10º dia de viagem - A impressionante (principalmente por fora) Catedral de Colônia. Colônia, Alemanha.
A Catedral de Colónia (alemão: Kölner Dom), localizada na cidade alemã de Colônia, é uma igreja de estilo gótico, o marco principal da cidade e seu símbolo não-oficial.
A construção da igreja gótica começou no século XIII (1248) e levou, com as interrupções, mais de 600 anos para ser completada. As duas torres possuem 157 metros de altura, com a catedral possuindo comprimento de 144 metros e largura de 86 metros. Quando foi concluída em 1880, era o prédio mais alto do mundo. A catedral é dedicada a São Pedro e a Maria.
Foi construída no local de um templo romano do século IV, um edíficio quadrado conhecido como a "mais velha catedral" e administrada por Maternus, o primeiro bispo cristão de Colônia. Uma segunda igreja foi construída no local, a tão chamada "Velha Catedral", cuja construção foi completada em 818, que acabou queimada em 30 de abril de 1248.
Com a Segunda Guerra Mundial, a catedral acabou recebendo 14 ataques por parte de bombas aéreas mas com sorte não caiu; a reconstrução foi completada em 1956. Na base da torre noroeste, um reparo de emergência realizado com tijolos de má-qualidade retirados de uma ruína próxima da guerra permaneceu visível até fim da década de 1990 como uma lembrança da guerra, mas então foi decidido que a parte deveria ser reformada para seguir a aparência original.
Segundo a tradição, no interior da catedral está guardado o relicário de ouro com os restos mortais dos Três Reis Magos Baltazar, Melchior e Gaspar.
10th day of journey - The impressive Cathedral of Cologne. Cologne, Germany.
The Cologne Cathedral (German: Kölner Dom, officially Hohe Domkirche St. Peter und Maria) is the seat of the Archbishop of Cologne, under the administration of the Roman Catholic Church and is renowned as a monument of Christianity, of Gothic architecture and of the faith and perseverance of the people of the city in which it stands. It is dedicated to Saint Peter and the Blessed Virgin Mary.
The cathedral is a World Heritage Site, being one of the best-known architectural monuments in Germany, and Cologne's most famous landmark, described by UNESCO as an "exceptional work of human creative genius". Cologne Cathedral is one of the world's largest churches, being the largest Gothic church in Northern Europe. For four years, 1880-84, it was the tallest structure in the world, until the completion of the Washington Monument followed by the Eiffel Tower. It has the second-tallest church spires, only surpassed by the single spire of Ulm Cathedral, completed ten years later in 1890. Because of its enormous twin spires, it also presents the largest façade of any church in the world.
The choir of Cologne Cathedral, measured between the piers, also holds the distinction of having the largest height to width ratio of any Medieval church, 3.6:1, exceeding even Beauvais Cathedral which has a slightly higher vault.
Construction of the Gothic church began in 1248 and took, with interruptions, until 1880 to complete – a period of over six hundred years. It is 144.5 metres long, 86.5 m wide and its two towers are 157 m tall.
Cologne Cathedral, despite having been left incomplete during the medieval period, eventually became unified as "a masterpiece of exceptional intrinsic value" and "a powerful testimony to the strength and persistence of Christian belief in medieval and modern Europe", as was befitting a worship-place of the Holy Roman Emperor and the traditional shrine of the Three Kings.
The Persistence of Loss - Inhibition
This is a series I am working on titled "The Persistence of Loss." I aim to capture the pieces of us that we lose along the way.

