Mad Quickies: Dinosaurs in High Heels, Jedi Knight With a GoPro, Infinite Dioramas and So Much More!
Hey gang, there were so many cool things to share this week that I had to pare it down to these fine links below. So much good stuff here, so you should probably dive right in. Go!
I saw this thing about Arabic numerals and angles on Facebook the other day and was skeptical. Well, here’s confirmation that I was right to feel that way.
Do you know what the Jurassic Park series of films has been missing? You guessed it – high heels! On everyone! And everything! Even the dinosaurs! -Via Anne
I am notorious for my feature-length showers. London-based designer Elisabeth Buecher has come up with a way to kick me (and you) out of the shower when we overstay our welcome with these conceptual shower curtains.
These phantasmagorical GIFs by Gustavo Torres, aka Kidmograph, have me feeling like I’m stuck in a dystopian movie in the 1980s. In a good way. -Via Donna
I want to know how these are made – Guillaume Lachapelles has created these seemingly infinite, 3D printed dioramas. They are delightful and creepy, as are all things that portray The Infinite.
What would it look like if a Jedi Knight strapped on a GoPro camera just before battling some stormtroopers, speeders and AT-ATs? It would look just like this. (Embedded below for good measure)
The dioramas look like they’re variations on “infinity mirrors”. The basic construction is a light source sandwiched between a one-way mirror and a regular mirror. Here are a couple Instructables:
