A number of curious silver instruments stood on spindle-legged tables, whirring and emitting little puffs of smoke.

This is a rather ancient copy of this instrument having belonged to the grandfather of a friend of mine. In those days they put rattlesnake rattles inside the instrument. It was thought that the fiddle was the instrument of the devil and the rattlesnake rattles would protect the fiddler. She loaned it to me so I could learn to play.

Ahhh...a table of little hand tools. Whether you're trying to prise a screw from a piece of electronics or the fair share of a restaurant check from a friend, dental tools are a good answer.

I used to play, a long time ago, but not any more. Shame really, as it is such a pretty thing to look at.

About AIRS

The Atmospheric Infrared Sounder, AIRS, in conjunction with the Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit, AMSU, sense emitted infrared and microwave radiation from the Earth to provide a three-dimensional look at Earth's weather and climate. Working in tandem, the two instruments make simultaneous observations all the way down to the Earth's surface, even in the presence of heavy clouds. With more than 2,000 channels sensing different regions of the atmosphere, the system creates a global, 3-dimensional map of atmospheric temperature and humidity, cloud amounts and heights, greenhouse gas concentrations, and many other atmospheric phenomena. The AIRS and AMSU fly onboard NASA's Aqua spacecraft and are managed by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, California, under contract to NASA. JPL is a division of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena.

Ecran du jeu montrant que l'instrument de musique a été correctement associé à un enregistrement sonore écouté auparavant

Système technique utilisé : vidéoprojecteur projetant sur un écran souple interactif l'interface du jeu de découverte pour deux joueurs.

 

Le jeu a pour but de parvenir le plus vite possible à associer les instruments de musique qui apparaissent à leurs propres séquences musicales. Le joueur doit choisir deux vignettes (une pour l'instrument, une pour la séquence sonore) en se souvenant de leurs différentes positions dans une matrice de 20 carrés. Chaque fois qu'un instrument et le son correspondant sont trouvés, les 2 vignettes disparaissent de l'écran.

 

Derrière l'écran, sur le mur, a été placée une batterie de capteurs de proximité qui permettent aux visiteurs d'interagir. Il n'est pas nécessaire de toucher l'écran pour jouer ou entendre les enregistrements, le dispositif réagit dès que la main du visiteur est à environ 5 cm de l'écran.

Cette salle fait partie d'une exposition temporaire présentée dans l'espace Humboldt-Box en préfiguration du Forum-Humboldt qui devrait être construit, dans quelques années, sur les lieux de l'ancien Palais Royal (Schloss) de Berlin (à proximité de la cathédrale).

 

Le Palais royal, partiellement en ruine à l'issue de la dernière guerre, a été détruit en 1950 à l'époque de la RDA pour édifier le Palais de la République (socialiste), aujourd'hui démoli à son tour.

 

Le forum Humboldt, futur "musée du quai Branly" allemand, montrera les collections ethnologiques, aujourd'hui visibles dans les musées de Dahlem, il comprendra également une très grande bibliothèque sur la diversité culturelle, dotée de dispositifs multimédias de consultation et de travail.

 

En raison de l'éloignement des musées de Dahlem du centre de Berlin, ce rapprochement des collections ethnologiques et asiatiques de celles des cinq musées nationaux de l'île des musées sera un atout indéniable pour l'offre culturelle de Berlin.

 

Dans le même temps, le nouveau bâtiment, financé en partie par du mécénat, intègrera de nombreux éléments de l'ancien Palais royal (trois façades baroques sur quatre et la cour de Schlüter seront reconstruites).

This was shot before a live radio broadcast I played on. There is always a lot of "hurry up and wait" in the studio.

Comments most welcome

the organ in Kelvingrove Museum, Glasgow. Still in working order and can be creepy if you are looking at the mummies and Egyptian artifacts when it's being played

365 project. My newish glasses and Nikon D7100 with Nikkor 18-140mm lens. Photographed on an old lawn chair cushion now serving as a cushion on an old dining chair out in my above ground, unplugged man-cave, the boathouse. Lovely warm day, hot in the sun but comfortable in the shade. Georgian Bay moving slightly to mumble against the shore. I suppose my vision is my strongest sense. Now that I am blind in my right eye Seeing is changed. I find from my persnickety balance, that this solid camera and longish, heavy lens can try to unbalance me when I draw it up to my eye. It is my best camera rig and heaviest. I bought before my balance went awry. I am getting better at maintaining balance with it when it enhances my one working eye.

"Juurakko serves a delightful combination of Finnish and Afro-American roots music with vivid storytelling and rakish skiffle spirit. Highly skilled a cappella blues singing in Finnish is combined with exotic instruments like the kantele, the harmonium, the bowed lyre, the cigar box guitar, a coffee mug and a suitcase. The music of Juurakko invites you to a waltz with an old sailor, takes you to an island of unwanted people and brings earthy echoes from the Deep South.

 

Juurakko was selected as the Artist of the Year at the Finnish Ethnogala 2020."
