The iconic glass pyramid of the Louvre Museum in Paris.

On a trek across London, I visited the Millenium Dome (the world’s most expensive tent) in Greenwich, which is currently exhibiting some ancient Egyptian relics and artwork etc. Just outside the dome someone had decided that a more modern approach was required to entice people in to see the exhibition… 3000+ years of human progress gave us a brightly painted wooden pyramid and a stainless steel needle with an aesthetically pleasing twist. The major difference of course, is that these works of modern art are only intended to advertise the exhibition and are really quite clever at making a statement. Of course the artists involved were almost certainly given only a few months in which to create their masterpieces, whereas the Egyptian artists were expected to take much longer and probably subjected to .. err.. shall we say, more Intense contractual obligations (you can guess the sort of thing – “Create something worthy of pharaoh the living god… or Die” ). Hmmm .. come to think of it, I’ve had a few commisions like that myself. Lol. Still it did make for an interesting picture and I liked the contrast between ancient and modern, I hope you do too. The Image below illustrates how a framed print would look

To the Nile / Son of the old Moon-mountains African! / Chief of the Pyramid and Crocodile! / We call thee fruitful, and that very while / A desert fills our seeing’s inward span: / Nurse of swart nations since the world began, / Art thou so fruitful? or dost thou beguile / Such men to honour thee, who, worn with toil, / Rest for a space ‘twixt Cairo and Decan? / O may dark fancies err! They surely do; / ‘Tis ignorance that makes a barren waste / Of all beyond itself. Thou dost bedew / Green rushes like our rivers, and dost taste / The pleasant sunrise. Green isles hast thou too, / And to the sea as happily dost haste / By John Keats Acrylics & pigment.

This was in my sons head and is now in three dimensional reality – it is a play on words – My Own Son. The Aztec Mayan symbology is reflected in the mandala : The verdigris and gold pyramids symbolize the steps he will take in his life. / The eagles symbolize his connection with Great Spirit – his totem at birth was the Wedge Tailed Eagle. / The jaguar pawprints symbolize journeying, and the great wild velvet cat that purrs beneath his skin… / The compass points his directions in life – he will walk them all. / The symbols within are Mayan calendar symbols representing his birth time, birth date and other relevant information. / At the centre is the feathered serpent – Quetzlcoatl – twinned. The light and the dark, the good and the bad, life and death are intertwined in symbol. / Heavily jewelled (well, paste LOL) and gilt with gold – my gift to him as he was my gift to me.

This lovely lake is a 30 second view from the freeway just south of “The Grapevine” in California!! If you’ve blinked, then you missed it!! The Lake was named in 1932 after a huge cut in the rock resembled a Pyramid. It is near the Los Padres National Forest and the City of Castaic.

As loans default and foreclosures increase, the lenders have to pay out more and more to hide the losses. But the lenders can only make this up by making more loans, because this is how they increase their cash flow; and now it is clear they can make nore loans, and thereby increase their cash flow only by simultaneously increasing their losses, since their “loans” are proving to be losers. So no one wants their”paper” anymore because-well-it’s the financial equivalent of toxic waste. The “subprime” stuff is just the first surge: the tidal wave is close behind. Because all of it, the subprime, the prime, the AAA and everything in between, is the product of a previously hidden, but now obvious…Ponzi scheme. A Ponzi scheme that is in the process of unraveling, as all Ponzi schemes eventually do. And what person wants to be the last idiot to buy into a Ponzi scheme? From: What the ‘Subprime’ Mess is Really About by John Regan Jr.

The Inverted Pyramid, located at the end of the entrance foyer of The Louvre, Paris. This incredible, huge glass pyramid mirrors the above ground entrance pyramid of the Louvre. It hangs from the ceiling and is utilised as a skylight for one end of the foyer. You can see the above ground area reflected in the glass. I took several photos of this, which is my favourite feature of the Louvre foyer, however, with the amount of people around, it was impossible to get one of the pyramid alone. So I blacked out the background altogether to make a more abstract image of it. Featured in Reflections in Building Windows Canon SX100IS MCN: C3AFE-24837-F9398
