How to be creative
An interesting article at Gaping Void on How to Be Creative.
Stuff that sparks ideas or imagination for me.
Make your own wind turbine
An article on how to create your own wind turbine — two years ago, I was searching the web to find plans to make one of these. I don’t know why; I just though it would be a cool thing to learn about. Don’t know that I’d ever actually attempt to make one myself.
blog for city-wide games
I’m going to have to look at this site in more detail later — it’s a site based in New York City that holds city-wide games, such as capture the flag, and man hunt. Sounds like fun. I know there’s a site like it in San Francisco, because Ernie from Little Yellow Different particpated at one time, I think. I’d have to comb through my archives to find the link.
Art Car Alert: Computer Keys
And here’s a link for my friends the art car artists: An art car covered entirely in computer keys.
Haunted Paper Toys
Really cool site that lets you download word files and use them to print out foldable gothic toys, like killer robots and haunted mansions. The site’s kinda slow, though, because it’s been mentioned on some big sites and thus is getting lots of traffic.
The Pod Caravan
VW owners might love this… Pod Caravans are retro trailers that resembled the old-fashioned teardrop trailers from the 50’s.
House of Books
Sculptor Livio De Marchi has crafted an entire house that appears to be made of books, including the furniture.
This is just too cool….
Unusual Cards — collage cards by Francesca Berrini are greeting cards made of old retro images combined together, like old school books with kids playing combined with dinosaur illustrations, or old pictures of 60’s casseroles overlayed on landscapes as “giant food.”
Hanzi Smatter
My friend Lori’s site pointed me in the direction of this: Hanzi Smatter is a site that looks at Chinese or Japanese language characters that Americans have adopted as logos or tattoos and analyzes what they really mean. Which is often not at all what the American intended it to mean.
Sort of their revenge for all the “Engrish” sites that make fun of non-English speakers use of English words.
Roomba
Stephanie bought a Roomba vacuum cleaner this weekend at Target, for half price. It was originally $150, marked down to $75. She needed a vacuum cleaner, and I was looking for a dust buster in the same aisle, so she picked it up. We were busy yesterday, so she didn’t have a chance to set it up and test it out, but it should be fun.
