Snow Day

So I was going to have all of my final critiques today- all three of my studio classes were scheduled to finish up in a marathon 9am-10:30pm-or-so day- but classes were canceled due to an ice storm.

Instead, I have spent all morning looking at the Internet (and playing Moonbase Commander).
Here's what I found:

Photos of a French nuclear bomb test! The high-res ones are big enough for wallpapers.

Violin-playing robot!



Japanese art bikes.

Scenes from the Bible as if viewed through Google Earth.

Famous moments of the 20th century recreated by senior citizens.

RC planes made of kitchen supplies.

The Gomboc- a geometric shape with only one stable resting point and one unstable resting point. It's self-righting!

Things Other People Accomplished when They Were Your Age.

Sweet furniture sculptures





I hate 80's music, but love stop motion animation.

A bunch of neat papercrafts, many of which are free for .pdf download.

Whiskerino.org chronicles big manly men growing out full beards. With pictures.

First-ever footage of the long-eared jerboa, a rare nocturnal rodent that is cute.

The Terrible Secret of Animal Crossing.

Final College Fantasy- a real-life recreation of Final Fantasy. In college.

What I Killed Today - a blog by a veterinarian.
