Rolling Through the Bay
From Scott Weaver ” Rolling through the bay is an abstract toothpick sculpture of San Francisco. It has about 100,000 of toothpicks. The amazing part, is that is has four ping pong ball paths that roll through different landmarks of San Francisco. I have spent about 3000 hours on it over a period of 34 years and the only glue I use is Elmer’s. “
From popsci ” A Canadian company called UrtheCast (don’t ask us why it’s spelled this way) arranged a deal with Roscosmos, the Russian space agency, to bring two cameras to the International Space Station sometime later this year, where they will be mounted on the exterior. The video will be downlinked to Earth and broadcast online.”
Robert Alvarado Photography
From juxtapoz ” Robert Alvarado has a taste for something sweet, erotically inclined with a certain, tattooed, cotton candy contemporary edge. “I have always appreciated the female form and, growing up in the late 50′s early 60′s, I can recall looking at all the magazines with illustrations of women. I have basically turned those memories into the art form you see in my images today”. ”
