Istanbul: City of Seeds: Observatory: Design Observer Mobile It was generous of the The Building Information Centre (YEM) and 34Solo to host an xskool event in their city last week. Our starting premise, after all, was that Turkey’s 30 year long construction boom is losing momentum. True, the sound of jackhammers was pervasive in Istanbul during our visit – but the cold winds of the global crisis are making themselves felt. Back in 1995, Mayor Erdogan of Istanbul declared that a third bridge would be “murder” for forests and reservoirs around the city. What drives this ecocidal policy? Trouble is, just because a property bubble is Too Big To Fail does not mean it will not fail. A Next Economy: Already Here This is where xskool comes in – as a kind of social seed exchange of the next economy. In her book Life Rules, Ellen LaConte describes they ways that “nature unfolds the future from what is here now”. It was encouraging to discover just how many many intriguing social lifeforms flourish across Istanbul already. Centre and Hinterland
Explosive Q&A App Formspring Goes Multiplayer One of the things that could make casual, social Q&A sites even more fun is "multiplayer" features that allow you to interact with groups of more than one person at a time. Formspring has just added such a feature. The site now lets you pose the same question to more than one friend at a time. For example, I was going to ask my friend Jenna what her favorite restaurant in the city is, but I remembered that Bob and Gordon are also big-time foodies. You'll be able to ask these questions of multiple Formspring users as well as your friends and followers on other social networks, including Facebook, WordPress, Tumblr and Twitter. Formspring's growth has been nothing short of meteoric lately; in fact, we've been told that this app has just passed the 14 million users mark. For example, Formspring recently gave users the ability to export questions and answers to WordPress and MySpace. Do you use Formspring? [img credit crystaljingsr]
Current Anti Gravity Inventions and Experiments Each page of this section contains information on anti gravity devices or machines that are currently in use or being tested. This company below allows you to pay for anti gravity, in other words they take you on a flight on G-Force-One their aircraft. They then make you go weightless for about a minute or more, they do this by making special flight maneuvers. Gozerog-How Does Parabolic Flight Work? Weightless Flight (also known as Parabolic Flight) is achieved aboard ZERO-G's Boeing 727 aircraft named G-FORCE ONE. The maneuver is somewhat like a roller coaster in that the plane is initially pulled up to approximately 45 degrees 'nose high'. The weightlessness experienced by everyone inside the airplane is actually equivalent to the type of "free fall" you experience when sky diving. In addition to achieving zero-g or weightlessness, G-FORCE ONE can also fly a parabola designed to offer Lunar (1/6th) or Martian (1/3rd) gravity. Page 1 2 3 4 5 6

Our Favorite Typefaces of 2008 | Typeface Reviews It’s said that when launching a new ship, it’s bad luck if the ceremonial bottle of champagne doesn’t break. Well, if the ship in question is Typographica’s long-awaited redesign, then there is no need to worry, because this list — the site’s fifth annual accounting of the best in new typeface design — represents the proverbial bottle being blasted into oblivion, showering all onlookers with a selection of amazing typefaces (cue fireworks). Sensationalism aside, it’s significant that the ever-increasing quality in type design these days — dubbed by some as the new “golden age” of type — has caused this year’s list to supersede previous lists in many ways. For example, the new larger format of the site accommodates larger type specimens, appropriately showing more of each typeface’s beautiful features. Judging by this year’s list, it is probably safe to say that OpenType technology, 13 years after its debut, has officially arrived. — Nick Sherman
The $1b new town where nobody's home An artist rendering showing the $US1 billion scientific ghost town that will be developed in Lea County near Hobbs, New Mexico. Photo: AP A scientific ghost town in the heart of southeastern New Mexico oil and gas country will hum with the latest next-generation technology - but no people. A $US1 billion city without residents will be developed in Lea County near Hobbs, officials said, to help researchers test everything from intelligent traffic systems and next-generation wireless networks to automated washing machines and self-flushing toilets. Hobbs Mayor Sam Cobb said the unique research facility that looks like an empty city will be a key for diversifying the economy of the nearby community, which after the oil bust of the 1980s saw bumper stickers asking the last person to leave to turn out the lights. New Mexico Governor Susana Martinez speaks during the announcement of the ghost town. Advertisement The investors developing CITE were looking for open spaces. Gov.

Carlet Cleare /WXXI Adam Frank stands atop of the Wilder Building in Rochester, N.Y. Cities may be the defining element of human civilization. The path from hunter-gatherers in the Paleolithic era 25,000 years ago to the high-tech, high-wonder jumble we inhabit today runs straight through cities. As our cities have become more complex the physics embodying their behavior and organization has also become more nuanced, subtle and profound. About a month ago I walked down the streets of my hometown of Rochester, N.Y., to discuss a street-level view of physics and cities. Instead of just basic machines, the city becomes a vast interconnected system designed for turning energy into work. Before we hit the second law, it would be good to remember the first law, which tells us energy is always conserved. In a city you see this every day, all day. The second law is something else entirely. But it has its darker side, too.
