it definitely puts things in perspective…
The reward for conformity is that everyone likes you but yourself.

The Fibonacci sequence showed mathematically, and in a moderately understandable way for the first time in modern history, the essence of the mystery of Sacred Geometry: the spiral that connects here and there, reconciling the paradox of the energies of Creation, Destruction and Existence. Those who know, understand; those who do not must seek.
Whenever I see spirals in nature in the form of shells, etc., I always just think to myself “patterns and math are all present in nature.. damn”
What a liberation to realize that the “voice in my head” is not who I am. Who am I then? The one who sees that.

Man is the only creature that produces landfills. Natural resources are being depleted on a rapid scale while production and consumption are rising in nations like China and India. The waste production world wide is enormous and if we do not do anything we will soon have turned all our resources into one big messy landfill. But there is hope. The German chemist, Michael Braungart, and the American designer-architect William McDonough are fundamentally changing the way we produce and build. If waste would become food for the biosphere or the technosphere (all the technical products we make), production and consumption could become beneficial for the planet.
A design and production concept that they call Cradle to Cradle. A concept that is seen as the next industrial revolution. Design every product in such a way that at the end of its lifecycle the component materials become a new resource. Design buildings in such a way that they produce energy and become a friend to the environment.
Large companies like Ford and Nike are working with McDonough and Braungart to change their production facilities and their products. They realize that economically seen waste is destruction of capital. You make something with no value. Based on their ideas the Chinese government is working towards a circular economy where Waste = Food. An amazing story that will definitely change your way of thinking about production and consumption. (Excerpt from vpro.nl)
Watch tonight’s solar eclipse live.
There’s a solar eclipse tonight. If you live in an area where you can’t see it (or the weather’s bad) you can watch it live HERE.
