I was inspired by the song "Wonderland" by Taylor Swift because I'm going to see her in concert next week. "Wonderland" is about an intense romantic relationship, but as as it turns out, her partner isn't quite the man she thought he was. Taylor fools herself into believing the fantasy she has created for the two of them is reality. Growing up, I despised Walt Disney's "Alice in Wonderland." It was creepy. To this day, I still think it's creepy, but the confusing aspects and all-around oddity in the movie intrigue me. In my photomontage, the fiction books are stories with imaginary plots and characters and unrealistic scenarios that don't actually happen in real life. The girl represents Taylor Swift, or it could be any girl with a curious mind. She's looking at something, but her understanding is distorted because its appearance is subject to the objects she's looking through. In "Wonderland," Taylor and her partner take a wrong turn, and they end up falling down a figurative rabbit hole. The dead end sign with an arrow immediately caught my eye because it doesn't make sense that anyone would want to go toward a dead end. The other images are complex concepts featured in the song and movie as well.

RAFAEL LOZANO-HEMMER: PULSE
hirshhorn.si.edu/exhibitions/rafael-lozano-hemmer-pulse/
On view November 1, 2018 through April 28, 2019.
In the Hirshhorn’s largest interactive technology exhibition to date, three major installations from Rafael Lozano-Hemmer’s Pulse series come together for the artist’s DC debut. A Mexican Canadian artist known for straddling the line between art, technology, and design, Lozano-Hemmer fills the Museum’s entire Second Level with immersive environments that use heart-rate sensors to create kinetic and audiovisual experiences from visitors’ own biometric data. Over the course of six months, Pulse will animate the vital signs of hundreds of thousands of participants.
With Lozano-Hemmer’s trademark sensitivities to audience engagement and architectural scale, each installation captures biometric signatures and visualizes them as repetitive sequences of flashing lights, panning soundscapes, rippling waves, and animated fingerprints. These intimate “portraits,” or “snapshots,” of electrical activity are then added to a live archive of prior recordings to create an environment of syncopated rhythms. At a time when biometry is increasingly used for identification and control, this data constitutes a new way of representing both anonymity and community.
The exhibition begins with Pulse Index (2010), which is presented at its largest scale to date. The work records participants’ fingerprints at the same time as it detects their heart rates, displaying data from the last 10,000 users on a scaled grid of massive projections. The second work, Pulse Tank (2008), which premiered at Prospect.1, New Orleans Biennial, has been updated and expanded for this new exhibition. Sensors turn your pulse into ripples on illuminated water tanks, creating ever-changing patterns that are reflected on the gallery walls.
Pulse Room (2006) rounds out the exhibition, featuring hundreds of clear, incandescent light bulbs hanging from the ceiling in even rows, pulsing with the heartbeats of past visitors. You can add your heartbeat to the installation by touching a sensor, which transmits your pulse to the first bulb. Additional heartbeats continue to register on the first bulb, advancing earlier recordings ahead one bulb at a time. The sound of the collected heartbeats join the light display to amplify the physical impact of the installation.
Three short documentaries of Pulse works are also on view, showing the breadth of the series through video footage of various other biometric public-art interventions in Abu Dhabi, Toronto, Hobart, New York, and Urdaibai, Spain (2007–2015).
Curated by Stéphane Aquin, Chief Curator with curatorial assistance from Betsy Johnson, Assistant Curator.
In conjunction with the Hirshhorn exhibition, the Mexican Cultural Institute of the Embassy of Mexico in Washington, D.C. presents the Washington debut of Lozano-Hemmer’s 2011 work, “Voice Array,” on loan from the Hirshhorn’s collection, a gift of the Heather and Tony Podesta Collection in 2014. On view from Oct. 31 through Jan. 31, 2019, the interactive work records participants’ voices and converts them into flashing lights that come together to visually and aurally depict the cumulative contributions of the last 288 visitors. This is the newest project from Hirshhorn in the City, the Museum’s initiative to bring international contemporary art beyond the museum walls and into Washington’s public spaces to connect artists and curators with the city’s creative communities.

My former colleague Aadjan van der Helm co-organised a course in creating Interactive Environments.
Experience the interactive version.
In the course of the Interactive Environments Minor, organized by the faculty of Architecture and Industrial Design and Engineering, three interdisciplinary groups of students supported by TU Delft researchers and invited guest teachers have designed and built three interactive lounge pavilions. The pavilions attract people to enter, facilitate relaxation and provide a refuge from daily chores.
Exploring the environments made me jealous of the students; why weren't there courses like this when I was a student there? Then again, would I have taken the course? My interests have changed a lot since I graduated 10 years ago this thursday.

