Leaving the central car park on the University of York campus with an open day shuttle service, YWH 693 is a rare Volvo B10M-SE VanHool T9 Alizée - formerly Y949 YAV, the engine on an SE is set further back than on a standard B10M and this can be told by the position of the side engine vents on the nearside.
I had been trying to work out the original ID of this coach for a while, but had a brainwave whilst looking through my photos from today and comparing with an older photo or two.
This project is part of the Ars Electronica Garden Belgrade. I sit and worry about her is a musical improvisation experiment exploring the endless worry of a mother for her daughter. Four mothers are subjected to live brainwave analysis, measuring in real time their stress reactions to audio content played by the artist during the performance, offering a sound diagram composed in advance as a framework for the improvised composition. The project was completed through a research residency at University of Belgrade as part of the AI Lab project.

In 1905 experts discovered that parts of Winchester Cathedral were under serious threat of collapse. The causes of the problems went back to when the Cathedral was expanded using beech logs as foundations in the 13th Century. These proved to be inadequate and over hundreds of years the walls began leaning outwards and rotating.
Civil engineers proposed solution was to remove these old beech logs and pump in concrete to firm up the foundations, by tunnelling down to a layer of gravel under the Cathedral walls. The only snag was that the cathedral was built on a high water table, which meant the trenches quickly filled with water, meaning it would have taken years to underpin the whole cathedral, whilst pumping solid material from under the walls could have undermined them further still.
They then had a brainwave to use a diver to descend into the murky water under the cathedral to temporarily shore up the walls by putting concrete underneath them. So, 235 pits were dug out along the southern and eastern sides of the building, each about six metres deep. Shoring up the foundations took a massive effort by the diver William Walker. He worked tirelessly and alone from 1906 until 1911 supporting the cathedral using more than 25,000 bags of concrete, 115,000 concrete blocks and 900,000 bricks, working in almost complete darkness in 13 feet of murky, sediment-filled water.
After Walker finished his work, the groundwater could be safely pumped out and the concrete he had put into place was able to bear the foundation walls. Bricklayers were then able to restore the damaged walls, thus saving the cathedral from collapse.
William Walker has become a hero in Winchester folklore. There are several statues of him in and around the City, including the bust photograhed above, which is situated towards the rear of the Catherdral. Each St Swithin's day prayers of thanksgiving are offered for the work of William Walker along with Francis Fox and Thomas Jackson the civil engineers.
William Walker was awarded the MVO (Member of the Royal Victorian Order) by King George V, who said that he had "saved Winchester Cathedral with his own two hands".
He died in 1918, aged 49, a victim of the great Spanish flu epidemic and is buried in Beckenham Cemetery, London.

