Hasta La Ideas

In a truly romantic tale, artist Steven Spazuk says that the idea to paint using flames came to him in a dream. After his first attempt—which resulted in a page burnt to a crisp—he became obsessed with perfecting the technique. From there, he started……

Le photographe japonais Hotkenobi met en scène ses anciennes figurines de super-héros avec des objets de la vie de tous les jours tels que des canettes de sodas. La plupart de ses compositions à découvrir ci-dessous sont explosives et sont complétées avec quelques effets spéciaux et une dose d’humour.

All Unitasker Wednesday posts are jokes — we don’t want you to buy these items, we want you to laugh at their ridiculousness. Enjoy!

The classic American TV commercial celebrated the accidental combination of chocolate and peanut butter. The result was “two great things that taste great together.”

That’s not what happens when you combine boots and sandals.

Redneck Boot Sandals combine cowboy boots and sandals into a single article of footwear. On their own, sandals are great. Cowboy boots are very nice as well. Together, however, we have a problem.

Let me note that I am not a fashion guru. I throw on some jeans, a T-shirt, and a baseball cap and call it a day. It’s even worse where footwear is concerned. I’ve got sneakers, a pair of shoes for work, and winter boots. So take my fashion advice with a grain of salt.

While boot sandals are cute as a novelty, I won’t be buying a pair. How about you?

You wouldn’t suspect a comedian and former talk show host would be an early adopter of 3D printing. But regular viewers of “Jay Leno’s Garage” know that for years, Leno has been using a 3D printer to help keep his collection of 286 rare vehicles up and running. While he can buy over-the-shelf parts for his McLaren P1 and Audi R8 Spyder, replacement items for his for his 1963 Chrysler Turbine concept car or one of his 1930s Duesenbergs are impossible to come by.

That’s why Leno has had engineer and former jet engine technician Bernard Juchli, his shop manager, scan old parts in need of replacement, 3D print them on-site in plastic, then send the plastic part to a foundry. The plastic is sacrificed to make a mold, and the replacement part is then cast.

Recently Leno has learned of a more efficient method. Here he brings in Bry Ewan, a rep from Stratasys’ Direct Manufacturing offshoot (think Kinko’s for all things digital fabrication) to explain how their Direct Metal Laser Sintering process is right up Leno and Juchli’s alley. Here Ewan discusses the pricing, materials available, and where an economy of scale actually does exist within the digital fabrication world:

Bien connu des lecteurs de Fubiz, l’illustrateur et architecte italien Federico Babina s’est, cette fois, penché sur le sujet des maladies mentales. Dans cette nouvelle série intitulée Archiatric, il se sert de maisons aux contours volontairement simplistes afin de donner une forme à ces troubles parfois flous. Un projet plein d’imagination, comme il nous y a habitué.
