Wire Anatomy

March 11th, 2012 | Brain, Robot

Federico Carbajal is an architect from Montreal who created these anatomical pieces from galvanized wire, stainless steel and acrylic.

Federico’s description of his work:

An exploration into the boundaries of space: volume, surface and line; of the immaterial form and its perception – its structure and deconstruction. A deep look at the human body, its anatomy and the appropriation of its symbols.

With the influence of the old masters and the early works of Alexander Calder, to current digital 3D media and architectural representation, these tridimensional hybrids bring together drawing, architecture and sculpture in order to create a coherent spatial entity.

Floating tridimensional sketches of the human body are drawn through space with different sheathes of galvanized wire mesh and are assembled and structured with architectural detail.

Spatial sketching allows for the possibility of new representations of images in space, exploring the void and the dematerialization of volume.

  The physical and metaphysical presence of the human body emanate through a combination of transparent planes and spatial lines.

I’m a fan of almost all interesting representations of human anatomy, and this work is no exception.  The wire heart is really great and surprisingly accurate.

The Most Astounding Fact - Neil deGrasse Tyson

Neil Degrasse Tyson is a bit of a hero of mine. He is an American Astrophysicist who earned his undergraduate degree from Harvard, Masters from The University of Texas at Austin, and his doctorate from Columbia University. He has devoted much of his life to science education and communication.

The video above is an edit of a TIME interview with Dr.

Tyson by Max Schlickenmeyer.  Time asked him “What is the most astounding fact you can share with us about the Universe?

” and this was his answer. Did he rehearse this?  Amazing!

It reminds me of the Sagan series videos I posted when I first started this site, found here.  Definitely try to watch those if you enjoyed this one.

Scientists and Their Drugs – Quiz!

March 8th, 2012 | Brain

I have figured out how to create a quiz for the site.  Try your hand at the first ever RobotSpaceBrain Quiz! It is rather hard, or at least it was for me, even after I created it.  If you can get half of them, I’m impressed.

 As a note: of course these famous scientists may have experimented with many drugs; however, these are the drugs for which they are MOST famous.

The scientists include: Sigmund Freud, Francis Crick, Richard Feynman, Thomas Edison, Paul Erdos, Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, John C.

Many Moons Embroidery

March 7th, 2012 | Space

Shaun Kardinal, based out of Seattle, Washington, is responsible for these fantastic embroidered Apollo images. He used photographs from an old Hasselblad catalog filled with astronauts from the late 1960’s missions that he had found in old antique store in his neighborhood.  From Kardinal:

I felt an immediate draw. Surely my love of Hasselblad’s cameras contributed to this, but there was a certain nostalgia I felt as well, even though I was born long after the events captured.

I knew for certain that I had to take it home with me, that I would find a purpose for it within my work.

That last image is of a Death Star if you didn’t notice…

I sure would love to find a magazine like that in an old store sometime.  And what Kardinal has done with the classic images is extraordinary.

For more images of the Apollo missions from Hasselblad, here is an online catalog.

Starfield

March 3rd, 2012 | Space

There have been some really great XBOX Kinect hacks since it was released back in 2010.  The video below demonstrates a space-inspired version from the French design group, lab212.

Kinect has always been very friendly to developers as they’ve pretty much left their source code open for programmers to use.  I’m not sure any of these projects have really taken off yet, but it’s nice to see innovative concepts coming forward.
