The book, Lest We Forget: Emirati Family Photographs 1950-1999, explores the experiences of Emirati people during the early decades of nation building. Daily life in this rapidly evolving landscape is captured through personal stories and family photographs. These differ from the widely known photographs taken by the government, oil companies, missionaries and travelers. They were not intended to document media events or official protocol; instead these candid images captured private, lasting memories. This is the first publication of such important vernacular material. A group of eight Emirati female students of Zayed University began this project four years ago, with nearly fifty students gradually contributing their family family photographs and oral histories to a collaboratively designed and authored book. Their professor, Dr. Michele Bambling, and renowned photographer Susan Meiselas guided the students' creative approach to exploring their family photographs. Documented by their own cameras and told through their own memories, the book offers an Emirati perspective on life in their nation during the second half of the twentieth century. "This book and its accompanying exhibition and archive, was conceived as an extended research project I conducted with my students of curatorial practices at Zayed University, Abu Dhabi, over a three-year period, beginning in 2010. Building on that foundation, I helped establish 'Lest We Forget' as a creative archival initiative under the auspices of the Salama bint Hamdan Al Nahyan Foundation. To date, more than one hundred Emirati female university students, interns and volunteers have since contributed their photographs, stories, memories, artistic talent and time to create the integral book, exhibition and archive collaboratively."

He made the method of determining directions from shadow observation earn high reputation for many centuries. . .''(Beginning of the English introduction). --- A BEAUTIFUL OBJECT: ''In 1276, after Yuan forces captured the Southern Song capital Lin'an (present-day Hangzhou), Kublai Khan gathered personnel from the astronomical bureaus of both the Jin and Song dynasties in Dadu (present-day Beijing). Along with newly selected talents, they formed a powerful astronomical team. Under the leadership of Wang Xun and Guo Shoujing, this team engaged in instrument-making, astronomical measurements, and the compilation of a new calendar. In just five years (1276-1280) they achieved remarkable accomplishments elevating ancient Chinese astronomy to a new peak. . . The Zheng Fang An consisted of 19 concentric circles drawn on a four-foot square wooden board, with a rod placed at the center. When the shadow of the rod fell on a specific circle, the position was recorded. By connecting two points on the same circle from morning to evening, the midpoint of the line connecting them and the center of the circle would indicate [the] true south. If the board were stood on its side, it could also measure the height of the North Star above the horizon. This instrument was portable, making it suitable for fieldwork.''(from the website of 'ChinaKnowledge - An Encyclopaedia on Chinese History, Literature and Art', chapter ''Calendar - Chronology - Astronomy'').…
