It’s the Friday Quickies… Surf’s up!
- Goodbye, Døg of Evil. “I’m outta here, suckers.” Condolences to the FDO and the Evil Queen from all of us at the Lab.
- CERN badass, Fabiola Gianotti hunts the Higgs boson. {via Rebecca}
- Fabian Oefner created Millefiori, a micro-series of ferrofluid watercolors suspended in a magnetic field. Video, a must-see! An interview here. More links here.
- Extinct birds dressed in fashions from the year of their demise.
- And then there’s paper bird anatomy!
- The artist known as Vanadium created Game of Thrones sport tees.
Lots more, plus a dubstep dispute…
- A LEGO forest in the Australian Outback. You heard me.
- A huge photoset of Chinese firecracker labels. Seahorses? Spaniels? Zebras? Wha?
- Michael C. Hsiung draws really cool stuff. He’s part of the upcoming Dude, Monsters show at Think Tank Gallery.
- Was Dark Matter one-upped by the Higgs? No matter. Check out the story on dark tendrils. And here’s a better view of the 3D map of the universe.

Seeing Beyond the Human Eye
from the page
Technology defies the boundaries of human perception. From photomicrography to astrophotography, size and distance are no longer barriers, and through slow-mo and timelapse, we are allowed to see time and humanity in a new light. Through our curiosity and thirst for the unknown, the beauty of the universe can now be explored beyond the limits of the naked eye.

These tiny 3D printed cars were printed on the Objet Eden 3D printer and scale down from 4cm in length to a tiny 1cm in length. Even in the tiniest car, the wheels remain fully functional and there is no deformation of walls or loss of fine details – highlighting the enormous power of Objet’s 3D printers to turn CAD designs into visually and functionally accurate prototypes.
