With such a history of horror, Parello’s new film, Dr. 420 – a humorous ‘stoner’ short comedy was a rather unsuspected change in the filmmaker’s rhythm, but his grand entrance into the “glorious tradition of filmmaking known as stoner cinema”, has turned into a very exciting and entertaining adventure.

Beautiful Futuristic Body Paintings

Beautiful Futuristic Body Paintings | Machinimania | Scoop.it

Imagine sitting still for 16-20 hours while your body is the canvas for an airbrush masterpiece. Michael Rosner is an American artist with an incredible vision who uses his airbrush to transform organic materials, including humans, into brilliant works of art. Using principles of architecture and geometry to create magnificent patterns, Rosner’s subjects are metamorphosed into strikingly beautiful trans-human entities.


Via Annie Brightstar
Henrik Safegaard - Cloneartist's insight:

A Chicago native, Rosner has been working as a painter, sculptor, and carpenter since 1996, when he relocated to Sacramento, after attending Savannah College of Art and Design in Georgia. He discovered his passion for painting the human form in 2006 and has been doing it with the assistance of his talented team of artists at Eye Level Studio in Sacramento, which he founded.

Scientists Create Single Pixel Camera For 3D Images http://t.co/juI7Jf6zvz
Henrik Safegaard - Cloneartist's insight:

Very interesting news.

 

Lead author on the paper Baoqing Sun said: “It might seem a bit counter-intuitive to think that more information can be captured from a detector which uses just a single pixel rather than the multi-megapixel detectors found in conventional digital cameras.

However, digital camera sensors have a very limited sensitivity beyond the spectrum of visible light, whereas a single-pixel detector can easily be made to capture information far beyond the visible, reaching wavelengths from X-ray to TeraHertz.

How Much Would It Cost to Build the Starship Enterprise?

How Much Would It Cost to Build the Starship Enterprise? | Machinimania | Scoop.it
So you want to build the Enterprise. Don't we all! Well good news: according to some quick, messy, napkin math, it's possible. Kind of. The bad news? It's going to be stupid expensive. But not unfathomably so!
Henrik Safegaard - Cloneartist's insight:

"Since we can't predict the future, or even come close to gauging the cost of development for revolutionary new inventions or substances like warp and impulse drives, shields, and teleporters, we're going to stick to what we know. It might not make us a real Enterprise, but it's about as close as you're going to get."
