Here’s something you don’t see everyday: using a hundred iPhone cases, guitar maker ArtMayer has effectively created a guitar body worth thousands of dollars. But does it shred just as well as any guitar? Let’s find out! 1. Strip and Glue the iPhones Just to be clear, these aren’t brand new iPhones he’s using. Most of them have broken screens or have ceased to function; which suits him just fine. He guts the electronics of 107 iPhones, leaving only the cases to work with. He then glues the iPhone cases together in twos. These iPhone “blocks” will be used as makeshift LEGOs to form the bulk of the guitar body.…
With so much going on in the world, it’s easy to go out on a balcony, stare off to the horizon, reflect inside and say, “I have SO many awesome mixtapes!” Or had, if you tossed them in a fit of KonMari rage. If ya do have some stashed away, however, we have the PERFECT project for you. One that will remind you how much finger-rewinding a stuck tape reel added to your character and, may we say, lit up, your life. Maker Christopher wins for ‘Most Creative Reuse of Sentimental Box Finds’ with his 3D printed Cassette Lamp that hearkens back to better times of hair, spandex, and awkward…
3D printed structures have already made their way into the world of architecture with 3D printed houses to change our word and inspiring future 3D printed houses for other worlds. Now, the Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia (IAAC), the Barcelonan experimental and experiential center is making strides (pun intended) into the public construction sector with the world’s first 3D printed pedestrian bridge: Unlike some 3D printed creations, this bridge doesn’t have an obscure name. Heck, it doesn’t even have a name. Nevertheless, it has been standing tall at the Castilla-La Mancha Park in Alcobendas, Madrid ever since its inauguration last December 14, 2019. Measuring 39.3 feet (12 meters) long…
If you ever thought your tent was a little too small and uncomfortable to enjoy the outdoors, then this RV/Tiny Home option from Haaks Camper may spark your interest. Designed to fit on the back of a specialized Fiat Ducato, this two-story, pop-up camper doubles as a tiny home that can detach to provide a go-anywhere cabin and allow you to use the truck for hauling or exploring: Once you’ve found your ideal camping spot, sets of hydraulic legs under the camper prop it up and allow it to stand on its own. You can then use the truck to haul other items to your campsite, such as bikes, food…
The three were seen on a highland hill, naught but a blade unsheathed and triggered. Whose minds were reveled in the dire, and arrows spine bent higher than, both width and span, when tired grew, and tomorrows undo, until they uncovered these links. Pablo Dominguez – I featured him a year ago but he’s been busy. New concept art for ILM and more ships, travellers, and distant lands. Cardboard Robots – Instagram follow of the week. The intricate cardboard sculptures of Greg Olijnyk. A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts,…
The biggest problem with glow-in-the-dark and other types of luminous paints are how they lose their luminescence over time. With exposure to sunlight and the inevitable passage of time, these paints eventually lose their ability to project colors in the dark, eventually turning it into just another streak of dull paint. Instead of giving the paint luminous properties, aftermarket painter Andy Zsinko thought up a different method. By applying a base coat that activates when an electric current is passed through it, you can control when, how and where the paint lights up. This is exactly what LumiLor is – an electroluminescent paint which emits light via an electric current:…
