Edward Kinsella has some sick skills, I would give my left hand to have half of his talent. Check the rest of his work, it really is worth it.

Art is the only way to run away without leaving home - run with us !

Helena Hauss is a Paris based illustrator.

I graduated in 2012 form a small graphic arts school in the south of France, and after a few months of free-lancing in different advertising agencies (LEG, BETC, NOUVELOEUVRE), I’ve decided to try my luck at being a professional illustrator. 

I draw very large pieces of art (usually around 100cm x 70cm) that allow me to really go into details of hair, patterns and typography, all in bic pens, with bright and contrasted colors.

Photography by Deborah DeFranco

Deborah DeFranco is a 25-plus year student of Zen Buddhism from Rumson, NJ, USA. 

Most of my photos cathartically deal with yearning for acceptance and finding beauty within physical illness/degeneration, reframing of identity, impermanence/ death and longing fragility and vulnerabilty. This practice is the search for heart; opening to, and moving from, the heart. These are my visual prayers.

The series White Summer reveals a minimalist approach, in black and white of life and landscape. 
The absence of colors or disruptive elements enhances the body shapes, the silhouettes. 
On the water or in the sand, maybe even in the snow, those silhouettes appear like animated characters. 
The water makes the bodies dance and let a great place for imagination…

Orion Streamliner Was Inspired by Predatory Bird’s Body

Orion Streamliner is a cool concept by Mehmet Doruk Erdem. We don’t think it is meant for daily use, the extreme lowered body wouldn’t do well on rough surfaces. Orion’s shell is made of carbon fiber to reduce its weight, equipped with turbo charged engine to gain extra power. This motorbike focuses on high speed and comfort for long distance riding, the automatic suspension offers a possibility to set different riding positions for the rider. Just like predatory bird’s body, Orion body becomes smaller at the rear part to get more aerodynamic resistance. The main thing for Orion’s design combines old school design with its nice brown saddle and todays technology in one motorcycle.

GE Small Turbine Can Power a Small Town

GE has released good news, their engineers have designed and developed a small turbine that might be able to solve our biggest energy challenges. The model in the photo is not the real product, it’s a 3D printed turbine, but the real function version of the turbine is made of high-strength metal and about 150 pounds. For a turbine that can generate 10,000 kilowatts, the real unit can be said like a feather, because usually, it requires machines that typically weight several tons to do that. Doug Hofer, a steam turbine specialist at GE Global Research (GRE) mentions that one mini turbine can power a small town.

A compact machine that allows you to do amazing things, it would generate cleaner and more efficient power. The medium spinning of the turbine isn’t steam but carbon dioxide, squeezed, and then heated so that it forms a supercritical fluid. At this stage, the difference between gas and liquid has disappeared, it gives CO2 great properties that the turbine can harness for super efficient power generation.

GE Mini Turbine - Future Energy

This mini turbine certainly can help energy companies to turn CO2 into cleaner power. At this moment Hofer and his team are gathering ideas how they can scale the technology up to 500-megawatt range, this certainly can power a large city. Our energy demand would rise by 50 percent over the next 2 decades, we need to find solution fast, cleaner energy solutions to power our planet.