at least an hour of trying lighting and my tripod (finally) thank goodness for good friends teaching me to use it lol Also Im not sure if flickr will consider me safe anymore for this photo, but its intent is art and practice.
I'm making a "Persistence of Vision" toy, which will show a programmed message in eight red light- emitting diodes.
In the Fab Lab we have a roll of copper foil backed with a conductive adhesive. I used a knife to cut out a hand shape. (In this case, I found it faster to work this way than to use the vinyl cutter.) I covered a small metal container with a vinyl sticker to insulate the foil board from the conductive tin. I soldered some surface mount LEDs and resistors onto the copper. I still have more to do!
If my photography had to be confined to a single subject, then that would be buildings that are falling apart. There are two levels on which I see these images as I seek to render them onto a piece of paper.
The first level is obvious, which is the lines. Whereas a new building will normally keep a boring symmetry, the alteration of lines makes for an interesting image. Sometimes the lines lead somewhere, but more often than not they remain hopelessly parallel, as if to point us in a direction of their eventual demise.
The other level is more emotional. These buildings have long ago given up the task of ensuring that everything remain at 90 degree angles, and allowed the effects of gravity to begin changing the course of things. Eventually, the vertical will become horizontal, but until that time comes there is a task at hand to remain as originally intended.
This image works on both levels. The window shows nothing on the inside, and once horizontal lines now point to the direction the building will eventually be. I think about how once people lived here and how it probably held an individual or a family, with hopes and dreams. The inhabitants have moved on in one way or another, and without them, the building is also in the process of moving on.
And after cutting some holes in the box for the buttons and applying a
great deal of tape to hold the components down inside, the persistence
of vision device was successfully modded into a golf ball case. Now
what? Well, I have plans for attaching it to the seat of a bicycle and
scrolling messages while I ride.
The flowering trees and shrubs are being persistent against the snow and cold. It's yet to be seen how much damage has been done by the frost and snow.
Persistence implies keeping your head down and continuing to work when things take longer than you expect. - James Clear

Along the Sitges promenade, rows of makeshift stalls line the pavement — colourful spreads of T-shirts, handbags, and trainers laid out under the Mediterranean sun. Business may be slow, but the determination of these traders never wavers; each shirt neatly folded, each hour a quiet testament to endurance and hope.
🇫🇷Le long de la promenade de Sitges, les étals improvisés s’alignent sur le trottoir — un kaléidoscope de T-shirts, de sacs et de baskets sous le soleil méditerranéen. Les ventes se font rares, mais la détermination des vendeurs reste inébranlable ; chaque chemise soigneusement pliée, chaque heure une preuve silencieuse de persévérance et d’espoir.
Hey, it's big!
I'll just grab it.
Uh, yeah... maybe if I get my jaw underneath...
Maybe if I chew off a bit...
GOT IT!!!!

Cloud rolls in over Sanna Bay from the North but a small gap in the clouds persists on the western horizon and lets through some golden light to colour the water and sand on the shoreline.

collaboration with Stuart Schechter
material: pewter/ steel cable/ ballchain/ steel/ motors/ processors
site: Charlotte-Mecklenburg County Courthouse, Charlotte, NC
architect: Kallman McKinnell & Wood, Boston, MA
commissioned by the Arts and Science Council, Inc.
Persistence of Vision is at once an artwork, an event, and a reflection of community.
The building blocks of the piece are small pewter portraits of Charlotte citizens. These heads precisely reflect the demographic makeup of Mecklenburg County, and are individually controlled by 1600 discrete motors.
At the start of a workweek the heads are gathered into a porous cloud. Gradually, gracefully, they move one by one to create an epic three-dimensional face. This likeness then slowly reverts back into a cloud.
The following week a different portrait builds and dissolves. In a cycle of assembly and dispersion, new faces are continually formed over time.
For example, one sequence portrays an elderly Latina. Reaching an optical crescendo on Wednesday afternoon, her face gradually disappears by Friday evening.
Subsequent weeks witness the formation of a 25-year-old African-American man, an Asian boy, a middle-aged Caucasian woman, and so on. Persistence of Vision is not “of” anyone in particular; it is “of everyone”.
An allegory for the justice system on both the macrocosmic and microcosmic levels, the sculpture reflects the organic process of the law and the society it serves.

"It does not matter how slowly you go so long as you do not stop." —Confucius
PERSISTENCE
All movement is not progress, just as all motivation is not positive.
When the road ahead is unclear, flip a bitch and throw it in reverse.
The team will kiss your tail when you blindly accel up in their grill.
Leading by impeding is most effective when you are pointed bass ackward in the right direction.
