The Crescent Moon Tower, Dubai

The Crescent Moon Tower is the architectural design project submitted to the 11th ThyssenKrup Elevator Architecture Award by the California-based firm Transparence House. In response to the challenge to design a tall emblem structure for Za’abeel Park, one that should signify the modern face of Dubai, Transparence House chose a larger than life crescent shape that has a two-fold statement. First it boldly identifies Dubai as part of the Islamic world, and second, because of the technical difficulty of building such a structure, it proclaims Dubai’s advanced level of technical and economic development.
The Crescent Moon Tower is designed to accommodate a children’s library, a conference facility, a restaurant, multiple cafes, and an open-air observation platform.

David Gilliver, 1979 ~ Psychadelic Light painter

David Gilliver started to experiment with long exposure photography in hours around dusk and after sunset, allowing the camera to keep on exposing for longer time, producing images and effects incapable for the human eye to see.
The technique used by the artist, involves the photographer using a long - duration shutter speed on the camera, while he walks into the picture frame adding the lights he wants, using glow sticks, light orb or torches. The shoot may last as longs a 30 minutes. The effect also makes moving objects blurry, while stationary object remain sharp.

Albert Einstein | L'Autobiografia scientifica

Anthony Falbo 1953 | American Cubist painter | Albert Einstein 1879-1955

  • La mente è come un paracadute. Funziona solo se si apre.
  • L'immaginazione è più importante della conoscenza. La conoscenza è limitata, l'immaginazione abbraccia il mondo, stimolando il progresso, facendo nascere l'evoluzione.
  • Le persone sono come le biciclette: riescono a mantenere l'equilibrio solo se continuano a muoversi.
  • L'uomo che è convinto dell'esistenza e della operatività della legge di causalità non può concepire l'idea di un Essere che interferisce con il corso degli eventi. A patto naturalmente che egli prenda l'ipotesi della causalità veramente sul serio.
