There are many different ways of doing that tattoo depending on whether you are looking for a bold look or not. When it comes to a geometry tattoo you want it to look perfect so be sure about not only the artist but the design you choose as well.Īnother determining factor on how your tattoo will look is how thick or thin the lines are in the tattoo. If there is even the smallest deviation to the element of lines and dots the whole design could be affected and that’s not what you want when it’s permanent. It’s not your every day tattoo and there’s a certain degree of perfection that is needed to complete a geometric tattoo because it is put together using lines and dots. If getting a geometry tattoo is what you really want, then make sure you have a talented tattoo artist.

![]() ![]() ![]() I wish the exhibition would better illuminate the tragedy of the 1990s and put it into architectural context. This is the type of exhibition, which has lots and lots of layers, ethnic differences, and political changes, which you have to go back to in order to grasp its entire scope. We learn that an earthquake of 1963, which killed more than 1,000 people and demolished 80% of the buildings in New Belgrade in Macedonia, had become an opportunity for rebuilding the city, not only for local architects, but also by such starchitects as Kenzo Tange. Its buildings are impressive and interesting, and its history is interwoven through them and throughout the show. Yugoslavia, which was never behind the Iron Curtain, and which was considered the most liberal of all Socialist countries, celebrated its victory over Fascism, and embraced an amazing movement of tourism. The influences are clear: Le Corbusier, Buckminster Fuller, Marcel Breuer Brutalism Metabolism Modernism. ![]() It examines material which is fresh, surprising, and unknown: a new history is being written. The first show curated by the new Museum’s chief curator of architecture and design Martino Stierli, it comes to explore how the unique geopolitical situation of former Yugoslavia during the Cold War (today – Croatia Kosovo Montenegro Slovenia Serbia Bosnia Macedonia), had been expressed through the built fabric. I found both in the new and fascinating exhibition Toward a Concrete Utopia: Architecture in Yugoslavia, 1948-1980, at MoMA, which I visited this morning. What I really love about viewing an exhibition on architecture is what I can learn about styles, ambitions, technologies, and history and about architecture’s relationship to places, people, and eras. What I really love about exploring architecture is the way it reflects political agenda, nation building, experimentation, social goals. ![]() 8/18/2023 0 Comments Calculus for dummies scribd![]() ![]() Algebra is the passport to studying calculus, trigonometry, number theory, geometry, and all sorts of good mathematics.

The beast is shown in an empty landscape, trapped between two towers. This particular sheet makes Codex Gigas the only medieval manuscript with a full-page portrait of the devil himself. The subsequent pages present a full-scale representation of heaven and the devil. The monk is begging for forgiveness across five entire pages, describing his every sin in detail. This text differs from the rest of the Codex Gigas. And, it is placed just before the depiction of heaven. That belief could support the theory of the monk’s redemption.Ī long list of sinful confessions also finds its place among the pages of the manuscript. The old medieval belief states that it is possible to atone for your sins by copying holy texts. Namely, multiple details scattered across the medieval manuscript indicate a possible guilty conscience lurking behind the author’s mind. Adolphson, via The National Library of Sweden ![]() This translation illuminates another possible theory in which the monk dedicated his life to creating a masterpiece.Ĭlose-up of the Devil, photographed by Per B. In Latin, the word Inclusus means either punishment or voluntary isolation. Hermanus translates as Herman, which stands for the name of the monk. ![]() This detail can either confirm or undermine the previously mentioned legend of the medieval manuscript. In the Codex Gigas, the scribe’s signature reads Hermanus Inclusus. The following morning, the monk presented the Abbot with his work, and his life was spared. He gave his soul away in exchange for a completed book. As the time passed, the monk Herman had no choice but to bargain with his soul. The monk was challenged to create a book that would include all the world’s knowledge, and he was to do it in a single night. Just before the final brick was put in its place, the monk begged for mercy. ![]() The monk was to face immurement, meaning he was to be walled up alive behind the monastery walls. He broke his sacred vows, and therefore, he received a death sentence. Returning to the 13th century in Bohemia, a monk named Herman committed an unforgivable abomination. The Sins of the Monk: The Curse of the Medieval Manuscript Codex Gigas, via The National Library of Sweden The creator’s masterful uniformity remains a phenomenon. However, the scribe’s work shows no signs of aging nor a change in skill or style. Realistically, this medieval manuscript would have required more than twenty-five years of work. The Codex Gigas postcard, 1929, via The National Library of SwedenĮxperts state that the Codex Gigas would have taken over five years of constant writing to complete. However, manuscript specialists claim that this was actually impossible to achieve. Most surprisingly, the continuous uniformity suggests that the creator completed the Codex Gigas in a short period. The experts concluded that this medieval manuscript is the work of a single scribe. Namely, the general nature of the writing is utterly consistent, with no variations in looks or quality. This is mostly because of the imbalance between the book’s comprehensive attention to detail and its massive scope. Experts don’t know the answer to how the book was even composed. Various aspects of the Codex Gigas continue to perplex even the most knowledgeable historians. Colorful illustrations, precise borders, and highly stylized letters continuously attract the attention of readers. The entirety of the text is strikingly illuminated and embellished.

Continuing the journey of inclusion, Valentino Vecchietti of Intersex Equality Rights UK was instrumental in developing the Pride Progress flag design, which included the intersex flag.

Building on previous inclusive flag designs, this updated design aimed to incorporate and recognise intersex individuals.

IN PICS | Rainbows All Over White House As It Celebrates Pride Month Due to manufacturing issues, the flag was later changed to a six-colour version, resulting in the familiar rainbow flag we know today. Each colour represented something symbolic. Harvey Milk, the first openly gay man elected to public office, collaborated with Gilbert Baker in the late 1970s to create the original rainbow-striped flag with eight colours. Before the rainbow flag became popular, these communities used a variety of symbols, including the pink triangle, green carnations, purple handprints, the Greek lambda symbol, blue feathers, and ace playing cards. The rainbow-striped flag, the most popular Pride flag, has been updated in recent years to reflect the intersectional diversity of LGBTQIA2-S communities. A newer version of the pride flag is prominently displayed in this inclusive spirit, symbolising the evolving understanding and recognition of various sexual orientations and gender identities.

Greek and Roman culinary traditions subsequently influenced early British cuisine and nutritional habits (Kiple, et al 2000). The Romans used thyme to add flavor to cheese and liqueurs and considered spice an important ingredient in cooking (Grieve 1998). The cuisine of Europe was heavily influenced by that of the Classical times. The ancients often linked thyme to the sweetness of honey because of the distinct thyme taste in the honey of Mount Hymettus, Greece (Grieve 1998). Hippocrates mentioned the prevalence of thyme as a culinary herb, grown in gardens, and gathered in the countryside (Flandrin, et al 1999). Thyme has a history of culinary use dating back to the Classical Greek period of the 5th and 4th centuries BC. Thymus vulgaris originates from the Greek term thymus, or to sacrifice, and from the Latin word vulgaris signifying common or usual (Tyler, et al 1976). In temperate climates, thyme is cultivated during the summer months, from May to August (Grieve 1998).
