Black, white, and red.
Definitely a standout!
The only thing better is the VW van with the psychedelic hippie colors and fantastical images for hope and love. ;-)

Ocean Waves Electric
Thought this was pretty cool at the Boca Museum of Art.
Electronic Ocean Waves.
Mesmerizing and calming.
And all in bits and bytes.
They also had a display of black and white photos of the ocean waves.
But it was a little too sterile for me.
I like nature and nurture in perfect harmony. ;-)

Graffiti Art
I really love Graffiti Art!
Went to Wynwood Walls in Miami.
The art is just fantastic.
Better than the typical museum.
So creative.
So big.
So colorful.
So full of life.
They took a whole rundown neighborhood and made it cool and great.
On December 5, they will be opening the Museum of Graffiti.
Can't wait to go back and immerse myself in it! ;-)

Ferrari Motor Furniture
The first is a coffee table for the living room.
The second is half of a nice desk.
Both are made out of working Ferrari engines.
The coffee table goes for $50,000.
And the desk goes for $75,000.
I will told that this is a bargain based on what a working Ferrari engine goes for.
In a sense you can take your table for a spin around the block...LOL.
Truly the engine (and not just design of the car) is a work of art.
It merits being a centerpiece of your office or home. ;-)

Artechouse = Art + Tech + House
This place was really cool in Washington, D.C.
Artechouse = Art + Tech + House.
Great immersive technology, art, music, dance, and light show.
Highly recommend it!
This exhibit "Lucid Motion" was by Japanese artist Daito Manabe X Rhizomatiks Research.
They also had a nice augmented reality display.
Had fun with the clan.
Hope you enjoy!

Beautiful Moroccan Chandelier
Thought this really adds life, color, and culture to any room.
I love the mosaic of glass pieces and their vibrant colors and interesting shapes.
Set into the brass holders this stunning chandelier is a standout and lights up not only the room, but also perhaps even our lives. ;-)

Square Watermelons
A square watermelon.
Why do you need a square watermelon?
It was created to make transportation easier and to fit on the tight shelves of small stores in Japan.
How do you make a round/oval watermelon square?
Why of course, you put a box around it while it's still small and on the vine.
Ah, I think they broke the mold on this innovative idea. LOL
The problem is that that because they are harvested before they are ripe, they are inedible.
So the Japanese use them for decorations, and they can last about a year.
They are so unique, they cost roughly $100 for one.
Why be square, when you can be round? ;-)

You're Driving Me Nuts
Homer is mad as h*ll and has Bart by throat!
Bart is screaming for help.
It so funny how art imitates life.
Where people drive others $%#&^*)* crazy.
And the other person just wants to wring their freakin' neck.
Yeah, this never really happens. ;-)

Check Out Those Rims
Pimp my ride! LOL
Check out those awesome gold rims with this blue "oldies" car.
This was definitely a standout even down there where there are plenty of Bentleys and Lamborghinis driving around.
The owner of the car gave me a big thumbs up when I tool this photo.
Hope you enjoy and Shabbat Shalom!

Rainbow Card Display
Instead of postcards in the display holder, they put colored glass.
Then just let the sun shine in and look at the awesome wall display.
Might be fun to swap around to get different patterns and blends.
As a kid, I always used to turn the display to see what just around the bend, in this case you get the disco effect.
Color and light play nice together. ;-)

Where Are We Going
To me, it begs the question of where are we going in our lives.
The terrestrial landscape combined with the light at the end of the tunnel effect as the sky is provocative and at the same time almost hypnotic.
It also makes me feel the enormity of the universe versus the smallness of just a man.
I see myself standing on the red hilltop looking into that big sky and wondering about so many things.
In the end, believing that we don't have all the answers, but that we are in G-d's good hands. ;-)

Beautiful Measurements
It dates back to 1852!
The weights range from 1 gram to 500 grams.
These are weights, but also a form of art.
It is located at the NIST Museum.
There is something comforting about weights, measures, and standards.
It puts an organized construct unto our universe and creates some objective scientific reality to our world.

Magnificent Room Divider
The brilliant colors and the vibrant circular swirls make this outstanding to take in.
So simple in a way, yet it brings so much magnificence to any space.
Staring into this has an almost heavenly effect of traveling through that final tunnel before reaching the heavenly essence of light at the end of it all. ;-)

G-d Is Good
When you are lying back in the chair, look what you see on the ceiling:
G-d Is Good.
The other day we went out to eat with some folks.
And the question came up whether you think most people are good or bad.
Interestingly, most of the people at the table thought either they are predominantly good or at least that they have the potential for good.
Really, it is G-d that is the ultimate good.
And to the extent that we are created in His image and have the opportunity to choose good from evil, then we too can be good.
G-d is inherently good, but man is a toss up based on which direction he goes. ;-)

Tyson's Corner Wall Art
Create your own wall art.
People passing by in the mall, just pull over and start drawing with their fingers in these cool colorful shiny sequin tiles.
One way moves the sequins to one color and the other direction to an alternate color.
Some people went up to draw and then took a picture of themselves next to their artwork.
Everyone loves a little creativity (even in between shopping). ;-)
