Hine Mizushima: Unnatural History Museum

Posted in craft, geek, plush, science with tags , , , on May 11, 2013 by shewalkssoftly

I am crazy about all of Hine Mizushima’s work. She creates some of the best, most imaginative needle felted projects out there in the craft universe. My new favorites…these lab specimens:

Stephen Colbert Interviews Neil deGrasse Tyson

Posted in geek, home, science, video with tags , , , on May 9, 2013 by shewalkssoftly

I rarely post interviews, no less interviews that run an hour and a half long, which should test to the quality of this video here.

Stephen Colbert and Neil DeGrasse Tyson are both extraordinarily entertaining and gifted human beings. Putting them together makes for a comedic, informative alchemy unlike others I’ve seen.

My dear fellow geeks, do not miss this if you haven’t already seen it!

What to post, what to post? Chuck Hodi’s subjects are so varied, though  within a dark, and by his own admission, lowbrow realm.

IV Decals by Little Love Medical

Kapow! Dana came across a great accessory line. Little Love Medical makes these great labels to ease the impact of that dreaded IV bag. Their theory is that “spending time in the hospital is difficult for patients, family and friends. Little Love Medical is here to make your stay as pleasant as possible by adding bursts of color and design to everyday hospital products.”

1960′s Retro Library Posters

Looking back at these posters from 40-50 years ago, it is difficult to fathom the possible demise of books for the masses. How cool would it have been to live back just that short time ago?

Despite the hiatus, Dana has expressed a couple of items for her wish list.

Beaker Cookie Cutters will no doubt give her hours of delight after recovery:

They may be found here, but are out of stock. Where else might they be found?

Next on the list is a bookish jewelry chest. Personally this humble ghost writer would prefer the literary choices run to more macabre tastes:
