A few more views of Cape Canaveral. The hanger in the fourth image down was where Werner Von Braun’s office was located.

Paint Shop in Gent

I arrived back in London today for a short holiday before starting a new job at the University of Brighton in January. I will miss a bunch of talented colleagues from Winnipeg but am happy to be back. I will be travelling a bit over the next few days but will try to keep posting.

Sheats Goldstein House

Some views of the underside of the main roof in John Lautner’s Sheats Goldstein House in LA (taken a few years ago), with glass tumblers cast into the concrete. I will be on the road for the next few days so please be patient with me if I am not able to post every day.

Instrument Six (Nat Chard)

Three views of Instrument Six in action, the two top views construct paradoxical shadows that float in the air, adjacent to the surface you would expect them to land on , in real time. The bottom image is of the instrument in photographic mode where the relative parallax between shadow projections can be adjusted for pairs of stereoscopic photographs, and it uses a single lightbulb instead of a pair of candles.
