What does it mean to confront the shadows of history, especially when those shadows loom as large as the Mask of Sorrow? Looming over the remote city of Magadan in northeastern Russia, the monument serves as a jarring reminder of the countless lives shattered by Soviet oppression.

The sculpture was built in Magadan, around 320 kilometers from the Dneprovsky labor camp1, the best-preserved site in the Kolyma Gulag network where prisoners were processed and sent to forced labor camps.

The massive monument was constructed on...

In the lively city of San Francisco, along the beautiful waterfront, stands a unique installation that blends science and art like nothing else seen before. This artwork is called the Fog Bridge, a creation by artist Fujiko Nakaya, permanently installed at the Exploratorium’s waterfront location.

Где купе и хэтчбеки за обозримые деньги?

С тех пор, как я год назад поменял машину, я стал поглядывать, какие они бывают. Разблокировался фоновый интерес, да и Ютюб нет-нет, да подкидывает какие-то обзоры. До этого-то я 12 лет ездил на лучшем Опеле в мире и забот не знал.

И я заметил две вещи. Во-первых, в районе 3 млн рублей есть много всяких джипов, но вообще нет купе и хэтчбеков. Есть даже «бизнес-седан» Джили Префейс! Но почему нет машин поменьше с тем же фаршем? Хотя бы даже за столько же денег! Казалось бы, просто меньше металлолома с собой возить, ну сам бог велел сделать?

И ещё я заметил, что существуют машины за 3 млн без подогрева руля. Это вообще как? Какой смысл такие машины делать? Причём всякий трёхмерный обзор камерами по всему периметру — это пожалуйста,...

Takasaki Masaharu – Kihoku Astronomical Museum, 1995, Kihoku, Kanoya City, Kagoshima, Japan

Resembling a UFO for many who see it for the first time, the Kihoku Astronomical Museum is one of Japan’s most peculiar and eccentric buildings.

Conceptualized by Takasaki Masaharu, the museum was constructed in a remote location to cut the observatory off from the urban chaos and better root it in the earth. The isolation also helps to better observe the stars, which allowed Takasaki Masaharu to live up to his nickname: the architect of the cosmos.