A performance about brainwave interference, using flickering light, inspired by Brion Gysin's dreamachine.
Art Science (KABK) - The Holographic Brain
Festival Key of Life 2010, Leiden
“We must storm the citadels of enlightenment. The means are at hand,” William S. Burroughs wrote to his best friend Brion Gysin. The means, he was referring to, was the invention of the dreamachine.
A rotating cyllinder lamp-like device, which produced a stroboscopic light. You would see beautiful patterns, shapes and colours, while looking at this device with your eyes closed. Even full hallucinations have been reported.
The trippy experience provided by the dreamachine fascinated the two beat-generation artists immensly, as well as a wide range of other artists and performers, mainly in psychedelic circles.
The effect produced by the dreamachine, however was not something new. In fact it has fascinated people since the begin of time. Flickering lights and repeated sounds have always been important for spiritual rituals, to induce a trance like state. Shamans, prophets and ordinary people used the effect as an aid for meditation and expanding their conciousness..
The first time this happened, according to one theory, was when a shaman stood under a tree, when a flickering shadow fell on him, created by the leaves slowly moving the wind. When he looked up and closed his eyes the flickering of the shadows gave him a visionary and spiritual experience. This could be the reason why trees take a really important place in all religions worldwide.
There are also stories about prophets, Nostradamus for example, waving their hands in front of their closed eyes, while looking at the sun. This would give them the ability to vision the future.
The first scientist to report it was the great Jan Purkinje, 200 years ago, when he was still a child. He found out that, by looking at the sun with his eyes closed, and waving his hands in front of his eyes, ‘beautiful figures’ would appear, which gradually became more intricate.
It doesn’t really matter what method you use, be it a device, your hands or a natural source, in the end the effect stays the same. The only difference is that modern day devices give us more control over the flicker and intensity. That’s why the dreamachine was such a revolutionary device, as it made it a lot easier to experience the effect.
Brion Gysin and scientist Ian Sommerville created the dreamachine after reading William Grey Walter's book, "The Living Brain". Walter, a neurophysiologist, was a pioneer in research of brainwave activity. In this book he describes his experiments with stroboscopic light. He found that flicker-induced hallucinatory experiences of his test subjects seemed to be as broad and dynamic as anything experienced in the medical case histories. As suggested by himself, this effect is caused not by properties of the light itself, or by the eye, but are a product of the brain.
One theory is that the flickering is interfering with the brain’s visual cortex, attempting to deal with intermittent signal. It’s hard not to wonder if the patterns you see perhaps offer a glimpse of our own brain activity, something beyond our own senses.
In my performance I also make use of the flicker effect, but I have more control over it. In my performance, the audience wears white plastic masks, this way they look into a ganzfeld, a totally white field during the performance. In my set up, I use beamers, projecting light on the audience’s masks, completely immersing them in the light and colors of the projection.
I play an 8 minute live composition, based on the varying effects of different frequencies of flicker, colour, binaural beats and sound.
During the performance every spectator will see something different, varying patterns and colours, created within their own brains.
I hope my performance is another little step, in the long history of flicker, but above all, I hope to give the audience the opportunity to experience this amazing effect for themselves.

Unfortunately Cancer touches most of us at some point so I wanted to make a cake for Marie Curie Cancer Care. I visited their website for inspiration and found out that they were holding a nationwide Swimathon this weekend.
I had a cake brainwave. I love the old Esther Williams films so with the help of Renshaw Napier a national Sugar Company and Jane Asher.com who donated all the icing, and tools I designed and made this cake.
Marie Curie were so thrilled with the cake that they asked me to take it to the launch of Swimathon 2011 which was held at London Fields Lido in Hackney last Wednesday. The Cake will now be auctioned at the Leeds Swimathon which is being held next weekend at Leeds Aquatic Centre.
Another low step count day, but this time because of two visits to the cinema!
I finally saw Frozen, over eight months after it's release date!
Whilst I was watching Guardians of the Galaxy Sue had the brainwave of procuring the necessary for a fabulous afternoon tea to celebrate the traditional August Bank Holiday weather. :)
This swiss roll, a gift from young Beki, topped out the cake tiers. :)

