I recently received a link to this incredible automaton: The Waiting Hand. Something about the movement in this brilliantly crafted kinetic sculpture is so eerie…I love it…

Fritz Lang’s Metropolis (1927) is a classic favorite of mine.
Michael W. Kaluta published a fantastic series of illustrations in a 1988 Metropolis adaptation.

I’m generally awestruck by the beauty of nature wherever I go, but sometimes a photographer highlights this beauty by allowing us to see nature through a different lens.
Bert Myers takes x-ray photographs of common plants, shells, and natural artifacts. He gives an exquisite peek into the architecture of the natural world.

I can’t say I’ve ever thought much about bean bag chair design. Most seem to follow the standard sphere-loosely-stuffed-with-styrofoam-pellets formula. But look at THIS one, by chicindiedesigndotcom.
The details are knit, instead of painted! This would make a lovely addition to a cozy cabin in the woods (I’ve had trips to woodland cabins on the brain lately, for some reason).
See more photos of the lovely grizzly here.
