The Kiravan. When Too Much Is Never Enough...

Sixty something year old inventor and entrepreneur Bran Ferren has a young daughter Kira he thinks the world of and wants to
show it to her.
Young Kira thinks the amazing vehicle her imaginative father has spent four years creating and which has cost millions of dollars, could take her exploring on the moon.
She might be right and another planet could be just the place for the monstrosity.
For her father, too much is never enough and this, this ugly looking vehicle, sorry Bran, built on a Unimog chassis, has an excess of everything and will consume gallons of gas every time the key is turned.
There's more about it here.
Hopefully this isn't the shape of homes on wheels in the future. It's about as far removed from our natural environment as you could get...

Dubai Expects 180 Million Tourists A Year To Visit The First Temperature Controlled City With The Mall Of The World, Touted As The Planet's Largest Shopping Center...

Some people will want to throw up or at least throw up their arms in horror at the thought of this monstrosity with it's excess of everything. Can you imagine the mass of humanity crowded into it's forty eight million square feet of shopping space and the thousands of hotel rooms catering for them. No wonder they're also having a three million square foot 'wellness district' dedicated
to rejuvenation.
You'd need rejuvenation alright and more
after a day in that environment.
This project will evidently complement Dubai's plan to transform itself into a cultural, tourist and economic hub for the two billion people living in the region around them. Amazing.
I can't imagine anyone wanting to retain some sanity in their lives going anywhere near Dubai's latest dubious display of crassness.
But there's no accounting for taste...
