Love In Order

Lately I`ve become somewhat obsessed with instruction manuals, by that I mean the ones where you get description in both words and picture. Lego is of course a favorite. Actually, it`s come to a point where my like-manuals-ness became inspiration for my diploma project; Constant City, Ephemeral Changes.

Wired Friday

Rereading an old Wired magazine on a geeky friday night (drinking no alcohol, but the best water on planet earth; Egekilde, Citrus Med Brus and listening to an Elton record). When rereading I rediscovered a fascinating illustration of a flooded London. The headline goes something like this: Global Warming Comes To Town. Al Gore-ish, I know, but just a pinch “An Inconvenient Truth”. No overkill. The illustration is made by GMJ.

“….instead of the usual clichéd post-apocalyptic nightmare, GMJ have documented what they calculate would be the resulting Venetian beauty.”

They also made the Wired cover, you will find it down on the left side of the page. Future London. Without flooding.

"This Is Fucking Art"

Jakob was the "photomaker", late one night, at THE eurodance party. The 90s do the trick.

Golden Lock

Thomas and Dieter sent me this for my birthday. Thank you, guys. Had NO idea you were fans. `preciate it.

Fly Away

This huge baby flew me (and JSC) to New York City. Grateful. Found my old-fashion-printed photos the other day. Spent a long time taking pictures of pictures pictures. The digital version added a faded touch to them, and the reflection of my hands. Always a winner. Facts forever: Babies, as already mentioned, is often referred to as JumboJets, the official name; 747. You have different editions. 747SP. 747 LCF. 747-400 and 747-8. The first flight was in 1969, in other words 40 years ago. Jumbo got a range up to 13.450 km. A number I find small. The perimeter of the world around equator is 40 075 km. They can accommodate 416 passengers in a typical three-class-layout, and max speed is 918 km/h. 13.450/918=14.65 hours constant flying (theoretically). The body excluding cargo weighs 162.400-214.503 kg, depending on model. Max takeoff weight: 333.400-439.985 kg. 333.400-162.400=171.000 kg cargo. Pretty much, considering I`m 70 kg including my personal cargo (416x100 (added 30 kg to be sure, to be sure)=41600 kg), but I`m not fuel. And I guess that is their top priority. Max fuel, 183.380-243.120 L. 183.380/1000=183.38 cubic metres of fuel. That correlate to 30.6 of my preferred rental cars from ML-Flyt in Århus. In 1970 Boeing had as much as 92 deliveries, in 2008, 14 deliveries. British Airways operates the largest fleet of 747s in the world, with 55 examples. This is one of them..or maybe 8. Hard to tell.
