Living Light Sculpture Reveals Air Quality of Seoul Check out how a retro glass sculpture maps the city’s air quality ! In the center of Seoul ’s Peace Park , which is located across from the Korean World Cup Stadium, lies a very extraordinary sight: an outdoor glass canopy called the Living Light Sculpture. Created by Soo-in Yang and David Benjamin of The Living , and commissioned by the Korean Ministry of Environment, this amazing sculpture is more than just a fantastic piece of art. It actually projects up-to-date information about surrounding cities and their air quality. The glass skin on the sculpture is a map that covers 27 local neighborhoods, and every 15 minutes certain sections light up to tell you which city has the best and worst air quality. The coolest thing about the sculpture is that you can send a text message of a certain area code to the Living Light Hotline, and then minutes later you’ll receive a reply back that tells you the area code’s air quality. digg
Pinterest Tested: Tub Cleaner Wow! When I wrote this post, I had no idea that it would go viral. It is by far my post popular post! It has been awesome to share this fantastic cleaner with so many new friends! Today I am testing this PIN: THE TEST: The claim in this Pin is that you can spray on a solution of one part vinegar and one part dish soap, leave it for an hour, then wipe your tub clean. I am skeptical of Pinterest posts like this because the claims are so fantastic. So I mixed up a solution of one part Dawn dish soap and one part vinegar, sprayed it on half my tub (so I could compare the two sides for more clear results). Score! And no scrubbing! THE RESULTS: This is one Pin I feel I can recommend whole-heartedly. P.S. Update: I tried using a different kind of dish soap and it still worked, just not as well. I just saw the coolest thing to add to this post: put the Dawn/vinegar solution in one of those dish scrubbers that has soap in the handle and a sponge on one end.
I feel melty EDIT 11/5/2012: We are no longer selling custom crayon pieces in our Etsy shop. We are now focusing on a new jewelry project, so please check that out and we hope you enjoy the tutorial below! Edit: We are now selling custom crayon pieces in our Etsy shop! Here’s our contribution to the melted crayon craze on Pinterest. Anyway! He filled in in with marker, and then we taped some saran wrap around a piece of cardstock to make a run-off barrier for the top of the umbrella. We pulled out all the blues and greys from three boxes we got on sale for $2.50 each at A.C. Then it was just a matter of putting the crayons through the gun–the pretty-but-stupid impulse-buy glue gun that barely works, so I didn’t ruin my good one. The hardest part was removing the guard and fixing the wax around it. Yay! Like this: Like Loading...
Art Crush : Adam Oehlers Illustrations - Art Crush By Vivianne Lapointe 28 Mar 2012 @ 9:52 am | Categorized: Art Crush, Live_Art> Adam Oehlers has a wild, wild imagination. The UK-based illustrator and sculptor describes his work as “all part of a world that is not so different from ours, a grim, cobbled place that is trapped in its own time, with some little elements of odd magic which creep in at the edges.” His scenes seem straight out of a fairytale gone wrong, with mad scientists, scary robots, filthy bookcases and sad little girls which are equally creepy and charming.
In living color: Ars reviews the hacker-approved Philips Hue LEDs Philips LED-powered Hue lights are awesome. Even after a couple of weeks of almost non-stop fiddling, the programmable multicolored bulbs continue to surprise me, though probably not in the ways that Philips originally intended. It's taken an alarmingly short amount of time for me to grow to consider them an indispensable component of my home office. The kit The fancy wirelessly controlled devices launched just before Halloween this year and are currently sold only at Apple Stores. The starter kit, pictured above, features a picture of a Hue bulb on the front backed by a color wheel, which you can slide around to make the bulb change colors. Inside the starter kit are three Hue bulbs, the wireless bridge that runs them, an AC power adapter, and a short length of cat 5 cable for connecting the bridge to a network switch. The hookup Setting up the kit was easy. The app only works via Wi-Fi with your LAN by default. The app The lights are assigned colors from the scene.
