Spc. Kingkeo Simlamany from USAREUR's 172nd Infantry Brigade Combat Team places landmarks on maps his unit will use during scenarios at Saber Guardian 2013, a U.S. European Command Black Sea regional exercise planned and executed by the Romanian Land Forces and USAREUR. This is the first time Romania, Bulgaria, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Republic of Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine have all come together to train and exercise their battle staff and command post procedures in one location. Serbian and Polish Land Forces are also participating, to enhance their relationships with these Black Sea countries. There are more than 150 training audience members, support staff and contractors supporting the training at the Romanian Land Forces Combat Training Center in Cincu, Romania.

Stage 2 in The Great Round of the Mandala is called Bliss and is all about flow, formless intimations of creation/birth. Lots of water media/abstract play to express this archetypal phase of life.

A drawing by my father dated 30th March 1948 of Selsdon station near Croydon.
Opened In August 1885 as Selsdon Road Junction, which later became Selsdon Road, the station had two platforms on the line to Elmers End and two on the Oxted line. The station was closed completely from January 1917 for a couple of years as an economy measure during World War 1. The Oxted line platforms reopened in May 1919, but the Elmers End platforms remain closed until electrification of that line in 1935. At this stage the station was renamed ‘Selsdon’, although Selsdon itself was two miles away down Selsdon Road. The goods yard was enlarged to five roads resulting in the layout shown on the map. Closure of the Oxted line platforms came in June 1959, not surprising really with the station being just a quarter of a mile from South Croydon. The buildings on all platforms were demolished around 1963 and just two short wooden canopies were provided over the central sections of the Elmers End line platforms. A very small wooden booking hut was provided at the entrance to the station on the Down Elmers End line platform. In 1968 the goods yard was reduced to just two sidings and became a domestic oil terminal. In 1976 the two wooden canopies were demolished and just metal ‘bus shelters’ being provided. Also from 1976 all through London services ceased and Selsdon was served by a Monday to Friday peak time only shuttle service between Elmers End and Sanderstead operated by two car 2-EPB units. In both morning and evening peaks, one train from Elmers End would terminate at Selsdon and start back from the Down platform. Closure to passenger services came in May 1983, with Selsdon having the distinction of being one of the last stations to be entirely lit by gas. Flats were built either side of the Elmers End line platforms and after the oil traffic ceased in 1993 the whole track area was left to ‘Mother nature’. The line is now very heavily overgrown from the junction of the Oxted line northwards to just south of the former road bridge over Coombe Road. North of that road bridge through to Elmers End the line is now part of the Croydon tram network.

The map lets you see which regions are being effected on a larger scale. The app will be the region’s fist interactive mobile in the area of disaster risk management, drawing on data and information from the National Crisis Management Centre —UNDP’s partner in the Disaster and Climate Risk Reduction project for 2011–2013.

These two maps were redrawn from an article published 1997 in the journal Nature, by our colleagues Cesare Cislaghi and Pier Luigi Nimis. Using the example of the famous Veneto region in northern Italy, they depict how lichen diversity and lung cancer mortality in young men are correlated. Not that low lichen diversity causes lung cancer, but both are connected to air pollution caused by particles and gases such as sulphur oxides, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, methane, heavy metals, and free radicals. The principal sources for these pollutants are vehicle traffic, factories, power plants, and waste incinerators. Lichens are extremely sensitive to air pollution and serve as biological indicators, a fact already discovered around 1860.
Since the late 1950s, lichens have been used to "map" air pollution, and very sophisticated protocols were developed for this purpose in North America and Europe. Lichen mapping is a frequent and widespread technique, and the results from these and other studies on pollution and its effects on human health led to the introduction of filters for industrial compounds, the automotive catalyst, and unleaded gasoline. Continued studies demonstrate that measures to reduce air pollution have led to substantial recovery of lichen communities in urban areas. Unfortunately, the situation is still unsatisfactory in developing countries, where massive vehicular traffic using old cars, buses and trucks, and industrial sources maintain high levels of air pollution. Our L-team is involved in several projects performing lichen mapping in urban areas in Guatemala, Costa Rica, Colombia, Bolivia, and Brazil, to help providing data that hopefully lead to better air quality in these regions.

This project was inspired by the work of an incredibly talented community of artists and designers that are using video mapping as a medium to reinterpret and transform banal, expected environments. The work of Pablo Valbuena was a strong influence over our explorations, and we sought to introduce dynamic interactivity to augmented sculpture as our novel addition to this community.
Developed in C++, Openframeworks, and OpenNI, we are using the depth mapping capabilities of the kinect to evaluate the viewer(participant's) hand, and position it as the light source of the physical model. In effect, their hand becomes the sun, lighting or dimming our abstracted cityscape.
