Faking It

Joseph Warren — Wed, 28 Jul 2010 12:17:23 +0000

This unique device is used to simulate the flickering flash and glow of an HD television. Set it on a timer when you leave, and deter potential thieves who may otherwise enter your home. I actually think this is a great idea, especially since it swells and fades like a real TV, but uses 50 times less power to operate.

Beautiful Waves

These incredible images are from a collection of shore breaks by Clark Little. What crisp, clean pictures he captured, showing swirling sand, sea foam, mesmerizing crashing waves and transparent views through ripples of water. If these images don’t inspire you, nothing will.

Not Your Average Coins

Joseph Warren — Mon, 19 Jul 2010 09:00:54 +0000

Currency changes hands so many times in a day, but do you ever really take the time to see the details? This set of coins was designed to form a shield when assembled together. The simple, smooth, structured design is very elegant. I like the idea of making coins something you don’t just cram in your pocket, but something worth displaying as artwork.

Culinary Creations

Joseph Warren — Wed, 14 Jul 2010 13:36:52 +0000

Work on this scale usually is done by jewelers and fine artists but, in this case, it is the work of culinary artisan Stephanie Kilgast. These thimble-sized works of art would be a trick-of-the-eye if not for scale references such as coins, matches and fingers to show their actual size. Great detail and creative vision went into creating these tasty works of art.

Harness The Wind

Joseph Warren — Tue, 13 Jul 2010 10:00:56 +0000

See how this man has invented a way to harness the energy from wind to power clocks, lights and radios. Using the non-turbine wind alternative on a micro level, he shares how, for under $5, you can capture energy to power items that require little energy to operate. Then, he imagines the possibility of spanning the gaps of canyons with “wind belts” to do it on a large scale.

Designs In Nature: Bowerbirds

Take a look at what the Bowerbird does with its surroundings in the forest. Beetle wing covers, thatched orchids, moss, acorns and colorful flowers make up these wonderlands, designed by these great birds of New Guinea.