The Sea Rabbit (Monafluffchus americanus) of Coney Island, Brooklyn, New York – This unique sea-dwelling rabbit, which is actually a close relative of the sea lion, was officially discovered and investigated by Henry Hudson when he first visited this land to colonize the area by order of the Dutch government. It was named New Amsterdam -- today’s New York City. This island was named after he saw the beach covered with strange swimming wild rabbits. The word “Coney Island” means “wild rabbit island” in Dutch (originally Conyne Eylandt, or Konijneneiland in modern Dutch spelling). Sea rabbits were also referred mermaid rabbit, merrabbit, rabbit fish or seal rabbit in the natural history documents in the 17th century. The current conservation status, or risk of extinction, of the sea rabbit is Extinct in the Wild.
This website features two species of sea rabbits, which have been taken care of by Dr. Takeshi Yamada (山田武司) at the Coney Island Sea Rabbit Repopulation Center, which is a part of the Marine biology department of the Coney Island University in Brooklyn, New York. They are – Coney Island Sea Rabbit (Monafluffchus americanus) called “Seara” and Coney Island Tiger-striped Sea Rabbit (Monafluffchus konjinicus) called “Stripes”.
The photographs and videos featured in this website chronicle adventures of the Coney Island sea rabbits and the world as seen by them. This article also documented efforts of Dr. Takeshi Yamada for bringing back the nearly extinct sea rabbits to Coney Island in the City of New York and beyond. Dr. Yamada produced a series of public lectures, workshops, original public live interactive fine art performances and fine art exhibitions about sea rabbits at a variety of occasions and institutions in the City of New York and beyond. Dr. Yamada is an internationally active educator, book author, wildlife conservationist and high profile artist, who lives and works in Brooklyn, New York.

Sea Rabbit
Other Common Names: Coney Island Sea Rabbit, Beach Rabbit, Seal Rabbit, mer-rabbit, merrabbit, Atlantic Sea Rabbit.
Latin Name: Monafluffchus americanus
Origin: Atlantic coast of the United States
Description of the specimen: In the early 17th century’s European fur craze drove the fleet of Dutch ships to the eastern costal area of America. Then Holland was the center of the world just like the Italy was in the previous century. New York City was once called New Amsterdam when Dutch merchants landed and established colonies. Among them, Henry Hudson is probably the most recognized individual in the history of New York City today. “This small island is inhabited by two major creatures which we do not have in our homeland. The one creature is a large arthropod made of three body segments: the frontal segment resembles a horseshoe, the middle segment resembles a spiny crab and its tail resembles a sharp sword. Although they gather beaches here in great numbers, they are not edible due to their extremely offensive odor. Another creature which is abundant here, has the head of wild rabbit. This animal of great swimming ability has frontal legs resemble the webbed feet of a duck. The bottom half of the body resembles that of a seal. This docile rabbit of the sea is easy to catch as it does not fear people. The larger male sea rabbits control harems of 20 to 25 females. The meat of the sea rabbit is very tender and tasty.” This is what Hadson wrote in his personal journal in 1609 about the horseshoe crab and the sea rabbit in today’s Coney Island area of Brooklyn, New York. Sadly, just like the Dodo bird and the Thylacine, the sea rabbit was driven to extinction by the European settlers’ greed. When Dutch merchants and traders arrived here, sea rabbits were one of the first animals they hunted down to bring their furs to homeland to satisfy the fur craze of the time. To increase the shipment volume of furs of sea rabbit and beavers from New Amsterdam, Dutch merchants also started using wampum (beads made of special clam shells) as the first official currency of this country.
At the North Eastern shores of the United States, two species of sea rabbits were commonly found. They are Coney Island Sea Rabbit (Monafluffchus americanus) and Coney Island Tiger-striped Sea Rabbit (Monafluffchus konjinicus). Sadly, due to their over harvesting in the previous centuries, their conservation status became “Extinct in the Wild” (ET) in the Red List Endangered species by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). Currently, these sea rabbits are only found at breeding centers at selected zoos and universities such as Coney Island Aquarium and Coney Island University in Brooklyn, New York. The one shown in this photograph was named "Seara" and has been cared by Dr. Takeshi Yamada at Coney Island University.
The sea rabbit is one of the families of the Pinniped order. Pinnipeds (from Latin penna = flat and pes/pedis = foot) are sea-mammals: they are homeothermic (i.e having high and regulated inner temperature), lung-breathing (i.e dependant on atmospheric oxygen) animals having come back to semi aquatic life. As soon as they arrive ashore, females are caught by the nearest adult male. Males can maintain harems of about 20 females on average. Several hours to several days after arriving ashore, pregnant females give birth to eight to ten pups with a dark brown fur. As soon as birth occurs, the mother’s special smell and calls help her pups bond specifically to her. The mother stays ashore with her pup for about one week during which the pup gains weight. During the first week spent with her newborn, the mother becomes receptive. She will be impregnated by the bull, which control the harem. Implantation of the embryo will occur 3 months later, in March-April. During the reproductive period, the best males copulate with several tens females. To do so, males have to stay ashore without feeding in order to keep their territory and their harem. In mid-January, when the last females have been fecundated, males leave at sea to feed. Some of them will come back later in March-April for the moult. The other ones will stay at sea and will come back on Coney Island only in next November. After fecundation, the mother goes at sea for her first meal. At sea, mothers feed on clams, crabs, shrimps, fish (herring, anchovy, Pollock, capelin etc.) and squids. When she is back, the mother recovers her pups at the beach she left them. Suckling occurs after auditive and olfactory recognition had occured. In March-April, the dark brown fur is totally replaced by an adult-like light brownish grey fur during the moult that lasts 1-2 months. This new fur is composed by 2 layers. Externally, the guard fur is composed by flat hairs that recover themselves when wet. By doing so, they make a water-proof barrier for the under fur. The underfur retains air when the seal is dry. Because of isolating properties of the air, the underfur is the insulating system of the fur. In March-April, the fur of adults is partially replaced. First reproduction occurs at 1-yr old in females. Males are physiologically matures at 1 year old but socially matures at +2 years old.
NOTE: The name of Coney Island is commonly thought to be derived from the Dutch Konijn Eylandt or Rabbit Island as apparently the 17th century European settlers noted many rabbits running amuck on the island.

