Future Music Festival, Randwick, Sydney, Australia…

Today Sydney once again enjoyed one of the premiere Music Festivals to hit Australia – the Future Music Festival.

Randwick, in Sydney’s eastern suburbs was blasted by festival goers, and for the most part, the crowd was not disappointed.

The fest which attracted 50,000 fans, had a line-up that ranged from Psy to alt-indie rockers The Stone Roses.

Industry talk as some folks questioned the use of the phrase "future music" for bands who had found fame and success decades ago, including The Stone Roses and The Prodigy, despite both acts being strong drawcards for many fans at the event.

There were plenty of other hot acts on the marquee included Rita Ora, Australian band The Temper Trap and Avicii.

Well done to everyone involved in the success of this years Future Music Festival.

AVICII
ANNOUNCED AS THE EDM HEADLINER AT THIS YEAR’S FUTURE MUSIC FESTIVAL!!

Future Entertainment can now officially confirm that chart-topping Swedish superstar and worldwide phenomenon Avicii has been added to the already monumental line-up for this year’s Future Music Festival in March!

Set to bring his massive production to the headlining spot of the EDM stage at this year’s Future Music Festival, 2x Grammy award nominee Avicii has certainly proved himself as the EDM force to be reckoned with since he exploded on to the scene in 2011. Put quite simply, in the relatively short time since we first heard his name, Avicii has accomplished more than most artists would dream of in an entire lifetime. And, at just 23 years of age, Avicii is just getting started!

Best known for his exquisite production skills, his prolific live performances and a string of international mega-hits including the worldwide phenomenon, ‘Levels’, (which conquered music charts worldwide racking up over 50 million YouTube views, and was declared David Guetta’s "Tune of 2011") Avicii is without a doubt one of the most in demand artists on the planet.
2012 saw the Swede skyrocket. Kicking the year off with the ‘House for Hunger’ tour, Avicii and manager Ash Pournouri donated a staggering million to the organization ‘Feeding America’, by doing a not-for-profit 27-stop tour of the U.S.

The year also saw him headline some of the world’s biggest music festivals including Coachella, Ultra Music (where he was joined on-stage by pop queen Madonna), Lollapalooza, Electric Daisy Carnival, Tomorrowland, Exit Festival, Creamfields, Mysteryland, Austin City Limits. He was also recently ranked as the second-most influential under-30 person in music by Forbes magazine.

Most recently, Avicii has launched the Avicii x You project which will see him collaborate with fans, producers and musicians from all over the world for his next single. All profits from the single will again go to the ‘Feeding America’ charity.

2013 will see this prodigal wiz-kid join the hallowed ranks of the Future Music Festival. The Day Of The Dead-Set Awesome is most certainly upon us and it’s set to be all the more awesome with Avicii onboard!

The unstoppable force that is Avicii will headline the EDM stage at this year’s Future Music Festivals alongside fellow heavyweights Dizee Rascal, Hardwell, Steve Aoki, Madeon + many more.

The Future Music Festival 2013 pinata has officially popped!

It’s the ‘Day Of The Dead-Set Awesome’ and this year Future Music Festival is set to rock your skulls off! We’ve been brewing something special, and full of more mind-blowing music than you can poke a cactus at… Future Music Festival 2013 is going to kick harder than a Tijuana donkey on peyote! Where else would you want to be? Our Casa is your casa muchacho!

With the most innovative and dynamic line-up to date, Future Entertainment is bringing you a curated arena and two super-sized main stages jam-packed with the hottest talent the world has on offer.

The Prodigy will give you the Warriors Dance Arena – an entire arena dedicated to hard-edged, and heavy bass driven music plus some of the world’s most cutting-edge dub-step acts. The stage is set to showcase why this band deserves every sense of credibility and admiration attached to their name. It’s going to be huge! Epic if you will. Joining them in the Warriors Dance Arena will be Boys Noize (Terminator-esque skull show! New album out this Friday), Feed Me Live (Live Teeth Show), FMF 2012 heroes Kill The Noize, Zeds Dead and Borgore. Another very welcome addition to the Warriors Dance Arena is international tastemaker and legendary DJ in his own right, Zane Lowe. This man has quite literally had a hand in the shaping careers of more than one of the artists on this line-up and has truly earned his stripes amongst the best. With each act as illustrious and defining as the next, be prepared… the Warriors are coming.

Fresh from breaking records for the fastest selling rock tour in UK history (220,000 tickets in 68 minutes!) the pioneers of alternative rock The Stone Roses are bringing their Manchester-borne reunion tour to Aussie shores. Joining them on the live front are fellow Brits Bloc Party. Returning to Australia for the first time since the release of their critically acclaimed new album Four they’ll be sending fans into an absolute frenzy as they make their debut Future Music Festival appearance.

In a move unlike any other, International sensation and K-Pop superstar PSY has also been added to the bill. The recent online obsession over his Gangnam Style video has turned the South Korean into a global phenomenon. His single has had in excess of 400 million youtube views and has reached the number 1 spot in 33 countries and counting! Arriving in Australia this Sunday, Psy will perform on X-Factor and share with a captive nation his EX-PSY-TMENT about debuting his live show at Future Music Festival 2013.

Off the back of a triumphant performance at the AFL Grand Final that saw their smash hit album Conditions soar back into a Top 10 position in the ARIA charts, our boys The Temper Trap will be showing the internationals how we hold our own. Adding a little more Oz to the concoction will be indie-rock wunderkinds Gypsy & The Cat – returning with a much anticipated new album mixed by superstar Dave Fridman (The Flaming Lips, MGMT) and a new single ‘Bloom’ which shot straight to number 5 on the world wide hype machine.

Expect things to get a little bonkers with UK powerhouse MC and festival must-have Dizziee Rascal back on the bill. Fellow countrymen DJ Fresh and Rudimental have also had extremely impressive years. With a string of hits and sold out shows to each of their names respectively, these live acts know how to get the party started. Period. Also along for the ride we give you the chart-topping New York pop-rockers Fun. And you better believe it will be!

This season, Future Music Festival has pulled together an array of the finest female talent on the planet. First up, hailing from Harlem, we have the hard-hitting, natural born lyricist Azealia Banks. With a much anticipated new album on the way, this provocative lady of the moment is all set to deliver a hot and heavy set featuring tracks from her hit EP ‘1991’. Next up, Rita ‘This Is How We Do’ Ora will be taking to the stage. With no less than 3 number 1 UK hits under her Alexander Wang belt and a slew of burgeoning international praise, 2013 is all about Rita’s Ora! On the topic of UK sensations, Ellie Goulding will be making her much-awaited Australian festival debut. Rounding off an almost perfect female contingent are the ever-impressive Aussies (and Future Music favourites), Nervo.

If ever there was an EDM all-star line-up, to end all other line-ups, this would undoubtedly be it. FMF 2013 brings you electronic icons Steve Aoki, A-Trak (Live), Madeon and Hardwell. The EDM A-Team has officially landed.

The undisputed heavyweight champion of underground and heralded king of Ibiza, Sven V th will be bringing his Cocoon Heroes concept down under for the first time. Returning for his 5th performance on FMF, V th will head up the strongest techno line-up in Future Music history. We kid you not. Cocoon Heroes will showcase fellow techno-titans Richie Hawtin, Ricardo Villalobos, Seth Troxler and Magda. Featuring full lights and production, Cocoon Heroes will boast all of the elements that make this the best event on the white island each summer, and much, MUCH more!

Trance-a-holics can look forward to riding every bone-tingling breakdown and build-up as we announce Wake Your Mind! Curated by none other than trance visionaries Cosmic Gate the Wake Your Mind stage will feature vocalist Emma Hewitt, W&W, tyDi, Super 8 & Tab and Ben Gold.

Last, but by no means least Australia’s very own The Stafford Brothers, Timmy Trumpet, Tenzin and Bombs Away will once again join the hallowed ranks. Hold on to your margaritas – these Aussies are LOCO!! Party time? Excellente.

What is now a rite of passage for all music lovers, Future Music Festival is back! The Day Of The Dead-Set Awesome is upon us. This is the festivale de m sica futuro…Taco Taco muchachos!

Tokyo J – Akihabra – Akihabara Electric Town 05

Image by Daniel Mennerich
Akihabara is a district in the Chiyoda ward of Tokyo, Japan. The name Akihabara is a shortening of Akibagahara (autumn leaf field), which in the end comes from Akiba, named right after a fire-controlling deity for a firefighting shrine constructed right after the location was destroyed by a fire in 1869.

