Coincidence? I think not!

Art is how we decorate space, music is how we decorate time ... and with spinning tops, we decorate both.

I checked on a map on the internet, there is no "Kreisel" on von Karman Avenue.
(KREISEL  is the German word for spinning top but the word is also very often used for a "roundabout".)

See how wrong they got title here:

It actually is "Giant Top 0.1", and a precursor of Jeremy's pole dancers!

They got so close to a top! But the invention of the wheel really went down like this...
