NARVA, ESTONIA: THAT’S LIFE
player. Always the bridesmaid, never the bride. Missed being the Grand Champion on five separate occasions. Many chess historians consider him to be one of the greatest players in history, and the strongest player never to become world champion. He was born in Narva. Hence, the sculpture, the plaque, and … I happen to live on the street named after him. Needless to say, on this past Saturday, he remained number two. I beat him handily. Sorry, Paul. You can’t win ‘em all. Obviously.

NARVA, ESTONIA STREET ART: JAAK JOALA by “ALBERT”
With an area of around 200 square metres (2,153 square feet approx.) and using more than 30 litres of spray-paint, the mural, featuring Soviet-era musician Jaak Joala, was ‘Albert’s’ greatest challenge to date.
‘Albert’ is composed of two parts, lead inventor Mikhel Joala (who is not related the subject of the painting) explains – a stationary part remains on the ground and unwinds cables to move the printer head over the surface of the wall, painting the design line by line.
The printer head carries cans of spray-paint and fires small dots in precise combinations at specific times, all controlled by a wireless device from the ground.
Hand-painting the mural would take “weeks or even months” says Joala – but ‘Albert’ completed the design in just 11 hours.
Spray-painter, the company that developed ‘Albert’, wants to use him in future printing projects and says the potential size of a ‘canvas’ for the little robot is almost unlimited.
The mural of Jaak Joala was commissioned by a poster of an upcoming play about the musician’s life, opening at a theatre in Tartu, Estonia’s second-largest city.” ——-

It’s like a big inkjet, right? And, I don’t agree that it would take “weeks or months” to complete it the traditional way.
