Mad Quickies 4.15

  • I love anything combining fossil imagery and typography. Andreas Scheiger does exactly that in Evolution of Type. His blog has all sorts of other beautiful eye candy. I particularly like his DIY business cards, repurposing old “boring” photographs found at a flea market.
  • Zoe Tilley Poster is drawing a beast a week. They’re a lovely mix of whimsical and accurate.
  • Andreas Franke has made a WW II shipwreck into an underwater art gallery. I want to learn how to dive just so I can see this!
  • The fabulous steampunk maker crew of the Airship Isabella is running a kickstarter for their new card game – Twisted Skies. Their concept art is beautiful, and they could use a bit of help to make their goal.
  • Have you ever wanted to reproduce the ultimate party trick? Make Magazine has a tutorial for a Water to Wine Cooler ! (Ability to walk on water or wine not included.)
  • What do you get when you combine MIT’s Sensible Lab, artists and drink geeks? You get a robot bartender, that’s what.
  • How did blogging make Maria Konnikova a better scientist? She answers this question in her new piece at Literally Psyched.
