it is not safe for our customers, and especially the visually impaired.nything could happen, and it is muni's policy not to double park. normally what i do, if i can safely go in behind, i pull in the zone, offload my customers, load the customers that are waiting for me. when the bus in front of the leaves, i will pull to the front for the customers that did not see me. >> sometimes, the bus pulls up, and there is stuff in my way because the boys -- bus has not pulled up right in front of me. i have to figure out how to get around or through. i have to navigate through all of that in order to get onto the bus. >> when i pick up a visually impaired customers, i like to pull up right in front of them, make sure nothing is in the way so they can walk right on the coach. >> okay, take one big step forward. >> when i drop off a visually impaired customers, make sure you do not pull up at the shelter. you want to give them a straight shot so they can go to the left or the right. you want to pull in front or behind the shelter. never around any trees or pose. i

so it reduces the visual cues. the singular paving surface doesn't distinguish the sidewalk zone, the through way from the street line zone. the image on the right is during the tour looking at the public and the private, the two different paving shows the public is the darker paving and the private towards the building edge is very slick. we looked at many alternatives. we did look at the paving on market street but we also looked on mission street and alley ways. we saw many different types and the focus group provided an assessment for all paving materials as well. brushed concrete with coerce aggregate provided visibility and safety. the edge curb, pedestrian access travel and building edge. so the brush concrete had a texture and what you will see on the right image is a public private, the public you see on the right and the concrete paving and the private on the left, and in fact when we showed up on saturday when it was already wet when it was coming into the building, one of our members, alberto, his crutc

he would think visually. he would always try to think of what he called the tory offer visual thought it weirdness. every great advance he doesn't science is done through a visualized statics bierman. a visualized thought experiment is what you and i called daydreaming. but if you were einstein can eat get to call it a thought experiment. he was also rebellious as a kid. he was always question authority, which isn't something used to do much urban school system when he was growing up in the late 19th century. in fact, because one had mastered to amuse us by saying albert einstein will never amount to much and another had really sent them packing because he undermines respect for authority. i too think that is part of einstein's ability to think out of the box, to be imaginative, to be creative because he was always questioning every premise and always challenging every assumption. his ability to use bank and be curious in a visualized the way. you can see it at age five when his father gives him a compass. ei

so very little of the historic material was actually visual over time. when all this was removed excuse me. this is what's left and what's kind of in the at an excuse me. shows where the outline was basically an non-historic portion of the building and if you can see this is where the roof was attached and where there's penetrations done you have pen tracing for the stairwell access and all those penetrations compromise this wall it came like swiss cheese and the building department was concerned about making sure this was structurally reinforced and reconstituted and also made weather tight. to achieve that goal owners basically recognizing that the north facade would not be seep and if you look at the luxury there's had a line here this is where the new buildings are approved and it would block the remainder of that north facade. so what was done was the north facade elevation was finished in a high quality way but with rustic sidings the corners were maintained and the - including this. this is obvious the west facing bay that's been all restored. in

the visual arts project. it was especially important in san francisco because of dieggo rivera and radicalizing it. this is the coit towers. this was done under cw a. 1934. the wpa wasn't in existence. this is the very first of the relieve projects. harry hopkins said, they have to eat too. the artists should dig ditches like everybody else. this is antonio brinko. millions of americans got to hear live music for the first time. this is the federal theater project. this is maxine albroro. it's been destroyed and one of my favorites done by helen bruten. it's to remind us, while i was looking at these projects, they employed 42 percent women. it's very unusual in the art world. and then of course, in san francisco, benny lafono. we had the first and the last of the new deal. coit tower is the first. it is i think, one of the best in the country. it shows san francisco's history and that of human civilization shown through the eyes of labor. these are things that happened in san francisco's history. lynchings.

he has a balcony and a deck that has visual into our bedrooms for the local citywide and this mansion calls into question the awe authenticity to our street. this is a picture of the back of our homes. his home would extend out 20 feet beyond that it would be like the yellow area the first two homes the actinic is unkupd occupied but the cut out of this house is acquit intrusive. the mullins they expanded the same square footage and did so without being intrusive and made the characteristic of the original homes okay. that's this house ass has capacity 20 - one thousand square feet and this is expanded one thousand feet but without being intrusive. another home is expanding 11 hundred square feet and didn't change the character of our homes. it will open the demeanors to make the expansion totally out of step. it's out off our well propositions homes. the victorian light mansion didn't fit. those are preearthquake victorians. when it's done will it have the same feel as this. san francisco is universal known as it's victorians. will this a be a - will the famous view be replaced with

this would lead to a visual embodiment of the oppositions fundamental to existence-- vertical/horizontal, active/passive, spirit and matter. mondrian was a utopian. he wanted to build a geometric world that would so totally satisfy the human psyche, it would render painting obsolete. although mondrian's ambitions were never realized, there was one event where such utopian ideals did find practical expression. the russian revolution of 1917 was not only a momentous event in world history, it had great significance for russian and stern art, although, as one russian painter put it-- vladimir tatlin-- "we artists had achieved our revolution before 1914." but for a brief time, art and politics seemed to join hands in expressing that dream of a utopian society. artists, politicians, people in the street saw art as one way of helping to reshape the world, and artists were able to break out of their traditional confines of museums and galleries and grapple with the practical problems of everyday life. "put art into production," "put art into technology," were the slogans of the day, and even, "

at the same time, visually and spiritually. i wanted to show that beauty. after my time there, michael was to show the beauty seinfield. -- my goal was to show the beauty i felt. i should make a parallel. what i felt was, for example, jewish has been like rejected, have been rejected. me, for other reasons. and when you have -- there are some people that to be integrated, they change themselves. they hide it themselves. i decided not to hide myself, like the fact that my sensibility was different than my situation was different. i could express it because i went into fashion, and in fashion, there is a lot of gay, so i did not suffer. a lot suffer. i think every minority is that they are ashamed and they do not say that they are. i felt the it was good. you should not ask to be ashamed and to hide yourself. to me, it is courage. i'm sure for a lot of people. maybe they did not say because it is some taboo like religion. it is like, if you are all together on showing who you are, you will be accepted, and people will refine everything normal. i remember one

i think benefit is more visual. less reflect tivity on screens curved and colors pop better and get better picture. melissa: patent filing by samsung looks like a device that looks like a tablet computer with a screen that folds in half. if you have the ipad, fold it in half, i could fit it in smaller purse. all kinds of things like that. how far away are we from tt. >> that is definite appcation. can you also make the electronicses fold along wit. melissa: what is the answer? >> that is a few years ought too. they're getting smaller absolutely. moore's law and path will continue on but you have to make the electronics foldable and flexible along with the display. melissa: talk about how you get there. start with the screen. in order for the screen to fold and bend and not rigid thing we're familiar wit, it has to be plastic and endure more intense heat?

the movie, first, he will explain to you the movie, tell you the story he is so much into it, and visually, so much into it. he gets very upset, then he can already imagine how he should like it to be. it is very beautiful because you can see how intent it can be and how the movie becomes a world. it is very specific at some times. for example, the apron of the made from valencia from the 1960's. ok, so i have to go to the market and find one. i not know exactly the apron of the maid of valencia in the 1960's. housewife, sorry. not a mate. it is not abstract, let's say. but specific in the color, which is absolutely inspiring and fabulous to go into the story. the movie was the cook, the thief, that one -- with helen merrin, who is absolutely fabulous -- helen mirren, fabulous actress. he showed me some painting of rembrandt and said, "uc that? could you do the in modern, in today? and i said i will try. yes, but it is part of the job. so i tried. i worked with a dutch artistic director, and i get to work with him. he was very specific and fabulous man. also, they were very specific about

we did a good job but we want to do better >> i'm sorry unfortunately, the visual isn't coming up. if you can do any little bits of what you're doing at least the people at home will get it. the people listening in the office so if you can give as much detail. those guiding principles >> we'll assure the principles including the students and families to participate and contribute to the visual process. we're going to have the best practices and the design of the process we want to provide experiences that can tap in and garner the expertise in the coalition. we want to draw from the most frlt resources for relevant information and it's a model of continuance improvement and we'll actively improve our process and the last one if you want to create a strategy to assure that the vision is viable. which is why we talked about you'll see those reflected in the future tracks. so the working groups we are looking the early and admitted and adolescent years but the seams will cut across the educational environment and how do we promote the advocate model. we want to deepen the conversation

you can visualize it as a tree.a seed of it, i bring it until it's about this big, you know, and i present it to the band, and then we work on the foundation of it. then when you perform it, it starts to change all different seasons, and change colors, and then it gets much bigger. then you truly realize that there's something bigger happening. it's not your song anymore. it's gone. [music continues] funding for this program was provided by the annenberg/cpb project. here, kitty, kitty! here, kitty, kitty, kitty! re, kitty, kty you'd think it wld be easy to tell which kids had trouble with their eyesight. [ thud ] but that's not always the case. even though one in four children may have a vision problem, eye doctors tell us the symptoms aren't always so obvious. we do know that 80% of all childhood learning is visual. and without good vision, kids can have trouble learning to read. [ girls screaming ] ow! and may fall behind in school. for clues on how to spot the real-life signs of childhood vision problems and wha

as part of this visual vocabulary those fountains and benches you seeing see rising and twisting from the ground are digitally cast into concrete. the concrete is an 80 percent recycled material which is in con formulations with the plat form of qualifications of the architecture by hk s. the decomposed granite allows water to pass through. sculpture is meant to be skrurlt it is also accommodating the lives of people who are going to work in this facility and use it. i think this this sense it's what the art and architecture program intended for its platform for architecture. john dewey once said that long. >> art it the beauty parlor of civilization neither art of civilization are secure. it's a recognize that the federal government believed that art should and can enrich our lives. this project was taken out of the beauty parlor and put here ugly or usable and behalf. they've recognized the building art and it's through those those types of collaborations that are become into the arts collaboration. i hope this continues to grow our infrastructure. i take it my dreamy know from expe

the department also feels to fully address the historic district and the visual impacts on the historic district from this proposed project. first of all as i talked about there is not a single conceptual rendering anywhere in the document which would show the impact and in fact the rooftop mechanicals and elevator e pent houses are not shown in any drawing or any concept. with a project like this, a project that's being inserted in the historic district across the street on values gentleman and -- valencia and history k area, there is a sign in front of the subject property which announces the historic district and certain what is propose such a development is sensitivity, compatibility and color and materials might matter. the discussion in the environmental document is wrongful, there is no analysis of discussion. it says these buildings exist someplace and therefore the impacts will be the same as they are in any other urban area. with the right approach, this project could be completely contemporary design, could fit in, but those issues are not discussed. they are not fully vetted

stone of san francisco's our community to the meridian gallery has a 20-year history of supporting visual arts. experimental music concert, and also readings. >> give us this day our daily bread at least three times a day. and lead us not into temptation to often on weekdays. [laughter] >> meridians' stands apart from the commercial galleries around union square, and it is because of their core mission, to increase social, philosophical, and spiritual change my isolated individuals and communities. >> it gives a statement, the idea that a significant art of any kind, in any discipline, creates change. >> it is philosophy that attracted david linger to mount a show at meridian. >> you want to feel like your work this summer that it can do some good. i felt like at meridian, it could do some good. we did not even talk about price until the day before the show. of course, meridian needs to support itself and support the community. but that was not the first consideration, so that made me very happy. >> his work is printed porcelain. he transfers images onto and spoils the surface a fragile s

we got a donation from visual arts to supplement the house and the representative for all the artist. a good portion that want to be here and stay here and continue practicing the arts for all of us. arts are part of success for san francisco, they are part of the culture, they are part of the international flavor of san francisco. we are going to continue doing everything we can to support their existence, their survival and their success. when we drafted the market street economic strategy, we had arts right there focused. now we've got some answers, now we've got some models to exhibit out there. so these first two successful building owner ships are just the beginning. when the arts programs established themselves as part owner of these wonderful buildings we have here, they are going to also need the continued support of our city, of our residents, of the tech workers up and down and small businesses up and down market street to not only continue with performances but to support them. arts is about community action and support. i want to thank the arts, the arts commission for be

television is visual, television these do with production. >> very different writing. not every novelist cantranslate into it. >> one of the things if you're thinking about technology think about the fact that we have two screens now or many of us. there's one screen. what happens when the second screen gets smushed into the first? and when we control the crawl at the bottom of our television and if i want to hear emily wisecracking during "girls" i can just -- that's going to be my feed. her and her buddies. >> this kills me. i tet all the tie. i tet during "scandal." i don'tweet during "girls" and i don't twe during mad men because ieel like it's visual and want to watch it. sometimes ding the commercials look and see but there's no topping it. >> thankou, emily, thank you, terence, thank you, david, thank you, josh. back in a moment. stay with us. >> and we're losing the battle within the african american community. it's not because of the ku klux klan, it's because we've internalized our own oppression and until we return to the values that those of us my age in th
