A little slideshow of my hobby.
I think this will lead to something major.... I'm still working on it.....

Sometimes it is interesting to look at the juxtaposition of things...

Light Moon & Liszt
I realize that this may be an unconventional post on SC, as it is a personal video. Yet, I would not post it, if I did not think it was relevant to the spirit of the blog. I was inspired by the moment, noting timing, light, moon and energy to take pictures at a specific moment. Later, I joined them in this video. Sometimes, all these things we discuss here seem so far from everyday reality, until a moment like this.

I am thrilled to be living in a city screening "Particle Fever", the new documentary film on Cern and the search for the HIggs boson particle.

I would venture to say that this may be the most innovative fashion "runway" show you have ever seen. Even if you are not a fan of fashion, the video is an incredible visual journey through a fractal world. However, if you are interested in the fashion and the design of the clothing, you will find layers upon layers of fabric draped and wrapped around the body following the inspiration of the topography of nature.
Quoting from video post:
TOPO-GRAPHIC
threeASFOUR’s Fall 2014 collection reveals the varied visual aspects of Nature and its inherent sacred geometries through a topographic approach. Within the collection, surface shapes, elevations and textures relate to each other as well as to the terrain of the human body. Fractal geometry and dimensionality again play a big part in this season’s collection. This virtual runway show features Lily McMenamay wearing the collection within an animated 3D fractal environment. This film is a continuation of threeASFOUR’s experimentation and exploration of new technologies .

*** I have a great screen shot image from the video that I wanted to upload to the post, but despite its small size and jpeg format, is not allowing me. Thanks to all who take the time to look without the image teaser.

Most people on SC, myself included, post videos and writings science related. After listening to a song tonight, I realized that not much music is posted. Some may think this is not the forum for that. However, I tend to disagree. Inspiration can be found in many forms. The song I am about to share is called "Mind Power". The title alone, I feel justifies its presence on this intellectual blog. I hope you enjoy and find inspiration.
The link is to the song "Mind Power" by Kokolo Afrobeat, and it includes the lyrics.
