LOTUS LANTERNS---EARTHQUAKE 8-29-11

Basically, they are colored paper lanterns made with wire and colored paper. You unfold the lotus petals into whatever shape you like, light the little tea-light in the middle and let ‘em float.

Buncha things I really like about ‘em:


They're reusable. The tea-light will burn for hours and hours. Just put a new tea-light in the little holder and use the Lotus Lantern again.


They're new and have a definite cool factor. Not many people have seen or used these before. You WILL be the first on your block.


They're versatile. Use them in swimming pools, ponds, lakes, rivers, bays, even the ocean, if it's still.


They're elegant. They will add a special touch to any evening affair. My girlfriend steals them from me, because she likes how romantic they are. (And I thought it was me!) When we cook out, she surrounds the table and our grilling area with them.


We only got a few of these in from China, because I wanted to see what you think of them, before we stock them permanently.

Three Weeks Magazine Review of We See Fireworks

Upon entering the room, lit by faded iridescent light bulbs, you instantly find yourself embedded inside someone else’s vibrant reminiscence; ‘We See Fireworks’ is an unimaginable, enchanting collection of precious and personal memoirs. All 300 voices welcome the listener, to share their story, which is extremely moving as they are often private or once-in-a-lifetime experiences. All the memories relate to theatre and explore the idea of ‘performance’ and how people relate to it. The glowing and fading light bulbs become mesmerising, as you listen to stories of love, fear, woe, hope, longing and contentment. Then they fade and you are left in darkness with other people’s experiences lingering around you. A truly unique, inspirational and poignant piece of work.

Rating 4/5

Mary Brennan of The Herald reviews We See Fireworks

Maybe a memory of it will fetch up, along with the other confiding voices in Helen Cole’s haunting, absorbing installation, We See Fireworks. It sound simple. Various light bulbs dangle overhead. Unseen, unidentified strangers volunteer taped memories of performances – some staged, while others were moments of a personal nature – that combined and heightened into a recollected theatricality. You listen. Bulbs flare collectively or dwindle into lone flickerings. And the power of stories – secrets, in many cases – seizes you, makes you hungry for more. Not least when, as happened, I heard a guy speak feelingly about a show I’d seen and reviewed. I saw the stars I’d awarded it, not just the fireworks ... I’d love this to tour all around Scotland.

Be well, do good work and keep in touch

I can't believe I am writing this until almost one month later. But here it is.



I had a great time in Kauai. The meeting was super exciting. The scenary could not be better.



I want to thank April Zack for her coordinating of the blogging and her behind-scene editing of all the posts.



With my supervisor Alexei Sokolov's support I could not do any of this.



My husband helped me with kids as with all the other conferences. I appreciate his constant support.



I don't think I will do blogging anymore. It is simply impossible to combine it with attending talks, giving a talk and with a family around you. Last year at UP I was only presenting a poster so I had more time posting. I apologize for the short and delayed blogs I wrote this year. It was constantly on my mind though. I take it seriously.



Overall it was a lot of fun.



I will borrow Garrison Keillor's sign-off from his Writer's Almanac as a way of bidding farewell for a while: Be well, do good work and keep in touch.

What is the highest harmonics number ever created up to date?

Sorry for the belated post but I felt the urge of writing about the wonderful talk On Thursday the planary session by professor Margaret Murnane:



NLO from 2 w to 5100 w in 50 years.



(It was original titled "Nonlinear Optics at the Timescale of the Electron – Bright

Coherent Attosecond-to-Zeptosecond KeV X-Rays". I like the new title much more.)



I alway enjoyed her talks. I noticed during her talk she used the word "beautiful" many times, which showed her strong passion toward her work.



Indeed, this year they sucessfully generated 6-cycle FWHM, 3.9 micro meter 20-Hz, multi-mJ pulses from a novel optical parametric chipred pulse amplifcation architecture, which has the higest pulse energy from a femtosecond mid-IR source to date. (Optics letters Vol. 36 page 2755 2011, published a few weeks before the NLO meeting).



With this laser, full phase matching of HHG in the KeV region of th spectrum (up to the 5031th order) is possible. (CLEO 2011 postdeadline and 2011 NLO papers).



She mentioned that 5th and 7th HHG was dircovered by accident in 1987. I wonder what those people would think of her achievement of producing several thousands of harmonics today?



The broadest coherent supercontinuum they generated support transform limited 2.5 attoseocnd pulse duration, scalable to zeptosecond time scales (1 zs=10 to the minus 21 s).



Below is a picture of the laser-like x-ray beam which I found from the 2011 CLEO postdeadine paper:







By the end, she mentioned the exciting application of the X-ray as the ideal probes of the nanoworld. It can also be used for coherent lensless imaging.

A Memory (Anonymous)

Bristol. June 09

I think it was this year. I had to go and see my girlfriend to say I was going to be late home. I was in an enclosed space with a piano and a kind of upside down barber’s mirror. It was a really interesting space. Anyway I was talking, and they kind of closed the space, and I was stuck in there.  And I really did not have any time for live art. I really did not have any time for it at all. I wanted to leave, but I had to stay because it was disrespectful to leave the performance. And it was stunning.

This guy came in and he moved the full weight of the piano onto himself, and played this gorgeous song. It was quite pointed, not an ‘oh-I-love-you’ song, but an ‘I-am-going-to-miss-you-but-I-will-be-fine’ sort of thing.  The piano was really heavy, and it seemed to be crushing him, and there seemed to be this kind of struggle that was coming from him holding the piano. But the struggle gave the song much more poignancy. It was actually really positive and uplifting, and I felt desperately privileged to be there. It was beautiful, and I think that for about 3 days, maybe a bit more, the performance was my first thought. It just stayed with me, especially the song. It inspired me to move on. He really got deep inside me. It showed his strength, to hold this piano up. Like it was right on top of him. Every sinew in his body was stretched to the limit, and he had to pause between lines to get his breath back and to sing. I have never forgotten it.

A few soundbites from those who have seen fireworks...

'We were sat there really, really high up and I just have this memory of watching 40 odd performers on stage all moving in complete, perfect unison.  There was 50 or 60 rows of people in front of me, but I can still smell their sweat and hear their breath.'

'I walked into a car that came from Liverpool I think, and I really didn’t know what to expect….  And there was this man in the car and he offered me a sweet and he talked to me about, about the death of his brother…

'I wonder how many memories I have of shows I haven’t actually seen.'

'I saw a strong person, a lovely person, break on stage and even if it was pretend, it was heart-wrenching.'

'Walking the stage and gazing. Staring at the audience, daring them to do something….'

'And the last light goes out and there’s such a vacuum-like loss at the end that seems to suck everything into it, it’s like a star imploding or something.'

'You find yourself laughing and all of a sudden you don’t know why you have been laughing at all.'

'….like someone was stroking your soul…'