Akihabara gained the nickname Akihabara Electric Town (Akihabara Denki Gai) shortly right after Planet War II for getting a key shopping center for household electronic goods and the post-war black marketplace.

Nowadays, Akihabara is regarded as by a lot of to be an otaku cultural center and a shopping district for video games, anime, manga, and personal computer goods. Icons from well-liked anime and manga are displayed prominently on the shops in the area, and several maid cafés are identified all through the district.

The location that is now Akihabara was as soon as near a city gate of Edo and served as a passage among the city and northwestern Japan. This created the area a property to a lot of craftsmen and tradesmen, as well as some low class samurai. 1 of Tokyo’s frequent fires destroyed the location in 1869, and the people decided to replace the buildings of the area with a shrine named Chinkasha, meaning fire extinguisher shrine, in an try to stop the spread of future fires. The locals nicknamed the shrine Akiba soon after a deity that could handle fire, and the region about it became identified as Akibagahara and later Akihabara.

In 1890, the Akihabara Station became a significant freight transit point, which allowed a vegetable and fruit industry to spring up in the district. Then, in the 1920s, the station saw a large volume of passengers following opening for public transport, and after Globe War II, the black market place thrived in the absence of a robust government. This disconnection of Akihabara from government authority has permitted the district to grow as a marketplace city and offered rise to an outstanding atmosphere for entrepreneurship. In the 1930s, this climate turned Akihabara into a future-oriented market place region specializing in household electronics, such as washing machines, refrigerators, televisions, and stereos, earning Akihabara the nickname &quotElectric Town&quot.

As household electronics began to drop their futuristic appeal in about the 1980s, the shops of Akihabara shifted their concentrate to house computers at a time when they were only utilized by specialists and hobbyists. This new specialization brought in a new sort of consumer, personal computer nerds or otaku.

The industry in Akihabara naturally latched onto their new client base that was focused on anime, manga, and video games. The connection among Akihabara and otaku has survived and grown to the point that the area is now identified worldwide as a center for otaku culture, and most otaku even contemplate Akihabara to be a sacred location.

Paradise View of the Demon Realms:
Unenlightened Bardo Realms ~

In the Demon Realms the denizens think nothing of killing and devouring their fellow beings, even when they realize that their victims are self-conscious and really feel pain just as the demons do. Demons eat flesh not because they have to, but since they pick to. They train their young to wish the burned flesh of other individuals, so that it seems a all-natural appropriate for them to needlessly slaughter other beings at their whim.

Demons even contact the enslavement of terrified beings (whose unavoidable destinies are proclaimed to be absolutely nothing much more meaningful than to further fatten the demons’ stomachs) a noble ‘pastoral enterprise’, as they destroy Paradise to fatten their herds and turn fertile soil-wealthy lands full of diverse life-types into the barren wastelands of the Demon Realms. The rest of their food is tainted, half-rotted and often completely contrived from waste merchandise and toxic chemical compounds.

In the Demon Realms there is no clean fresh water. The demons add poisons to it just before they drink it and swim in chemical-laden water laced with their own urine and excrement.

In the Demon Realms there is neither silence nor peace. Noise envelopes the demonic hordes in a numbing cocoon and their time is crammed complete with needless anxiety and pointless – but destructive – activity. They never have adequate time to genuinely reflect on their existence or have a likelihood of changing it. Their overloaded senses grow to be dulled and jaded and the demons crave ever a lot more empty diversions and entertainments with ever-escalating levels of death, violence and other vividly distracting passions.

In the Demon Realms there is no object or living thing that hasn’t been placed there by demons. They all live inside the concretised manifestations of their demonic minds, in no way seeing something produced and planted by Nature. Every little thing they see, hear, smell, taste or touch has been erected by other demons.

In the Demon Realms they breathe smoke, poisons and fumes in an all-pervasive translucent cloud of sulfurous brimstone. They heat and chill the air with infernal combustion machines that add toxic chemical compounds and poisonous vapours to their atmospheres, and virtually everything is powered by machinery that poisons their air all the much more. The far more cunning and thoughtless demons blow hot, dead air and smoke out of their edifices, into the lungs of those who cannot afford to do the identical to them.

The demons see the globe as their oyster – not as a priceless pearl – and say it is their correct to destroy the beauty and bounty of nature – which they get in touch with ‘resources’. They expand the Demon Realms into the shrinking sanctuaries of Paradise with their endless rapacious activity. They think that may tends to make appropriate and that those with chunks of glittering metal torn from the Earth’s bosom deserve to rule and devour whatever they will. They believe that the demon with the greatest gun has the inherent right to all energy. They believe that God is on all their sides when they slaughter each other, and they are all correct in that belief.

In the Demon Realms the chief demons make continual war on every single other to preserve their demonic forces nicely entrained to be capable to wage more war, terror and death. The tribal demons fight for illusory symbols like flags and totems, to give them much more energy to release their hidden fears, bigotries and hatreds on absolutely everyone else. The greatest killers are praised as heroes.

In the Demon Realms no-one can trade or participate in life without employing imaginary symbols of Energy inscribed on paper, metal or congealed oil. Their emperor has no garments but it is mandatory to praise his glittering raiment.

In the Demon Realms almost everything not forbidden soon becomes compulsory.

In the Demon Realms everybody is ill and delusional, out of touch with Nature and their personal accurate natures. Most demons inexorably kill themselves with their daily suicidal behaviour and rarely live much more than a single century.

In the Demon Realms there are a handful of angels working to save Paradise and aid elevate all beings with their accurate possible.

They require YOU. Stick to the rainbow – along the Green middle path which leads by way of its centre!

These days a silver perch leaping from the stream, over and more than, following a dragonfly as it leapt from its element in pursuit of identified unknowns. A grey falcon swoops on the flock of guinea fowl and the peacocks ruffle their feathers. Black cockatoos greet the coming storm with loud articulate screeches that carry sentences of meaning with every second’s squawk.

We move timber and stone, soil and sand, and an old cast iron bathtub. A logger comes to see if there are and ‘cheap’ trees ‘for sale’. A handful of much more trees go into the ground when he’s gone, as Emerald catbirds and Wompoo pigeons celebrate his departure.

“See that mirror surface?” I say to Dave as we rest for a couple of minutes beneath the reforming rainforest canopy. The deep pool has stilled as the storm bird starts its escalating cry. “See that meniscus forming on the surface like a lens?”

“Sure,” Dave replies. “Just like a slightly curved mirror.”

“The water’s literally bulging upward toward the waters above – it’s an electrical phenomenon if you like, as the water strains to make make contact with with itself. It’s a relatively certain sign that we’re about to have a thunderstorm…” A few ripples begin to type on the nevertheless surface. “Are they falling up, do you suppose?”

The lightning arrives thirty seconds later.

Paradise is a forest – just beyond the open field of your vision in the Demon Realms – and all demons are forgetful angels.

This shot was taken almost a year ago on one of the two streams that type Coldwater Creek. Pictured in this photo are the ruins of an old dam that was 1 of a couple of place in place for a fish hatchery. These days, the fish hatchery is now on the other stream that forms the primary flow of Coldwater Creek.

About the Photo
*Camera: Canon EOS Digital Rebel XS *Lens: EF-S 18-55mm ƒ/3.five-five.six IS *Shutter Speed: two. Sec. *Aperture Value: ƒ/11. *ISO: 100 *Focal Length: 18mm (28.8mm Equivalent in 35mm Film)

I shot this on a tripod employing mirror lockup, a polarizing filter, and a two Sec. selftimer. I was standing in the water whilst taking these shots and the creek has a quite correct name of &quotColdwater Creek&quot, just upstream from this spot is a single far more little old wooden dam and all the water just seeps out of the ground.

I opened the RAW file in ACR and did my common tone curve adjustments and slider vibrance, clarity, and blacks increases. I adjusted the colours individually to get them the way I wanted, with a lot of green contrasting on a mix of light red and orange.

I opened the RAW file in CS4 saved as a 16 bit TIFF and preceded to edit it. I utilized the clone stamp and healing tools to meticulously clean the scene of any slightly annoying object. I added the light beams in the background by using the clouds filter, utilizing motion blur on them and changing the blend mode to luminousity and lowering the opacity to about 50%. I also added a tiny bit of mist to go above the stream. Close to the end I saved the 16 bit TIFF file, converted to sRGB colourspace, and saved as a JPEG to upload to the web.

