Nature is beautiful when you don’t live around it all of your life, but coming from someone who lived among the mountains and the trees and the grass for the better part of his short life, I can attest to the fact that the beauty of nature becomes sort of boring after you’ve seen it everyday for 10 years.

The Many Faces of Space Invader
Apparently the Space Invaders military is limited to only the solid colored aliens. So racist, I know. But there is a whole slew of Invaders we had yet to have seen up until now.

Spotted over at Design Miami, this exhibit features an LCD screen with a man drawing, then erasing, then redrawing a clock for every minute, or every hour for a loop period of 12-hours. I think I might have to pay somebody’s grandfather to come do this at my home 12 hours a day. How cool would it be to have ...
