FINALLY FOUND IT!

Every previous visit to the University of British Columbia campus immediately west of Vancouver, I have forgotten to look for this Labyrinth.

Today, I visited UBC for the purpose of breaking my Ramadan Fast by attending the Muslim Students’ Association 2018 Annual Iftar, and then blogging about it on my other project’s website 30Masjids.ca.

Spent last night and this morning touring 3 of the Favelas in Rio…

The movie ‘City of God‘ is right on the money.

Scaringly so.

There are no police here,

Only a Country within a Country with its own rules and self-government.

My ‘Ward Council‘ with neighbourhood Councillors is a reality here.

Gleaning fascinating insights on how Regent Park and Lawrence Heights redevelopment was completely out of touch with those most affected by big money development.

Will blog my thoughts before the Weekend’s out.

HiMY in Rio.

T.V. Rots Your Brain – Elevator passing floors 3 5 7

I was in an elevator this past winter in one of the office towers which inhabit the concrete canyons of Toronto’s financial district.

The panelling of the windows on each of the four sides (once the doors were closed) of the elevator were slightly off, causing a visual ripple and infinity effect.

I took three photographs and used autostitch freeware to create the mirror image you see.

Of note, is that each of the three prominent reflections of the floor number, they are different, showing ‘3’, ‘5’, ‘7’, hence the title of the photograph.

“My other nightmare is that of the mirror.

“The two are not distinct, as it only takes two facing mirrors to construct a labyrinth.

“I remember seeing, in the house of Dora de Alvear in the Belgrano district, a circular room whose walls and doors were mirrored, so that whoever entered the room found himself at the center of a truly infinite labyrinth.”

— Jorge Luis Borges, “Nightmares,” Seven Nights, 1984, pg. 29.
