I wonder what the security employees will think when they see these messages in the x-ray monitors. Maybe, just maybe, they will see that we all just try to live our lives and the outcome will be different from what gizmodo envisioned.
Though I might be butchering the original concept of this work, I can definitely see some variations that feature political and historical figures and/or CEOs.
The downer is, even with one of this, I still can’t seem to get out of this hairy situation*. Oh you still don’t know what this does? It’s a wrench that can force people to say yes or no. Literally.
*Don’t mind my venting, it’s one of those life sucks moments.
If you don’t read Japanese I would just recommend visiting the gizmodo page. Apparently this is supposed to be the 1:1 scale model of the Scopedog mecha. Barring the supposedly 275mil 725mil budget for a real one this is probably the best thing we can have right now. Although at 1:1, it feels a bit too… tiny(?!) compared to the anime version.
Sounding Retreat (2008) by Linda Sormin
Ceramics & mixed media installation at Washington State University, Pullman, WA.
Linda was the teacher that got me interested in ceramics when I attended Emily Carr a couple of years ago. Her website just went live and you should go check it out.
TED never ceases to amaze me. I am so glad it decided to open it’s archive to public even though some talks are posted long after it was filmed. I guess they do need to keep the exclusivity to conference goers somehow. The above video was filmed in 2004 and was just posted on TED.com.
