"The Cloud Spotter's Guide" by Gavin Pretor-Pinney and
"The Wave Watcher's Companion" by Gavin Pretor-Pinney
With my current eyes, big things, like clouds are a good thing to be interested in. The second is a good introduction to the phenomena of waves, with examples takes from nature. Although much of the book is about ocean waves, just reading it makes me more aware of the waves around me. Waves travel in time so many of the examples in this blog come with movies.
At the entrance to a restaurant in Xinnamen we have a little feng shui to set the mode for dinner. Flowing was has that calming effect, leaving the hectic for the relaxed.
How was this next wave made? I think the cement block was painted with a paint sprayer, the worker had to turn off the machine, but the switch was back at his truck, so he just ran back to the truck and let the nozzle of the sprayer rotate on the rubber hosing. All just speculation after the fact.
Looks a little like a sine wave but it is really a sequence of half circles.
Aquariums bring feng shui and keep out ghosts so there are very elaborate tanks in Taipei. This one has jets of bubbles illuminated with a sequence of LED lighting. Wow, if the ghosts get past this, then nobody is safe.
