This sort of makes it clear what you can't take on the plane with you. "Sword, pike and sabre, etc., used by the literary and artistic unit's performing" means fake weapons that might be used by a Shakespeare company to stage a swordfight. It took us a while to figure that one out.

 

Here's the complete text:

 

On the basis of the chinese aviation's safety check up regulations, prohibit travellers carrying their luggages matters by them but can act as checking:

 

Kitchen knife, big scissors, big fruit knife, razor, etc. Live used things, scalpel, butcher's knife, carvingtoos, etc. special Cutting tools, sword, pike and sabra etc. used by the literary and artistic unit's performing, as well as

 

Axe, chisel, hammer, awl, walking stick with weighted or sharp nail, mountainclimbing sticke with iron.

 

Head, and others can be used harm flying safe's sharp weapons and blunt weaponts.

I have a healthy fascination with the Precession of the Equinoxes; specifically the manifestation of this celestial phenomenon as the definitive marker of Time for ancients across the globe. Precession is a modern astronomical term that describes the profoundly slow wobble of the Earth on its axis as it moves through the sphere of fixed stars. One of the basic indications of ancient precessional thinking is the appearance of specific numbers in a cultureʼs mythology. The quintessential precessional number is 72: the number of years required for the Earth to precess through one degree of the 360 circle. Ancient Priest-Astronomers extrapolate many iterations from the number 72; by halving it to 36, then adding 36 to arrive at 108. These three initial permutations are first among thousands of mathematical calculations applied to this critical number. As an astronomical metalanguage, these ideas have found their way into the very fabric of cultures; embedded in buildings, myths, and religions. Focusing solely on the first three precessional numbers, I select my own artistic unit of measure, the 1/4” square, and utilize it as a counting device. In this artwork, three continuous 1/4” squares equal the cardinal number 3. By placing the “number” 3 next to the “number” 6, I create the “number” 36. Next, the 3 unites with the 6 (via needle and thread) furthering the effort to merge them into a single entity. Applying the same logic to the numbers 72 and 108, I organize the squares in succession and watch the pattern emerge! Like countless mathematicians before me, The Triumvirate allows a platform from which to observe the interaction of precessional numbers and gain a deeper understanding of their potential.

Houses spread out on the arid hillside in Virginia City, the former Western boomtown in the state of Nevada. Pictures taken during our Southwestern roadtrip in June 2008.

 

Elszórtan elhelyezkedő épületek a száraz hegyoldalban Virginia City-ben, Nevada valaha híres vadnyugati kisvárosában, USA. 2008. júniusában látogattunk el ide délnyugati autós körutazásunk alkalmával.

Strange sculptures made of rotting metal parts and wrecks in the Comstock Lode, a lode of silver ore located under the eastern slope of Mount Davidson, a peak in the Virginia Range in Nevada. Pictures taken during our Southwestern roadtrip in June 2008.

 

Érdekes művészeti alkotások az elhagyott ezüstbányák körül a Comstock Lode nevű völgyben Nevadában, USA - a 19. században rengeteg ezüstöt bányásztak itt, majd a 20. század elején elhagyták a kimerült területet, de az épületek romjai sokfelé láthatóak a Virginia City-be vezető országút mentén. 2008. júniusában jártunk itt délnyugati autós körutazásunk alkalmával.