Dortmund – Zeche Zollern II IV 11

Image by Daniel Mennerich
The Zeche Zollern II/IV (translated: Zollern II/IV Colliery) is located in the northwestern suburb of Bövinghausen of Dortmund, Germany. The Gelsenkirchener Bergwerks-AG projected Zollern in 1898 as a model colliery.

Ground up building started in 1898 on a new internet site. Most of the buildings of the colliery had been constructed in strong brickwork by the architect Paul Knobbe and were completed in 1904 with the central engine residence, in which the most up-to-date generators and machinery utilized in the colliery were housed. The architecture and state-of-the-art technology support the transition of Gothic-revival to Art Nouveau and the industrialization of the early 1900s.

Due to deadline pressure, the central engine house was built in iron framework building with infilling of red brickwork, planned and executed by the Gutehoffnungshütte. The Art Nouveau styled major entrance was developed by the Berlin architect Bruno Möhring, it shows a lead glazing of blue, green and-glass. Counterpart of the main entrance is the big manage board of polished marble in brass mounting, with a brass clock hanging from above.

Other buildings on the website contain administration bureaus, blacksmith’s shop and carpenter’s shop, 1st-aid and fire station with steady, pithead baths, tools shop and the central gateway.

In 1969, 3 years following it closed down, the colliery was recognized as Germany’s 1st technical developing monument of international significance. Since 1981, it has been the headquarters of the Westphalian Industrial Museum.

The original pit frames had been scrapped just before 1969, two similar constructions from other collieries were reconstructed on this internet site in the 1980s.

The museum is an anchor point on the European Route of Industrial Heritage.

ABOUT THE Operate

Allen Jones, along with David Hockney, Peter Phillips and R. B. Kitaj, belongs to the ‘second generation’ of British Pop. From 1955 to 1960 he studied in London at the Hornsey College of Art, then at the Royal College of Art, and from 1961 to 1963 he taught lithography at the Croydon College of Arts. Allen Jones lived in the United States for a year in 1964.

Like Mel Ramos with his Pinup Girlies (the Berardo Collection has a Virnaburger, from 1965), Jones pushed the stereotypes recognized as ‘masculine’ to the maximum. In this painting, using an ingenious optical illusion, the female figure is lowered to a pair of legs, and wears stiletto heels with exaggerated dimensions.

Jones acquired a certain notoriety for his Chair, Table and Hat Stand series (1969) in which girls are transformed into furnishings. Allen Jones collaborated in the film Maîtresse, made by Barbet Schroeder in 1976. The sculptures in the ‘Korova Milk Bar’ in STANLEY KUBRICK’S FILM A CLOCKWORK ORANGE are primarily based on his perform.

BIOGRAPHY

From Wikipedia, the free of charge encyclopaedia

EARLY LIFE AND EDUCATION

&quotFor my generation any person who wanted to reduce the mustard had to reckon with Abstract Expressionism…. I’ve never wanted to show the struggle involved in the producing of the operate, and to make it part of the painting the way it is with Pollock or de Kooning. That is just not me constitutionally I couldn’t abandon the figure. But I had to find a new way of performing it. Abstract Expressionism had swept almost everything away. You couldn’t go back to representing the figure by way of some moribund visual language.&quot

— Allen Jones in a 2014 interview

Jones was born in the English city of Southampton on 1 September 1937. The son of a Welsh factory worker, he was raised in the west London district of Ealing, and in his youth attended Ealing County Grammar College for Boys.

Jones had an interest in art from an early age. In 1955, he began studying painting and lithography at Hornsey College of Art in London, exactly where he would graduate in 1959. At the time the teaching approach at Hornsey was based on Paul Klee’s Pedagogical Sketchbook from the 1930s. While a student at Hornsey, Jones travelled to Paris and the French area of Provence, and was particularly influenced by the art of Robert Delaunay.

He also attended a Jackson Pollock show at the Whitechapel Gallery in 1958, and according to Jones, &quotfor me it was outdoors any identified frame of reference. The scale, the ambition, the freedom. I felt like suing my teachers for not telling me what was taking place in the globe.&quot He afterwards travelled to see the Musie Fernand Léger in the French commune of Biot, and in 1959 he left Hornsey to begin attending the Royal College of Art.

As 1 of the very first British pop artists, Jones created increasingly unique paintings and prints in the late 1950s and early 1960s, and in distinct enjoyed combining various visual languages to expose the historical constructions underlying them.

According to Jones, about his early ambitions, &quotI wanted to kick more than the traces of what was regarded as acceptable in art. I wanted to locate a new language for representation… to get away from the notion that figurative art was romantic, that it wasn’t difficult.&quot He was element of a unique generation of students at the Royal College, amongst which his fellow students were R. B. Kitaj, Peter Phillips, David Hockney, and Derek Boshier, but was expelled from the Royal College of Art in 1960, at the end of his very first year.

Explained by Mark Hudson in The Telegraph many years later, &quothorrified at the new developments brewing amongst their younger students, the college’s academic old guard decided to make an example of someone. They chose Jones.&quot Dismayed, Jones signed up for a teacher training course and returned to his research at Hornsey College of Art in 1960, graduating the following year.

ART Profession

EARLY TEACHING AND EXHIBITS (1961–63)

In spite of his expulsion from the Royal College, in January 1961 Jones’ operate was included in the Young Contemporaries 1961 exhibit. The annual Royal Society of British Artists exhibition was described in the press as &quotthe exhibition that launched British pop art,&quot Young Contemporaries helped expose England to the art of Jones, David Hockney, R. B. Kitaj, Billy Apple, Derek Boshier, Joe Tilson, Patrick Caulfield, and Peter Blake, all of whom have been variously influenced by American Pop.

Among his works, Jones entered numerous paintings of London buses on shaped canvases, which have been afterwards put on display at the London West End gallery Arthur Tooth &amp Sons. 1 of the gallery’s directors then introduced Jones to the function of American pop artists such as Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein and Claes Oldenburg, which proved inspirational to Jones.

In 1961, he took a job teaching lithography at Croydon College of Art in London, where he would remain until 1963. Around this time, Jones was influenced by the works of writers such as Friedrich Nietzsche, Sigmund Freud, and Carl Jung.

According to Jones, his 1963 painting Hermaphrodite, depicting &quotfused male/female couples as metaphors of the inventive act,&quot draws from each Freud and Nietzsche. In 1963, Jones was awarded the Prix des Jeunes Artistes at the Paris Biennale.

The following year, Jones and other Nouveau réalisme and pop artists such as Peter Phillips and Pauline Boty had been featured in documentaries by Belgian director Jean Antoine, Evelyne Axell’s husband.

TRAVEL IN UNITED STATES AND ABROAD (1964–69)

&quot[In New York City Jones] found a scene dominated by the suggestions of the influential critic Clement Greenberg: that the essence of painting lay in the flatness of the canvas, in hard edges, in the painting as object. Jones wanted to create a new kind of art that conformed to those principles… but which retained the human figure. He discovered the imagery that would allow him to do that in the seedy bookshops of Occasions Square.&quot
— Mark Hudson

Intrigued by the &quottoughness&quot of American pop art, Jones moved to Manhattan in 1964 and took a studio at the Chelsea Hotel. In New York City, Jones recollects finding out to &quotpresent what you were saying as clearly as feasible,&quot and he developed an interest in producing his photos tangible. For the year Jones remained in the city, he &quotdiscovered a rich fund of imagery in sexually motivated well-liked illustration of the 1940s and 1950s.&quot According to Jones, about his art of the time:

Fetishism and the transgressive globe produced photos that I liked due to the fact they were hazardous. They were about private obsessions. They stood outside the accepted canons of artistic expression and they recommended new approaches of depicting the figure that weren’t dressed up for public consumption.&quot

Amongst other projects at the time, Jones &quotworked on a 3-dimensional illusionism with clear erotic components.&quotWhen Jones’ close buddy Peter Phillips came to New York on a Harkness Fellowship in 1964, for two years they spent considerably of their time travelling together throughout the United States.Jones’ style continued to create, and his 1966 painting Excellent Match &quotmade explicit [his] previously subdued eroticism, adopting a precise linear style as a means of emphasizing tactility.&quot

In 1967, Jones’ operate along with the operates of artists such as Piero Gilardi and David Hockney were included in an exhibition for the wedding of Guglielmo Achille Cavellini’s daughter. The following year, when the xartcollection exhibition series was developed in Zürich, Switzerland, Jones and artists such as Max Bill, Getulio Alviani, and Richard Hamilton had been among the initial to be integrated in the company’s &quotmultiples.&quot Until it dissolved a couple of years later, the company’s philosophy was to make contemporary art offered to a large public by industrially creating three-dimensional &quotmultiples,&quot with a number of artists’ work incorporated on every single.

