Marco Cevoli’s Post

Il "Mappamondo di Fra Mauro" translated to English and Chinese. Museo Galileo published a webpage (link in the comments) with an interactive exploration of the world map created by Fra Mauro around 1450 AD. It shows the cosmographic and geographic space, highlighting different parts of the world, the locations visited by Marco Polo, legendary places, and a lost treatise on cosmography. You can browse the world map, read an historical introduction and find all referenced places from a comfy ui. #straight2thepoint #effectivecommunication #qsystem ❤ Thanks for sharing! ⬇ Suggest a topic in the comments. 🔥 View my recent posts: https://lnkd.in/dF52Y48x

This video is only 5 days old. My comment: I propose an amended Holographic Principle. Two sides of the same coin. Dual-principles, an Invisible/Holographic Principle! The Holographic Principle works well in a universe, the bulk and the brane, but there are two horizons of the cosmos; a holographic horizon and an invisible horizon bounded to our universe and connected to the multiverse beyond our cosmic horizon. A duality within a duality! A Holographic Principle of the universe and an invisible Principle inverse to the holographic principle, an invisible/Holographic Principle of the Multiverse! Landauer's Principle of information conservation fully extended to space itself. Wherever space itself disappears, it must reappear somewhere else! You can make space invisible, not just the object it conceals! Portals! https://lnkd.in/eUFiNDye

Imagine a wallpaper that embodies the unity of the universe through a minimalistic approach, yet captures a sense of spaciousness and surrealism reminiscent of Salvador Dali's work. In the center, there is an abstract object that symbolizes unity, perhaps resembling interconnected orbits or a harmonious blend of celestial bodies. This object is set against a vast, open cosmic background that conveys a deep sense of the infinite universe. The color palette is restrained, using mostly dark hues with hints of vibrant colors to highlight the central motif. Elements of Dali's style, such as melting clocks or distorted perspectives, subtly integrate into the scene, adding a dream-like quality. The overall composition is serene and thought-provoking, inviting the viewer to contemplate the interconnectedness of all things in the universe. #CosmicUnity #SurrealSpaces #DaliInspired #AbstractUniverse #CelestialHarmony #InfiniteCosmos #DarkHues #VibrantMystique #DreamlikeSurrealism #SereneContemplation #InterconnectedOrbits #MinimalistUniverse

Marco Brambilla's new project Approximations of Utopia, presents a vision of a future world fair reimagined from archival imagery using AI technology. Featured as part of the Midnight Moment digital art program @tsqarts in Times Square, the work will be displayed, from June 1st-30th nightly from 11:57 PM to 12:00 AM across 95 screens simultaneously. Presented in collaboration with @queensmuseum and @artnet. Each architectural-algorithmic resurrection represents not only the spirit of that nation and society but also the aspirational dreams and desires from that moment in time. The journey through these dynamic collages of the past leads the viewer to a yet unrealized Expo in the works, unbound from geography or time. This idealized speculation, like any utopia, is an imagined community and society of a future filled with the possibility of a meaningful, peaceful life and civilization. #MarcoBrambilla #ChristopherGrimesProjects #ApproximationsofUtopia #TimesSquare #WorldExpo

