Portrait Hair Weave (6 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       3 Nov 2010       7157

This is a hair weave work by Chinese Zhang Dexuan, 66. He’s weaving portraits on hair, a technique invented by his grandmother. Zhang learned the skill in 2 years and accomplished his first portrait before he turned 30. He normally makes miniature portraits, working with magnifier.

The only sad thing about it is as he doesn’t have a descendant to transmit the skill now, it may be lost in future..

Symbolism Behind the Logos (30 pics)

This is a great collection of smart logos with the hidden message.

Some, of course, are obvious, but some, to fully understand them, you need to the story or explanation, or even a little puzzle. For me, these are the best logos in terms of design.

Uncanny Factoid: 4yr Old Sued

Posted in PICTURES       2 Nov 2010       4534

Yes, you read that correctly. A four year old was sued in a class action suit. When Jacob Kohn and Juliet Breitman raced down a public street on their bicycles they ran over an 87 year old woman, knocking her down, fracturing her hip. Claire Menagh had to have surgery and three weeks later she passed away.

Here are some excellent reasons not to use methamphetamines. This girl was rather pretty when she started using them in 2004. She certainly isn’t pretty anymore. This post serves to illustrate how destructive the drug really is.

Unconventional File Sharing (31 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       2 Nov 2010       10220

This is known as the Dead Drops Project. It was designed to share files peer to peer and be anonymous offline. There is a readme.txt file that explains the project. What’s so unconventional about it is that a person can plug their laptop into a pole, wall, or building to use it.

If you live in New York, here are some places where you can find them:
87 3rd Avenue, Brooklyn, NY (Makerbot); Empire Fulton Ferry Park, Brooklyn, NY (Dumbo); 235 Bowery, NY (New Museum); Union Square, NY (Subway Station 14th St); 540 West 21st Street, NY (Eyebeam)

This little guy could be the son of Robocop. He seems to be all alone in the big city but that’s OK because for his size he looks like he could take care of himself. Apparently, he is friends with all the local cops, but no wonder there ;)
He is part machine, part kid, and all cop.

There are many abandoned buildings in San Francisco. Here are the photos of some of them which were taken by photographer Joseph Schell. Judging from all the graffiti, apparently all these places continue to have visitors from time to time although they have long been vacated. I'd love to visit some of them.

The Rally To Restore Sanity And/Or Fear: the 100 Best Signs! (100 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       1 Nov 2010       11642

“The Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear took place on October 30, 2010 on the National Mall in Washington, DC. It was led by Jon Stewart and an in-character Stephen Colbert. It was a combination of what previously were planned as separate events: Stewart's Rally to Restore Sanity and Colbert's satirical counterpart, the March to Keep Fear Alive.”

Apparently, around 215,000 people gathered for this event (if you want to know more about it, Google it or search in Wiki…).

 

Anyway, here are 100 of the best signs you could see at the Rally To Restore Sanity And/Or Fear.

This is the first know photo of a human being. It is a Daguerreotype that was taken in 1838 in the Boulevard du Temple in Paris by the inventor of the process Louis Daguerre. This process involved exposing a chemically treated metal plate for 10 minutes. There were other people and carriages in the photo but because they were moving, they didn’t show up.
