In the last decade, many books, films, articles have been published about Nikola Tesla. National Geographic will showcase a whole series about the inventor, and even cars are being built nowadays with his name on it. Can you tell me (and us), why is that so? Why is Nikola Tesla so important today? Please send comments. Thank you.

Tesla’s women

Nikola Tesla’s life represents a perfect canvas for speculative thoughts. One interesting field in this regard is ‘Tesla and women’. A bachelor all his life, Tesla himself made several remarks about his relationships with women: “Marriage for an artist, yes; for a musician, yes; for a writer, yes; but for an inventor, no. The first three must gain inspiration from a woman’s influence and be led by their love to finer achievement, but an inventor has so intense a nature with so much of it in wild, passionate quality that in giving himself to a woman he might love, he would give every thing, and so take everything from his chosen field… It’s a pity, too, for sometimes we feel so lonely…” (Indianapolis Journal, June 19, 1896, p.3.)

Happy Birthday Mr. Tesla!

On this wonderful day I would like to express my warm congratulations to the 160th Birthday of Nikola Tesla with a stanza from a poem by Robert Underwood Johnson, a friend of the prodigal genius:

Oh, could Earth and Time assemble

All thy legions, Liberty,

At their tread the world would tremble

With the passion to be free.

by Robert Underwood Johnson (1853-1937)

In January 1943, Nikola Tesla passed away. In January 2016, one of Tesla’s biggest fans, Mr David Bowie, went on his journey to what he called “Dark Star”. May we always remember that there are great characters around even if they are not anymore. Their legacy lives on. R.I.P.
