5D GUIDE

5D GUIDE A 5D Understanding of our 3D Surroundings. www.5dguide.com To be able and convey what I have learned I had to choose an out-of-the-box name for this project.

New York is a city of over 8 million realities and the works of art in public spaces all over the different neighborhoods help reflect that diversity. I am actively involved in making videos for this video blog about public art in New York in an effort to share with the world this wonderful creative collective. It’s called 5D GUIDE NYC, a five dimensional guide to New York City. As a student of th

e history of art, my vision is to keep expanding and turn this project into a PhD study that examines in part how the cultural diversity of this city is reflected in the visual vocabulary all over the different neighborhoods. Aside from video blogging, I am also a licensed tour guide in this amazing city. If you visit or live in NYC contact me and I’ll be happy to show you around.

The fear that comes with the threat of total disaster hits differently in NYC.

From the shock of 9/11 to the unexpected earthquake of 2011, New Yorkers have experienced moments when the ground beneath them—and their sense of security—suddenly shifted.

On August 23, 2011 at 10:20am, a 5.9-magnitude earthquake centered in Virginia sent tremors through New York City. Buildings were evacuated, crowds poured into the streets, and for a brief moment, the city stood still. Thankfully, there were no reports of major injuries or significant damage in NYC.

In this photo, crowds gather on Wall Street moments after the quake struck.

📍 Do you remember where you were in 2011 when the earth shook New York City?

Happy World Photography Day! 📸

Today, we celebrate the art of capturing life's precious moments! 🎉 In 1839, the French government gifted the world with the daguerreotype, the first practical photographic process. Since 2010, we've honored this milestone. This stunning collage showcases America's most iconic moments, frozen in time. What does it reveal about our connection to time and eternity? 🤔

Do you have a favorite photo that inspires you? 📸 Please share :)

As we transition from 4D (life in time) to 5D (timelessness), Photos help us cherish every moment in time! ✨

Today, back in 1943, the novel "A Tree Grows in Brooklyn" by Betty Smith was first published.

The story focuses on an impoverished but aspirational, second-generation Irish-American, adolescent girl and her family in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, New York City, during the first two decades of the 20th century.

The main metaphor of the story is the hardy Tree of Heaven, native to China and Taiwan, now considered invasive, and common in the vacant lots of New York.

The novel addresses issues like poverty, alcoholism, lying, and more Its main theme is the need for tenacity: the determination to rise above difficult circumstances.

Please share this moment in time 🙂

“Love Continuum” by artist Yoni Alter on display in Manhattan’s Union Square Park in 2025/26.

Centering on love is the key to the best life. Notice how the red of the sculpture brings your attention directly to it. From most angles, love looks like a tangled noodle. Once you read love, the understanding of what it means stays with you no matter from whatever angle you look at it.