The missing foreigners.
I had already noticed the lack of arriving foreigners at Kansai International Airport. And so far throughout my stay, I have seen very few Europeans / Americans / Australians. Those few with whom I talked, were permanent residents of Japan.
Many of them or their friends had been given a hard time by their families abroad, had been urged to fly from Japan and return to their safe roots. Take their children out of school, leave their husbands behind, and get out of Japan. Or simply get out of Japan and start a new life elsewhere. A friend of mine, originally from Spain, with a highly responsible position caring for others in Tokyo, was urged to move to Canada... Some had given in to this pressure, others had not, and some vocally praised their families for having stood by them as they decided to stay.
Japan is a huge country -- the areas directly affected by the tsunami and the radiation emergency, are only a small part of the territory. In the rest of the country, life is close to normal.
Golden Week has arrived, and we have been wondering how it would turn out this year. Together with the festival of Obon in August, this is the holiday season in Japan, a week in which almost every day is a public holiday and all of Japan seems to take to the roads, the rails and the air for a break. Transport has to be booked early, and accommodation becomes impossible to find.
I had decided to use Golden Week to travel around a bit myself, thinking that the current situation would make many Japanese hesitate about holiday plans and that I would therefore have a chance to book a seat on the trains and find myself accommodation. Kyushu seemed a good place to go to -- a pleasant climate, far from the disaster areas and with several towns which I had long wanted to revisit. But I had waited for too long... when I finally went to book my railway tickets, all reserved seats had been sold out. Would I want to risk trying for an unreserved seat? Would I be prepared to stand in the Shinkansen for a few hours if necessary? This was not the best time to go to Kyushu, I felt -- and so, I opted for a stay in Hineno and a first exploration of the coastline to Shirahama in the local trains. A good decision!
But the hotel could only take me for two nights; it was totally booked out for the other two. On the spur of the moment, I decided to travel to Nikko, in Tochigi Prefecture. This beautiful old town is in the mountains, well inside the zone where the earthquake had been severe -- and also inside the zone, extending as far as Tokyo, for which radiation readings are given each day in the newspaper. The same newspaper was just the other day encouraging holidaymakers to travel to the zones close to the areas hit by the crisis, as these are now suffering not just from the effects of the earthquake but also from dearth of tourists.
Nikko seemed a safe choice. A lovely place, with friends to visit, and presumably no problem at all regarding accommodation. So I thought. And indeed, there was no problem getting railway seats for the journey up to Tokyo. Beyond Tokyo, surprisingly, the trains had been booked out. But the stretch of railway I would be taking, was only short, and if necessary I would stand. As it turned out, this was not necessary -- there were still a couple of seats to be had in a non reserved carriage of the train.
The local train up to Nikko ran as usual, not particularly full and no foreigners to be seen. Nikko is one of the star attractions of Japan, and there is always a trickle of foreign tourists on this route. Arriving at the terminus, I realised that the drizzle had developed into a downpour -- and the bus I needed to get to the hotel had just left, with the next one only going after another hour. So, I opted for the one and only taxi waiting by the station. A good decision!
To my astonishment, Nikko was bursting at the seams! The traffic jams were interminable and exceedingly slow, and the crowds of pedestrians thronging the footpaths were walking rather faster than the cars could move. As the rain poured down and we edged forward, I chatted with the taxi driver, who told me that the earthquake had been serious, but had not caused all that much damage. The aftershocks were now over and life was returning to normal. Only problem : no tourists! I looked out at the crowds of cars, people and umbrellas and he must have seen me wondering... All the people here now have just come for the few days of Golden Week. Next week, the town will be deserted again. The foreigners, who are a steady trickle throughout the year, are not coming... and it is they who keep Nikko working outside the week-ends and the major festival seasons.
When we finally made it to the hotel, I was beginning to worry. And rightly too -- as soon as the taxi driver opened the passenger door, a hotel staffer with an umbrella hastened to greet me, then urgently told me that all rooms had been booked out and there was nothing to be had. Just to make sure I had understood, he told the taxi driver too.
I had already asked the driver to hold on and possibly take me elsewhere. Problem was that now, neither he nor I knew where “elsewhere” might be. Having seen what I had seen, the situation looked pretty hopeless. I was about to ask him to take me back to the station through the traffic jams, when he had a brainwave. He picked up his phone, rang a number and handed it to me, saying “Speak in English”. I had not the slightest clue who was on the other end of the line! But I explained that I was in need of accommodation, and they told me they had room available, just come. What a relief!
The place was not even far away. A small hotel, family run, which I had passed many times on previous visits. The taxi driver was truly inspired : this hotel is frequented by foreign tourists, and the staff all speak English. No foreign tourists, empty beds! And so, I now have a lovely room at a very reasonable price for two nights, a perfect solution. The friendly lady who received me in fluent English, told me that she had been sent home for six weeks after the earthquake, and had only restarted work that very day. She beamed with delight.
I am not the only guest, as it turns out. At breakfast, the dining room was well filled. A Western style breakfast, with toast and butter, a boiled egg and a plate of fruit -- and all were Japanese guests, with the sole exception of myself! They too must have realised that this was a place where accommodation could still be found at a time when Nikko is overrun by Japanese visitors...
This Brainwave Amplifier is installed at the Wallenberg Hall at Stanford University. If you stand under it and the machine is activated, your IQ will be enhanced a million fold, and you will achieve superconsciousness, and understand everything there is to understand, and know everything there is to know. You will comprehend the entire universe as a spectacular, single mathematical equation.
Unfortunately, the effect lasts only for a fraction of a second, after which it's gone, and you return back to your normal existence. You will be left with a feeling of having experienced something unbelievably wonderful, but not remembering what it was.
Unfortunately, there is also another side effect: every time you go through this, it drains about 20 IQ points off you, so repeated use can quickly make you very dumb.
I don't think photography or visitors were allowed in this place, but this made for a nice photo, so I took the picture and got out before anyone saw me and called campus security (hey, they might have seized my camera, you know!!!)
OK, OK, that was a yarn. It is actually an audio player/speaker with a sound reflector, so only the person who stands directly under it can hear the sound. Speakers like this are used at museums and exhibitions where a large number of items are on display, with self-playing commentaries.

