The Forest Lawn museum in Glendale, at the peak of a massive cemetery, is my favorite. It's a bungled collection of shit from around the world, mostly gaudy replicas and third-tier art, including a selection of Crown Jewel replicas that must be seen to be believed.
This photo is a replication of the fascinating artwork "AXL II" by László Moholy-Nagy. I created this image on Adobe Photoshop, which proved to be quite challenging and complex but also enjoyable. This art piece is a 2-D graphic which centres around the focal point of a pure black circle. Surrounding this is a series of lines and rectangles that are distorted to create the illusion of perspective. The image appears to be receding as the lines grow closer together in the background. In the centre ground of the piece the artist has overlapped a series of earthy toned rectangles that work harmoniously together. The colour palette of this image is subdued, containing a range of muted browns, greys, yellows and greens, with minor pops of black. This creates a calm atmosphere withing the artwork and the concentration of colour in the middle draws the eye to the centre. There is also a distorted cross in the centre of the image which adds an extra design element to the piece.

This is an older GRC series radio retrans box that copied the groovy Signal Corps unit stencil off of.
I have been on a mission ever since I saw Mike Nash's "Fake It" polyresin shader to mimic it. I just love the way it looks and it has been a tedious, but fun challenge to accomplish. I think I'm really close to replicating it and have learned a lot taking on this challenge. I will still pursue forward and try making it better, but for now I'm pleased with the results. Now I just need to sculpt some more things to show it off.

This appendage which looks like King Kong's second hand Q-Tip looms from the bow of a replica of the C.S.S. DAVID. Nicknamed the " LITTLE DAVID ", it replicates the famous Confederate vessel which revolutionized warfare by attacking the Union vessel, NEW IRONSIDES in Charleston Harbor, October 5, 1863, using a manually delivered torpedo. It could be said that the DAVID really stuck it to the enemy.
This attack came many years before the era of self propelled and gyro guided torpedoes. In the World War II submarine movies, the commander orders, " Fire 1....Fire 2.....Fire 3..." and we see those long tubular fish leave the sub with a big "woosh" and a thousand bubbles. The DAVID had its torpedo fastened to a long staff which was used to ram the explosive charge into the enemy vessel. It did not have the luxury of watching the impact at great distance through a periscope. Once the torpedo exploded, that staff didn't seem so long at all. This technique is akin to strapping a hand grenade on to one end of a long broom stick then trying to sneak up on an armed enemy soldier to blow him up while you are still holding the stick and while he's still quite capable of shooting you. This being attempted while you're wearing snowshoes. Such was the DAVID'S ability to beat a hasty retreat after the attack.
This concept took more daring than genius. It is the antithesis of today's smart bombs with which the enemy is dispatched at great distance by remote control and seen by the folks back home more as a video game than actual warfare. It's a safe bet that the boys aboard C. S. S. DAVID were not watching the attack upon NEW IRONSIDES with detached interest. This was intimate contact with the enemy.
The replica was begun in 1970 by students of the Trident Technical College at North Charleston, SC, in preparation for South Carolina's Tricentennial celebration. In 2004, members of the U.S. Submarine Veterans, Inc., completely refurbished the replica and restored it to the actual vessel's original specifications. The group devoted more than 5,000 man hours to this project. We suspect that there must have been a few woman hours given to this project as well. Funding for this restoration was made possible by proceeds from the annual antique tractor and engine show at the Berkeley Museum.
The site on which it rests is Stoney Landing in Berkeley County, SC, the very place where the original was constructed.
It replicates the cool moist conditions found in tropical mountain regions between 1,000 metres (3,300 ft) and 3,000 metres (9,800 ft) above sea level, found in South-East Asia, Middle- and South America. It features a 42-metre (138 ft) "Cloud Mountain", accessible by an elevator, and visitors will be able to descend the mountain via a circular path where a 35-metre (115 ft) waterfall provides visitors with refreshing cool air.

