Signals

"...it seems that something new is emerging on our planet. It is true that technical progress in modern times has linked men together like a complex nervous system. The means of travel are numerous and communication is instantaneous - We are joined together materially like the cells of a single body, but this body has as yet no soul. This organism is not yet aware of its unity as a whole. The hand does not yet know that it is one with the eye."

-Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, pilot and author of The Little Prince

Where did you take this picture? Was it in Brazil on your journeys there? It is indeed relevant commentary that you have posted.

Hi, Sunil.

This picture was taken locally, on a rooftop in Greenpoint, Brooklyn.

OK, you got me on that one. ;-)
I would never have guessed.
Thanks
