I visited the "Mapping Knowledge. Understanding the World through Data" exhibition in Mons, Belgium, which is European capital of culture in 2015. An exhibition for all persons interested in data visualisation/infographics, and all those interested by the "knowledge" topic. The biggest surprise for me was to discover and to learn more about the Mundaneum. It is the crazy project of two Belgian, Paul Otlet and Henri La Fontaine, who tried in the late nineteenth century to gather and classified the world’s knowledge available on...paper at that time. They created an internet on paper! Their final goal was to design the ideal society, with the help of Le Corbusier. Mundaneum is not only a big crazy project but it is also the place and the concept that hosts the exhibition (The message is the medium. Isn't?)
The exhibition starts with a large timeline of "data visualisations" (maps, drawings, etc) which begins in 366AC.
An interesting part of the exhibition is on the tree (symbol of knowledge) and its use in visualisations to represent the organisation of knowledge. Another part offers orginal works by Paul Otlet done for the Mundaneum project, wonderful. A part is dedicated to "invisible networks and cities" which proposes visualisations of the hidden flow of data around us. To finish, a section on "Data is art" where artists use data to create pieces of art.

this was taken at Bang Melea, a temple 1.5 hours away from Angkor Wat in Cambodia. It was one of the most magical places I have ever been to and a photographer's paradise. The temple housed all the ancient libraries. The state of the temples isn't great...most of the interiors are filled with rubble just like the one above. The good thing about that though is that you can climb through the rubble and discover chambers...makes you feel very Laura Croftish :)
With over 1,000 temples, each unique and individual in its own way, there is no shortage of subjects to shoot in Siem Reap....worth going!!!

The history of the guild house Wolfengasse 4
Information and knowledge of the value of the building of the Bauinnung (construction guild) Vienna
It was the year 760 AD, as a "Poumeister" (Baumeister - master builder) called Fanciscuß Sieß of Eisleben built the Vienna Ruprecht's Church and with this his work the first documented surviving evidence of the activity of a builder on Wiener ground rendered.
A historic date for the Vienna building industry, which should be followed in the previous twelve centuries by a myriad of other historically important events. Important, because there were ever and ever again Viennese architects who attracted attention by their yet for a long time world-famous performances. Achievements that have significantly influenced the outer face of the city of Vienna and which as stone witnesses of the ingenuity, the sense of beauty and craftsmanship and technical skill of the builder of bygone eras fascinate an international audience again and again. A tradition that has become a commitment for the present and for the future of structural activities.
Such a commitment of the Vienna building sector to tradition was also the renovation of the in the years 1849-1850 built Vienna guild house, of a beautiful profane example of neo-Gothic style on Vienna 's oldest ground.
In detail work this listed building in Vienna's first district in the Wolfengasse No. 4 from the ground up has been renovated externally and internally and now reveals in new splendor all its architectural beauty of yesteryear.
That this guild house adorns the lettering "Ancient main builder's hut Vienna" is by no means just a matter of chance. Emerged from the ancient Roman and early Christian builder's huts, the Klosterbauschulen (buildings schools of the monasteries) and Bauzünften (construction guilds), having arisen alongside the Dombauhütten (cathedral builder's huts), the builder's huts can be considered as the forerunners of the organization of the construction industry. Its organizational and legal basis, the so-called Bauhütten orders (builder's huts orders), regulated, among other things, the behavior and life of masters, journeymen and apprentices. Moreover, the handicraft arts have been transmitted orally from builder's hut to builder's hut..
In the Central European cultural area, there were four main builder's huts. Namely, the at Strasbourg, Berne, Cologne and Vienna.
Now regarding the main builder's hut in St. Stephen's Cathedral in Vienna, so was on it on 20 February 1637 the union of all master stonemasons and master masons and their journeymen decided.
So was also the now refurbished Guildhall middle of the 19th Century built by the Guild of civil architects and master stonemasons. In its boardroom some historical interesting memorabilia are kept: so, e.g., two guild boards, which could be described as a precursor of the modern form of a membership evidence.
In the course of the carried out renovation measures but also structural sins have been mad good again, which were committed by the foreign dedicated use of so many guild premises. So was, e.g., the old journeymen hall by relocating a flat with its Gothic arches uncovered again. Today it serves as a club room for meetings in smaller groups.
The guild house is to see in connection with the hotel across the street as an ensemble, and so Wolfengasse presents itself with its Gothic measurement system in full structural beauty, by which also a piece of old-town romance is kept.
The history of Wolfengasse 4
The Wolfengasse 4 is located in one of the oldest districts of Vienna.
Originally it was located outside the walls of the former castle of the Romans.
It was not until 1200 the district was protected by a new wall.
For a long time remained Wolfengasse nameless and was still in 1439 simply as Gäßlein (small alley) denominated.
1695 the alley became "Weißes Wolfen Gäßlein" and since 1862 Wolfengasse.
From 1300 to 1361, the Cistercian Abbey Baumgarten in Upper Austria was owner of the property.
1457 the house became a Burse - home for students (till 1546)
Later the owner was a horse and cart entrepreneur
1801 an innkeeper bought the house
1848 bought the "United Guild of the Lords Civil architects and Master stonemasons in Vienna" the property - Purchase price 68,000 guilders and 100 ducats
1849 the house was demolished, and there were built two four-story buildings
In 1944 destroyed and plundered
1953 reconstruction
1978 renovated under guild master Hofstädter.
1981 under IN (Innungsmeister - guild master) Hutschinski followed the relocation of the offices of the National (Viennese) Guild from the Rathausstraße 21 in Wolfengasse 4
2000 - 2001 - Renewal under IM Grün
