Taken at Crossness Pumping Station.
Model: Rory.
The Crossness Pumping Station is a former sewage pumping station designed by the Metropolitan Board of Works's chief engineer Sir Joseph Bazalgette and architect Charles Henry Driver at the eastern end of the Southern Outfall Sewer and the Ridgeway path in the London Borough of Bexley. Constructed between 1859 and 1865 by William Webster, as part of Bazalgette's redevelopment of the London sewerage system, it features spectacular ornamental cast ironwork, that Nikolaus Pevsner described as "a masterpiece of engineering – a Victorian cathedral of ironwork".

Speaking of engineering and bulky costumes. "Iron Man" is another interesting challenge. I've read that it's taken the designers of the "real" costume three movies to figure out how to make the armor work without pinching the hell out of the actor.
So the challenge for cosplayers is to make it lightweight, comfortable, practical, and affordable. Like all engineering challenges, it's always a question of "how do we define the goal of this project?" and then giving yourself the freedom to jettison ideas and features that you "want" instead of "need," if necessary.
What good is a rigid costume that you can wear for about 27 minutes before you cry "uncle"? I've seen people in chain-mail suits who looked — what a surprise — like they were carrying 72 pounds of metal all over their bodies. Hardly happy campers and you rarely see them twice on the same day.
This set of Iron Man armor is made of foamcore, it seems, and it looks great. Would it fool you into thinking it's the movie costume? Of course not, but that's not really the goal of cosplay. It hits all of the design points, it's well-executed, and you can look at it without thinking "Oh, that poor, poor man..."
After years of working in this style I have only recently come to realize the heavy influence of the pictorialists. My favorite pictorialist is William Mortensen(WM), but that's likely because I'm a little uncertain as to who was most influential in the movement.
The new art is based on refinements I've made to my process after gaining a better understanding of WM's own process. He worked primarily in B&W, but liked the gum-bichromate processes too. For these, I took the ideas and techniques and moved them into my own color-space. I love the subtly and grace of where this approach leads me.

Photographed whilst engaged in an engineering procession at Woodsmoor with the Wigan Re-Railing train is class 40 locomotive 40150 (D350) the remains of the Woodsmoor footbridge can be seen on the flat wagons which was behind 40181 (D381)
At this time there were only sixteen class 40's remaining in service, and all were switched off in this month on the 22nd January 1985.

The engineering marvel this is and the effort that goes into this just leaves me amazed. These ducts regulate airflow and maintain the temperature inside remarkably cool even while it may be blistering outside.

Engineering Across Continents
Two Years in Madrid and Two Years in St. Louis, Missouri, USA.
Welcome to the Department of Engineering at Saint Louis University in Spain
The department is home to more than 20 faculty members who form an interconnected network of researchers and industry professionals contributing to the creation of new frontiers of modern science and engineering. Our students and faculty have access to world-renowned educational resources and outstanding lab facilities. In keeping with the Jesuit tradition of promoting the development of the whole person, the Engineering programs include the Core Curriculum of Parks College of Engineering, Aviation and Technology. This Core provides a framework for acquiring a broad foundation of knowledge in the Humanities, Natural Sciences and Social Sciences. At the same time, the Core fosters intellectual inquiry, ethical decision making, and effective communication across the disciplines.

Clearly this was in the past a petrol station, although it hasn't been for quite some time. I can't say if the four old Avery Hardoll pumps are original to the site, it seems quite likely but you never know. Business must have suffered here when the A3 around the junction here was re-jigged meaning passing traffic was reduced and led to the garage closing at least for petrol sales, and now it's not a garage at all. Mathwall Engineering though have a strong motoring connection as they produce race car engines, and especially custom old style engines made bespoke for classic and vintage models. Pretty interesting stuff!
As for the old Avery Hardoll pumps, they have been relatively recently repainted to a sort of mock Gulf livery with orange faces and blue sides, they had been all blue in earlier Streetview images. The globes are of course a basic Esso reproduction shape but given the Mathwall logo.

Promotional thing from ICI.
I remember ICI used to be the archetypal Big, Scary Industrial Giant. Haven't heard anything of them for years. Do they even still exist?
The Google Engineering Philosophy
1. All developers work out of a ~single source depot; shared infrastructure!
2. A developer can fix bugs anywhere in the source tree.
3. Building a product takes 3 commands ("get, config, make")
4. Uniform coding style guidelines across company
5. Code reviews mandatory for all checkins
6. Pervasive unit testing, written by developers
7. Unit tests run continuously, email sent on failure
8. Powerful tools, shared company-wide
9. Rapid project cycles; developers change projects often; 20% time
10. Peer-driven review process; flat management structure
11. Transparency into projects, code, process, ideas, etc.
12. Dozens of offices around world => hire best people regardless of location
See my entry on Always Be Coding for more information.