Jones was a guest lecturer at the Hochschule für bildende Künste Hamburg in Germany from 1968 to 1970, and in 1969 was also a visiting professor at the University of South Florida. His 1968 set of prints, Life Class, was amongst his very first functions to incorporate components of sculpture.

Every single PRINT IS Made OF TWO HALVES, THE BOTTOM Getting A REALISTIC PAIR OF WOMEN’S LEGS IN TIGHTS, Whilst THE UPPER HALVES ARE DRAWN IN A 1940S FETISHIST GRAPHIC STYLE REPRESENTING &quotTHE SECRET FACE OF BRITISH MALE Desire IN THE GLOOMY POST-WAR YEARS.&quot About his further experimentation with sculpture, Jones has stated that &quotI spent so a lot time providing my figures that grabbable quality, I thought, why never I make them in 3 dimensions?&quot

&quotWhen I looked at what other avant-garde artists have been undertaking with the figure there was always a kind of prop, some thing that let the viewer off the hook, that told them ‘this is a perform of art’. I wanted to make a figure that was devoid of these props. There was an thought I’d seen in an adult comic strip exactly where a individual was used as a table, and that set off a whole host of resonances.&quot
— Allen Jones

While living in the London neighbourhood of Chelsea in the late 1960s, Jones began functioning in sculpture. His fibreglass sculpture Chair, which was completed in 1969, marked the begin of a series of &quotlife-size images of women as furnishings with fetishist and sado-masochist overtones.&quot

The 1st three sculptures had been each and every sculpted from Jones’ drawings, with Jones overseeing professional sculptor as he produced the figures in clay. The 3 female figures had been then cast in plaster by a company that specialised in producing shop mannequins. Each of the original three figures was created in an edition of six.

EXTERNAL VIDEO

Jones first group of erotic fibreglass sculptures, of a Hatstand, Table and Chair gained international interest when exhibited in 1970. The works were met with robust protests for perceived misogyny, which succeeded in producing Jones a &quotcultural hot potato&quot.

Laura Mulvey writing for Spare Rib magazine suggested the sculptures was inspired by latent castration anxiousness. Almost a decade later, when they have been place on show at the Institute of Contemporary Arts in 1978, they had been attacked with stink bombs.

Eight years later, on International Women’s Day, Chair was damaged by paint stripper whilst exhibited at the Tate.

According to art historian and curator, Marco Livingstone, writing in 2004: &quotMore than 3 decades later, these performs still carry a strong emotive charge, ensnaring each and every viewer’s psychology and sexual outlook regardless of age, gender or expertise.&quot

The serious reaction from the art planet, feminists, and the mainstream press soon after the sculptures’ debut would limit Jones’ exhibition profession in England more than the subsequent several decades. When asked about their effect on his profession, Jones was quoted stating &quotit’s collateral damage. I wanted to offend the canons of accepted worth in art. I discovered the ideal image to do that, and it is an accident of history that these operates coincided with the arrival of militant feminism.&quot

Roman Polanski, Elton John and Gunter Sachs all owned a piece at a single stage, with a single of the sets selling at auction in 2012 for £2.six million. The sculptures have also been referenced in Stanley Kubrick’s 1971 film A Clockwork Orange.

MAÎTRESSE AND TEACHING (1973–1980S

Jones, photographer Brian Duffy, and air brush specialist Philip Castle were commissioned to collaborate on the annual and usually salacious Pirelli calendar in 1973, resulting in a unique edition that Clive James would later jokingly get in touch with &quotthe only Pirelli Calendar that nobody bothered to look at twice&quot.

In 1973, Jones spent time as a guest lecturer at the University of California, Los Angeles, and soon after going to Japan in 1974, the following year he toured Canada. Jones designed Barbet Schroeder’s 1975 film Maîtresse. Starring Bulle Ogier as the skilled dominatrix Ariane and Gérard Depardieu as her obsessed lover, the film provoked controversy in the United Kingdom because of its graphic depictions of sado-masochism.

By the mid 1970s, he was once more focusing on canvas and painting, and among his notable functions at this time had been Santa Monica Shores in 1977. Now at the Tate, the work was painted while he was a guest lecturer at the University of California, Los Angeles in 1977, and later that summer season he was a visiting director of studies in drawing and painting in Alberta, Canada, at the Banff Center College of Fine Arts. Known for only very sometimes taking on commissions, Jones was commissioned to design and style a hoarding for Fogal, a hosiery manufacturer, at Basel station in 1978.

The Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool held a large retrospective exhibition on his function in 1979, and the exhibit later travelled to the Serpentine Gallery in London. Continuing to travel, he was invited by the Berlin University of the Arts to be a guest professor from 1982 to 1983.[three] By that time, he had largely returned to &quota playful stylisation in figure sculptures,&quot which includes The Tango in 1984, a life-size dancing couple produced from steel plate.[four] In 1986, his work was incorporated in the Venice Biennale’s Art e Scienza exhibition, alongside artists such as Brian Eno and Tony Cragg,[citation needed] and that year he was elected as a Royal Academician by the Royal Academy.[17] Opened in 1987, Birch and Conran was the first art gallery in Soho, and their inaugural show featured British Pop artists such as Jones, Sir Peter Blake, Richard Hamilton, and Clive Barker.[citation required] From 1990 to 1999, he served as a trustee at the British Museum, and in 2000 became an Emeritus Trustee.[18]

He has functions held by the Cass Sculpture Foundation. A single of which, the outdoor sculpture Temple from 1998, was a response to the artifice of cultivated landscape… Jones sought to make a sculpture which utilized that artifice to distort scale and distance and to manipulate our perception of space. Jones’s interest derived from eighteenth-century landscape architects, who did this when introducing decorative buildings and follies into their schemes.

Also, with the figure at top of the structure Jones makes use of &quotcolour to introduce the notion of movement in the figure, with the alternate arms of yellow and green in diagonally opposing positions.&quot

Current EXHIBITIONS AND HOLDINGS (2000S)

Sculpture by Jones at Georgsplatz Hanover in Germany.
Jones continued his artistic activity into the 2000s, and amongst other projects he incorporated leatherwork by Whitaker Malem.

In recent years, Jones has increasingly grow to be identified for his huge steel sculptures, a lot of of which are abstract in nature and feature intertwining figures. A number of them have been displayed in an outdoor exhibit in Might 2015 at the Art in the Park occasion held by Lake Zurich. His function is also incorporated in a quantity of public and private art collections Three OF HIS PAINTINGS ARE IN THE COLLECTION OF THE CENTRO DE ARTE MODERNA OF THE GULBENKIAN FOUNDATION IN LISBON, and he has pieces in the Ingram Collection of Contemporary British Art.

In 2007, he was awarded an honorary Doctorate of Arts from Southampton Solent University. He has had solo exhibitions at the Wetterling Teo Gallery in Stockholm and the Serge Sorokko Gallery.

His performs featured in the Pop Art Portraits show at the National Portrait Gallery in London, and had a committed room of watercolours, drawing and paintings at the Tate Britain. In 2008, he was given a dedicated watercolour area at the Royal Academy of Arts. In April 2013, his perform was included in a main exhibition at the National Museum of Wales in Cardiff, titled Pop and Abstract, alongside function by artists like Peter Blake and Bridget Riley. A parody of Jones Chair sculpture was portion of a collection exhibited below the name Allen Jones Remake at the Venus Over Manhattan Gallery in New York in 2013. An example of Jones’ 1969 Chair sculpture (as effectively as more than fifty other functions) remains at the Tate, which was acquired in 2014. In November 2014, a retrospective on Jones opened at the Royal Academy of Arts, operating until January 2015 in London.

ARTISTIC STYLE AND INFLUENCES

Associated with the British Pop art movement of the late 1960s, Jones is recognized for his perform with lithography, painting, drawing, and sculpture.