1) As elephants are gentle and protective with their young they also seem to sense when they are near a diabled individual. Modeled after Dolphin Assisted Therapy elephants are finding their own place in the therapeutic world. An elephant, in South Africa, brought self-confidence to a young girl with anophthalma (born without eyes) while in Thailand elephants are reaching out to autistic children.
2) This specially trained therapy dog lends support to a hospitalized child between visits from his family.
3) Palomino rabbits are a calm breed able to show empathy and caring. These rabbits can be certified to participate in Animal Assisted Therapy. As shown in this photo people find the soft touch of a rabbit very relaxing. Bunnie Therapy is also used, in the classroom, to calm and focus special needs children at story time. This works especially well if the story is about a rabbit.
4) It's been shown that just being in the vicinity of a horse changes our brainwave patterns. Horses have a calming effect which helps stop people becoming fixated on past or negative events - thus giving them a really positive experience. Horse Assisted Therapy has been particularly useful for children with autism, attention deficit disorder (ADD) and bipolar disorders - all of whom may find it difficult to communicate, interact with other people and carry out instructions.
5) Dolphin Assisted Therapy is suggested for use in healing and pain relief as well as increasing attention span, enhancing learning, and increasing motor skills and coordination in children. While dolphin therapy seems to work best with children, it's also a popular therapy for handicapped adults.
6) The dog is, by far, the most popular animal working in Animal Assisted Therapy. Therapy dogs visit with the sick and elderly, sometime simply sitting by the person's side and patiently being petted. Patients may walk therapy dogs, play with them, feed them or groom them. Some therapy dogs are trained to sit quietly. Many therapy dogs have their own disabilities or limitations that serve as inspiration to humans with disabilities.
7) Rehabilation centres sometimes use Parrot Assisted Therapy to assist stroke survivors with communication difficulties. This inovative program partially involves patients practicing their re-learned words speaking them to a feathered, non-judgemental listener.
8) Although dogs have more traditionally been recruited as therapy animals, cats are being used more and more. After all, the advantage of being able to purr, is of huge value. Therapy cats are especially valuable when interacting with Alzheimer patients by stimulating both memory and forgotten emotions.
9) Therapists have observed teens lay down beside therapy pigs in the stalls with their arms draped around them and talking about their days and their struggles. To struggling teens, these relationships seem so easy and uncomplicated. Here is a relationship in which they give and get back, in which they talk and feel heard.
10) Llama Therapy has been used in hospital settings as well as outdoors Llamas bring into play such activities as stroking, feeding, hand walking and hugging.
11) Professionals in th field of Animal Assisted Therapy find that in addition to cats and dogs a number of other animals are valuable healers. Even the little guinea pig can give patients a reason to interact, the offer intimacy, a chance to communicate and a sense of the contnuity of life.
12) Hospice programs represent a very fast growing area of demand for Animal Assisted Therapy.
Athough the photograph is not associated with Vancouver's children's hospice the announcement is genuine.
(April 25, 2010) Canuck Place Children’s Hospice is pleased to announce our newest member of the care team – Poppy! As part of the Canuck Place program, Poppy will fulfill and enhance many roles as a multi-tasking, hard working friend to the children, siblings and parents – accompanying them in the garden and on outings, as part of group counselling sessions or spending quality one-on-one time with them when they need it.

