'Cityscape creator'
At first I thought that this aluminium item used to be a tool for designing the cityscapes back in the sixties. A very simple tool that would give architect an insight of how skyscrapers would look after they were built. It caught me by surprise to learn that it is not.
Back then human imagination started to grow through science fiction and big dreams of progress. This work of art called 'Reliefmeter' is a product of big dreams of the future that couldn't be matched by the technology of the time.
I could even be so bold to compare it with 3D programs we casually use today for designing everything. It must've been seriously cool to make something like this way back then. It does remind of a real-life urban 3D model, doesn't it?
It is interesting that, from today's perspective, Reliefmeter can be used merely as children's toy. Not for long because these days, due to the influence of technology in everyday life even children have short attention span.
Be as it may, all art needs to be put in perspective of time it was made in. The author Vjenceslav Richter did a pretty good job. The piece looks especially interesting when we point a strong backlight at it.
Enjoy your day! :-)

When we like motorcycles we suddenly will be reunited with the community, when we love bonsai suddenly we are met with bonsai community. That is, also in our minds.
If we imagine many ghosts, we will be more easily reconciled with ghosts in our lives. When we imagine mystical power, it will not escape our lives with the mystical worlds, the heresies that are close to our lives ...
Conversely, when our minds are imagining many dreams of the future, all our life energy flows there. Now think about it. When we complain, berate, swear, blaspheme and others we are actually releasing negative energy into the universe. Approximately who will get closer to us what is it? Something positive for our lives or negative? The answer lies with ourselves. Remember, the universe will respond to similar energy.
your cityscape photography always perfect and orginal.its obviously your high thought quality knowledge skills..my dear friend @velimir just heart touching photogragraphy you capture today.. , when our minds are imagining many dreams of the future, all our life energy flows there. Now think about it. When we complain, berate, swear, blaspheme and others we are actually releasing negative energy into the universe. Approximately who will get closer to us what is it? Something positive for our lives or negative? The answer lies with ourselves. Remember, the universe will respond to similar energy. Constantly there are new and new toys and children's attention is constantly in search. The consumer society affects all segments of the population, from small children to adults. Often at least earlier you could hear - "Mom buy me this toy!". But now the virtual world rules the ball.I got acquainted with the work of Vyamenslav Richter and I liked what he was doing. Art is something that will live forever.thanks to sharing for your awesome creativity..very well done.take care yourself and best of luck of your great work.
At first glance it seemed to me like a mock-up of buildings. Also, I remember in one of their films, I saw a similar technology which thus created a 3D model of the seabed relief. Nevertheless, it has not become widespread in our day. Modern technologies are in the process of constant development. And what seemed promising before, now it's become obsolete technology.
You made an interesting statement about the fact that modern children have a short time span. This is indeed so. Constantly there are new and new toys and children's attention is constantly in search. The consumer society affects all segments of the population, from small children to adults. Often (at least earlier) you could hear - "Mom buy me this toy!". But now the virtual world rules the ball.
I got acquainted with the work of Vyamenslav Richter and I liked what he was doing. Art is something that will live forever.
Thank you
Wonderful photography of cityscape creators sir @velimir, yeah it not easy to built these large building at all, it a hardwork of 100 of engineers, they first make the sketch on the paper and computer then they examine the situation, whether it is applicable or not.
what they are thinking and trying to make, is possible or not, then they start it and after hardwork of month, even years they create big building and in these buildings we work or we live, i want to salute their efforts and thank you velimir for showing us this piece of art, you are great.
This is so cool !!!
