The Sherlock Holmes Museum is the most popular privately run museum in London, dedicated to the legendary detective Sherlock Holmes. It is situated at 239 Baker Street, near the north end of Baker Street in central London close to Regent's Park.
The Georgian town house which the Museum occupies as "221b Baker Street" was formerly used as a boarding house from 1860 to 1936, and covers the period of 1881 to 1904 when Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson were reported to have resided there as tenants of Mrs Hudson. The Museum is run by The Sherlock Holmes International Society, a non-profit making organisation.
In reality, this building had a different street name and number in the days of Holmes's creator, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Even today, the actual street address is 239 Baker Street, and the museum uses the fictional 221B address only by special permission of the City of Westminster.
Nevertheless, this spot is worth a visit, and is a good starting point for fans of Sherlock Holmes when visiting London. |

This was part of the seventeen days my wife Natasia and I had on our European trip in Fall of 2000. We had lived with my parents for several months saving for a home deposit but decided on a European adventure instead. It was worth every penny. |

The British Museum in London, England. Our feet felt like we saw each of the 13 Million objects on display. Very much worth the visit. More than a day trip from Thornbury Castle, and certainly worth the travel! Copyleft music by Laurie Laptop (You can view this video, and other travel videos in full-size and near-DVD quality, travel stills and more at www.jpmeyer.com). Thornbury Castle is part of the von Essen Group of hotels, "a private collection of individual country house hotels in the UK, each with a distinctive style and character of its own" according to www.vonessenhotels.co.uk, but we think of it as Real People having Real Fun! |

The British Museum in London, England is a museum of human history and culture. Its collections, which number more than 13 million objects, are amongst the largest and most comprehensive in the world and originate from all continents, illustrating and documenting the story of human culture from its beginning to the present.[ |

The Victoria and Albert Museum (often abbreviated as the V&A) in London is the world's largest museum of decorative arts and design, housing a permanent collection of over 4.5 million objects. Founded in 1852 as the South Kensington Museum, the V&A has since grown to now cover some 12.5 acres[2] and 145 galleries. Its collection spans 5000 years of art, from ancient times to the present day, in virtually every medium, from the cultures of Europe, North America, Asia and North Africa.
The Cast Courts (originally called the Architectural Courts[1]) of the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, England, comprise two large halls. Unusually for a museum, the Cast Courts house a collection not of originals, but copies. Here are to be found reproductions of some of the most famous sculptures in the world. Most of the copies were made in the 19th century and in many cases the copies have better resisted the ravages of time, 20th-century pollution and over-zealous conservation than the originals.
The Courts were designed by Major General Henry Scott of the Royal Engineers and were opened to the public in July 1873. The Courts are architecturally dramatic: they are large and high, topped by a roof of glass that admits sunlight which is supplemented by electric lights. The two Courts are divided by corridors on two levels; the mid-level corridor allows the Courts to be viewed from above. The Court that includes Trajan's Column also has a high walkway around it at a third level; this walkway is not open to the public. It is said that the proportions of the West Court were informed by the need to display Trajan's column and the imposing Portico de la Gloria.
The West Court predominantly contains casts of Northern European and Spanish sculpture and Trajan's Column. The East Court has casts of Italian monuments. |