No axis to a Studio during these crazy times, so Mike Masurkevitch came over and we took photos in my backyard at night. Social Distance Studio!
This was 1984 and a caravan we had booked in Rhyl for a second year running to act as a base for our North Wales and Pennine peak moves. There were about 500 caravans on this site all looking the same and we were finding it a bit difficult to locate ours from staggering back after doing the 22.38 from Manchester Vic and consuming a shed load of beer. I had the brainwave of putting a traffic cone on our caravan to identify it as the numbers on the side were miniscule and the site was not well illunminated. Great idea. Or so I thought. Kev McCarthy had other ideas and a few nights later when Trowbridge and I had lingered on behind the others entertaining some local lasses, we made our way back to the caravan homing in on the cone. The door was locked. Strange. We kept on pulling the handle, then knocking on the door until this became frantic banging on the caravan side thinking the other four had dossed out in a stupor. Then some laughter punctuated the night air from an open caravan window in the next row where McCarthy was leaning out guffawing with the others. Yes he'd put the traffic cone on another caravan. What a wag. Thankfully the other caravan was empty although they didn't know that. Could have ended a lot worse.

A few weeks ago we hosted an outreach event in collaboration with UCL Engineering department and the Royal Institution.
We set the children a brief entitled: Design for Disabilities.
Disability is being transformed by engineering: new wheelchairs, hearing aids, better prosthetics and smart bandages are all making the disabled more able to take part in society.
Spectacles are a product designed to aid vision these are now much more of a fashion accessory. Why shouldn’t hearing aids be as fashionable as eyewear?
In June last year the BBC trailed a low-cost brainwave-reading headset to control iplayer. It allowed users to select programes without lifting a finger. They headset uses two sensors; one that rests on the forehead, and another clips to the ears, these measure the brains electrical signals.
A chip in your brain can control a robotic arm.
Oscar Pistorius was one of the first double amputee to win an able-bodied race. During the 2012 Summer Olympics to win a medal in the mens 400m. Did Oscar’s carbon-fibre running blades give him an unfair advantage over other able-bodied competitors? Did this technology, the International Olympics Committee asked, take him beyond normal human limits?
The brief was to design and prototype a product in this market sector.

The brief was to design and prototype a product in this market sector.
A few weeks ago we hosted an outreach event in collaboration with UCL Engineering department and the Royal Institution.
We set the children a brief entitled: Design for Disabilities.
Disability is being transformed by engineering: new wheelchairs, hearing aids, better prosthetics and smart bandages are all making the disabled more able to take part in society.
Spectacles are a product designed to aid vision these are now much more of a fashion accessory. Why shouldn’t hearing aids be as fashionable as eyewear?
In June last year the BBC trailed a low-cost brainwave-reading headset to control iplayer. It allowed users to select programes without lifting a finger. They headset uses two sensors; one that rests on the forehead, and another clips to the ears, these measure the brains electrical signals.
A chip in your brain can control a robotic arm.
Oscar Pistorius was one of the first double amputee to win an able-bodied race. During the 2012 Summer Olympics to win a medal in the mens 400m. Did Oscar’s carbon-fibre running blades give him an unfair advantage over other able-bodied competitors? Did this technology, the International Olympics Committee asked, take him beyond normal human limits?

The pendant visualises EEG attention (red) and meditation (green) data and visualises it on this LED matrix in real time. Using a Mindwave Mobile, Bluetooth dongle and Shrimp microcontroller.
I've built this for use in excruciating social situations such at conferences, networking, bars, etc. I'm interested in extending our emotive state by displaying if we're paying attention to whom we're speaking to or if our thoughts / attention is drifting off to the canapes or our to-do list. It's a mischievous device, read more about it here rainycatz.wordpress.com/2013/05/27/eeg-data-visualising-p...

Like the Konica III, this model's unusual feature was the front-mounted rapid advance lever, seen to the right of the lens here. Two downward strokes of this lever advance the film and cock the shutter.
This is actually a very nice system for left-eyed photographers: With a typical top-mounted rapid wind lever, it's hard to keep your eye to the viewfinder without jabbing yourself in the forehead.
Since one stroke of the IIIA's lever only advances the film by half a standard 35mm frame, Konica had the brainwave to add a special half-frame shooting mode to the later model IIIM. This mode requires inserting a mask into the film gate, and sliding a control above the take-up spindle.
