I was looking around aware of my surroundings...you never know if the parent would get all mad at me.....
So much of life, it seems to me, is determined by pure randomness.

Automatisierte Zeichenmaschinen
Wer sich letzte Woche im Foyer der Holzstraße über die miteinanderverzahnten raumgreifenden Scheiben wunderte, dem wird an dieser Stelle nun die Auflösung geboten: Bei dem beeindruckenden, aber arachisch wirkenden Konstrukt handelte sich um eine automatisierte Zeichenmaschine, die mit Little-Bits-Komponenten gebaut wurde und grafische Markierungen auf Papier hinterlässt. Littlebits wiederum sind elektronische Bausteine, die magnetisch mit einander verbunden variable Lösungen ermöglichen. Input- und Outputmodule werden durch Stromzufuhr, Regler und Sensoren ergänzt und ermöglichen so ohne Programmierung individuelle Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten. Das Seminar »Random Lines« unter der Leitung von Prof. Anna-Lisa Schönecker und Benjamin Knichel nutzt Littlebits um eigenwillige Maschinen zu konstruieren, die automatisierte Zeichenserien erstellen.

Northern pacific and Manitoba Railway station and passenger shed. The station was located on Water Street Winnipeg Manitoba. It was built with a large hotel attached to it. The hotel burned down soon after it opened. The station was then taken over by CNoR and subsequently taken over by CNR. This station was used until the current VIA station was built by GTPR and CNoR as a Union Station in 1911. This station was used as an immigration centre and was altered in the 1950’s. The top floor was removed leaving it with a more modern flat roof and was used as Offices by CN. The dispatchers worked out of it and my late Father worked out of in the 50’s. The train shed was used for many other ventures and lastly as a car dealership I door show room for Century Motors Chrysler Dodge. The building sat empty for years and was demolished in 1982. I have photos in this album of the news article and photos of it being destroyed along with some of the history.
