The glass harp is one of those love it or hate it instruments. I love this.

[jamiebk]

I can only do that after consuming about three of the large snifters of wine! lol.

(PS...I did really enjoy this. the music really fits the "instrument".)

Well, that's good. But you ought to listen to my CD's of dogs barking Wagner's Ring Cycle. After listening to 14 hours of barking it changes you.

Wonderful! It was good that the joke was explained at the end, and the husbands/boyfiends weren't left in the lurch.

Well, that was certainly entertaining. Found myself laughing out loud on that one.

Space porn!!!! Totally safe for workplace. 400 seconds in the life of a space shuttle booster. I watched it....three times!!!!

Very neat. Speaks volumes for the cameras, too, to stand up to that sort of air velocity, debris bombardment, and water immersion on splashdown.

I thought the conductor's art was more rigid. But it looks more like he is trying to persuade the musicians to see his vision of the piece.

I've posted others from this series, but this definitely gives me more appreciation for complexity of the 5th.

What a lovely voice.

[dai bread]

Very nice indeed. Both of them.

A forgotten New York City “Hidden” Subway station is both visually stunning and an illustration of how elaborate top-down economic planning (shovel-ready, even) is often outpaced by technological development, creating massive waste.

It was opened in 1904, with the hope of making it the crowning glory of the New York subway system in elegant architecture and a place for commemorative plaques to honour the work that had resulted in such a successful underground mass transit system.……..The reason for its closure was that newer longer cars were required ……… as the stations tracks were severely curved, a dangerous gap between the train doors and the platform was formed making it an unsafe area. This combined with the fact that only about 600 people used it, resulted in its closure with only mythical plans of turning it into a transit museum.

Stunning pictures. Someone should use it as the setting for some urban fantasy movie.

I thought the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were living there...
