  10. this #Crossings LP from #NeumayerStation is superb. It hits the bliss-point between pastoral-ambient and #krautrock. I think this is a sound that #Spiritualized were sometimes reaching for, but it is much more subtle and accomplished. I am hearing #Engineers and all kinds. neumayer-station.bandcamp.com/

  15. Animal friendly infrastructure - Road ecology

    "Some 40 million miles of roadways encircle the earth, yet we tend to regard them only as infrastructure for human convenience. While roads are so ubiquitous they’re practically invisible to us, wild animals experience them as entirely alien forces of death and disruption. , the harms of highways extend far beyond roadkill. "

  16. Most #drivers I encounter at #pedestrian #crossings like this don’t seem to know they only have to wait till I’m at the island. So many wait until I’m all the way across!

    I remember when the rule changed to make this the case! John Campbell did a big story about it.

    (Edit: this is the #NZ Rule, may not be true elsewhere)

  17. "On Friday (Jun 28), the Causeway celebrates its centennial anniversary, having served as a connector across the Johor Straits for 100 years.

    Today it has become one of busiest land crossings in the world, with an estimated 300,000 commuters passing through daily. And this figure is expected to grow with Singapore’s Immigration and Checkpoints Authority projecting traffic volume at the Causeway to increase by 40 per cent by 2050."

  18. I've just seen the movie #Crossings. It is a Swedish, Danish, French, Turkish and Georgian co-production that was shot in #Batumi and #Istambul and features a great cast. It just opened the #goEast #FilmFestival in #Wiesbaden.

    I'd recommend you to go watch it, if you should ever have the opportunity!

  19. Roads are not only for transportation, but also for conservation. A new book by Ben Goldfarb, Crossings, explores how road ecology can shape the future of our planet. He shows how we can design and build roads that minimize harm and maximize benefits for wildlife and humans. #roadecology #crossings #wildlife undark.org/2023/10/13/book-rev
