There is no greater importance in all the world like knowing you are right and that the wave of the world is wrong, yet the wave crashes upon you.” ~ Norman Mailer (1923 – 2007), Armies Of The Night

Woodsy Drone

This is a tambura, an Indian fretless drone lute.

Wikipedia sez:

A tambura (South India) or tanpura (North India) is a long-necked Indian plucked string instrument. In its bodily shape it somewhat resembles the sitar, but it has no frets, as only the open strings are played as a harmonic accompaniment to the other musicians. It has four or five (rarely, six) wire strings, which are plucked one after another in a regular pattern to create a harmonic resonance on the basic note (bourdon or drone function).

Spaceship Shade

Just one of the many (functional) public art pieces on the Metro Line route.  This particular one is located in downtown Phoenix near the Public Library on Central Avenue.
