The Radio City Music Hall really is a stunning place and can be found in the heart of New York City. Its interior art deco style decoration and styling makes you feels as if you have ventured back in time to the olden days. ..... Super Art Deco

Chicago Central #1719 shows off the new corporate color scheme in this May 1988 photo. I had caught it coming east the day before, and this was westbound train #11 the following day. This is at the famous Mile Post 22 location at S. Addison, IL The weeds in the foreground are now taller than the locomotive, and the siding is gone. Getting back in the car after this shot, the radio just happened to be playing the INXS song "New Sensation". Indeed it was.
Friday Night I was at the Radio Telescope in Effelsberg,
With a diameter of 100 meters, the Effelsberg Radio Telescope is one of the largest fully mobile Radio Telescopes on Earth.
First time with my Sonny A7 II and the Sony SEL-28F20 and the Sony SEL-075UWC ultra wide angle converter.
I hope you like it anyway .....

Gebouw A (zendgebouw) (1920-1922)
Architect: Julius Luthmann (1890-1973)
Rijksmonument 46517
Gebouw A is het hoofdgebouw van het zenderpark Radio Kootwijk bij het dorp Radio Kootwijk. Het geheel uit beton opgetrokken gebouw is een rijksmonument.
De architect, Julius Luthmann, baseerde het ontwerp vooral op het Großfunkstation van Telefunken bij Nauen, waaraan hij een aantal bezoeken bracht. Daarnaast liet hij zich inspireren door het beeld van een sfinx. De vorm van dit mythische wezen is erin te herkennen, met name vanuit de lucht. De bekendste bijnaam van het gebouw is 'de Kathedraal'; meermaals is een vergelijking gemaakt met de Grote Kerk van Veere.
Het gebouw in art-deco-stijl, met sculpturen van beeldhouwer Hendrik van den Eijnde, is een mengvorm van de Berlijnse en de Amsterdamse School met Scandinavische invloeden (Luthmann was onder meer sterk beïnvloed door de Finse architect Eliel Saarinen). Gebouw A spreekt tot de verbeelding van artiesten, kunstenaars en theatergezelschappen. Sinds 2005 is Staatsbosbeheer de eigenaar van het gebouw onder de merknaam 'Hier Radio Kootwijk' en wordt het verhuurd als evenementen- en vergaderlocatie. (Wikipedia)
Radio transmission station Radio Kootwijk.
At the start of the twentieth century, the Netherlands was a trading nation with extensive overseas territories. Its interests were served by a quick connection to the colonies, especially the Dutch East Indies. Direct communication took place by way of electric telegrams, which required cable connections. Prior to this, the Netherlands was dependent on England and Germany. When the First World War broke out the disadvantages of this dependence increased. In 1918, the government decided to realise their own international communication network, independent of the neighbouring countries. After much political debate it was decided to build a long wave transmission station enabling permanent contact with the Dutch East Indies using radio telegraphs.
To establish the radio transmitting station they looked for an uninhabited, remote terrain so there would be minimum interference to the transmission traffic from the environment. The 450 hectare terrain was bought by the Dutch Ministry of Transport, Public Works and Water Management from the Dutch National Forestry Commission.
The exceptional and unique result of the main building, called Building A, is derived from the interplay between necessity and the sources of inspiration. The building could, for example, not be built in wood because of the fire hazard of overheating due to radiation from the transmitters. Thus they chose concrete, which was a little known building material at the time. The building’s design was inspired by the transmission station in Naun Germany, a design by Herman Muthesius.
Architect Julius Maria Luthmann (1890-1973) worked for the Dutch Government Building Agency. Luthmanns' interest in Egyptian architecture explains the building’s appearance as a sort of sphinx. As well as characteristics typical of German Expressionism, the building had unmistakable elements of the Amsterdam School style. In this popular building style from the twenties, various artists often collaborated in decorating the buildings. Above the entrance door you can see a relief depicting a mask with an open mouth through which radio waves exit, flanked by two female figures listening, a European and an Eastern women, symbolising the connection between the East and West. The rear is adorned by a large arched window topped with an eagle.The eagle symbolises the freedom of the radio waves in the air, the flight of sound. Both reliefs are designs by Hendrik van den Eijnde, sculptor, furniture designer, graphic artist and illustrator.

The Radio Tower is a transmission tower in Gliwice, Poland, erected in 1934. The tower is 111 m tall, with a wooden framework of impregnated siberian larch linked by brass connectors. It was nicknamed "the Silesian Eiffel Tower" by the local population. It is the highest wooden radio tower in the world.
I got this old school valve radio with a silky sound. I love the sound of a valve equipment, It rocks!:)
I think it's a dream of every guitarist to have a valve amp but it's to expensive :)

Thought I'd take a break from Dungeness and upload one from a last minute trip in December to the Tate Modern. There was an exhibition of art made from old technology, and this robot made from old radios caught my eye. I can't remember who the piece is by, so if anyone does know please leave a comment telling me!
