Budapest is the capital city of Hungary. With a unique, youthful atmosphere, world-class classical music scene as well as a pulsating nightlife increasingly appreciated among European youth, and last but not least, an exceptional offer of natural thermal baths, Budapest is one of Europe's most delightful and enjoyable cities. Due to the exceedingly scenic setting, and its architecture it is nicknamed "Paris of the East". The local pronunciation can be approximated by "boo-dah-pesht". In 1987 Budapest was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List for the cultural and architectural significance of the Banks of the Danube, the Buda Castle Quarter and Andrássy Avenue.
Duncan Rawlinson's work is a harmonious union of vibrant color and abstract beauty, a testament to his exceptional artistic vision. His creations illuminate the canvas with vivid hues of city lights and abstract skylines, where the cacophony of urban life converges into a symphony of colors.
The compositions, adorned with bold color blocks and industrial textures, bring a dynamic perspective to the urban landscape. Each image in this series stands as an emblem of Rawlinson's unique interpretation of the city's vibrant energy. His use of vibrant reds, light blues, oranges, and dark cyan, create a stunning visual narrative that transcends the boundaries of traditional art forms.
While technology has played a role in the creation of these pieces, the true focus remains on the vivid colors and the abstract beauty that shines through. The final compositions, reflecting the interplay of vibrant colors and abstract elements, pay a visually stunning tribute to the city's pulsating energy and the tranquil beauty inherent within abstract art.

Last night two of pop music's superpowers came together for a pulsating night at Docklands.
Just over 60,000 fans crammed into an expanded-capacity Etihad Stadium to witness U2 360, the Irish superstar band's bold achievement in stadium rock.
But before Bono and co landed, the American hip-hop superstar Jay-Z was entrusted with opening the monster double-bill.
He provided U2 with a winning mix of pop-cultural prestige and commercial supremacy few acts could, and he undoubtedly widened the night's demographic. His wife, singer-actress Beyonce, however, was not to be seen.
Jay-Z also delivered pop hits, none better than last year's epic Empire State of Mind, which drew the night's first big singalong.
Still, much of his set was a little jarring for this rock-loving crowd and last night was unequivocally about U2.
It's not difficult to get caught up in the logistics of the U2 production - the ''claw'' is 50 metres high and carries 590 tonnes of equipment. But the stage, while vast, feels uncluttered and gives the band access to the crowd on all sides.
Almost miraculously, U2 delivers a sense of intimacy.
The sight of the four mates from Dublin, who have endured for more than 30 years together, entering the packed stadium by walking through the crowd as David Bowie's Space Oddity blasts out is genuinely thrilling. It's a nod of gratitude to fans, an acknowledgment that the quartet and their followers have stuck tight for so long.
Yet Bono was the irrepressible star last night. He used the elongated catwalks to strut, shadow box and spider dance through early parts of the set.
The U2 classics - With or Without You, I Will Follow, Where the Streets Have No Name, Sunday Bloody Sunday, Beautiful Day and One - were delivered in elaborate fashion.
Recent tracks Get On Your Boots and Magnificent were helped in part by Bono namechecking in the intro St Kilda, Richmond and Fitzroy. The gesture to Melbourne was lapped up.
City of Blinding Lights and Vertigo were also given fresh energy.
Songs regularly segued into others in almost mash-up style. Bad borrowed from All I Want Is You. And even the rain held off despite dire forecasts.
As for the sound, it was excellent to fair depending on where you were in the stadium.
''We've been doing this a while,'' Bono said. ''But we're still figuring out so much about music … Keep coming to see us, we're still pilgrims.''
He then spoke of a strong connection the band has with Melbourne and launched into I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For.
The band also played two new, unreleased tracks.
Both were strident efforts demonstrating that these rock veterans retain their hunger.
As if anyone at Docklands needed to be reminded last night.

The valley of the Geysernaya river is located in 180 km to the north-east from Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky among the volcanoes stretched along the east coastline of the peninsula near the so called East volcanic belt.
The Valley of geysers has all forms of hydrothermal activity including permanently active and pulsating boiling springs, hot lakes, geysers, mud pools, mud volcanoes, vapour streams, warmed grounds closely located at the small area.
Der historische Ortskern erstreckt sich um den normannischen Dom, der zugleich die bedeutendste Sehenswürdigkeit der Stadt ist. Die Kathedrale Santissimo Salvatore liegt an der Piazza Duomo, um die tagsüber und nachts das Leben pulsiert. Die Piazza ist nämlich ein beliebter Treffpunkt für Jung und Alt, wo man sich in einem Restaurant oder Café hinsetzten und sizilianisches Ambiente schlicht genießen kann. In den schmalen Gassen abseits des Platzes sind auch ganz lauschige und ruhige Ecken zu finden.
Der Strand von Cefalu ist einer der schönsten auf Sizilien.
The historic center of the town is centered around the Norman Cathedral, which is also the most important landmark of the town. The Cathedral of Santissimo Salvatore is located in Piazza Duomo, around which life pulsates during the day and at night. In fact, the piazza is a popular meeting place for young and old, where you can sit down in a restaurant or café and simply enjoy Sicilian ambience. In the narrow streets away from the square you can also find quite secluded and quiet corners.
The beach of Cefalu is one of the most beautiful in Sicily.

