"The result of tonights Livestream, clocked in at roughly 2 hours. For the most part is was just painting a portrait of Darwin from reference, but I really love what the hat does for it ... I also have a feeling there will be more portraits like this in the future ..."
"This page is dedicated to cassette tapes... Here you won't find any kind of scientific research, technical data or things like that... The authors' only message is just to give a visitor something interesting to look at… The era of this particular medium is slowly passing, and here we are trying to turn back time for 60 minutes… or, maybe, for 90..."

Nowadays birds are not welcome under rooftiles anymore, so they lost a beautifull nest place. Placing a house on top of a rooftile, now created a nice place for a birdsnest. And also better to spot!(via NOTCOT)
"Its 39,000 square feet of ultraclean workspace ... divided into three huge "ballrooms," each of which is crammed full of Applied's multimillion-dollar machines, alongside pipes, tubes, spare parts, tanks of caustic chemicals, Craftsman tool chests and huge racks of silicon wafers. To get inside, you must suit up in a bunny suit, with a face mask and goggles, two pairs of gloves, and shoe-covering footies. We couldn't even take a reporter's notebook inside: Instead, Applied's staff gave us a shrink-wrapped, specially sanitized clean-room notebook and clean-room pen to use. It's not a manufacturing facility. Instead, this clean room simulates the fabs where Applied's machines will be used, enabling the company (and its customers) to test out new techniques and processes before putting them on the production line ..."

"If you've ever been inspired by astronauts, black holes and zero gravity, you're in luck! Etsy is partnering with NASA to host an exciting contest. After 50 momentous years and over 130 missions to the cosmos, NASA's Space Shuttle Program will draw to a close in 2011 as it reaches its long-term goal of completing the International Space Station. To honor the program and celebrate its many accomplishments, we're calling for designs inspired by NASA, its programs and the wonders of space exploration. Invigorate your inner maker with all that is known (and unknown) about our universe." NASA & Etsy Space Craft Contest: To the Moon and BeyondDer Contest lässt sich schon mal vielversprechend mit obenstehender Krawatte an, auf der die Anleitung für das Kontroll-Panel aus dem Apollo-Modul aufgedruckt ist:
We've come upon an incredible repository of vintage declassified documents including NASA's "Command Module Main Control Panel" - from the Apollo Operations Handbook Block II Spacecraft, 1969. One of our most detailed prints yet - enjoy! Apollo cockpit silkscreen(via Craft)

"Personal project imagining a how Facebook would have looked on an old fashioned computer in 1984, using a pixelated DOS-style font and a heavy use of texture, lighting and reflection. The 'Home' screen displays various updates from users which relate to the time period. For example, note 'updated via Analog Motorola' instead of an iPhone or Blackberry."

"I had been watching weather reports so I knew a storm was coming and it just seemed like a great opportunity. I was ready and waiting and took 81 shots before finally getting this one. I was shocked when I realised what had happened. It was pure luck really, a once in a lifetime opportunity ..."(via Gizmodo)
"The curtain is smaller than the window, but an additional surveillance camera and an old laptop provide it with intelligence: The computer sees the pedestrians and locates them. With a motor attached, it positions the curtain exactly where the pedestrians are ... But in the end, it doesn’t protect my privacy at all. It seems that the existence of my little curtain is leading itself ad absurdum, simply by doing its job very well. My moving curtain attracts the looks of people which usually would never care about my window. It is even the star of the street, now! ... And because of that, it fails." My little piece of Privacy
