Sponsored by Power Brake Service - Changing the perception of brakes from pads and rotors to rocket science since 1950. Performance Hydro-Boost™ & AIRMASTER™ Brake Systems www.powerbrakeservice.net
About Power Brake Service:
We build and Rebuild endless varieties of new and classic brakes for every type of vehicle and trailer. The company was started by George Sweeting in 1950 who worked for the railroads and Lockhead, it is now run by his son Bob Sweeting who learned about modifying cars while drag racing in the 60's, and Bob's son Matt Sweeting (who grew up in all of this) is taking over more and more responsibilities. We were a Warehouse Distributor for Bendix for 20 years until they sold they sold their Power Brake Division to Bosch, which is when we became a special modification contractor with Bosch for their power brakes - which come on most new American vehicles. Our ability to design brake systems, rather than just replace rotors and pads, has taken us to amazing places and we have worked on amazing projects. We have:
Hydro-Boost Conversions
Vacuum Brake - Conversions, Upgrades, and Modifications
Wilwood and Brembo Disc Brake Kits
Master Cylinders
Stainless Braided Hoses
Classic Car / Muscle Car Stock Brake Restoration and Rebuilding (Corvette, Camaro, Chevelle, Mustang, Ford & GM Truck, Mopar, Rolls Royce)
Light Truck / Medium Truck Hydro-Boost Replacement Parts and Conversions
Medium Truck / Heavy Truck Hydro-Max, Air brake, and Air-hydraulic systems - and Hydro-Max Conversions for the obsolete Delco Hypower
Conversions for the obsolete Buick Grand National, T-bird SC, Land Rover, Jeep and all other electric brake booster / electric powermasters
Modified brakes for Altered Bed Fleet Vehicles
Modified sensitivity for the Handicaped
Disc/Drum and Disc/Disc Proportioning Valves
We have worked on everything from propane powered trams to roller coasters, cranes, parade floats, multi engine street rods, classic european cars, double decker buses, and a Freightliner racing truck. Our favorite is working on big engine muscle cars that make too little vacuum and need more stopping power.

Bian Lian (simplified Chinese: 变脸; traditional Chinese: 變臉; pinyin: Biàn Liǎn; literally "Face-Changing") is an ancient Chinese dramatic art that is part of the more general Sichuan opera. Performers wear brightly colored costumes and move to quick, dramatic music. Their faces are vividly colored, for they are wearing masks. However, within a fraction of a second, their masks change — revealing completely new and vibrant visages.
History
The face changing, or "bian lian" in Chinese, is an important intangible cultural aspect of Chinese Sichuan opera - few have been gifted with true talent and skill. They know how to change Sichuan opera masks in magically quick succession. As they flourish their arms and twist their heads, their painted masks change again and again and again.
Face changing began 300 years ago, during the reign of the Qing Dynasty Emperor Qianlong (1736-1795). At the beginning opera masters changed the color of their face during performances by blowing into a bowl of red, black or gold powder. The powder would adhere to their oiled skin quickly. In another method, actors would smear their faces with colored paste concealed in the palms of their hands.
The changing of types of lianpu (Chinese opera facial make-up) and colours reflect a character's mood - red representing anger and black extreme fury - just as in fairy tales.
Face-changing was first used in a story about a hero who stole from the rich to help the poor. When he was caught by feudal officials, he changed his face to puzzle them and escaped as a result.
By the 1920s, opera masters began using layers of masks made of oiled paper or dried pig bladder. The masters could peel one after another in the blink of an eye. At present the masters use the full face, painted silk mask. They can be worn in layers, as much as two-dozen thick, and be pulled off one by one.
Recently, Hong Kong pop star Andy Lau learned this secret art from skilled masters by paying them about 3,000,000 yuan (360,000), much to the chagrin of other old experts. Andy Lau only learned how to do the trick, but has not yet mastered it.[citation needed] Although the art is technically forbidden to women, a Malaysian Chinese girl named Candy Chong has recently become a popular performer after learning it from her father.
During the weekend of Oct 6-7, 2007, performers from the Sichuan Opera appeared in Honolulu at the Splendor of China festival held at the Neal Blaisdell Center. There were performances by a master face changer. In later performances it was announced that only recently had women been allowed to learn the techniques and perform them publicly. Three such women performed several times over the course of the event.

川剧-变脸
变脸是运用在川剧艺术中塑造人物的一种特技。是揭示剧中人物内心思想感情的一种浪漫主义手法。
相传“变脸”是古代人类面对凶猛的野兽，为了生存把自己脸部用不同的方式勾画出不同形态，以吓唬入侵的野兽。川剧把“变脸”搬上舞台，用绝妙的技巧使它成为一门独特的艺术。
变脸的手法大体上分为三种： “抹脸”、“吹脸”、“扯”。此外，还有一种“运气”变脸。
“抹脸”是将化妆油彩涂在脸的某一特定部位上，到时用手往脸上一抹，便可变成另外一种脸色。如果要全部变，则油彩涂于额上或眉毛上，如果只变下半部脸，则油彩可涂在脸或鼻子上。如果只需变某一个局部，则油彩只涂要变的位置即可。如《白蛇传》中的许仙，《放裴》中的裴禹，《飞云剑》中的陈仑老鬼等都采用“抹脸”的手法。
“吹脸”只适合于粉末状的化妆品，如金粉、墨粉、银粉等等。有的是在舞台的地面上摆一个很小的盒子，内装粉末，演员到时做一个伏地的舞蹈动作，趁机将脸贴近盒子一吹，粉末扑在脸上，立即变成另一种颜色的脸。必须注意的是：吹时闭眼、闭口、闭气。《活捉子都》中的子都，《治中山》中的乐羊子等人物的变脸，采用的便是“吹脸”的方式。
“扯脸”是比较复杂的一种变脸方法。它是事前将脸谱画在一张一张的绸子上，剪好，每张脸谱上都系一把丝线，再一张一张地贴在脸上。丝线则系在衣服的某一个顺手而又不引人注目的地方(如腰带上之类)。随着剧情的进展，在舞蹈动作的掩护下，一张一张地将它扯下来。如《白蛇传》中的钵童(紫金铙钵)，可以变绿、红、白、黑等七、八张不同的脸。再如《旧正楼》中的贼、《望娘滩》的聂龙等也使用扯脸。 “扯脸”有一定的难度。一是粘脸谱的粘合剂不宜太多，以免到时扯不下来，或者一次把所有的脸谱都扯下来。二是动作要干净利落，假动作要巧妙，能掩观众眼目。
还有一种方式是“运气变脸”。 传说已故川剧名演员彭泗洪，在扮演《空城计》中的诸葛亮时，当琴童报告司马懿大兵退去以后，他能够运用气功而使脸由红变白，再由白转青，意在表现诸葛亮如释重负后的后怕。
总之，变脸在川剧中是很绝的一门技艺，现在已被其它兄弟剧种所借鉴，并且已经流传国外。

This reminds me of something out of Harry Potter.
"This piece invites one to consider the fusion of architecture and musical performance.
A chimney is turned into a wind instrument, suggesting one could play, or perform it.
The cavity of a functional object (chimney) is considered for it’s sound producing qualities."
