Time lapse photograph of the Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte, Maincy, France, 2021

Built between 1658 and 1661 for Nicolas Fouquet, Marquis de Belle Île, Viscount of Melun and Vaux, the superintendent of finances of Louis XIV, the château was an influential work of architecture in mid-17th-century Europe. At Vaux-le-Vicomte, the architect Louis Le Vau, the landscape architect André Le Nôtre and the painter-decorator Charles Le Brun worked together on a large-scale project for the first time. Their collaboration marked the beginning of the Louis XIV style combining architecture, interior design and landscape design. The garden's pronounced visual axis is an example of this style.

When visitng the chateau last weekend it was turned into an enchanting and fairytale-like castle with thousands of sparkly and colorful lights. It is christmas festivities like these that add an excessive garishness or sentimentality to an already lavish but perfectly balanced piece of baroque architecture. This extra layer of extravagance enables one to get some idea of what it must have been like for people back in the day to lay eyes upon the chateau for the very first time during the festivities of its grand opening in 1661.

As so often is the case with my work, this photograph wouldn’t have been possible if it weren’t for the inspiring music of Jean Michel Jarre, - especially his 45 minute track “Waiting for Cousteau” - and Nils Frahm - in particular his brilliant live performance of “Says”.

2/2…or #Spacetime if you prefer. Unfortunately they look different and possibly are from somewhere else. Also interestingly they seem to be becoming less and less reticent about demonstrating those performance capabilities to our latest detection technologies.At this point the evidence is hard to ignore. We probably don’t need a new accelerator. All of the challenges in this current situation encompass our inability to get over ourselves, literally.

So uh I think I may have found a clue how to solve quantum gravity. Or at the very least explain what exactly causes gravity.

I need an expert on that because I sure as heck ain't one.

I coded a quick and dirty simulation of it and it actually did end up up producing the predicted result. If there's nothing that makes it inapplicable there should be some merit to it but I lack the formal education to be able to judge.
