions for psychogenic arrest, when childrearing has failed to evolve and culture remains in a psychogenic cul-de-sac, static for millennia.
The historical evolution of the psyche is a process that mainly involves removing developmental distortions, so that each psyche can develop in its own way optimally. The evolution of childhood, as will be extensively documented, mainly consists of parents slowly giving up killing, abandoning, mutilating, battering, terrorizing, sexually abusing and using their children for their own emotional needs and instead creating loving conditions for growth of the self. The evolution of the psyche is first of all accomplished by removing terrible abuses of children and their resulting developmental distortions, allowing the psyche to produce historical novelty and achieve its own inherent human growth path. Civilization is not, as everyone including Freud has assumed, a historical "taming of the instincts." Nor does "the evolution of mankind proceed from bad to worse," as Roheim thought,42 with early societies being "indulgent" toward their children and modern societies more often abusive. It will be the burden of the remainder of this book to provide evidence that just the reverse is true, that culture evolves through the increase of love and freedom for children, so that when they grow up they can invent more adaptive and happier ways of living. Because we were all children before we were adults, childhood evolution must precede social evolution, psychogenesis must precede sociogenesis."

Evolution - Let there be Light. Licht, veel licht was er zeker! Wat een mooie licht- en lasershow. Dat maakt het werk voor partyfotografen leuk en uitdagend :) Behalve mooi licht, werd er ook nog eens top gedraaid. Held van de avond voor mij was toch zeker wel Markus Schulz. Het was voor mij wel even wennen de weg die Tiesto in slaat. Je kunt het mooi vinden of niet, hij blijft zichzelf vernieuwen. Dat was aan de set bij Evolution ook goed te horen. En dat is zeker knap als je al zolang meegaat als Tijs. Al met al een topweekend, met eerst Reloaded..... Dance into the Future en daarna Evolution - Let there be Light. Thx. Radio 538 voor de uitstekende organisatie. Hopelijk krijgt dit initiatief een vervolg volgend jaar.

Shot outside of Evolution in SoHo (NYC) - They always have the most interesting window displays. Walking by you would never really take notice but the shot brings out the dramatic.
Inked, scanned and digitally colored with CS5 Photoshop. The first and third panels have a second joke in them, if you look closely.
Variation of a text-prompt generation in AI Deep Dream. The text contained the words SURREALISM and GIGER.
The option of Text Prompt is a new feature on Deep Dream.
My prompts are mostly ignored, maybe I try again without Giger ......
However, this result, not in any way resembling Arnold Schwarzenegger, is sort of funny. I think Ape and Evolution beat Arnold.
Evolution from the famous 1959 AUSTIN Seven / MORRIS Mini Minor MK I, designed by Sir Alec Issigonis.
Like the FIAT 500 and the SMART, MINIs are very popular in the city center: their small sizes makes it possible to park them almost everywhere. Even on unofficial places, between trees and little pavement stakes like this Mini on the picture. The authorities seem to permit this phenomenom.
