step 1) drag a bunch of video clips to dvd architect and author the blu-ray dvd from there; dvd architect produces a blu-ray .iso file (it apparently won't let you choose to create the /bdmv etc files separately), in this case 24 gigs
now what? I tried using dvd architect's burn feature to burn to a blu ray, but it wouldn't play, either in my ps3 on the tv, or using powerdvd on the pc... it just loads up the root menu, but won't work from there, just crashes
Hi - thanks. Seems odd, using Sony DVD Architect to author a blu-ray dvd, it will only output to .iso, which means then I need to unpack the iso (or do a virtual mount and extract 24 gigs of stuff, which'll take a long time), then burn to blu ray w/imgburn. Appreciate the tip... let me know if any easier way to use sony dvd architect to author blu-ray, using imgburn... seems like it has to be an easier method, I've been working on this dang blu ray all week
As part of a redevelopment effort for the area, the space was to be developed. In 1992, Sony acquired the 30,000-square-meter (320,000 sq ft) site from the Berlin city government for 97.2 million German marks, about US$61.6 million. Shortly after, the European Commission briefly investigated whether Sony paid less than the market price.[2] Over the following years, a total of eight buildings[3] were designed by Helmut Jahn[4] and Peter Walker as landscape architect, and construction was completed in 2000 at a total cost of 750 million euros.
Hi, does any one know whether the new Sony Android TV model still uses the armv7 architecture? I just got a Bravias XR-65X95J in China that does not come with Google Play Store (don't get me started...) I tested a Netflix arm-v7a apk and it did not work.
At Berliner, we believe every space counts. A thoughtfully designed space will positively impact the quality of life of its occupants - improving the way they live, work, learn and play. That's why we do what we do. We are master planners, architects and designers determined to make a difference for our clients, in their spaces.
Sony is a Principal with over 15 years of experience in academic, residential and commercial design in a variety of geographical locations. Higher education clients he has worked with include the University of Toronto, the University of British Columbia and Drexel University in Philadelphia. Sony was project architect for a LEED Gold certified health sciences building and LEED Silver candidate Student Union building, both located in New Mexico. He has also worked in the United Kingdom. As project architect, Sony has been involved in the design of several residential condominiums throughout Toronto, including high-rise, mid-rise and townhomes, and a 700-bed student residence building.
Additionally, I take along the Distagon T* FE 35mm f/1.4 ZA, FE 24-70mm f/2.8 GM for architectural shots when a T/S is not necessary. The FE 70-200mm f/2.8 GM OSS is perfect for out the window view images and scene-setting images of the surrounding environment or for photographing people in an architectural environment when I need to add a little bokeh to the mix. And finally, the FE 90mm f/2.8 Macro G OSS [tack sharp wide open at f/2.8,] with very pleasing bokeh, is stellar for architectural and design detail shots.
Focusing System for Auto Focus Lenses

The site was originally a bustling city centre in the early 20th century. Most of the buildings were destroyed or damaged during World War II. From 1961 on, most of the area became part of the No Man's Land of the Berlin Wall, resulting in the destruction of the remaining buildings. After the fall of the Berlin Wall on 9 November 1989, the square became the focus of attention again, as a large (some 60 hectares), attractive location which had suddenly become available in the centre of a major European capital city. As part of a redevelopment effort for the area, the center was constructed. The centre was designed by Helmut Jahn and Peter Walker as landscape architect and construction was completed in 2000 at a total cost of EUR750M. In February 2008 Sony sold Berlin's Sony Center for less than EUR600M to a group of German and US investment funds, including investment bank Morgan Stanley, Corpus Sireo and an affiliate of The John Buck Company
Before the COVID-19 pandemic, I shot anything and everything that caught my eye, especially during my overseas vacations. During the last 2 years, due to travel restrictions, urban architectural photography organically became my main focus as Singapore is filled with iconic landmarks and I wanted to document some of its architectural history amidst its rapid urban redevelopment.
Whenever I am walking or travelling on public transport, I constantly look out for buildings with interesting lines, shapes, colors and patterns. Then, I would look for unique vantage points especially nearby high-rise residential housing that are publicly accessible for me to shoot it. As for iconic landmarks, I would sometimes try to search for their names, architects and history such that I can focus on the unique architectural elements to capture. Usually, I tend to visit the chosen site several times, during different times of the day to see how the shadows fall on them such that I can obtain different perspectives that produce unconventional images.
My first two Olympus lenses were the M.Zuiko 12-100mm f/4 PRO and the M.Zuiko 25mm f/1.8 and the former is my favorite lens since it is very versatile with a very useful range. Recently, I have started using the M.Zuiko 8-25mm f/4 PRO and the M.Zuiko 100-400mm f/5-6.3, both loaner gear from the local Olympus camera distributor after I conducted an Architecture and Street Photography workshop for the local Olympus club in January 2022. With this array of lenses, I have coverage from 16mm to 800mm (Full-Frame equivalence) which provides me with many options for different situations from architecture and cityscapes to street and portraits.
"The announcement of this project made the front page of The New York Times not because of its size or economic impact, but because of its heralding of a new architectural era," wrote architecture critic Carter B Horsley in The City Review. "It was not the first building of its time to base its style on historical allusion, of course, but it was the most prominent and most publicised. Because Johnson and Burgee were the nation's most favoured corporate architects at the time, and because AT&T was not a minor company, the design took on even greater significance and clout."
AT&T wanted a tower that rivalled the stature of the bronze and glass Seagram Building, but it wanted its new home to look markedly different. The chairman asked for a dignified headquarters that wasn't a glass box, a building that would signal the next direction in architecture.
While Johnson and Burgee collaborated on many designs, Johnson had the stronger pedigree and was regarded as one of America's most influential architects. He was the first director of the architecture department at New York's Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), a position he held from 1932 to 1934, and again from 1946 to 1954. He studied architecture at Harvard under Marcel Breuer and Walter Gropius, and later joined the office of Mies van der Rohe, where he worked on the Seagram Building.
"What fascinated him most was the idea of the new, and once he had helped establish Modernist architecture in the United States, he moved on, experimenting with decorative Classicism, embracing the reuse of historical elements that would become known as Postmodernism," wrote critic Paul Goldberger in 2005 upon Johnson's death at the age of 98.
When their design was unveiled in 1978, it sparked an uproar in the architecture community. A "Declaration of Independence" from Modernism, the design featured a symmetrical tower sheathed in pink granite and topped with a crown resembling a broken pediment. The distinctive roof line earned the nickname Chippendale, a reference to the historic cabinetry by the English furniture maker Thomas Chippendale. "This was seen to be a kind of bad-boy behaviour, having an absolutely ornamental top," architectural historian and the former chief architecture curator at MoMABarry Bergdoll told Dezeen.
The base of the tower also marked a notable departure from Modernism. Zoning laws required that the architects incorporate retail space and a public plaza into the building's ground level. To accomplish this, Johnson/Burgee took an unusual approach, placing the office tower atop 60-foot-high (18 metre) columns. Underneath, they created an airy loggia with cafe chairs and tables, and a shopping arcade modelled after the famous galleria in Milan.
The project gained national attention. In January 1979, TIME Magazine featured Johnson on one of its covers with the architect shown holding a model of the building. The accompanying story, by critic Robert Hughes, examined Postmodernism and posited Johnson as its leader. That same year, Johnson was the first ever recipient of the Pritzker Prize, established by the Pritzker family in Chicago to honour the world's most influential architects.
Whether or not it's an important building in architectural history is up for debate. "Prescient for its time, the design's historicist shtick has aged with surprising grace, its once-goofball Chippendale top having acquired the architectural gravitas of the city's most cherished skyscrapers," wrote architectural journalist Samuel Medina in Metropolis Magazine.
