the objects originated as part of a larger study of two-dimensional shapes, where line was the only component used to define form and later, function.

One of the weirder choices of the Broadway adaptation of The Little Mermaid was to simulate swimming by having the cast skate around on wheelie sneakers. For this Japanese production at the Shiki Theatre Company, however, the creative team really stepped up their game (more…)
You know that it’s bad to not get enough sleep, but do you know how bad? This infographic explains all the terrible side effects—like anger, cravings, and taking unnecessary risks—that can come from getting too little sleep every night.

Ever wondered what sort of music your favourite studios listen to while working? Yes? Us too! So we thought we’d start a monthly(ish) feature series ingeniously called “Studio Playlists” which does just that — giving us a quick eves-dropping of various studios’ working-music.
The second studio on our list is Anagrama, with a 55-track eclectic playlist. Listen to it on our sidebar while browsing our posts, or listen to it via Spotify!

You can cut down of food waste by linking your ingredients together into several meals —like using mushroom stems for a broth after using the caps in another dish.
Christoph Niemann's Sunday Sketches are typically great, but this one from last Sunday really grabbed my attention:
So good. I am also a sucker for this one:
Cleo Loi is only 23 years old, but the University of Sydney student of astrophysics--undergrad, even—has just proven something that scientists couldn't for the past 60 years.
The theory was that there might be enormous bodies of plasma moving about Earth in a series of rings aligned with our magnetic poles, though none could prove it.
Ms. Loi, however, had the ingenious idea of splitting the actions of a radio telescope array in half. By using the left half to look slightly to the right, and the right half to look slightly to the left, she was able to essentially mimic the triangulation that human eyes use to determine depth and see in three dimensions. The result: She and her research team found the plasma rings.
"The structures are strikingly organized, appearing as regularly spaced, alternating tubes of overdensities and underdensities strongly aligned with the Earth's magnetic field," reads the abstract from her team's paper, "Real-time imaging of density ducts between the plasmasphere and ionosphere."
Since the research took place in Australia rather than America, I'm guessing the plasma rings will not be harnessed into a devastating superweapon that will turn our planet into a powerful Death Star. Instead it seems, according to Australia's News.com, that the implications are more scientific than martial:
Ms Loi said the drifting plasma tubes could distort astronomical data, especially satellite-based navigation systems. It may also mean we need to re-evaluate our thinking about how galaxies, stars and clouds of gas behave and what they look like.
Here's a video that explains how Ms. Loi made her discovery:
Mexican weed production is no longer profitable. That's because US growers have greatly increased the quality and quantity of their product, now that there's less risk of getting busted by authorities. The Mexican drug cartels are turning their attention to heroin to make up for the lost revenue.

If you thought water and lighting are two things that should never meet, you’ll be pleasantly surprised by this mesmerizing new “Rain Lamp” by designer Richard Clarkson. The nature-inspired Rain Lamp uses a pump system to circulate water through a glass globe, allowing for a slow, steady drip of droplets that are projected by light onto surrounding surfaces. The steady drip of the lamp results in a mesmerizing ripple effect on your floor. Read on to see a short video of this unique light in action.

Por alguna razón que desconozco hay mucha gente a la que le gustaría tener un gato colgado. Personalmente no soy muy de colgarme seres vivos y dudo mucho que las aspiraciones felinas tengan como objetivo final convertirse en canguros. En cualquier caso, la Mewgaroo está arrasando entre los amantes de los gatos.
La Mewgaroo es una sudadera con un ancho bolsillo para poder depositar al felino en su interior y ordenarle que ronronee hasta la extenuación. Además, la sudadera tiene orejas de gato y algunos detalles para, supongo, confundir al gato real y que le entren más ganas de meterse en la bolsa de su madre y escapar del mundo. Una táctica, eso sí, que funciona de forma espléndida en humanos de entre 40 y 65 años.
En Unihabitat os podréis hacer con ella por algo menos de 50 euros. Sugiero que grabéis las peleas con el gato para que se quede en la bolsa; prometen ser épicas.