The famous Replicator avatar of Grendel's Children. I did not use one in its entirety but assembled the elements of several of them around Alpha; since in their original state these avatars diverge too far from the human and would probably fall outside the Uncanny Valley's threshold.
I have replaced the "Drow" skin with the "Forge" skin designed by Vry Offcourse. This is not really a "nude" skin in that it covers the entire body with metal plates... I think this skin does actually bring Alpha closer into the threshold range.
Portland's "Intersection Repair" is community building that can be replicated in other cities. From home in Victoria here's some thoughts on observations and the lessons learned.
Intersection Repair is a grass roots neighbourhood organization that pushed the city administration by taking ownership of residential street intersections where residents had grievances against volume and speed of traffic on their streets. It's a common problem in any city.
Roads have been painted with fantastic murals at numbers of intersections (and care must be taken to limit them to already low volume and low speed routes - arterials or busy collectors are not good candidates for this treatment for a variety of reasons, not the least of which is the durability and cost of paint). Our issues include the type and colour of the paint, noting concerns about standards and traction for cyclists - how many more challenges can we find!
Community sharing services like a book exchange, coffee tables and cob benches sprinkle the corners to invite people out into the boulevards and streets, creating activity in the informal squares or plazas that the painted intersection is a focal point for.
Boulevards are cultivated or run riot with flowers and purposeful native plantings, creating more interest and potential habitat (fruit in particular must be well tended to keep streets and sidewalks clean (for cyclists, pedestrians and people with mobility challenges), and innoculated against rodents, raccoons - at home in Victoria it's the deer too).
Staff in Portland tell me that the projects don't slow traffic and even invite some new drivers into the neighbourhood; looky-loos and people browsing the book exchange. They do nevertheless, my contact admitted, help build community; and speaking to residents on the street, they were certainly proud and protective of what they had achieved.
I can speak a little more freely now as a citizen of Victoria, rather than as a councillor. Drifting back into some of my more traditional roles of advocate and critic, here's some of the ideas I'll bring to the discussion as we move forward on community design in Victoria.
A few locations around our city have the makings of a holistic model of reclaiming the streets, some more permanent and a few unregulated as well.
Some of the thoughts I brought to the discussion go back to my work as an advocate for cycling and walking, and working with community members who first connected with the intersection repair movement in Portland and brought them to Victoria to introduce the concept.
Council sent a boulevard review mandate to parks staff, knowing as we did, that the city's boulevard management system was fragmented and unresponsive to the aspirations of communities. The process is ongoing and certainly garden uses are being contemplated. Homegrown examples have the good, the bad and the problematic (how far do you go when neighbours want to "reclaim" remnant boulevards or greenspaces around an electically designed city? Tthe mayor had some very good cautions - if one neighbour is allowed to expropriate the space for gardens is the other also allowed to use it as a squat for an extra car, a boat or RV?
Campaigns are often short on details and taking on other candidates is risky business. At council, compromise or even consensus is always the best way to move forward and most often that is how it has worked (the resistance of the electorate to organized slates is a frustratingly at odds with a desire to see moderate governance and teamwork on council.
The most problematic voice on council and the new one runs similar risks, is that which is so independent or uncompromising as to block useful, if incremental progress on policies, issues or projects.
Too the issue illustrated, there was only some modest evidence of this in discussions of boulevards, but the broader intersection design issues will certainly have a tendency to strain relations, perhaps more so on the new council, where points of departure may be more sharp.
Community oriented councillors may be chomping at the bit to take on the mundane obstructions of partical engineeering and management of roads and greenspaces. They will find the issues and the challenges are grounded in sound governance rather than a lack of commitment to community engagement and empowerment. They may well have to climb down from some of their campaign rhetoric and need to be challenged, as the last council was, on those disconnects between their promises and practical realiies that turn them into defenders of their new status quo.
One particular irony will need to be supported in the evolution of the city's boulevard review. The review should carry on, and will of its own momentum, and hopefully too some community and council interest.
The last council included a voice of undue haste in advancing the food production potential of boulevards to the point of dismissing the labour and revenue implications of weaning the city off of $600,000 in taxed boulevards revenue and numbers of good city jobs.
My first reaction (and I'll defend my record and values ad infinitum I guess), was to ensure consideration of the labour implications of cuts to the program, not to mention the revenue implications, of turning over boulevards to community management. The objective may be sound, but rushing change is often not the best approach, and I was taken aback by the councillor's lack of interest in the jobs at risk.
Nobody was paying much attention to the candidate's record on labour issues during council's tenure, other than a few high profile issue campaigns, and to my frustration, (and constrained to the impotence of self-serving personal criticism), the candidate nevertheless earned the endorsement of labour and the misguided, in my opinion, support of many in our politically progressive community.
It will be useful to challenge the new council, and keep watch on how they perform on this and many other issues. Labour still has good strong voices on council, though they were less enthused with our record on some issues. New voices may well be less sympathetic and the routine protection of the interests of the city's workforce less certain.
During my tenure and through the course of my camapigns, I have both supported and been supported by labour interests - we do share values. More friciton was evident in waste management service reviews, but at this, through other projects (first arguing for apprenticeships, local hiring and first nations participation in the Johnson St. Bridge project), and of course with the boulevard review, I was careful to insist that labour impacts be considered, measured, and negotiated.
Portland's Intersection Repair is, I hope, the first of many random thoughts I'll put out into the public realm as I try and retool my career, picking up a few threads in cycling and walking again, but so many other issues too.
Here's where that may take you, at least from this picture, around my Victoria.

"[The complex] was constructed on the site of the former village of Khatyn, razed to the ground in the spring of '43 and its inhabitants butchered, ... [a] tragedy replicated many times over on Soviet territory. It's said that the inhabitants of 618 Belarusian villages were burned alive [most often rounded up into a barn or a home, locked in...] during the occupation in SS punishment operations against partisan groups. Of these, 185 were never rebuilt and have simply vanished."
- "Every 4th Belarusian died in the war: 2.2 million people, including the 380,000 deported to Germany as slave labourers, never to return. A staggering 209 cities and townships and 9,200 villages were destroyed. So catastrophic was the impact on the population that it wouldn't recover to its pre-war total until 1971. Every visitor to Belarus is struck by the large number of war memorials and the extent to which the conflict continues to dominate the national psyche. [A visit to Khatyn helps to put this in perspective.] ... So it's to the memory of all of those communities that the complex at Khatyn is dedicated." (Bradt) The fighting in western Europe in WWII was really a sideshow to Hitler's "War of Annihilation" of the Slavs (his original name for it) here in the east.
- This here is "a cemetery for the other villages that were burned to the ground and are now lost, the symbolic graves bearing an urn containing soil from each one." (Bradt)

- The brutal, brilliant but almost unbearable Soviet film 'Come and See' has scenes set in Belarus of the mass killings of the locals in barns, etc. by the Nazis. It was directed in 1985 by Elem Klimov, a survivor of Stalingrad, and I don't know of another film that comes as close to doing justice to the hell that was the Eastern front, or to the hell that is war. Klimov referred to his film as "a plea for peace". www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHqtBZVUsxo
