Getting ready for Art Basel November 11 2015. For her project, Laetitia Soulier is converting a two sided wall from the exhibition space into the decors of her photographs, immersing the viewer deeper into the multi-scale world of The Fractal Architectures. One side of the wall is covered with The Matryoshka Dolls series wallpaper and presents a large scale photograph from that series. The other side of the wall is covered with the wallpaper from The Square Roots series and also presents a large scale photograph from that series. The inside structure of the wall is exposed, making apparent the 2x4 construction beams, within which are hidden small sculptures, dioramas, and terrariums, revealing the world behind the production of the photographs.
Since the captain was a no show, I volunteered the captain the new vessel and get myself checked out on driving it and learning the new electronics. Jody taught me a lot and I wanted to write down quite a few things that I learned that everyone will need to become familiar with on the new boat. This is a cliff notes to help you get started and know what to look for the first time you take the helm. It’s not a user manual or complete by any means.
The magnetic compass is not corrected for Miami, all the electronics are so there is a 6 to 7 degree variation between the digital readouts and the analog magnetic ones. It took me a while to figure out why I couldn’t get the boat going straight.
The port chart plotter at the top gives you the heading to the GPS points. To the right of that is the “COG” Course over ground which tells you in what direction the boat is currently heading. To the right of that is the “Heading” which tells you which direction the bow is pointing, even at slow speeds. With the previous boats we matched the GPS heading to the compass. Now you can stay all digital and use the compass as backup.
The Raytheon control panel (RCP) in row 3 on the left controls both screens. In the upper left corner is a LCD display to tells you if you are working on the Port (Left) display (both have 4 letters to make it easy to remember) or Starboard (Right) display.
