35 - Technicolor Pachyderms
For his Elephant, Rob looked to his favourite childhood Disney film for inspiration, Dumbo. The ‘Pink Elephants on Parade’ scene had always fascinated him so he set about creating three dimensional versions of two of the elephants that appear. Using perspective anamorphosis, there are two specific viewpoints exactly opposite each other which, when viewed correctly, perfectly depict the two elephants. The name Technicolour Pachyderms is taken from a line in one of the verses of the song which accompanies the scene… Can you find the correct viewpoints?!

Visited The University of Houston on a very hot summer day in Houston, Texas. So what did I do….yep...take pictures of squirrels on campus. These are fox squirrels are pretty awesome and they are way more interested in people than at Rice. So much so that I went to the campus store to buy to peanuts. I was opening the bag and they ran over to me! I got some good shots today - Friday July 21th, 2017 in Houston, Texas.
These photos were taken at the Luces in the Sky fireworks show (competition?) at SM City, Iloilo City, Iloilo Province, Philippines, on 2015.01.22 as part of the Dinagyang festivities.
The geometric shapes of the gardens seemed more interesting to me than the overwhelming opulence of the palace. In the background is the city of Versailles.
My favorite picture from my whole vacation. This is Ed Robertson from BNL doing a final strum to a song, and the way it blurred was so perfect. I love it.
Dancing lady in the park of Temple of Heaven 天坛, Beijing. Natives gathers to the area early in the morning to practice Taiji, dance, sing or play games. It is a very interesting site to see before visiting the temple.
I have seen many types of markers next to grave stones, some marking a soldier's participation in one conflict or another, some representing membership in a fraternal organization. This is the first I have seen of this type. It appears to be a rather unsuccessful attempt to garner the same status as the Daughters of the American Revolution while at the same time slighting offspring of the solders from the South.
State of Play: شهر بازی deconstructs the conventions of the game industry, boss fights, Persian mythology and poetry, and new media.
In this participative performance, the audience is provided with a set of storylines that lead to an interactive journey. During this, the audience has ultimate control over the story’s further development through their interactions and narrative choices.
State of Play: شهر بازی is a deconstructed interpretation of seven labors of Rostam, the lonely warrior of Shahnameh (Book of Kings), the long epic poem written between 977-1010 CE by the Persian poet Abul-Qâsem Ferdowsi Tusi.
This work has been developed in the framework of the SHARESPACE project.

The Gates of Time: Monumental twin bronze gates frame the moment of destruction – 9:02 – and mark the formal entrances to the Outdoor Memorial. 9:01, found on the eastern gate, represents the last moments of peace, while its opposite on the western gate, 9:03, represents the first moments of recovery. Both time stamps are inscribed on the interior of the monument, facing each other and the Reflecting Pool.
The outside of each gate bears this inscription:
We come here to remember Those who were killed, those who survived and those changed forever. May all who leave here know the impact of violence. May this memorial offer comfort, strength, peace, hope and serenity.

State Opening of Parliament
18 November 2009
Extract from the Court Circular
"The Queen, accompanied by The Duke of Edinburgh, travelled in State to the Palace of Westminster today to open the Session of Parliament.
Her Majesty and His Royal Highness drove in a Carriage Procession, escorted by a Sovereign's Escort of The Household Cavalry, under the command of Major Thomas Archer-Burton, The Blues and Royals, and were received at the Sovereign's Entrance by the Earl Marshal and the Lord Great Chamberlain.
Guards of Honour were mounted at Buckingham Palace by The Queen's Guard found by 1st Battalion Irish Guards, under the command of Major Alexander Turner, and at the Palace of Westminster by the Nijmegen Company Grenadier Guards, under the command of Major Edward Paintin.
A staircase party of The Household Cavalry was on duty at Victoria Tower, House of Lords.
Royal Salutes were fired in Green Park by The King's Troop Royal Horse Artillery, under the command of Major Neil Cross, and from the Tower of London Saluting Battery by the Honourable Artillery Company, under the command of Major Simon Barnes.
The Imperial State Crown, the Cap of Maintenance and the Sword of State were conveyed previously to the House of Lords in a Carriage Procession, escorted by a Regalia Escort of The Household Cavalry.
Her Majesty's Body Guard of the Honourable Corps of Gentlemen at Arms was on duty in the Prince's Chamber and The Queen's Body Guard of the Yeomen of the Guard was on duty in the Royal Gallery.
The Queen's Bargemaster and Watermen were on duty.
The Ladies and Gentlemen of the Household and the Pages of Honour to The Queen (Lord Stanley, Jack Soames, Andrew Leeming and Arthur Chatto) were in attendance at the Palace of Westminster.
Her Majesty and His Royal Highness returned to Buckingham Palace and were received by the Lord Chamberlain and the Vice-Chamberlain of the Household."
Extract from the Official Website of the British Monarchy:
"The State Opening of Parliament is the most colourful event of the Parliamentary year.
It is also the most important, because it brings together the three elements of the legislature (the House of Commons, the House of Lords and The Queen). The ceremony therefore represents the Crown in Parliament.
As Head of State, it is the duty of The Queen formally to open each new session of Parliament.
This traditionally takes place in October, November or December each year, but sometimes in a different month if a General Election has taken place.
Before Her Majesty travels to Parliament from Buckingham Palace, certain traditional precautions are observed.
A detachment of The Queen's Body Guard of the Yeomen of the Guard searches the cellars of the Houses of Parliament.
This tradition dates back to the Gunpowder Plot of 1605, when Guy Fawkes was arrested whilst preparing to blow up Parliament. Today, the Yeomen of the Guard continue this historic search, in addition to the security checks by police.
Another tradition is the 'hostage' MP, a Government whip who is held at Buckingham Palace to guarantee the safe return of the monarch.
The custom dates back to centuries when the monarch and Parliament were on less cordial terms.
Once these precautions have been taken, The Queen travels from Buckingham Palace in a State coach to the Palace of Westminster, usually accompanied by The Duke of Edinburgh.
The Imperial State Crown travels in its own carriage, ahead of The Queen, escorted by Members of the Royal Household.
On arrival, The Queen puts on the Imperial State Crown and her parliamentary robe ready for the ceremony itself. This takes place in the House of Lords.
Some 250 representatives of the House of Commons are summoned by Black Rod, who acts as The Queen's Messenger.
By tradition, the door of the House of Commons is slammed in Black Rod's face. It is then reopened to enable Black Rod to convey the Sovereign's summons to the Speaker.
This tradition is a reminder of the right of the Commons to exclude everyone but the Sovereign's messengers.
No monarch has set foot in the Commons since Charles I entered the Commons and tried to arrest five Members of Parliament in 1642."