Valley of Geysers is the only geyser field in Eurasia and has the second highest concentration of geysers in the world. Visitors (for their safety) have to stick to walking on board walks to the points of interest. Vrata Ada works like a hot pulsating spring but doesn't actually erupt.
The pulsating xenid (Heteroxenia fuscescens) is a species of soft coral of the family Xeniidae. (each"flower" is about 1cm diam.)
Corals are sessile, which means that they permanently attach themselves to the ocean floor, essentially "taking root" like most plants do. We certainly cannot recognize them by their faces or other distinct body parts, as we can most other animals.
Done in Ai, Finalized in Photoshop
In the heart of a scorched world where skies bleed crimson and ash rains from above, the Infernal Core emerges — a towering cyber-demon forged in fire and voidtech. Clad in black armor engraved with silver filigree and illuminated by pulsating veins of violet and red energy, he walks with godlike menace through rivers of lava. Twin horns pierce the blood-lit sky, and eyes like molten suns stare with unrelenting malice. His body is a fusion of demonic wrath and advanced technology, built for destruction and domination. The earth cracks beneath him, the end is behind him, and war follows where he walks.
Immerse yourself in pulsating dance beats at a nightclub suspended 15 decks above the ocean. The club is accessible only by a moving walkway that takes you through the sky
Be prepared to jump into hyperspace at Skywalker's Bar.
Who would think that after destroying the Death Star and smiting the Dark Side that Luke would open a disco? The man's got ambition! Suspended 150 feet above the ocean you'll find one of the funkiest discos and bars at sea. Getting to this laser and light filled extravaganza is half the fun as you glide along a moving walkway. At night the disco floor pulse beats with an intensity that makes every evening as feverish as Saturday night's. During the day it's one heck of an observatory.

The most amazing reflected green light greets me in the morning on sunny days.
Diffused sunlight is further diffused by large green leaves in a small stained glass window in my bathroom.
I finally couldn't stand not shooting this anymore, so I set up the tripod, and captured this.
It looks very similar to the Northern Lights we get in our night sky, albeit a vertical version of said lights.
This is my tribute to all those people in the world who yearn for a portal, a doorway to adventure, and beyond.
PS If you stare at the green, and then glance away and glance back, it seems to pulse and change size. Weird!

Computer engineer Mark Fisher takes the sound from animals and transforms them into a brilliant array of colors and patterns.
The series of produced mandalas configure what Fisher refers as "the shape of sound". It's a kind of photopgraphy to me, he adds, "with matthematics as the lens and the computer as the camera".
Fisher captures the pulsating rythms of crickets chirping, birds squawking and dolphins singing with high quality audio recording equipment and adds color to the renderings with imaging software.

Be inside the safety of a speed boat as it splashes through the waters at pulsating swift. It’s one of the coolest water sports activities in Andaman that you just can’t miss, swimmer or otherwise.

