Light dispersion - Newton's prims experiment
Light being dispersed into it's component was the other side of Newton's experiment. It is amazing to know that light cannot be white in itself.
A demonstration of Issac Newton's colour wheel - white made of colors
I found this demonstration of Newton's color wheel at Wolfram Demonstration project.
Newton proved that light is a combination of a seven colors spectrum (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet).
I remember doing a color wheel in high school and it was a very interesting experience. The disc may have the right hues of the light, colours of the rainbow, and must be rotated quick enough to make our eyes not distinguish each one.
I cannot help to thing that white is a kind of illusion and if our eyes could see more quickly... well... I'm rambling.

Utamaro and his five women
The movie "Utamaro and his his women", 1946, tells the story of the printmaker who depicted women in a seductive manner usually wearing kimonos. To see a selection of the Utamaro's prints you can search here or wait till I post about them.

Nicholas Ganz the multimedia graffiti's man
I just visited Nicholas Ganz site from where I took these pictures. He is not only a graffiti man and can use canvas as a support - isn't it amazing? -or bottles as you can see at the picture.
The worse of his sins, or crimes, was taking photographs of street art and publishing them in a book "Graffiti World: Street Art from Five Continents".
Bad news for those who still think that graffiti is the result of a bunch of boys that has nothing better to do: the book was translated in many languages and became a blockbuster.
Worse: Nicholas, or Keinom his artistic name, published "Graffiti Women" when he noticed the lack of name of women in the street art scenery.
Quite an achievement since he also writes about the graffiti phenomenon around the world. Take a look at this page "What is Keinom?" where he writes a little about his story.
Take care Keinom!

The real Monet's garden at Giverny
When we think about the Giverny garden we forget that it still exists and only remember the water lilies. I just came across with this site that shows how the garden change in each station. These photos were taken in May, 210.
Ariane"In Monet’s garden, I believe most of the meetings between plants aren’t accidental. Monet, as well as the present day head gardener, was very good at organising dates among the Flowers."

Hella Heaven at virtual world
This is my avatar at Second Life. Yes I am at this game as well as many strange people. Some people think that it is only a game but funny... you meet people from all over the world and can have nice relationships with amazing human beings and talk to them by voice and create a deep connection. It is also possible to share some of your problems with someone you never met and many times I talked to people who were in trouble like an American soldier that was psychologically very disturbed but had to go back to Iraq in two months. I only talked to him once and I don't know what happened to him.
As in real life you get disappointed and have to deal with many kind of annoying stuffs and even get hurt because of a friend or, seriously, a woman/man relationship.
That is strange but some people connect in such a way that they fall in love and I have even seen marriages of people that never met in real life.
It is very hard to explain how are things in the virtual world but I think it is a good experience if you have a little patience and is lucky to find nice people before you give up. There is not too many things to do at Second Life for those who are not connected to any institution and in the last years the first aim of the game is to make money for real life. Linden, the currency of the game, is bought outside the game with credit card and you have to pay for everything especially for land one of the most important sources of income and what made landowners have the function of shareholders in a real life company. It made a huge impact on the directions of the activities and the game lost in human resources what is causing discontentment to old residents and disappointment to new ones that find it hard to search for friends and don't know what to do aside listening to music and dancing in clubs just listening to music and attaching the avatar to a pose ball that makes the avatar dance.
Another problem is the new browser (viewer 2) that changed dramatically the display of the world. But it is the browser that is is available now when you subscribe or you can download Emerald that is similar to the old one and has enhanced features.
I just finished my house, my landowner has only two places and is a nice man who works as a bus driver in Las Vegas different from another one I tried before that has sixty places to run and is making a place with shops for VIPs.
The name of my house is Hella Heaven and these pictures are at the garden.
Leave me a comment if you want to visit me there. You are welcome. I can receive you when you start because I work as a mentor for the RHN's (Resident Help Network) group White Tigers that has more than three hundred mentors speaking different languages. Usually RHNs are very nice people whose sole aim is help others not only new residents but others that are facing any difficulty. Addictive? Yes it is a little bit but you have a real life after all. Let's play Barbie!

Van Gogh and Hokusai's tree on blue background
Whenever I look at this van Gogh's painting, Almond Blossom, I think about Hokusai's work.
I don't know if van Gogh saw this printing but it's known that he was influenced by Japanese's art like many of his contemporaries and bought some of them.
Or it's quite a coincidence!

The Day Dream by Dante Gabriel Rossetti - inspired by a Tennyson poem
The Day Dream, 1880, by Dante Gabriel Rossetti, a painter and poet, is inspired by a Tennyson's poem The Daydream.
Rossetti not only did this painting but also wrote a sonnet that is inscribed on the frame:
"The thronged boughs of the shadowy sycamore
Still bear young leaflets half the summer through;
From when the robin 'gainst the unhidden blue
Perched dark, till now, deep in the leafy core,
The embowered throstle's urgent wood-notes soar
Through summer silence. Still the leaves come new;
Yet never rosy-sheathed as those which drew
Their spiral tongues from spring-buds heretofore.
Within the branching shade of Reverie
Dreams even may spring till autumn; yet none be
Like woman's budding day-dream spirit-fann'd.
Lo! tow'rd deep skies, not deeper than her look,
She dreams; till now on her forgotten book
Drops the forgotten blossom from her hand."
I took this pictures at Second Life in a exhibition of many artists and this is the Rossetti section. Click to enlarge to see it. At the right side there are three of Rossetti's paintings. Left, my avatar.

Work in Progress a 3D image by unknown: Geography while adolescent
Sometimes I stumble at forums and find some interesting images. I felt like sharing this 3D I just found here by someone whose nick is Janus in 2007.I love maps, globes and during adolescence spent time looking at them not only trying to memorize the countries but also with amazement and the constant feeling of how big this world is.
However for a couple of hours it seemed I was a little more close to all humankind.
I still do it from time to time but my mind have other thoughts.

The wine sunset: we never get enough of images
I was thinking about how easy today is to find images of no matter what subject and if is it possible to get tired of all of these numerous images we are exposed daily.I decided to search for "sunset" at google and found this photography at Vinography: a wine blog. Andy Katz is the photographer and I really loved this colour in a sunset.
We live in a image culture and it seems we are far from not being surprised by them.
