…with the world’s sharpest manmade object.  This picture from the American Institute of Physics depicts a magnified view of a tungsten needle.  It may not look like much [in fact, it looks kinda like a snake....that's been put on an airplane], but I’m sure it can do a real number on you.  The photo comes with an explanation of the details.

Doing more with Rubber Bands

I do find myself oddly attracted to weird displays of art regardless of its usefulness or even the potential danger it may place to audiences or passersby.  Jasmine Zimmerman’s latest piece of installation art is composed of rubber bands – a lot of rubber bands….in webs….around New York…getting in people’s ways.  Dangerous? Definitely.  Good times?  Hells yea.  Link to the Flickr Albums below and a second link with the artist’s statement.

I really don’t want to get clotheslined by those.

Virtual Photorealism

A number of sites have already made mention of this set of fantastic photorealistic art…all created in photoshop [or other similar programs].  I have to admit.  There are some that I really can’t believe were made by a person behind a desk.  This stuff is just gorgeous.

Bugs don’t need to be big to take over the world

As can be seen by the photos linked below, Sweden appears to have a bug problem. Yes. Those are cocoons. And yes, those are larvae. Finally, yes [pre-emptively], the bugs are taking over everything.

See for yourself.
