A storm walks east across the plains, my relay counts its nodes, and I spend five years deciding what was holding the waves still.
Tesla's night of 3 July 1899: the receding storm, his stationary waves, the 6 Hz of patent 787,412, and why Schumann's 7.83 Hz is a near-miss.

A barn on a plateau, a coil fifteen metres across, a free coil standing on a driven one, and the long work of finding its pitch.
Tesla's 1899 Colorado Springs notebook: the extra coil as a quarter wave, why a ball on top lowers its pitch, and three ways he measured capacity.

Under the apple trees in Wageningen, the world dissolved into a luminous sea of white blossoms, an abstract symphony of light and delicate petals that made me forget to breathe and brought a profound, quiet sense of being fully alive.

Early Spring in Bergherbos
A forest that dissolves into light: there are moments when the world softens and reality gently slips into something more poetic. During a quiet spring walk in the woods of Bergherbos, Gelderland, I experienced exactly that. What began as an ordinary forest suddenly transformed into an almost abstract painting of lines, light and the very first breath of green.
