Beautiful ceramic design…
People are consuming more and more. All materials and resources we are using, are not in proportion to our own bodies, and our size in relation to the planet we are living on. For a long time, the human body has been the measure for many things, f.i. distances and weights. In this project, my body becomes a measure for consumption.
The star car at this year’s Fairfield Concours d’Elegance will wear the Spirit of Ecstasy on her hood and no less ecstatic a design all along her body. The 1939/47 Rolls-Royce Phantom III “Vutotal” Cabriolet by Labourdette, now in the John Rich Museum collection, started off as a standard Phantom III designed by Henry Royce. It was re-envisioned by coachbuilder Hooper and Co. in 1938 with a Sedanca de Ville body style, then showed off in Europe before being tweaked for the U.S. market.

Yes it’s wrong but A Hamburger Today has the guild on how to recreate one of the best burgers around (and unfortunately restricted to the east coast of America, for now…)
The patties are covered with the cheese, then the caramelized onions are applied liberally to a single patty before topping it with the second, fusing all the elements together into a single cheesy, beefy, sweet, oniony, gooey, salty, oozy, crispy, meaty, savory, melty, delicious mess. American food don’t get much better than this!

From my own panoramic shot on the Sunday of this years Glastonbury, over looking the crowd and Stevie Wonder on stage. Good times!
For more information on how to create planets from panoramics, check out this guide
Awesome gallery of photos and a love guild on how to try this yourself
All you need to do to pull this sort of thing off yourself is have a camera that can do long exposures, a tripod, and a flashlight (or anything that generates light).

Every few months, a bike comes along that completely stops me in my tracks. Like this one: an Art Deco-influenced machine that could have come straight from the pen of Harley Earl. The bike caused a stir last month when it appeared at the Rhinebeck Grand National Meet, a popular motorcycle show held a couple of hours drive north of NYC. Word started to spread. And with the help of a few Bike EXIF readers, we’ve tracked down the details—and got some shots thanks to Grail Mortillaro of the excellent grassroots chopper blog Knucklebuster.

The five-door fastback model with the rakish roofline will provide Audi with a rival to the upcoming, second-generation Mercedes-Benz CLS (see photos here). It will slot between the A6 and the A8 in Audi’s range, in much the same way that the A5 Sportback is positioned above the A4 and below the A6.

Time for some Tron Legacy Awesomeness! Disney has released some great new promo photos for the highly anticipated sequel to Tron. The images seen above and below show us what some of these characters are going to look like when playing the classic disc game. These images don’t come from the movie, but they are designs to show us what these costumes are going to look like, and they look freakin fantastic!

There was a time when our designer toy collection was a little out of hand. While we never stood in line outside Giant Robot to score a limited edition run, we were hard pressed leaving the store without a purchase. And we aren’t the only ones who had (of maybe still have) a vinyl figure obsession. So what happens when a love for contemporary figurines meets a love of vintage tech. Yes, you just heard our heads explode.

On July 11, after a long trek eastward across the southern Pacific Ocean, the Moons shadow reached landfall in South America. In a total solar eclipse close to sunset, silhouetted Moon and Sun hugged the western horizon, seen here above the Andes mountains near the continents southern tip. To enjoy a good vantage point, the photographer hiked to a windy spot about 400 meters above a lake, Lago Argentino, climbing into the picture after setting up his camera on a tripod. At left, the sky outside the shadow cone is still bright. Below, the lights of El Calafate, Patagonia, Argentina, shine by the lake shore.
