Amazing 4-D Building is More Than Concept

Wednesday, June 25th, 2008

I blogged this a while back, but the amazing thing to me is apparently this neat concept WILL ACTUALLY GET BUILT. So far one in Moscow and (of course) one in Dubai.
In reading this new info update, there are so really awesome innovations that stand out:

One: of course, the power generation is amazing. I didn’t [...]

Underpass Design

Monday, December 4th, 2006

Got to this link through a “cybertrail” (to coin TV shows) that you can probably deduce if you have any ounce of internet hipster in you…
but anyway…
I live in Philly in a “up and coming” neighborhood, which just means there are still tracks of abandoned industrial wastelands all around. Unfortunately I also live right by [...]

Post-Flood Architecture: Building New Orleans 2.0

Tuesday, April 25th, 2006

I would love to see this building built. More attention to the parklands! And this would be perfect in an urban environment where people need green spaces to eat their lunch (perfect on gentle slopes) more than they need to throw frisbees…
It reminds me of the Kimmel center here in Philadelphia, that has a garden [...]

Here’s my favorite place to get desktop images:

They usually have the right contrast for you to still be able to differentiate the desktop icons.

How To Make An RFID Blocking Wallet

Sunday, January 1st, 2006

With the proliferation of RFID devices and related privacy concerns, it seemed due time to create the RFID Blocking Duct Tape Wallet. There are many ways to prevent Radio Frequency ID tags from being transmitted from devices. I often use my work badge and school ID which both contain RFID tags. With drivers licenses, credit [...]

Pumping Out Buttons

Have you been wondering where all those god damn little square buttons have been coming from lately? I have. I probably shouldn’t be giving this out, they’re like a disease:http://www.lucazappa.com/brilliantMaker/buttonImage.php

Martha Washington

Monday, August 29th, 2005

The answer to “Liberality”(the previous post below):
I read this graphic novel, “Give Me Liberty” maybe twelve years ago and thought it was fantastic.
Comic books can be so rigid and super heroes are too often belligerently patriotic cheese balls. Thank god for Give Me Liberty. Martha Washington is a black woman who has been stepped on [...]

Osama Bin Waldo

Monday, August 22nd, 2005

I think this is the best take on the Osama Bin Waldo idea. It was nicely done by whoever did it(no credits on the sticker). I peeled it off a wall when it was nice and fresh, but the winter has been hard on my crappy bicycle(where it’s been re-stuck).
Really - where the hell [...]