The Cass Sculpture Foundation wrote about Jones’ perform that &quoton a flat canvas, painted forms seem sculptural and his three-dimensional functions are painterly. He uses colour to describe type, at times with graphic precision, or conversely with an power and freedom of gesture which is close to direct expression. Equivalent developments are evident in his printmaking.&quot
The Tate has described his output in lithography as &quotprolific,&quot writing that it &quotproved an appropriate medium for his graphic flair.&quot Artists and pop fashion designers such as Alexander McQueen, Issey Miyake and Richard Nicoll have cited Jones as an influence on their own types.

Jones is recognized for incorporating erotic imagery into his performs, such as rubber fetishism and BDSM, and this sexuality has usually been a focus of both art critics and the press.

Mark Hudson wrote in 2014 that Jones’ &quotsubjects have integrated musicians, dancers and London buses, but in the popular perception his name is irrevocably linked to his peerlessly kinky fetish girls, regardless of whether in two or three dimensions, with their machined surfaces and blank expressions – photos that are as emblematic of classic British pop art as Peter Blake’s Beatles paintings or Hockney’s swimming pools.&quot

In a evaluation on Jones’ profession, Richard Dorment wrote in November 2014 that &quotyou could argue that Jones’s operate isn’t really about females it is about guys and how they appear at and consider about girls. Men use a variety of methods to neutralise or manage wish. 1 is to fetishise the female body…[although] another is for the man to suitable it.&quot

Dorment additional explains himself by writing that turn to Jones’s paintings, and you see that he explores the theme of guys transformed into ladies once again and once again. A man dancing with a lady becomes inextricably fused into her physique yet another trades trousers and brogues for stockings and heels, as he walks from one edge of the canvas to the other…

Dorment further opines that &quotthe paintings… show males and women in sexual conditions, but they are joyous and liberated and self-indulgent in a way that the lugubrious mannequins aren’t.&quot Wrote Catrin Davies for Twin Factory in November 2014 about the show,

Jones’ paintings give a small counterbalance to the implied misogyny of his sculptures. In these colourfully kitsch scenes he paints about energy-play with cross-dressing inferences, of the dominate female, the submissive male, of the animalistic rituals of mating and the delicate interplay of coupling represented in the type of dance.

Quoting Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum | Vought OS2U-three Kingfisher:

The Kingfisher was the U.S. Navy’s major ship-primarily based, scout and observation aircraft for the duration of Planet War II. Revolutionary spot welding strategies gave it a smooth, non-buckling fuselage structure. Deflector plate flaps that hung from the wing’s trailing edge and spoiler-augmented ailerons functioned like extra flaps to enable slower landing speeds. Most OS2Us operated in the Pacific, where they rescued a lot of downed airmen, such as Globe War I ace Eddie Rickenbacker and the crew of his B-17 Flying Fortress.

In March 1942, this airplane was assigned to the battleship USS Indiana. It later underwent a six-month overhaul in California, returned to Pearl Harbor, and rejoined the Indiana in March 1944. Lt. j.g. Rollin M. Batten Jr. was awarded the Navy Cross for producing a daring rescue in this airplane below heavy enemy fire on July four, 1944.

Quoting Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum | Boeing B-29 Superfortress &quotEnola Gay&quot:

Boeing’s B-29 Superfortress was the most sophisticated propeller-driven bomber of Planet War II and the first bomber to house its crew in pressurized compartments. Though made to fight in the European theater, the B-29 found its niche on the other side of the globe. In the Pacific, B-29s delivered a assortment of aerial weapons: standard bombs, incendiary bombs, mines, and two nuclear weapons.

On August six, 1945, this Martin-constructed B-29-45-MO dropped the initial atomic weapon used in combat on Hiroshima, Japan. Three days later, Bockscar (on show at the U.S. Air Force Museum close to Dayton, Ohio) dropped a second atomic bomb on Nagasaki, Japan. Enola Gay flew as the advance climate reconnaissance aircraft that day. A third B-29, The Great Artiste, flew as an observation aircraft on both missions.

Berlin (/bərˈlɪn/; German pronunciation: [bɛɐ̯ˈliːn] ( listen)) is the capital of Germany and one of the 16 states of Germany. With a population of 3.5 million people,[4] Berlin is Germany’s largest city. It is the second most populous city proper and the seventh most populous urban area in the European Union.[5] Located in northeastern Germany on the River Spree, it is the center of the Berlin-Brandenburg Metropolitan Region, which has about 4.5 million residents from over 180 nations.[6][7][8][9] Due to its location in the European Plain, Berlin is influenced by a temperate seasonal climate. Around one third of the city’s area is composed of forests, parks, gardens, rivers and lakes.[10]

First documented in the 13th century, Berlin became the capital of the Margraviate of Brandenburg (1417), the Kingdom of Prussia (1701–1918), the German Empire (1871–1918), the Weimar Republic (1919–1933) and the Third Reich (1933–1945).[11] Berlin in the 1920s was the third largest municipality in the world.[12] After World War II, the city was divided; East Berlin became the capital of East Germany while West Berlin became a de facto West German exclave, surrounded by the Berlin Wall (1961–1989).[13] Following German reunification in 1990, the city was once more designated as the capital of all Germany, hosting 158 foreign embassies.[14]

Berlin is a world city of culture, politics, media, and science.[15][16][17][18] Its economy is based on high-tech firms and the service sector, encompassing a diverse range of creative industries, research facilities, media corporations, and convention venues.[19][20] Berlin serves as a continental hub for air and rail traffic and has a highly complex public transportation network. The metropolis is a popular tourist destination.[21] Significant industries also include IT, pharmaceuticals, biomedical engineering, clean tech, biotechnology, construction, and electronics.

Modern Berlin is home to renowned universities, orchestras, museums, entertainment venues, and is host to many sporting events.[22] Its urban setting has made it a sought-after location for international film productions.[23] The city is well known for its festivals, diverse architecture, nightlife, contemporary arts, and a high quality of living.[24] Over the last decade Berlin has seen the upcoming of a cosmopolitan entrepreneurial scene.[25]

20th to 21st centuries[edit]

Street, Berlin (1913) by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner
After 1910 Berlin had become a fertile ground for the German Expressionist movement. In fields such as architecture, painting and cinema new forms of artistic styles were invented. At the end of World War I in 1918, a republic was proclaimed by Philipp Scheidemann at the Reichstag building. In 1920, the Greater Berlin Act incorporated dozens of suburban cities, villages, and estates around Berlin into an expanded city. The act increased the area of Berlin from 66 to 883 km2 (25 to 341 sq mi). The population almost doubled and Berlin had a population of around four million. During the Weimar era, Berlin underwent political unrest due to economic uncertainties, but also became a renowned center of the Roaring Twenties. The metropolis experienced its heyday as a major world capital and was known for its leadership roles in science, the humanities, city planning, film, higher education, government, and industries. Albert Einstein rose to public prominence during his years in Berlin, being awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1921.

Berlin in ruins after World War II (Potsdamer Platz, 1945).
In 1933, Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party came to power. NSDAP rule effectively destroyed Berlin’s Jewish community, which had numbered 160,000, representing one-third of all Jews in the country. Berlin’s Jewish population fell to about 80,000 as a result of emigration between 1933 and 1939. After Kristallnacht in 1938, thousands of the city’s persecuted groups were imprisoned in the nearby Sachsenhausen concentration camp or, starting in early 1943, were shipped to death camps, such as Auschwitz.[39] During World War II, large parts of Berlin were destroyed in the 1943–45 air raids and during the Battle of Berlin. Around 125,000 civilians were killed.[40] After the end of the war in Europe in 1945, Berlin received large numbers of refugees from the Eastern provinces. The victorious powers divided the city into four sectors, analogous to the occupation zones into which Germany was divided. The sectors of the Western Allies (the United States, the United Kingdom and France) formed West Berlin, while the Soviet sector formed East Berlin.[41]

The Berlin Wall in 1986, painted on the western side. People crossing the so-called "death strip" on the eastern side were at risk of being shot.
All four Allies shared administrative responsibilities for Berlin. However, in 1948, when the Western Allies extended the currency reform in the Western zones of Germany to the three western sectors of Berlin, the Soviet Union imposed a blockade on the access routes to and from West Berlin, which lay entirely inside Soviet-controlled territory. The Berlin airlift, conducted by the three western Allies, overcame this blockade by supplying food and other supplies to the city from June 1948 to May 1949.[42] In 1949, the Federal Republic of Germany was founded in West Germany and eventually included all of the American, British, and French zones, excluding those three countries’ zones in Berlin, while the Marxist-Leninist German Democratic Republic was proclaimed in East Germany. West Berlin officially remained an occupied city, but it politically was aligned with the Federal Republic of Germany despite West Berlin’s geographic isolation. Airline service to West Berlin was granted only to American, British, and French airlines.

