Granada's dominant sight is the Alhambra, the last and greatest Moorish palace. For two centuries, until 1492, Granada reigned as the capital of a dwindling Moorish empire. As Christian forces pushed the Moors farther and farther south, this palace was the last hurrah of a sophisticated civilization.

In this video we learn about the architectural features of the Alhambra Palace in Granda, Spain. I'll share some travel tips too! We'll examine the palace's Islamic design features, including vegetal, calligraphy and geometric patterns. This includes the colorful tile work that forms tessellations on the walls. These designs inspired MC Escher, to explore tessellations.

John Williams Plays Recuerdos de la Alhambra on the Les Dawson Show (Early 1990's)
The Alhambra, "the red fortress", is a palace and fortress complex located in Granada, Andalusia, Spain. It was constructed during the mid 14th century by the Moorish rulers of the Emirate of Granada in al-Andalus, occupying the top of the hill of the Assabica on the southeastern border of the city of Granada. The Alhambra's Moorish palaces were built for the last Muslim Emirs in Spain and its court, of the Nasrid dynasty. After the Reconquista (reconquest) by the Reyes Católicos ("Catholic Monarchs") in 1492, some portions were used by the Christian rulers. The Palace of Charles V, built by Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor in 1527, was inserted in the Alhambra within the Nasrid fortifications. After being allowed to fall into disrepair for centuries, the Alhambra was "discovered" in the 19th...

The Alhambra (Arabic: الْحَمْرَاء) "The Red One" is a palace and fortress complex located in Granada, Andalusia, Spain. It was originally constructed as a small fortress in AD 889 on the remains of Roman fortifications and then largely ignored until its ruins were renovated and rebuilt in the mid-13th century by the Moorish emir Mohammed ben Al-Ahmar of the Emirate of Granada, who built its current palace and walls. It was converted into a royal palace in 1333 by Yusuf I, Sultan of Granada. After the conclusion of the Christian Reconquista in 1492, the site became the Royal Court of Ferdinand and Isabella (where Christopher Columbus allegedly received royal endorsement for his expedition) and the palaces were partially altered to Renaissance tastes. In 1526 Charles I & V commission...
We investigate the symmetries contained in the walls of the Alhambra, and spiritual nature of mathematics. When something is true mathematically, it is true forever. The Islamic Moors recognized parallel between that thought and their conception of divinity; consequently, they placed mathematically brilliant designs on the walls of important structures.

Economist John Williams thinks the global economy is weak, and a black swan could hit anytime and take it all down. The next crash will be the greatest ever. Williams contends, “It will certainly be a world class event that people will be talking about for centuries.” On gold, Williams says, “I’ve been bullish on gold for as long as I have been bearish on the dollar and calling for the ultimate collapse of the dollar and hyperinflationary depression that will eventually unfold. The best hedge in that type of circumstance are the precious metals. I am talking about physical ownership of gold and silver. Personally, I prefer coins because they are liquid.” So, what is the timing for what Williams says is a coming hyperinflationary depression? Williams says, “You could have a crisis a...

John Williams, one of the most popular and recognizable American composers of our time, recently sat down for a short interview about his time in the U.S. Air Force with Col. Larry H. Lang, commander and conductor of The U.S. Air Force Band. Williams entered the Air Force in 1952 and attended basic military training at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas. He was stationed at both Davis-Monthan AFB, Arizona and Pepperrell AFB in St. Johns, Newfoundland. He primarily served as a pianist and brass player; his arranging and writing, though extensive, was a secondary duty. While serving in Canada, Williams was a part of the Air Force's early international outreach initiatives. Now, through this interview, he is part of the Band's latest efforts to tell the Air Force story and reach ...