Project: Tamar Frank / Fireflies
Location De Effenaar
The pond at the Effenaar is filled with blue fog and populated by fireflies. The insects are hidden in the reeds and communicate through pulses of light. Sometimes the swarm pulsate synchronous, making strong light concentrations. In Fireflies the audience controls the behavior of the fireflies. It is as if the visitors upset the insects so that they fly off a little further and quietly resume their original pulse.
With this installation Tamar Frank reinforces the contrast between the clean lines of the Effenaar and surrounding concrete buildings and the flourishing vegetation in the pond. She changes the area around the platform in an artificial natural park, in the midst of the city. This enlargement of the reality reminisces of the eerie, swampy areas that we know from adventure movies and comics.
This project was adopted by Vrienden van GLOW.
Glow
GLOW – International Forum of Light in Art and Architecture
Eindhoven 2011 I 6th Edition I ‘Illusion and reality’.
Due to the dedication of CityDynamiek Eindhoven, from November, 5th to 12th, 2011, the city center of Eindhoven turns again into a forum of interventions, installations, performances and events based on the phenomena of artificial light.
The Subject 2011: ‘Illusion and reality’
Eindhoven is a city of many aspects, it changes between day and night
between being open and insular, between dense architecture and
green open spaces between light and a dark. What one moment
seems a peaceful garden, becomes if twilight falls, a decor of eerie
shadows. What could be perceived as a romantic bridge during the day
or a chilly bicycle tunnel, in the evening, becomes a beacon of light or
a maze of color.
What is the illusion and what is the reality, or where does art begin
and reality end ?
Or is Eindhoven’s reality already an art in itself? GLOW 2011 aims
to show a multitude of these aspects in a route which connects two
pivotal institutions celebrating their anniversary this year, respectively
the Technical University Eindhoven’s (TU/e) 55th anniversary and the
Van Abbemuseum’s 75th anniversary. In doing so, let us wisely meet in
the middle of illusion and reality, because if Eindhoven embodies truly
creativity both necessary.
GLOW 2011
Illusion and reality you would call an ephemeral theme.
It touches on notions like flair and discovery, searching for knowledge and
the imperceptible creative passion of humans beings, something that is not
(yet) known, let alone seen.
Where science and art meet, light is an essential intangible building block.
And it is that connective light that GLOW 2011 wants the public to experience.
The route this years’ net casts is roughly divided into two parts.
On the one hand, there is the well-known urban environment of the
18 September Square, the Market Square and the Town Hall square; places
where concrete and intense contemporary urbanity set the tone and where
artists with firm statements break thought the advertising, street lighting
and consumerism.
On the other hand there are the intimate, romantic banks of the river Dommel
and the lush green spaces around one of the most beautiful campuses in the Netherlands.
It is not easy for artists to add that the impressive context without using
dramatic light. Is it reality or illusion, the magic middle where the two meet?
Who knows? But above all, does it matter?
If you can enjoy the experience you can consider the things you thought you knew and learn just a little bit different more from the realms of the unknown.

The band also played two new, unreleased tracks.

It was as though watching a man drowning beneath the ice.
I see him hitching for breath, chest heaving, eyes wild, fingers whipping at the indifferent, almost invisible, wall above.
I can do nothing but witness.
I, as trapped in these moments, as he imprisoned below, our eyes now connected. His fear, his absolute and consuming terror is loud within his gaze, as loud, I imagine, as his frozen water screams, muted by the barrier between us.
His fear resonates, pulsates with the realisation that we are both completely aware of what is happening and both completely helpless to alter a single fucking thing.
It was watching time run out.It was watching a trapped man caught in the throes of desperation.
It was watching a car crash in slow motion.It was watching a plane fall from the sky, aflame.
It was face pressed to the observation slit upon the cell of a forgotten and falsely imprisoned man in solitary confinement.
It was each and all of these things.It was as though they were all real.
It was and is, this real.
Witnessing Tilney1’s battle with Paranoid Schizophrenia over the course of the past 12 months, his medication changes, his endurance in isolation, his fight to exist and to navigate existence with and often without the regular support and contact with professional care teams, has been brutally illuminating.
Living alone can often be a vicious limbo. Coupled with Tilney1’s symptoms, fears and the crippling effects of his diagnosis and medications, life for Tilney1 has been brutal.
A change in C.P.N’s (Community Psychiatric Nurse) home visits from crisis teams dwindling, due to their own battle with staffing and budget cuts to local mental health services, led to Tilney1 missing medication.
It began, slowly. A missed pill here, a skipped pill there. Soon, bags of unopened medication were stockpiled within his bathroom. With each pill missed, a little more of Tilney1’s character traits, for years suppressed by medication, would rush to the surface.
It was a dangerous game, addictive. With each pill missed, a little more self-confidence and a little more, a little more, a little more. A dangerous game, for soon, without correct and timetabled medication, with no medicinal brakes nor physical checks to slow his diagnosis and it’s multiple symptoms, this initial rush of confidence, of euphoria, would lead to mania and manic episodes.
A potent and cruel trick, being so close to a remembered self, to be led by a hand, so soothing, to seem in reality to be escaping the trap of the prison within the self, yet all the while being led to the inevitable crash.
Especially cruel as Tilney1 was able to watch all this happening to himself, to have that insight, possess that awareness, yet to be completely incapable of intervening, of stopping, to be trapped beneath the ice, screaming for a way out.
Last night two of pop music's superpowers came together for a pulsating night at Docklands.
Just over 60,000 fans crammed into an expanded-capacity Etihad Stadium to witness U2 360, the Irish superstar band's bold achievement in stadium rock.
But before Bono and co landed, the American hip-hop superstar Jay-Z was entrusted with opening the monster double-bill.
He provided U2 with a winning mix of pop-cultural prestige and commercial supremacy few acts could, and he undoubtedly widened the night's demographic. His wife, singer-actress Beyonce, however, was not to be seen.
Jay-Z also delivered pop hits, none better than last year's epic Empire State of Mind, which drew the night's first big singalong.
Still, much of his set was a little jarring for this rock-loving crowd and last night was unequivocally about U2.
It's not difficult to get caught up in the logistics of the U2 production - the ''claw'' is 50 metres high and carries 590 tonnes of equipment. But the stage, while vast, feels uncluttered and gives the band access to the crowd on all sides.
Almost miraculously, U2 delivers a sense of intimacy.
The sight of the four mates from Dublin, who have endured for more than 30 years together, entering the packed stadium by walking through the crowd as David Bowie's Space Oddity blasts out is genuinely thrilling. It's a nod of gratitude to fans, an acknowledgment that the quartet and their followers have stuck tight for so long.
Yet Bono was the irrepressible star last night. He used the elongated catwalks to strut, shadow box and spider dance through early parts of the set.
The U2 classics - With or Without You, I Will Follow, Where the Streets Have No Name, Sunday Bloody Sunday, Beautiful Day and One - were delivered in elaborate fashion.
Recent tracks Get On Your Boots and Magnificent were helped in part by Bono namechecking in the intro St Kilda, Richmond and Fitzroy. The gesture to Melbourne was lapped up.
City of Blinding Lights and Vertigo were also given fresh energy.
Songs regularly segued into others in almost mash-up style. Bad borrowed from All I Want Is You. And even the rain held off despite dire forecasts.
As for the sound, it was excellent to fair depending on where you were in the stadium.