The fall of the Berlin Wall on 9 November 1989. On 3 October 1990, the German reunification process was formally finished.
The founding of the two German states increased Cold War tensions. West Berlin was surrounded by East German territory, and East Germany proclaimed the Eastern part as its capital, a move that was not recognized by the western powers. East Berlin included most of the historic center of the city. The West German government established itself in Bonn.[43] In 1961, East Germany began the building of the Berlin Wall between East and West Berlin, and events escalated to a tank standoff at Checkpoint Charlie. West Berlin was now de facto a part of West Germany with a unique legal status, while East Berlin was de facto a part of East Germany. John F. Kennedy gave his "Ich bin ein Berliner" – speech in 1963 underlining the US support for the Western part of the city. Berlin was completely divided. Although it was possible for Westerners to pass from one to the other side through strictly controlled checkpoints, for most Easterners travel to West Berlin or West Germany prohibited. In 1971, a Four-Power agreement guaranteed access to and from West Berlin by car or train through East Germany.[44]

In 1989, with the end of the Cold War and pressure from the East German population, the Berlin Wall fell on 9 November and was subsequently mostly demolished. Today, the East Side Gallery preserves a large portion of the Wall. On 3 October 1990, the two parts of Germany were reunified as the Federal Republic of Germany, and Berlin again became the official German capital. In 1991, the German Parliament, the Bundestag, voted to move the seat of the (West) German capital from Bonn to Berlin, which was completed in 1999. Berlin’s 2001 administrative reform merged several districts. The number of boroughs was reduced from 23 to twelve. In 2006 the FIFA World Cup Final was held in Berlin.

The Berlin Wall (German: Berliner Mauer) was a barrier that divided Berlin from 1961 to 1989,[1] constructed by the German Democratic Republic (GDR, East Germany) starting on 13 August 1961, that completely cut off (by land) West Berlin from surrounding East Germany and from East Berlin until it was opened in November 1989.[2] Its demolition officially began on 13 June 1990 and was completed in 1992. [3] The barrier included guard towers placed along large concrete walls,[4] which circumscribed a wide area (later known as the "death strip") that contained anti-vehicle trenches, "fakir beds" and other defenses. The Eastern Bloc claimed that the wall was erected to protect its population from fascist elements conspiring to prevent the "will of the people" in building a socialist state in East Germany. In practice, the Wall served to prevent the massive emigration and defection that marked East Germany and the communist Eastern Bloc during the post-World War II period.

The Berlin Wall was officially referred to as the "Anti-Fascist Protection Rampart" (German: Antifaschistischer Schutzwall) by GDR authorities, implying that the NATO countries and West Germany in particular were "fascists."[5] The West Berlin city government sometimes referred to it as the "Wall of Shame"—a term coined by mayor Willy Brandt—while condemning the Wall’s restriction on freedom of movement. Along with the separate and much longer Inner German border (IGB), which demarcated the border between East and West Germany, it came to symbolize the "Iron Curtain" that separated Western Europe and the Eastern Bloc during the Cold War.

Before the Wall’s erection, 3.5 million East Germans circumvented Eastern Bloc emigration restrictions and defected from the GDR, many by crossing over the border from East Berlin into West Berlin, from where they could then travel to West Germany and other Western European countries. Between 1961 and 1989, the wall prevented almost all such emigration.[6] During this period, around 5,000 people attempted to escape over the wall, with an estimated death toll of from 136[7] to more than 200[8] in and around Berlin.

In 1989, a series of radical political changes occurred in the Eastern Bloc, associated with the liberalization of the Eastern Bloc’s authoritarian systems and the erosion of political power in the pro-Soviet governments in nearby Poland and Hungary. After several weeks of civil unrest, the East German government announced on 9 November 1989 that all GDR citizens could visit West Germany and West Berlin. Crowds of East Germans crossed and climbed onto the wall, joined by West Germans on the other side in a celebratory atmosphere. Over the next few weeks, euphoric public and souvenir hunters chipped away parts of the wall; the governments later used industrial equipment to remove most of what was left. Contrary to popular belief the wall’s actual demolition did not begin until Summer 1990 and was not completed until 1992.[1] The fall of the Berlin Wall paved the way for German reunification, which was formally concluded on 3 October 1990.

Contrary to popular belief the wall’s actual demolition did not begin until Summer 1990 and was not completed until 1992.[1] The fall of the Berlin Wall paved the way for German reunification, which was formally concluded on 3 October 1990.

Saw these two cosplayers while they have been receiving scanned for a 3D printing business the business would then take an order to make 4-inch to eight-inch statues of the client’s likeness. As I didn’t want to ruin their scanning experience (which was fascinating to watch as I am endlessly fascinated by creation processes), I asked if I could take their photographs once they had been accomplished. And voila!

Speyer – Technikmuseum Speyer – De Havilland Vampire Schweizer Luftwaffe J-1081

Image by Daniel Mennerich
The de Havilland DH.100 Vampire was a British jet fighter created and manufactured by de Havilland. Obtaining been developed throughout the Second Planet War to harness the newly created jet engine, the Vampire entered service with the Royal Air Force (RAF) in 1945. It was the second jet fighter, following the Gloster Meteor, operated by the RAF and its very first to be powered by a single jet engine.

The RAF utilized the Vampire as a front line fighter until 1953 ahead of it assumed secondary roles such as pilot instruction. It was retired by the RAF in 1966, replaced by the Hawker Hunter and Gloster Javelin. It accomplished several aviation firsts and records, like getting the initial jet aircraft to cross the Atlantic Ocean. The Vampire had several export sales and was operated by various air forces. It participated in subsequent conflicts such as the 1948 Arab–Israeli War, the Malayan emergency and the Rhodesian Bush War.

Virtually three,300 Vampires had been manufactured, a quarter of them built under licence in other countries. The Royal Navy’s 1st jet fighter was the Sea Vampire, a navalised variant which was operated from its aircraft carriers. The Vampire was created into the DH.115 dual-seat trainer and the much more advanced DH.112 Venom ground-attack and night fighter.

The Curtiss P-40 Warhawk was an American single-engine, single-seat, all-metal fighter and ground attack aircraft that initial flew in 1938. The P-40 style was a modification of the previous Curtiss P-36 Hawk which reduced improvement time and enabled a rapid entry into production and operational service. The Warhawk was employed by the air forces of 28 nations, including those of most Allied powers for the duration of World War II, and remained in front line service until the end of the war. It was the third most-developed American fighter, soon after the P-51 and P-47 by November 1944, when production of the P-40 ceased, 13,738 had been built, all at Curtiss-Wright Corporation’s major production facilities at Buffalo, New York.

Donald S. Lopez, Sr. ( July 15, 1923 — March three, 2008) was a former U.S. Army and U.S. Air Force fighter and test pilot and until his death the deputy director of the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum.

The Beth Chatto Gardens – A Small Bit of Light Releaf!

Image by antonychammond
One particular of the greats of British gardening, Beth Chatto OBE has entered the realm of national treasuredom. Plants-lady, designer, author, 10-time gold-medal winner at Chelsea, holder of the Royal Horticultural Society’s Victoria Medal of Honour and, of course, the owner of the celebrated Beth Chatto Gardens at Elmstead Market, close to Colchester, in Essex – her horticultural abilities seem boundless. With the idea of “right plant, proper place” – in other words, put a plant in circumstances close to its organic habitat and it will thrive without assist – running as a thread throughout her profession, she has inspired a generation of gardeners to take their lead from nature.

The garden has been the inspiration for several of her influential books, like The Dry Garden (1978), The Damp Garden (1992) and Beth Chatto’s Gravel Garden (2000). It was designed on land that was previously component of a fruit farm, owned by her late husband, Andrew, 14 years her senior, whom she married in 1943. “We met in the course of the war,” she says. “I was a schoolgirl of about 17, contemplating going to college.”

A scholarly man, who died in 1999 after suffering from emphysema for 25 years, Andrew devoted significantly of his life to investigation into plant habitats. Chatto says it was he who inspired her interest in gardening and refers to him often, modestly deferring to his superior knowledge. “He’s such an essential influence in my life,” she says. “My parents had been keen, but they had a conventional garden, using mostly cultivars.”

