“On the vexed issue of editions, while everyone seems to agree that work should be signed, dated and numbered by the artist, there is a clear divergence of opinion between those who see editioning as contrary to the nature of the medium, and those who see it as inevitable in the passage of photography into the fine art market.” Dr Daniel Palmer, Australian Art Collector, Issue 21, July-September 2002, 86-8
What are the considerations for artists when editioning paper or screen-based work? What underpins market confidence in editioning practices? This panel of experts from the commercial, education and public gallery sectors will explore the issues surrounding the editioning of photography and video art. Speakers will address principles, practices and problems within the arenas of analogue and digital media drawing upon local and international experience.

The Veterinary School’s Anatomical Theatre of the Humboldt University of Berlin (HU) re-opened its doors to the public on October 15th, 2012. The former auditorium is the oldest academic facility in Berlin and was designed by architect Carl Gotthard Langhans, who also designed the Brandenburg Gate at the same time in 1780/90.
With its tiered seating, the classical structure is reminiscent of an ancient amphitheatre. It owes its present name to its previous use as a research centre to control and combat animal and equine diseases.

One of the natural uses of a very wide and distortion free lens is architecture. This is inside one of our lecture halls. Normally, it would be next to impossible to get the whole room in one frame.
No distortion correction, only minor cropping.

“SR71 – Flying a Secret Mission”
Tuesday 10th September 2013
Speaker: Col. Richard H Graham, USAF (Ret’d) (Middle)
David Whitehead (L) Mike Hawkins (R)
Location: Lecture Room 0, Cambridge University Engineering Department,
The world’s fastest and highest flying aircraft was conceived as early as 1958 by the renowned aircraft engineer, Kelly Johnson. The gigantic leap in technology he and his engineers had to overcome at the Lockheed “Skunk Works” was phenomenal. Built in total secrecy, the first Blackbird flew on April 26, 1962. The Blackbird’s only purpose was to gather highly classified intelligence on hostile countries around the world. Flying at Mach 3+ speeds and cruising at over 85,000 feet, the SR-71 could survey over 100,000 square miles every hour, gathering millions of bits of intelligence. When cruising at over 2,200 mph, with skin friction temperatures reaching 600 degrees F., the SR-71 performed at its very best.
From 1967 to 1990, the SR-71 served seven U.S. Presidents, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), the National Security Agency (NSA), the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), the Pentagon and other government agencies. It provided them with the necessary intelligence to make crucial political and military decisions during the Cold War era.
Col. Graham’s presentation was tailored to the audience and included an entertaining presentation and a short video honouring the legendary Lockheed “Skunk Works” aircraft engineer, Kelly Johnson. This presentation links the world of engineering with aviation and gave the audience a much deeper appreciation of just how far “outside the box” Kelly Johnson had to think.
On Monday 24 January 2011 the fourteenth annual Sir John T. Gilbert Lecture was held at Dublin City Library and Archive, Pearse Street. The Lord Mayor of Dublin, Councillor Gerry Breen, was chairman for the evening. City Librarian, Margaret Hayes, welcomed the capacity audience and introduced the Lord Mayor.
The fourteenth lecture was given by Dr Christopher Fitz-Simon. Dr Fitz-Simon's lecture, 'Mr Kennedy Miller's very capable company of Irish players', was warmly received by the audience.
This lecture will be published by Dublin City Public Libraries before the end of 2011. Councillor Breen formally launched the newly published thirteenth Sir John T. Gilbert Lecture: Brendan Grimes' 'Commodious Temples: Roman Catholic church building in nineteenth-century Dublin'.

Ten Years of Saving Lives – Controlling Cancer in Zambia
Zambia’s first and only cancer treatment hospital that offers radiation therapy opened ten years ago in Lusaka. The IAEA, through its Technical Cooperation Programme, has supported the hospital since planning began in 2002. Radiation medicine is a vital component of cancer control.
Through IAEA support, the hospital is able to serve as a teaching centre for future generations of radiotherapy technicians. Lusaka, Zambia, April 2017
