Theo Jansen: Strandbeest

Theo Jansen is a biologist turned artist who creates amazingly evocative "animal" sculptures. We got to see his work "in the flesh" a few months ago at MassMOCA. I'm in awe! Here is his website: http://www.strandbeest.com/

Don't miss the videos of his work walking on the beach!

Phun with Physics

Phun is meant to be a playground where people can be creative. It can also be used as an educational tool to learn about physics concepts such as restitution and friction.

You can download Phun and play around with it yourself!

Venus Magazine: Emerging Creativity

I came across Venus Magazine one day when I was paroosing the magazine section at Newbury Comics in Cambridge. When I saw it, the cover had an amazing pic of Dita Von Teese and promises of great DIY projects within. I couldn't resist the allure of a magazine focused on "women in music, art, film, fashion, diy culture"! Really really cool! Check it out:
