No Comments on Human species ‘may split in two’

Since i was so baffled by the fact that Pouriya used his iphone as a mouse…i thought this article would teach us all to not be so dependent on technology!

No Comments on More Architecture publications

Previously I posted a link from Me’emar Nashar.

Now I introduce to Aruna, Iran Architecture and Urbanism Agency. THe website is accessible both in English and Farsi. You might even find an article related to your research paper:

http://aruna.ir/

Another one of my favourite magazines is Meemaran online magazine. It has a huge archive with tons of interesting articles about the architectural wonders of Iran and much more. The website is in Farsi only:

Here is a slideshow of contemporary Iranian architecture in 3D:

Norouz

نـفـس باد صبا مشک فشان خواهد شد
عالـم پیر دگرباره جوان خواهد شد
ارغوان جام عقیقی به سمـن خواهد داد
چشم نرگس به شقایق نگران خواهد شد
این تـطاول که کشید از غم هجران بلبـل
تا سراپرده گـل نـعره زنان خواهد شد
گر ز مسجد به خرابات شدم خرده مـگیر
مجلس وعظ دراز است و زمان خواهد شد
ای دل ار عشرت امروز بـه فردا فـکـنی
مایه نـقد بـقا را که ضـمان خواهد شد
ماه شعبان منه از دست قدح کاین خورشید
از نـظر تا شب عید رمـضان خواهد شد
گـل عزیز است غنیمت شمریدش صحبت
که به باغ آمد از این راه و از آن خواهد شد
مطربا مجلس انس است غزل خوان و سرود
چند گویی که چنین رفت و چنان خواهد شد
حافـظ از بـهر تو آمد سوی اقـلیم وجود
قدمی نه به وداعش کـه روان خواهد شد
