Interlocking building as a concept of balanced interaction between wall and opening. This allows views into the environment and at the same time offers windowless wall surfaces as a place of retreat.

We all know that diversity makes for a rich tapestry, and we must understand that all the threads of the tapestry are equal in value no matter what their color.

United Kingdom, Northern Ireland, Antrim Coast, Giant’s Causeway
The Giant's Causeway is an area of about 40,000 interlocking basalt columns. It is located in County Antrim on the northeast coast of Northern Ireland. Most of the columns are hexagonal. Some 50 to 60 million years ago, during the Paleogene period, Antrim was subject to intense volcanic activity. As the lava cooled rapidly, contraction occurred. Legend tells of an Irish warrior Fionn mac Cumhaill, who built a causeway to Scotland because he was challenged by a Scottish giant, Benandonner. Now Benandonner was much much larger than Fionn, so he tried to think of a way out. His wife, Oonagh, came up with an ingenious idea. When Benandonner crossed the bridge looking for him, Oonagh disguised Fionn as a baby and tucked him in a cradle. When Benandonner came, Oonagh told him that Fionn was out woodcutting, but he should be back soon. She showed him 'Fionn's son'. When Benandonner saw the size of the baby, he had no desire to see the father! Benandonner fled home in terror, ripping up the Causeway behind him, so the 'enormous Finn MacCool', would not follow him.
The Kilfitt 90mm macro lens from the 1950s produces this characteristic and quite unique double circle bokeh. The lens includes a 'bi-radial' element, which effectively makes it an early aspherical lens design, something that's usually considered to be a modern innovation. I'm not sure if the design had the desired effect but it does something no other lens can do. It gets more normal stopped-down a little :-)
This crazy one piece wooden tripod is for holding either the reflecting stainless globe, Lens Ball, or a globe. Carved so that one piece became three hinged pieces interlocked into one.
