Nashville Public Library timelapse

With the two previous time-lapses (the Predators arena and the Titans stadium) Electric Picture Company had used 16mm film and an intervalometer. One of the frustrating things about that system was that there was no way of knowing if something was blocking the lens, the film had run out, etc. For the Nashville Public Library time-lapse (1999-2001) we devised a system that used a video camera and a video capture card that could be monitored and adjusted remotely. We were even able to create a website that showed the most recent time-lapse frame captured so that we, and the construction crew, could see the current status of the project. Another advantage to this system was that if something special happened, like the tornado that was captured on the Titans stadium time-lapse, we could adjust the capture rate remotely to see more details of how an event happened.

Average? It's ugly as hell... neo greek/italian massive concrete block. My goodness

Such is the limitations in vision of the people that designed and built this concrete monstrosity! I'm no Green Enviro-warrior, but! the senseless wasting of 1,000's of squares meters of the roof space which could have been used as a living roof, with lawns, trees, solar-panels and rain-water catchment to offset the carbon footprint this took to destroy and rebuild.
