This origami Rose is invented by Toshikazu Kawasaki. He is a Japanese origami designer, who is known for his geometrically innovative models. He is particularly famous for his series of fourfold symmetry origami "roses", all based on a twisting maneuver that allows the petals to seem to curl out from the center of the flower.
It is one of the most beautiful roses ever designed and has inspired many other. I folded this famous model many, many years ago, but never made a photo of it, so I folded it again ;-)

Measuring 46 feet across and spanning the length of the gallery’s wall, the monumental Joystick is an ode to Rosenquist’s love of flying. Based on reflections from a mirrored cylinder, packed with gyrating forms that move at incredible speed, the space of Joystick is invented, abstract, and wholly optical. “The priority for me is visual invention and, really, content is secondary,” Rosenquist told the late art historian Robert Rosenblum. By contrast, the central expanse of The Geometry of Fire is a reflection of real space. Painted after a devastating fire destroyed the artist’s Florida studio, the 25 foot long picture depicts the wildness of fire on the left and the destruction it causes, seen in the melting, exploding hub caps on the right. At the picture’s center is the mysterious cosmos, populated with the galaxies, star showers and black holes that became the subject of Rosenquist’s last paintings.

''...Non c'è niente di inevitabile nel mondo com'è adesso. È solo una dei milioni di forme possibili, ed è venuta fuori sgradevole e ostile e rigida per chi ci vive. Ma possiamo inventarcene di completamente diverse, se vogliamo. Possiamo smantellare tutto quello che abbiamo intorno così com'è, le città come sono e le famiglie come sono e i modi di lavorare e di studiare e le strade e le case e gli uffici e i luoghi pubblici e le automobili e i vestiti e i modi di parlarci e guardarci come sono. Possiamo inventare soluzioni completamente diverse, fare a meno del denaro e dei materiali freddi e duri e dei motori e del potere, se vogliamo.
Possiamo riempire di alberi le città, far crescere foreste nelle piazze, rompere l’asfalto e restringere le strade e dipingere tutto a colori vivi, e chiudere tutte le fabbriche e inventare altri modi di lavorare, produrre solo cose che servono davvero e solo con materiali che danno piacere a chi le usa. Possiamo inventare altri mezzi di trasporto, costruire laghi e vie d’acqua e mettere musica nelle strade, possiamo trasformare la vita in una specie di avventura da libro illustrato, se vogliamo.
Non c’è nessun limite a quello che si può inventare, se solo usiamo le risorse che adesso vengono rovesciate per alimentare questo mondo detestabile...''

Fábricas del amor.
Y construí tu rostro.
Con adivinaciones del amor, construía tu rostro
en los lejanos patios de la infancia.
Albañil con vergüenza,
yo me oculté del mundo para tallar tu imagen,
para darte la voz,
para poner dulzura en tu saliva.
Cuántas veces temblé
apenas si cubierto por la luz del verano
mientras te describía por mi sangre.
Pura mía,
estás hecha de cuántas estaciones
y tu gracia desciende como cuántos crepúsculos.
Cuántas de mis jornadas inventaron tus manos.
Qué infinito de besos contra la soledad
hunde tus pasos en el polvo.
Yo te oficié, te recité por los caminos,
escribí todos tus nombres al fondo de mi sombra,
te hice un sitio en mi lecho,
te amé, estela invisible, noche a noche.
Así fue que cantaron los silencios.
Años y años trabajé para hacerte
antes de oír un solo sonido de tu alma.
Juan Gelman.
Every day is a new day.
Everything to be invented,
everything to live,
all to enjoy.
The dawn puts him on the stage of your life,
and leaves.
The new day is yours, it belongs to you,
No one can take it away from you.
You can do whatever you want with it.
You can make it a masterpiece or a fiasco.
Because you are the subjectist...
Because you're the director...
Because you are the protagonist

Des friction lights de John Walker aux lucifers de Samuel Jones
Le pharmacien John Walker est celui qui a inventé, en 1827, la première allumette qui s’allume par friction, comme on la connaît aujourd’hui. S’inspirant des travaux d’un physicien et chimiste irlandais, Robert Boyle, il imagine un mélange qui, par friction sur une surface rugueuse, peut s’enflammer. En bon scientifique qu’il était, et ne voulant pas faire connaître le procédé de sa découverte, il refuse de la breveter, se contentant de commercialiser lui-même son produit, et de vaquer à ses occupations de pharmacien, botaniste et minéralogiste. Ce procédé de fabrication des allumettes finit par être breveté sous le nom de lucifers par un certain Samuel Jones. Les lucifers présentaient néanmoins de nombreux problèmes : flamme instable et violente, odeur désagréable. On dit que malgré tous ces désagréments, le nombre de fumeurs augmenta en raison de cette invention. Ils pouvaient enfin déambuler dans la nature, avec leurs cigarettes, cigares et pipes, en toute indépendance.
From John Walker's Friction Lights to Samuel Jones' Lucifers
In 1827, the pharmacist John Walker invented the first friction-lighting match, as we know it today. Inspired by the work of an Irish physicist and chemist, Robert Boyle, he imagined a mixture that could ignite by friction on a rough surface. As a good scientist, and not wanting to make the process of his discovery known, he refused to patent it, contenting himself with marketing his product himself, and going about his business as a pharmacist, botanist and mineralogist. This process for manufacturing matches ended up being patented under the name of Lucifers by a certain Samuel Jones. However, Lucifers presented many problems: unstable and violent flame, unpleasant odor. It is said that despite all these inconveniences, the number of smokers increased because of this invention. They could finally wander around in nature, with their cigarettes, cigars and pipes, in complete independence.