The couple lived initially in his parents’ in Colchester, but in the late 1950s moved to a modernist property they’d built on the edge of the farm – exactly where Chatto nevertheless lives these days. Even inside, the garden is a continual presence. Large windows frame views and vignettes of the planting on each side and invite a tapestry of textures, colours and shapes into the residence.

Chatto credits her husband almost totally for her success. “My two daughters have been teenagers just before I started to think about generating a company,” she says. “Andrew had looked after us and offered me the safety and freedom to experiment.” Her husband’s failing overall health and the trials of running a fruit farm concentrated her mind on establishing the garden commercially, even though what we see right now took time to emerge.

“For the very first seven or eight years, a lot of the land was a wilderness,” she recalls. But there had been assets, also, not least a rare natural water supply in the drought-prone east of Essex, exactly where rainfall can be as small as 20in a year. “There were a couple of fine 300-year-old oaks and a spring-fed ditch ran through the hollow.” Nowadays, the ornamental gardens cover about 5 acres a further 10 are occupied by the nursery, which opened in 1967, and functioning areas.

Locating water was not the only challenge. “There was land that was so dry, the native weeds curled up and died. That eventually became my gravel garden,” she says. This she designed in 1991, on the internet site of a car park. Apart from watering in the young, drought-tolerant plants in the course of the first year, she has never artificially irrigated it.

Chatto has a knack for turning problem regions into an asset, and there are numerous distinct regions in the garden, every requiring a distinct approach. The huge water gardens are dominated by a series of ponds surrounded by bog plants and swathes of lush grass. A extended, shady stroll runs parallel to 1 of the boundaries. Here, shade-tolerant planting – such as ferns, tiarella and pulmonaria – carpet the ground beneath oaks and other specimen trees added by Chatto. By contrast, the gravel region is a mass of sun-loving perennials, with asters, rudbeckias and sedums glowing by way of hazy grasses.

The garden might have started out to give pleasure to a household, but it has created into a self-contained horticultural powerhouse, attracting visitors from all over the world – about 40,000 a year. “It’s like sowing an acorn, which is my symbol,” says Chatto. “I have an acorn and an oak tree on a climate vane, which was a superb present from my staff.” Incredibly, it is tended by only one complete-time and 4 element-time gardeners and volunteers – many of whom are foreign students. Chatto remains resolutely hands-on and is keen to pass on the understanding she has gained via expertise.

Chatto utilizes grasses brilliantly, and was doing so extended before it became trendy. She creates seemingly effortless but completely satisfying combinations. Therein lies her genius – there may possibly be others out there with an equal understanding of plants, but no one else has her eye. Shape, scale, proportion, texture, colour – all are balanced with the skill of a plate-spinner.

She also factors in horticultural considerations – how big a plant will get, how quickly or gradually it will develop, what circumstances it wants to thrive and how it is maintained. The outcome is a garden that functions on each and every level – practical, horticultural and aesthetic – with layer upon layer of meticulously placed plants, as enticing asmillefeuillepastry. It all appears completely uncontrived, but, on closer inspection, one particular notices geometric lines and angles. The big picture is constructed up steadily, with tiny groupings of 3 or much more plants forming a satisfying melange of verticals and horizontals, and fluffy and strong plants. “I require the trees and shrubs to form a background, to paint the sky and lead the eye upwards towards the clouds,” Chatto explains. “Then one adds the embroidery, which I take pleasure in so considerably.” Nothing is allowed to get out of hand, but stagnation is not an selection, either. “A garden is not a picture hanging on a wall,” she says. “It modifications not only from hour to hour, week to week or month to month, but from year to year.”

Chatto has certainly noticed the effects of climate change. Drought is absolutely nothing new in her part of the world, where (the past two years aside) there is often no rain for up to ten weeks in the summer. “The most interesting change is the lack of cold climate,” she says. “Only ten years ago, we had icicles hanging down, and when the young children were small, they utilised to skate. Now we hardly have enough ice to bear a duck.” From an report by Rachel de Thame

On Saturday, November 26, NASA is scheduled to launch the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) mission featuring Curiosity, the largest and most sophisticated rover ever sent to the Red Planet.

The Curiosity rover bristles with several cameras and instruments, like Goddard’s Sample Analysis at Mars (SAM) instrument suite. By looking for proof of water, carbon, and other critical building blocks of life in the Martian soil and atmosphere, SAM will assist find out no matter whether Mars ever had the possible to help life. Curiosity will be delivered to Gale crater, a 96-mile-wide crater that contains a record of environmental adjustments in its sedimentary rock, in August 2012.

This pc-generated view depicts component of Mars at the boundary between darkness and daylight, with an location which includes Gale Crater beginning to catch morning light.

Gale Crater looms in the distance, distinguished from adjacent craters by its central mountain of strata. Gale Crater straddles the dichotomy boundary of Mars, which separates the broad, flat, and young northern plains from the a lot older and rougher southern highlands. There is evidence that water may possibly have flowed across this topographic boundary, from highland to lowland, possibly pooling locally inside Gale Crater and forming the lowermost strata that fill the crater.

Northward is to the left. Gale is the crater with a mound inside it near the center of the image. NASA has selected Gale as the landing internet site for the Mars Science Laboratory mission. The mission’s rover will be placed on the ground in a northern portion of Gale Crater in August 2012.

Gale Crater is 96 miles (154 kilometers) in diameter and holds a layered mountain increasing about three miles (five kilometers) above the crater floor. The intended landing website is at four.five degrees south latitude, 137.4 degrees east longitude.

This view was developed making use of three-dimensional info from the Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter, which flew on NASA’s Mars Global Surveyor orbiter. The vertical dimension is not exaggerated. Colour information is primarily based on basic Mars colour traits.

Tree fern frond ……..

Image by Dilan Damith Prasanga’s
From Wikipedia :

In basic, any fern that grows with a trunk elevating the fronds (leaves) above ground level can be called a tree fern. Nonetheless, the plants formally known as tree ferns comprise a group of large ferns belonging to the families Dicksoniaceae and Cyatheaceae in the order Cyatheales.

Tree ferns are discovered increasing in tropical and subtropical locations, as nicely as temperate rainforests in South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, and other island groups nearby a couple of genera extend further, such as Culcita in southern Europe. Like all ferns, tree ferns reproduce by implies of spores created in sporangia on the undersides of the fronds.

Dicksonia antarctica at Kew
The fronds of tree ferns are typically extremely large and numerous-pinnated, but at least 1 variety has complete (undivided) fronds. The fronds of tree ferns also exhibit circinate vernation, which means the young fronds emerge in coils that uncurl as they grow.

As opposed to flowering plants, tree ferns do not form new woody tissue in their trunk as they grow. Rather, the trunk is supported by a fibrous mass of roots that expands as the tree fern grows.

Some genera — for instance Dicksonia and Cibotium, but not Cyathea — can be transplanted by severing the prime portion from the rest of the trunk and replanting it. If the transplanted top element is kept moist it will regrow a new root program over the next year. The success price of transplantation increases to about 80% if the roots are dug up intact. If the crown of the Tasmanian tree fern Dicksonia antarctica (the most frequent species in gardens) is damaged, it will die simply because all new development happens there. But other clump-forming tree fern species, such as D. squarrosa and D. youngiae, can regenerate from basal offsets or from &quotpups&quot emerging along the surviving trunk length. Tree ferns usually fall over in the wild, but manage to reroot from this new prostrate position and commence new vertical development.

M5A1 (Stuart VI) Light Tank. 1941- 43.

Image by Peer.Gynt
Moscow. Kubinka Tank Museum.

The M3 Stuart, formally Light Tank M3 was an American light tank of Planet War II. It was used by British and Commonwealth forces prior to the entry of the USA into the war, and thereafter by US and Allied forces until the finish of the war. The name Basic Stuart or Stuart given by the British comes from the American Civil War General J.E.B. Stuart and was utilised for both the M3 and M5 Light Tank in British service it also had the unofficial nickname of Honey. To the United States Army the tanks were officially recognized only as Light Tank M3 and Light Tank M5.
History
Observing events in Europe, American tank designers realized that the Light Tank M2 was becoming obsolete and set about enhancing it. The upgraded design and style, with thicker armor, modified suspension and new gun recoil program was called &quotLight Tank M3&quot. Production of the vehicle began in March 1941 and continued until October 1943. Like its direct predecessor, the M2A4, the M3 was armed with a 37 mm M5 gun and five .30-06 Browning M1919A4 machine guns: coaxial with the gun, on best of the turret in an M20 AA mount, in a ball mount in appropriate bow, in the right and left hull sponsons.