ESO-69-6 is two interacting galaxies in Triangulum. I have processed the Hubble image on the left to accentuate wispy detail and enhance colour, while smaller stars are suppressed. At the top is a structure reminiscent of Hanny's Voorwerp.
There are many colourful galaxies in the field. On the right is a spherical galaxy which seems to have a blue jet from a black hole?

@ my workplace. Ss are so excited about the new thing that they didn't even notice I took this pic. Will it last long?
3 adorable Japanese siblings met at Takeno Beah 竹野海岸国立公園
29 March 2013
I noted on the website that the beach was just two stations away from Kinosaki Onsen Town and was touted as Japan's top 100 most beautiful beaches. Still hesistant if we should go there but still went down in the end. It was still definitely an overstatement as the small was pretty small, not very clean and many seagulls and hawks roamed the beach, on the breakwaters in front of us and hovered in the air above. However, I didnt regret visiting this quaint non-touristy town at all.
The beach was about 45mins' walk from the train station (not 10mins as described) and we had almost gave up since we wasted much time heading backwards seeing the overcast sky and hesistant a the sight of construction going on in the middle of the main road. We did end up taking lots of pics of the flowers outside the beautiful residences and having sushi picnic outside the station while watching some kiddos skated on the road, thinking we should wait for the rain to come and go. We eventually made it to the beach despite the hesistance at first.
On our way to Takeno Beach through the main street of Takeno Town, I already spotted the doting Japanese father with his 3 super adorable children. The bubbly & extrovertish elder brother was looking at me & asking his dad in Japanese (I guess) why I took pictures of the bus shelter (something so ordinary to them perhaps). I took a pic of their bikes as they disappeared into a shop that looked like a hairdressing salon so I thought they were locals and going for their haircut.
Much later, we spotted them again at Takeno Beach. The girl was crying a little probably due to some discomfort so the father attended to her & cleaned her runny nose as the brothers horsed around. The elder brother was busy jumping about so I pointed my lens at the quieter younger brother. He was pretty shy but automatically posed for me whenever I pointed my lens at him despite his shyness & our lack of verbal communication due to language barrier. Apparently, he only knew one pose. LOL^^
We tried to interact with the them using simple English, facial expressions, gestures & also our Japanese smart phone apps. The elder brother was inquisitive and kept asking his dad who could understand simple English about us and the English words & Japanes sounds produced by our phones. The sister stopped crying a little when she got distracted by some candies. We took more shots of them and with them and I even got the brothers to jump for some 'in the air' shots.
We then walked together a little when the father tried to led us to a seafood restaurant. It was not opened yet so we bade farewell to the family before making our way back to the beach for some MTV shots. LOL^^

Edited Hubble Space Telescope image of the interacting galaxies Arp 293.
Original caption: Some galaxies are closer friends than others. While many live their own separate, solitary lives, others stray a little too close to a near neighbour and take their relationship to the next level. The galaxy in this Picture of the Week, named NGC 6286, has done just that! Just out of frame lies its partner, NGC 6285. Together, the duo is named Arp 293 and they are interacting, their mutual gravitational attraction pulling wisps of gas and streams of dust from them, distorting their shapes, and gently smudging and blurring their appearances on the sky — to Earth-based observers, at least. The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has viewed a number of interacting pairs. These can have distinctive, beautiful, and downright odd shapes, ranging from sheet music to a spaceship entering a sci-fi-esque wormhole, a bouquet of celestial blooms, and a penguin fiercely guarding its precious egg. Arp 293 is located in the constellation of Draco (The Dragon), and lies over 250 million light-years from Earth.
