Thinking about imagination

Imagination is a tool for artists, who is painter, writer or does this person make any kind of form of art. Artist can make real portraits of something, but this person can also make synthetic art, what means to make images from mind to visible to other people. Imagination is a simulation of the thing, what will be forming on the canvas or paper. Synthetic simulation means that artist compies images from the mind to the platform. In the world of ar the picture what the artist copies to paper are an impression or thesis about things, what the artist thinks and feels. The ability to copy the image from mind to paper makes the artist, and some artists are slower than other. When we are thinking about two famous painters, Pablo Picasso and Paul Cèzanne, we always hear that Chèzanne was the very slow painter, who painted one of his work ”Table, napkins and fruit” we always hear about the story how those vegetables rotten during the session. 


Somebody says that Chèzanne did not have technical skills to make those paintings, but I must sometimes disagree with that opinion. Chèzanne was the very sharp painter, and I think that the slow cycle of working might cause that this man was the perfectionist. Many painters are that kind of persons. Everything must be like the artist wants, and if there would be some differences between the thing, what the artist wants and what this person gets, the thing must be done again and again, until the result will satisfy the artist or master. The artist must investigate the things about the object for creating the perfect form, and to become a master, the artist must make many theses, what is like the road to the terminus. This is visible in many portraits, what Paul Chèzanne made about the Mont Saint Victoire mountain.  


As Picasso or some other artist sais, the art is like a bridge to their mind. This is the secret of the art. Many artists are some kind of weird persons, and they want to be different than others. When we are thinking about the life of Picasso and other famous artists, we must say that those persons made the choice, what might be very hard to explain to their families. Even today is sometimes very difficult to tell at home, that person wants to be an artist. Many people justify those persons because they were and are different than they are. And there are of course many persons, who think that there will be the cheap and effective way to handle those persons. That is the mental hospital, where people would change to ”normal” by the doctors and medicals. 



When we think about productivity and the people, who make creative work, we must notice, that many of those people have epilepsy, and this symptom might have the connection with the creative personality. When we are talking about mental hospitals as a community, we must understand that those institutes offer an environment, where the patient process together for acting like abnormal way. And in that environment, some artists were like effloresce and start to create their own way to show people their skills and wonderful thinking, what is captured in many paintings from the masters, who have lived centuries ago. Those people will transmit us, what kind of place was some mountain or village at the time, there were no photographs or videos.

Chinese innovations and space lasers are interesting combinations.

Above: "Tiangong is China's operational space station located in low Earth orbit. (Image credit: Alejomiranda via Getty Images)" (Scpace.com, China's space station, Tiangong: A complete guide) Chinese are close to making nuclear-powered spacecraft.  Almost every day, we can read about Chinese technical advances. So are, the Chinese more innovative than Western people? Or is there some kind of difference in culture and morale between Western and Chinese societies? The Chinese superiority in hypersonic technology is one of the things that tells something about the Chinese way of making things.  In China, the mission means. And the only thing that means is mission. That means that things like budgets and safety orders are far different from Western standards. If some project serves the Chinese communist party and PLA (People's Liberation Army) that guarantees unlimited resources for those projects. Chinese authorities must not care about the public opinion.  If we th

Iron Dome is one of the most effective air defense systems.

The Iron Dome is a missile defense system whose missiles operate with highly sophisticated and effective artificial intelligence. The power of this missile defense base is in selective fire. The system calculates the incoming missile's trajectory. And it shoots only missiles that will hit the inhabited area. The system saves missiles and focuses defense on areas that mean something. The system shares the incoming missiles in, maybe two groups. Another is harmless and another is harmful.  Things like killer drones are also problematic because their trajectories are harder to calculate than ballistic missiles. The thing that makes drones dangerous is that they can make masks for ballistic missiles. And even if those drones are slow, all of them must be shot down.  The thing is that the cooperation between drone swarms and ballistic missiles is the next danger in conflict areas. In the film, you can see how drones make light images of the skies. The killer drones can also carry LED li

The innovative shield that protects OSIRIS-APEX can also protect the new hypersonic aircraft.

"NASA’s OSIRIS-APEX spacecraft successfully completed its closest solar pass, protected by innovative engineering solutions and showing improvements in onboard instruments. Credit: NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center/CI Lab" (ScitechDaily, Innovative Engineering Shields NASA’s OSIRIS-APEX During Close Encounter With the Sun) The OSIRIS-APEX probe travels close to the sun. The mission plan is to research the sun. And especially find things that can warn about solar storms. Solar storms are things that can danger satellites at the Earth orbiter. And the purpose of OSIRIS-APEX is to find the method of how to predict those solar storms. Another thing is that the OSIRIS-APEX tests the systems and materials that protect this probe against heat and plasma impacts.  The same technology. The researchers created for OSIRIS-APEX can used in the materials and structures. That protects satellites against nuclear explosions. That means this kind of system delivers information on how to prot