To relieve the demand for the radial aero-engines utilized in the M3, a new version was created using twin Cadillac V-8 automobile engines. The new model (initially referred to as M4 but redesignated M5 to avoid confusion with the M4 Sherman) also featured a redesigned hull with sloped glacis plate and driver’s hatches moved to the leading. Despite the fact that the major criticism from the employing units was that the Stuarts lacked firepower, the improved M5 series kept the very same 37 mm gun. The M5 steadily replaced the M3 in production from 1942 and was in turn succeeded by the Light Tank M24 in 1944.

Combat history

Light Tank M5A1 passes by way of the wrecked streets of Coutances.
An Australian Stuart I for the duration of the final assault on Buna.
A British M3 (Stuart I) knocked out in the course of fighting in North Africa.The British Army was the 1st to use the Light Tank M3 as the &quotGeneral Stuart&quot in combat. In November 1941, some 170 Stuarts took part in Operation Crusader, with poor outcomes. Although the high losses suffered by Stuart-equipped units in the course of the operation had much more to do with better techniques and coaching of the Afrika Korps than the apparent superiority of German armor in the North African campaign, the operation revealed that the M3 had many technical faults. Pointed out in the British complaints were the 37 mm M5 gun and poor internal layout. The two-man turret crew was a important weakness, and some British units tried to fight with three-man turret crews. The Stuart also had a restricted range, which was a severe issue in desert warfare as units usually outpaced their supplies and had been stranded when they ran out of fuel. On the optimistic side, crews liked its high speed and mechanical reliability, therefore its unofficial nickname of Honey. The high speed and high reliability distinguished the Stuart from cruiser tanks of the period, in distinct the Crusader, which composed a massive portion of the British tank force in Africa up until 1942.

From the summer of 1942, when adequate US medium tanks had been received, the British generally kept Stuarts out of tank-to-tank combat, utilizing them mainly for reconnaissance. The turret was removed from some examples to save weight and boost speed and variety. These became recognized as &quotStuart Recce&quot. Some others have been converted to armored personnel carriers and had been recognized as &quotStuart Kangaroo&quot, and some had been converted command vehicles and known as &quotStuart Command&quot. M3s, M3A3s, and M5s continued in British service till the end of the war, but British armor units had a smaller proportion of these light tanks than US units.

The other main Lend-Lease recipient of the M3, the Soviet Union, was even less satisfied with the tank, thinking about it undergunned, underarmored, likely to catch fire, and as well sensitive to fuel top quality. The narrow tracks had been highly unsuited to operation in winter circumstances, as they resulted in high ground pressures that sank the tank into the snow. Also, the M3’s radial aircraft engine essential higher-octane fuel, which difficult Soviet logistics as most of their tanks utilized diesel. Nevertheless, the M3 was superior to early-war Soviet light tanks such as the T-60, which have been usually underpowered and possessed even lighter armament than the Stuart. In 1943, the Red Army attempted out the M5 and decided that the upgraded design wasn’t significantly greater than the M3. Being much less desperate than in 1941, the Soviets turned down an American offer you to supply the M5. M3s continued in Red Army service at least until 1944.

In US Army service, the M3 very first saw combat in the Philippines. Two battalions, comprising the Provisional Tank Group fought in the Bataan peninsula campaign. When the American army joined the North African Campaign in late 1942, Stuart units nevertheless formed a big component of its armor strength. Right after the disastrous Battle of the Kasserine Pass the US rapidly followed the British in disbanding most of their light tank battalions and subordinating the Stuarts to medium tank battalions performing the conventional cavalry missions of scouting and screening. For the rest of the war, most US tank battalions had three companies of M4 Shermans and one company of M3s or M5/M5A1s.

In the European theater, Allied light tanks had to be provided cavalry and infantry fire support roles because their principal cannon armament could not compete with heavier enemy AFVs. Even so, the Stuart was nevertheless powerful in combat in the Pacific Theater, as Japanese tanks were both reasonably uncommon and have been typically much weaker than even Allied light tanks. Japanese infantrymen were poorly equipped with anti-tank weapons and tended to attack tanks employing close-assault tactics. In this environment, the Stuart was only moderately far more vulnerable than medium tanks. In addition, the poor terrain and roads typical to the theatre have been unsuitable for the considerably heavier M4 medium tanks, and so initially, only light armor could be deployed. Heavier M4s were sooner or later brought to overcome heavily entrenched positions, although the Stuart continued to serve in a combat capacity till the finish of the war.

Though the Stuart was to be completely replaced by the newer M24 Chaffee, the quantity of M3s/M5s created was so fantastic (over 25,000 including the 75 mm HMC M8) that the tank remained in service till the end of the war and nicely right after. In addition to the United States, United Kingdom and Soviet Union, who have been the major users, it was also used by France, China (M3A3s and, instantly post-war, M5A1s) and Tito’s partisans in Yugoslavia (M3A3s and handful of M3A1).

After the war, some countries chose to equip their armies with low cost and reliable Stuarts. The Republic of China Army, having suffered wonderful attrition in terms of armors as a outcome of the ensuing civil war, rebuilt their armored forces by acquiring surplus automobiles left behind in the former PTO by the US forces, which includes 22 M5A1s to equip two tank firms. They would have their finest hours during the Battle of Kuningtou, for which the tank came to be identified as the &quotBear of Kinmen&quot (金門之熊). The M5 played a considerable part in the Initial Kashmir War (1947) amongst India and Pakistan, including the battle of Zoji-la pass at an extraordinary altitude of almost 12,000 ft. The car remained in service in a number of South American countries at least until 1996.

Throughout the 60s and 70s, the Portuguese Army also utilized some in the war in Angola, exactly where its all terrain capability (compared to wheeled cars) was greatly appreciated.

Wipperkotten – winter light at the river Wupper

The Wipperkotten in the Bergisch Land was constructed as a grindery in about 1605 and it is the last existing twin constructing of formerly 26 grinding sheds at the reduce river Wupper.
It was private initiative which brought this grindery plant with its water weir under historical
protection in 1955. Like in former instances, two undershot waterwheels are spinning between
both of these historical buildings. The land bound house is nonetheless utilised as grindery.

On a modest island in the Wupper there is our water side house. Its waterwheel was rebuilt in
1964. With its 32 wooden blades it accomplishes on to 42 BHP. ( 4,20 m)
The shown handmade tools and utensils from Bergisch grinderies are cultural documents of
the blade manufacturing . This was supported by the finding and extraction of ore
(ten. to 12. century) in this region.

Dortmund – Zeche Zollern II IV 08

Image by Daniel Mennerich
The Zeche Zollern II/IV (translated: Zollern II/IV Colliery) is positioned in the northwestern suburb of Bövinghausen of Dortmund, Germany. The Gelsenkirchener Bergwerks-AG projected Zollern in 1898 as a model colliery.

Ground up construction began in 1898 on a new website. Most of the buildings of the colliery were constructed in solid brickwork by the architect Paul Knobbe and had been completed in 1904 with the central engine house, in which the most up-to-date generators and machinery utilized in the colliery had been housed. The architecture and state-of-the-art technology help the transition of Gothic-revival to Art Nouveau and the industrialization of the early 1900s.

Due to deadline stress, the central engine property was built in iron framework building with infilling of red brickwork, planned and executed by the Gutehoffnungshütte. The Art Nouveau styled major entrance was made by the Berlin architect Bruno Möhring, it shows a lead glazing of blue, green and-glass. Counterpart of the main entrance is the massive control board of polished marble in brass mounting, with a brass clock hanging from above.

Other buildings on the web site consist of administration bureaus, blacksmith’s shop and carpenter’s shop, first-aid and fire station with stable, pithead baths, tools shop and the central gateway.

In 1969, three years following it closed down, the colliery was recognized as Germany’s 1st technical developing monument of international importance. Given that 1981, it has been the headquarters of the Westphalian Industrial Museum.

The original pit frames had been scrapped before 1969, two comparable constructions from other collieries had been reconstructed on this web site in the 1980s.

The museum is an anchor point on the European Route of Industrial Heritage.
