Inspired by a comment on the faulty Menger sponge, I went back to an old shot and added some lovely Menger sponges, instead of Senor Calatrava's lovely Turning Torso.
The vision of HSB Turning Torso is based on a sculpture called Twisting Torso. In 1999 HSB Malmö’s former Managing Director Johnny Örbäck saw the sculpture in a brochure which presented Santiago Calatrava in connection with his contribution to the architectural competition for the Öresund Bridge.
It was on this occasion that Johnny Örbäck got the idea to build HSB Turning Torso. Shortly thereafter he travelled to Zurich to meet with Santiago Calatrava and ask him to design a residential building based on the idea of a structure of twisting cubes.
HSB Turning Torso is an amazing combination of sculpture and building. It is also one of the few landmarks in the world which becomes part of everyday life with its ten floors of offices, 147 apartments and meeting facilities on the two top floors.
Santiago Calatrava
The architect behind HSB Turning Torso is Santiago Calatrava. The Spaniard is one of the most fascinating architects of our time and is responsible for a number of fascinating projects.
Calatrava is a trained sculptor, architect and engineer and is among other things responsible for projects such as the Olympic Sports Complex in Athens and the World Trade Center Transportation Hub which is being built in connection with Ground Zero. He has also created several bridges, railway stations and air traffic control towers.

This was the first try for this sort of turning. There are several more pieces for the chimney and domes with similar setups, but as concave instead of convex curves.
So I moved the mill forward a little bit at a time and once far enough forward, put it back on the floor, and then "walked" it little bit at a time using the tanker bar in front and back slowly rotating the mill so it was lined up with the corner it was headed.
No fish, nor fowl, - only fresh fruit for this lady!
Really happy with the background... Went to the local bingo parlor and asked if I could raid their waste baskets. Go ahead, the lady said, and boy, did I go to town!
Painted over with acrylics, my fave.

We've come this far, they say,we might as well keep going.
Now that we've chosen this path, they say, we're going to see it out.
Once you commit, they say, there's no turning back.
But - there is. There always is. There is always another way, if what we're doing is wrong, we can always go back and take a different approach.
Whatever they say, I think you can safely ignore it.

This is my baby, Brady. He turned 16 yesterday. He's my third son, the funny one (must have my sense of humor, haha!), the sensitive soul in our family. He'll be the one who will photo bomb a picture I'm trying to take & if I beg hard enough the one who will give in and let me take a picture of him :) He's a terrific uncle, brother & son. Happy 16th my sweet boy! <3
