  • Simon Schubert - Illustration by scoring and folding.
  • Mars Global Surveyor MOC2-368 Release -
  • Astrometry Bags a ‘Cold Jupiter’ - “We found a Jupiter-like planet at around the same relative place as our Jupiter, only around a much smaller star. It’s possible this star also has inner rocky planets. And since more than seven out of 10 stars are small like this one, this could mean planets are more common than we thought.”
  • Meteorites a Key to Habitability? - "the Late Heavy Bombardment (LHB) some four billion years ago wasn’t an average time. The research team used models of meteoritic impact rates during the bombardment to calculate that billions of tons of carbon dioxide and water vapor would have been delivered to Earth’s atmosphere each year over the entire twenty million years that spanned the LHB. "
  • INTERVIEW PROJECT - NEW EPISODE EVERY THREE DAYS - David Lynch interviews people and posts a video every three days for a year.
  • Weird Science - Boing Boing - "Our conscious minds display some of the same features as quantum mechanics. When we're not thinking about anything in particular, our thoughts evolve in a continuous, multi-universe kind of way—but when we focus on something, we carry out something like the quantum collapse that characterizes the process of measurement. "

Pretentious


Tuesday, June 2, 2009

“We’re deathly afraid of that stabbing word “pretentious,” the word that students use to curse each other’s ambition.  It’s a young person’s word, a shortcut-to-thinking word.

 
I’m a big fan of pretension.  It means “an aspiration or intention that may or may not reach fulfillment.”  It doesn’t mean failing upward.  It means trying to exceed your grasp.  Which is how things grow.”

- Warren Ellis

  • Possible site of free will found in brain - life - 07 May 2009 - New Scientist - "When a neurosurgeon electrically jolted this region in patients undergoing surgery, they felt a desire to, say, wiggle their finger, roll their tongue or move a limb. Stronger electrical pulses convinced patients they had actually performed these movements, although their bodies remained motionless."
  • NATURAL HISTORY OF THE ENIGMA - "Eduardo Kac, Natural History of the Enigma, transgenic flower with artist's own DNA expressed in the red veins, 2003/2008."
  • Lost in Space | Articles | Features | Fortean Times UK - "What really happened to Russia's missing cosmonauts? An incredible tale of space hacking, espionage and death in the lonely reaches of space."
  • POLAROID KIDD at NEEDLES+PENS - "Mike Brodie aka 'The Polaroid Kidd' is a somewhat accidental documentary photographer. By photographing his friends, their homes, and lifestyles, Brodie has captured a marginalized segment of the American population that's not so prevalent in main stream society. His haunting photos of hobos, punks, and squatters criss-crossing the country in boxcars are reminiscent of Horace Bristol's Grapes of Wrath era pics that captured migrant workers on their way to California ….except now with facial tattoos. "
  • Gliese 581d - Waterworld - "The planet is likely to have a makeup similar to Neptune or Uranus, which are dominated by ices of water, ammonia and methane. In the warmth of the habitable zone, these substances should form a sea thousands of kilometres deep"
