Pneumatic motor low engine temperatures. The Pneumatic Quasiturbine engine is a compressed air pistonless rotary engine using a rhomboidal-shaped rotor whose sides are hinged at the vertices. The Quasiturbine has demonstrated as a pneumatic engine using stored compressed air It can also take advantage of the energy amplification possible from using available external heat, such as solar energy. The Quasiturbine rotates from pressure as low as 0.1 atm (1.47psi). Since the Quasiturbine is a pure expansion engine, while the Wankel and most other rotary engines are not, it is well-suited as a compressed fluid engine, air engine or air motor. Armando Regusci's
The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction free", for lacking the "aura" of the original work of art. The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction (1935, "Das Kunstwerk im Zeitalter seiner technischen Reproduzierbarkeit"), by Walter Benjamin, is an essay of cultural criticism which proposes that the "aura" of a work of art is devalued by mechanical reproduction. The subject and themes of the essay have much influenced the fields of art history and architectural theory, and of cultural studies and media theory. During the Nazi régime (1933–1945) in Germany, Benjamin wrote the essay to