Mouse clicks create circles, which bounce off of each other and create tones whose frequency is (I think) inversely proportional to their size.
There are both high notes and heavy bass waves created from this particular one.
Curator Valerie Cassel Oliver prefers free jazz. But in 2000, when she was hired by the Contemporary Arts Museum Houston, the beats of the Geto Boys and DJ Screw were pulsating through the city’s streets. Oliver didn’t just hear the gravitational force of Southern hip-hop. She also saw its zeitgeist filtering into the work of a new generation of visual artists, who were then emerging from Texas Southern University and Project Row Houses, the renowned Third Ward cultural and community enrichment site.
The music gave Oliver and other Black Texans “a new narrative of being Southern, and a new pride, quite frankly,” she says. “You’re dealing with land: the natural landscape, the man-made landscape, the shotgun houses, the clapboard churches. You’re also dealing with whole neighborhoods and how they shape and mold a certain viewpoint or perspective.” The work of these young artists—including Robert Pruitt, Jamal Cyrus, and other members of the collective Otabenga Jones & Associates—felt both revelatory and celebratory. “They were embracing spirituality. They were also embracing what it meant to be in a Black body in the South, and what had that wrought historically, and allowing the definition to extend beyond trauma . . . as a repository for traditions and a generator of joy and creative expression.”
Oliver was still mulling a show sprung from those synergies when the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts hired her away in 2017. As she combed through the VMFA’s vaults of paintings and sculptures, she found the trajectory she needed: evidence of a call and response between visual art and Southern music genres—namely gospel, the blues, and jazz—that’s been flowing for at least a century.
“The Dirty South: Contemporary Art, Material Culture, and the Sonic Impulse” debuted earlier this year at the VMFA in Richmond, to stellar national reviews.

This World Class attraction was everything we expected and more. Construction has just begun on a major expansion, but that has been managed in such a way that it does not in any way detract from the experience now.
This album focuses on the artwork inside the buildings and on the other interior spaces including the Eleven Restaurant and the Gift Shop. A separate album posted a few days ago is devoted to the two April mornings that we spent exploring just some of the trails that crisscross the 120 acres of Arkansas forest around the museum.
Alice Walton and her co-creative team can be proud of the vision and execution of everything on this 120 acre site.

JAMAICA: The Other Side of Paradise
NEGRIL, Mar 16, 2010 (IPS) - It's just before midnight, and the music pulsates through the massive speakers perched under the ceiling, scantily clad girls in their five-inch heels moving closer to the iron poles.

Award-winning high energy nightclub spread over two floors
After-hours Mantra. Party like there's no tomorrow, The Ultimate Experience.
Celebrate energy in all its forms. The luxury bar and night club in Kolkata - Tantra, has two bars, a pulsating dance floor, a hangout area and ample of space to move and groove.

Budapest is the capital city of Hungary. With a unique, youthful atmosphere, world-class classical music scene as well as a pulsating nightlife increasingly appreciated among European youth, and last but not least, an exceptional offer of natural thermal baths, Budapest is one of Europe's most delightful and enjoyable cities. Due to the exceedingly scenic setting, and its architecture it is nicknamed "Paris of the East". The local pronunciation can be approximated by "boo-dah-pesht". In 1987 Budapest was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List for the cultural and architectural significance of the Banks of the Danube, the Buda Castle Quarter and Andrássy Avenue.
Terrific night out seeing this great band again but this time at a different venue, at Eddie's Bandroom in Moorabbin, a perfect place to see and enjoy live music with pulsating sound and illuminating lighting. Look forward to catching these guys again down the track.
A cool comb jelly. The little multicolored comb thingies looked electrified and pulsated due to light refraction as it floated by.
