Conversations would become a little boring... Your presentation sounds as if it was interesting :-) The mention of art and war in the same context reminded me of this article (Pages 18-20) - Battlefield Banksies: https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/39672/DEFENCE_FOCUS_ISSUE__266_DEC_2012_JAN__2013.pdf You are in good company, Andrew disagrees with most of my ‘Thoughts for the Week” ;-)

I am a disagreeable old chap. :) So with some pleasure I disagree with the great Leonardo, a man I have always admired as many do. Nature is highly complex and it did not stop him trying to emulate a great deal of it, inventing highly complex machines for the age. A a great effort he made too. I recall at Uni doing a seminar presentation of Leonardo. It was an 'art' course but I focussed on the artistry of his inventions, particularly his war machines. It went down quite well even though I had to perform a few verbal inventiveness of my own linking artistic concepts to war. Hahahaha. Your photo series is a wonder itself.