Serial Stardust-Light Margarida Sardinha Studio “Infinite consciousness held in itself the notion of a unit of Time equal to one-millionth of the twinkling of an eye: and from this evolved the time-scale right up to the epoch consisting of several revolutions of the four ages, which is the lifespan of one cosmic creation. Infinite consciousness itself is uninvolved in these, for it is devoid of rising and setting (which are essential to all time scales), and devoid of a beginning, middle and end.” - Valmiki in Yoga-Vasishtha [72] Serial Stardust – Light comprises a three multichannel video facade projection, formally presenting numerous orbits of concentric circles (ellipses) in perspective building two simultaneous cones, as a symmetrical simulation of sand flowing in an hourglass. By resembling hourglass’s sand marking time as past and future lightcones, the work explores the relative world-lines of the Sun, Moon, planets, diverse fauna and flora, in a light installation of perspectival optical illusions. A serial composition of random relativistic time dilation world-lines in which multiple sand-light clepsydras with different temporal durations are visualized as orbits in perspective forming several Minkowski light cones using elements (ellipses) of the Apollonian cone. At astronomical and quantum levels, as well as in natural elements, the illusion of time present, past, and future, is revealed by merging binary temporal and atemporal notions of spacetime continuum relative to cognitive consciousness and cycles of natural growth within the dilation of one minute of temporal evolution. The installation is complemented with single light projections onto natural features in which a single light clepsydra is projected as marking the relative temporal cyclic span of a given natural element such as a tree or a stone. Serial Stardust – Light is an animation video-light installation produced by Margarida Sardinha in 2024 for Calculating in the Sand art residency at André Sier’s Arte Código association in Santarém. #serial #stardust #light #installation #projection #relativity #worldline #digitalart #hourglass #time #illusion #optics #margaridasardinha #lightcone

1852 PERCEIVER and OBJECTS in SPACE -Gautam Shah  https://lnkd.in/dEGq8fEc Relevance of the space emerges for the self (perceiver), from the position, location, connections, scale and personal physiological, needs, condition and the past experiences. Relevance of the space continuously varies with the changes in the environment and how it affects the objects. There is a triad of relationships, ‘other objects’, perceiver and the environment. These always occurred as a collective happening, called the space.

🗺️ Logarithmic Map of the Universe by Artist Pablo Carlos Budassi (2024) 🌌 🔭 "This artistic, data-based representation of the Observable Universe was developed and published by Pablo in 2012 and has undergone various updates until 2024. It is a circular diagram that shows in detail astronomical objects of various distances and sizes thanks to the use of a logarithmic scale. The solar system is located in the center. Towards the edges, the scale is progressively reduced to show in detail the most distant and biggest structures of the observable universe sphere." 🪐 ☀️ We typically think linearly: where the Sun is ~10,000 times farther away than Earth’s diameter. But cosmically, logarithmic scales — where each multiplicative factor of “10” defines another mark on our cosmic ruler — serve us far better. 🌍 The Earth, at nearly 13,000 kilometers (8,000 miles) in diameter, is tiny compared to the cosmic distances between the Earth-and-Moon or, more spectacularly, the Earth-and-Sun. 🤩 But a logarithmic scale gives us a vastly different perspective, enabling us to reckon with disparate distance scales in a single visual image. 🌐 Thanks to artist Pablo Carlos Budassi for creating this brilliantly illustrated cosmic journey. 🪩 #space #datavisualization #insights

We would like to introduce the Heritage Digital Archive Center, an independent research institute affiliated with Wipco Ltd. This institute is dedicated to systematically researching, recording, and preserving domestic and foreign cultural heritage. Skilled researchers in each field utilize advanced equipment such as 3D precision scanners and laser scanners to turn cultural heritage into a database using the most scientific methods. Based on this, we have developed content that can be used in various fields, contributing to expanding the cultural heritage base. Once cultural heritage sites are destroyed or damaged, it is challenging to restore them. Hence, our efforts are crucial in ensuring their preservation. In this video below, we showcase #Cheomseongdae, one of the oldest astronomical observatories in Asia, which is over 1,300 years old and located in Gyeongju, #Korea. This astronomical observatory was used to predict seasonal changes and weather for the country's agriculture in the past and has symbolic significance. The observatory was constructed using approximately 360 granite bricks, forming a cylindrical shape. It is 9.4 m high and 6.09 m in diameter at the bottom, consisting of 27 layers of stone. At the top, there is a two-story ceiling stone that forms the shape of a well in Chinese letter (井). We utilized #Leica's #RTC360 to capture video data of this heritage, which allows us to maintain and preserve it for a more extended period in the future. Through our efforts, we contribute to promoting Korean cultural heritage to the world as well as world cultural heritage to Korea. We hope you continue to show your interest in our work and hope you come to our YouTube channel as well.