Antes de que la navegación GPS y los radios fueran inventados, un faro se colocaba como el punto de destino de muchos marineros y capitanes que ya estaban en el agua con su embarcación. El faro fue creado en la década de 1700 y fue un punto focal de bienvenida para aquellos que necesitan ayuda y luz para llevarlos de vuelta a la costa con seguridad.
Hoy en día con la tecnología del GPS (sistema de posicionamiento global, en inglés) los faros casi son algo obsoleto. Aún así siguen manteniendo muchos de ellos su majestuosidad. Fuerteventura conserva varios de ellos, como son el Faro de Isla de Lobos, el Faro de Jandía, el Faro del Cotillo o el Faro de la Entallada.
El faro de la Entallada, consta de una torre y tres viviendas iguales. Precisamente este faro fue el último en construirse en España, 1953
Se encuentra en el municipio de Tuineje, a unos 6 km del pueblo de Las Playitas, y a unos 12 km de Gran Tarajal. Esta ubicado en la cima de un acantilado de 200 metros de altura, y es el punto geográfico de Canarias más cercano a África (unos 100 kilómetros).
Las vistas son espectaculares, tanto al mar como al Monumento Natural Cuchillos de Vigán, zona protegida debido a su alto interés científico. Los Cuchillos son montañas alargadas entre dos valles, y son restos de grandes acumulaciones de coladas volcánicas que formaron grandes edificios. Su altura es de 500 metros.
Es Anatole France,... quien sostiene que debemos reconocer de una vez por todas que "tras haber fracasado en el intento por mantenernos en paz con nosotros mismos, ya solamente podemos hablar de nosotros mismos".
...sostuvo que no existían normas ni principios, lo cual bien pudiera ser verdad. Las normas, los principios y los criterios mueren o desaparecen a diario. Tal vez, a estas horas ya estén todos muertos, ya hayan desaparecido todos. Más que nunca, ésta es una época valerosa y libre en la que se han destruido los hitos que marcaban la tierra, en tanto las mentes de más ingenio se afanan por inventar nuevos faros que, consuela pensar, no tardarán en levantarse en los antiguos lugares.

For my copyright by mankind theme I chose the average kitchen sponge. HSoS!. History below from reference.com:
German scientist Otto Bayer, who founded the Bayer Company, was the inventor of polyurethane foam, the material from which sponges are made. Bayer invented this material by accident in 1937.
As German scientists persisted in creating uses for polyurethane foam, they created a defective batch that had many air bubbles. The outcome resembled sea sponges, which had been used since the Middle Ages to help wash the body. Prior to that, people used rags to wash dishes.
The earliest polyurethane sponges were easily destroyed during dish washing due to their fragility. As the technology progressed, these sponges were designed to be more durable.

This doorway is on Broad Street. I liked the bench and shadows. The boot scraper always reminds me of how filthy streets used to be with open sewers and no street cleaning. I think it was Ben Franklin who invented street cleaning, all those years ago (but well after this boot scraper was fitted obviously). I think there's a horse mounting block in the car park here behind the building.

Thermoscope invented by Galileo Galilei in the early 1600s.
A brief on the science behind it:
Archimedes’ Principle: Objects float or sink depending on whether they are less or denser than the fluid they’re in.
Liquid Density: The clear liquid inside the thermoscope expands slightly as it warms, making it less dense. When it cools, it contracts and becomes denser.
Calibrated Bulbs: Each colored glass bulb has a small metal tag with a specific weight. These weights are carefully chosen so that at certain temperatures, the buoyant force matches the bulb’s weight.

Et si tu n'existais pas
Dis-moi pourquoi j'existerais
Pour traîner dans un monde sans toi
Sans espoir et sans regret
Et si tu n'existais pas
J'essaierais d'inventer l'amour
Comme un peintre qui voit sous ses doigts
Naître les couleurs du jour
Et qui n'en revient pas
Et si tu n'existais pas
Dis-moi pour qui j'existerais
Des passantes endormies dans mes bras
Que je n'aimerais jamais
Et si tu n'existais pas
Je ne serais qu'un point de plus
Dans ce monde qui vient et qui va
Je me sentirais perdu
J'aurais besoin de toi
Et si tu n'existais pas
Dis-moi comment j'existerais
Je pourrais faire semblant d'être moi
Mais je ne serais pas vrai
Et si tu n'existais pas
Je crois que je l'aurais trouvé
Le secret de la vie, le pourquoi
Simplement pour te créer
Et pour te regarder
Et si tu n'existais pas
Dis-moi pourquoi j'existerais
Pour traîner dans un monde sans toi
Sans espoir et sans regret
Et si tu n'existais pas
J'essaierais d'inventer l'amour
Comme un peintre qui voit sous ses doigts
Naître les couleurs du jour
This beautiful song was performed by Joe Dassin, who was born in Brooklyn, New York City, to Jewish-American parents. His father was the film director Jules Dassin, and his mother was the violinist Béatrice Launer, who studied at the Juilliard School. Both of his parents were mostly of Ukrainian-Jewish extraction from Kamianets-Podilskyi, Sataniv, and Buchach.
I heard this song in June of 1998. I listened to the tape for the next two years because it matched my feelings at the time.
P.S. Only a decade later, I found out where he was actually from… not too far from me.
Invented in the 19th century, this type of extinguisher was filled with sodium bicarbonate solution. To operate, a plunger at the thick end was banged on the floor, smashing a glass phial of sulphuric acid inside the unit. The acid reacted violently with the bicarbonate and the carbon dioxide produced pressurised the container expelling the contents through the tapered nozzle. Best not to lean over it while operating the plunger then! Seen in the historical section of Snape Maltings, in its original position on the malting floor.
