Sneakers that Sprout Flowers: The Biodegradable OAT Shoes

noreply@blogger.com (sangrecaribe) — Sun, 06 Mar 2011 22:57:00 +0000

Awarded second place at this year's Amsterdam Fashion Week's Green Fashion Competition, OAT Shoes is a biodegradable sneaker that actually sprouts when "planted" in the ground. That's right, when you're ready to toss out your worn out OAT sneakers you can bury them, water and with some sunshine, the soles will actually sprout flowers. The Dutch brand will launch this spring with their "Virgin" Collection in selected stores in Holland and Belgium, but will be available online for those who don't have a trip to Amsterdam planned!

Ray Caesar

Ray Caesar's biography

I was born in London, England on October 26 1958, the youngest of four and much to my parent's surprise, I was born a dog. This unfortunate turn of events was soon accepted within my family and was never again mentioned in the presence of polite company. I was a rambunctious youth as was natural to my breed but showed a fine interest in the arts as I drew pictures incessantly on anything including the walls and floors of every room of our tiny house. After some trouble with intolerant neighbors, my family was convinced to move to Canada and it was not long before the burgeoning town of Toronto became our new home.

Unfortunately the drawing continued to become somewhat atypical and aberrant and it was impressed upon me that such images might not be suitable for public viewing. In the summer of 69, there was a valiant attempt to stop me from doodling infamous contemptible fascist dictators upside down on my stomach with a ballpoint pen. I was consoled however by the encouragement to continue penciling in faces of flamboyant cowboys such as Gene Autry, Roy Rogers, The Lone Ranger and Tonto on my toenails but was expressly forbidden to talk to them at night.

It can be said that there are defining moments in a dogs life that can only be described as pivotal. Mine came when I received a gift of a flesh toned 12 inch plastic movable human doll attired in cheaply made military fatigues called "GI Joseph". I however named him "Stanley Mulver" and immediately resigned his commission from the light infantry. My Mother helped in this by sewing small business suits and leisure wear out of leftover Christmas fabric embroidered with holly and snowmen, tinfoil shoes and one tasteful Safari suit made of tight fitting powder blue rayon that proudly shone cobalt in the summer sunlight. It wasn't long before I had begun making enlarged wigs out of gray plasticine. These wigs soon became huge pompadours for Stanley and looked even more grand when I meticulously imbedded small hairs

Cool Kinetic Sculpture at the BMW Museum in Munich

noreply@blogger.com (sangrecaribe) — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 19:19:00 +0000

The installation shows 714 metal spheres moving in an interplay of mechanics, electronics and code. Each ball is connected to a thin steel wire, which in turn has an individual motor, setting the balls in motion. A software defines animation paths and motion. Initially the spheres move randomly, then begin to gather into forms which we can guess are shapes of BMW cars such as BMW 327, BMW 1500, BMW Z4 coupe concept and Mille Miglia.
