Google maps - traficul in Bucuresti live

Daca tot am postat ieri un site pentru transportul public astazi e randul soferilor sa primeasca un cadou. Dupa trafficguide.ro apar si pe Google Maps informatiile despre traficul bucurestean.

Acoperirea este mult mai mare ca  la trafficguide dar accuratetea datelor e mult mai mica (din cat am observat eu azi). Totusi astazi este deabia prima zi. Sa le dam o sansa si celor de la Google.

Oricum asta inseamna ca orice ruta calculata de gmaps in bucuresti va include acum si estimarea traficului, timpul pierdut, si alternative. Not bad.

OK Go - Needing/Getting - Official Video

The new music video from OK Go, made in partnership with Chevrolet. OK Go set up over 1000 instruments over two miles of desert outside Los Angeles. A Chevy Sonic was outfitted with retractable pneumatic arms designed to play the instruments, and the band recorded this version of Needing/Getting, singing as they played the instrument array with the car. The video took 4 months of preparation and 4 days of shooting and recording. There are no ringers or stand-ins; Damian took stunt driving lessons. Each piano had the lowest octaves tuned to the same note so that they'd play the right note no matter where they were struck. For more information and behind-the-scenes footage, see http://www.LetsDoThis.com and http://www.okgo.net. Many thanks to Chevy for believing in and supporting such an insane and ambitious project, and to Gretsch for providing the guitars.

Planurile autostrazii suspendate

Autostrada urbană, după cum a fost numită oficial, va avea trei tronsoane și 50 de kilometri. Primul, cel de Nord, este cuprins între Lacul Morii și Șoseaua Colentina și va avea o lungime de 16,8 kilometri. Al doilea, de Sud-Vest, este proiectat pe o lungime de 17,4 km și va fi cuprins între Lacul Morii și Șoseaua Giurgiului. Ultimul, de Sud-Est, va avea 16,3 km și va închide inelul, fiind cuprins între Șoseaua Colentina și Șoseaua Giurgiului. Autostrada va fi construită pe trei niveluri: suprateran, subteran și la nivelul solului. Potrivit studiului de prefezabilitate, costul primului tronson al autostrăzii a fost estimat la 826 milioane de euro.

Deocamdată, Primăria a atribuit contractul pentru realizarea PUZ și studiu de fezabilitate pentru primul tronson.Cele cinci firme câștigătoare vor primi aproximativ 8 milioane de euro.

Ce este foarte interesant e faptul ca se vede si pe unde intra autostrada A3 in Bucuresti. (pe la Dragos prin curte se pare)

insulindeplein automatic car park - paul de ruiter architects:

Sunt atat de simplu de realizat si totusi nu le gasim si pe la noi.

'insulindeplein car park' by amsterdam-based office paul de ruiter architects is the first
fully automated car park in rotterdam, the netherlands. the design features a street level
pavilion-esque structure with two separate entrances. providing space for over 140 cars,
the underground park is fully operated by a 'parking robot'. by utilizing a mechanical
distributor rather than providing circulation space, the car park is able to accommodate
one-third more cars than in a traditional setup.

the pavilion features a transparent facade, offering a view of the square from the car park
and vice versa. made completely out of glass, the treatment provides a subtle mirroring effect,
merging the structure with its surrounding by day, and becoming a light-filled lantern by night.

besides freeing up the streets of parked cars, the advantage of building an underground
and fully automated facility are many: it saves on energy cost (lighting and climate control)
since it is not occupied by people; the space about the car park can be developed into
a square with green space and a playground.

Explozie detaliata

currently on show as part of the 17th biennale of sydney is cai's 'inopportune: stage one' (2004), one of his most challenge and spectacular presentations. the installation is comprised of nine identical white cars, which appear to be arrested in an animated sequence of explosion.
together the vehicles are frozen in an arc of detonation, blast, launch, tumbling, gravitational return and rest. the cars are pierced with pulsing rods of light that simultaneously suspend the cars like wings, penetrating them like blades, signifying a co-existence between violence and beauty.
