The images you see below (in the other post) are subject to the current research i'm developing surrounding "a baroque culture of special effects" (taken from a theory developed by a scholar on the history of science, Michael John Gorman, Stanford University), on the magical machines of 17th century Athanasius Kircher. And the other, me... hovering above the Mexico City skyline during the production of Eduardo Abaroa's "Stonehenge Sanitario".... I will put up a picture of that public art work soon...
