Einstimmige elektronische Musik
Nein, ich meine kein E-Gitarrensolo.
Kürzlich hatte ich das hier schlampig unter „Popmusik“ gepostet, aber das ist doch viel spezieller und eigensinniger, darum noch mal. Ich kenne keine sonstige Musik dieser Art. Fast durchweg einstimmig. Kompositionstechnisch ziemlich schwierige Gattung. Bemerkenswert.
Jonglieren von oben gesehen
3D auf 2D eindampfen, eine Technik, die ich zur Zeit auch anwende.

Pixel Art #1
Länger schon verfolge ich auf mehreren Kanälen künstlerische Arbeiten der #PixelArt. Manche finde ich so toll, dass ich sie ab jetzt öfters hier ins Album einklebe.

Berlin im Frühsommer…
…1910.
The original B&W film has been motion-stabilized, speed corrected, restored, enhanced and colorized by means of special Artificial Intelligence software.
The film shows how beautiful Berlin was before both World wars. It starts with a drive by carriage through the Friedrichstrasse, followed by the Leipziger-strasse, the statue („Denkmal“) for Kaiser Wilhelm-I, the Siegesallee, the Siegessäule with its golden angel on top, a close-up of the statues in relief on its base, a baroc fountain and old Berlin as seen from the water.

Der Ausbau der Berliner S- und U-Bahnen seit 1902
#Heimatgeschichte
The history of Berlin’s rapid transit system, U-Bahn (Untergrundbahn, „underground railway“) and S-Bahn (Stadtschnellbahn, „city rapid railway“), from 1902 to 2021 is shown in this animation.
Notes:
The nomenclature, line colours, and routes of the services, especially for S-Bahn, have constantly changed throughout history. The video only highlights major opening, suspension of the tracks in service and does not show minor name changes, route changes, etc. I did try to capture the route and name changes of the lines as much as possible, but the video may not accurately represent the actual routes of the lines at that time as there are not enough records of these changes. Hence, these changes only happen in the background and are not shown as a separate event.
For the colours, the lines are shown in the colours that are used today unless they were previously part of a different line. (For e.g. current Line U4 was initially green as it was part of Line B, then changed to blue as it was designated as a separate Line 4 in 1966, then changed again to yellow for better visibility. In this video, the colour only changes in 1966 from green to yellow.)