Invisible is not so much the name of a band as the condition of most of the things and forces that make up our Universe.
Invisible was a multi disciplinary project created in 2007 by artists/musicians Anna Piva and Edward George, who also record for Berlin's Chain Reaction label as Hallucinator.
With Invisible, Piva and George used data evidence of the existence of dark energy as the basis for a sound art installation in the three telescope domes at Cambridge University's Institute of Astronomy, a school workshop in Cambridge, a film and sound art workshop in Stuttgart, and two performances at the Bernie Grant Arts Centre and the Science Museum Dana Centre in London.
The data, taken from a cluster of galaxies by the name of Abell 2029, was given to the artists by astronomer Dr. Carolin Crawford, the project's key collaborator, running the Cambridge school workshops with the artists, as well as giving talks and presentations on the nature of dark energy, the invisible force which is accelerating the speed at which the Universe is expanding.
Piva and George gave the data to a quartet of musicians: trumpet player Jim Dovorak and sax player Harrison Smith, both veterans and shapers of the UK's jazz and improv scene, and to sitarist Raj Virdee and tabla player Sukhdeep Singh, two highly respected Indian classical musicians.
Jim, Harry, Raj, and Sukh developed a series of approaches to engaging with the data. Piva and George used the data to produce a series of electronic soundscapes, and these were the basis for a series of improv recording sessions and rehearsals, bringing these three space themed music traditions - jazz improv, Indian classical, and electronica together for not so much a fusion as a dialogue, a series of improvisations around a common object, data evidence of dark energy.
From these sessions and with these soundscapes, Piva and George created the music for the sound art installations in the Institute of Astronomy's three telescopes, making the final mixes inside the observational domes, and weaving in early morning environmental sounds from the grounds of the Institute. By the way, all three observational domes are fully functioning: the telescopes are used regularly and were only available for five days.
Piva and George also used versions of the soundscapes as reference points for the live performances. Improvising along with Jim, Harry, Sukh and Raj, weaving into the mix fragments from poems written during the Invisible school workshop, and mixing the whole thing in real time old school pre digital dub style, Piva and George brought scientific data evidence of dark energy into dub space.
The visuals for Invisible are generative design artist Adrian Ward's interpretation of the data: sparse, abstract patterns generated by the cluster of galaxies' light emissions appearing from and disappearing into darkness, interacting live with the sounds generated by the musicians
Invisible is the second part of Music & Science Lovers, Piva and George's cross-disciplinary [art/science/sound/education!] project, the first of which was the installation, sound, and text based project, Astro Black Morphologies/Astro Dub Morphologies (2004-05.
Invisible was funded by Arts Council England. Enjoy!

Here is the second (and final!) part of our visit to the Natural History Museum, South Kensington, London.
The music is "Frozen Star" by Kevin MacLeod www.incompetech.com.
The following info is from Wikipedia ...
Another iconic display is the parallel skeleton and model of a blue whale. The display of the skeleton, weighing 10 tons and some 25m long, was only made possible in 1934 with the building of the New Whale Hall (now the Large Mammals Hall), though it had been in storage for 42 years since its stranding on sandbanks at Wexford Bay. Discussion of the idea of a life-size model also began around this time, and work was undertaken within the Whale Hall itself. Since taking a cast of such a large animal was deemed prohibitively expensive, scale models were used to meticulously piece the structure together. During construction, workmen left a trapdoor within the whale's stomach, which they would use for surreptitious cigarette breaks. Before the door was closed and sealed forever, some coins and a telephone directory were placed inside - this soon growing to an urban myth that a time capsule was left inside. The work was completed - entirely within the hall and in full view of the public - in 1938. At the time it was the largest such model in the world, at 28.3m in length, though the construction details were later borrowed by several American museums, who scaled the plans further.
The Darwin Centre is host to Archie, an 8 metre long giant squid taken alive in a fishing net near the Falkland Islands in 2004. The squid is not on general display, but stored in the large tank room in the basement of the Phase 1 building. On arrival at the museum, the specimen was immediately frozen while preparations commenced for its permanent storage. Since few complete and reasonably fresh examples of the species exist, 'wet storage' was chosen, leaving the squid undissected. A 9.45m acrylic tank was constructed (by the same team that provide tanks to Damian Hirst), and the body preserved using a mixture of formalin and saline solution.
The museum holds the remains and bones of the River Thames Whale that lost its way on 20 January 2006 and swam into the Thames. Although primarily used for research purposes, and held at the museum's storage site at Wandsworth, the skeleton has been put on temporary public display. |

The installation explores the idea that our virtual identity is constantly under threat of attack by a swarm of 'bugs' trying to feed off the fabric of our virtual being. Again the installation is a hyper-painting a mirror that reflects the world of the gallery by transposes it onto a virtual plane, teaming with swarms of parasites. If the viewers are oblivious to their relationship with the world around them, a metaphor for their unguarded virtual identity, then the swarm of bugs will devour them. However, if they are aware of the threat then they are able to move, an arm or a foot for example and influence their environment - swatting away the threat of the insatiable swarm and protecting their identity. Only when we are aware of the threat to our digital identity can we take precautions to protect ourselves.
The exhibition, sponsored by McAfee, ran at the Science Museum in London from November 2005 - January 2006. It then began its tour of Europe, moving onto the USA in late 2006 and running into early 2007. |
