Written and directed by Carlos Lascano, The Can was realized for a program organized by Red Bull and the University of Applied Arts in Vienna. We’ve also featured Mr. Lascano’s work in the past when he released A short love story, a short film that was produced using similar animation techniques.
This week we bring you offerings from the craftier geeks among us. As the owner of a twelve-foot-long crocheted Doctor Who scarf, I have a lot of appreciation for this kind of work. 127.0.0.1 is where the heart is.

An amazing video about the Hubble Deep Field, ending with a flythrough of its representation in 3D, rendered using the measured redshift of the picture. Even though the camera seems to be slowly drifting among the galaxies, it belies the fact that the viewpoint is hurtling through the universe at a speed of around 200 […]
By Andrew Sparkes Guest Blogger As part of an on-going series, we’ll be looking at the features that top hardware, software, and websites already have and imagining the features it would be logical and useful to add in the next update.
