Stunning Interactive Pond Filled with Computer Generated Koi Fish
Japanese art collective, teamLab, have created an amazing computer program that allows people to wade through an interactive pond filled with computerized koi fish. According to teamLab, “ The movement of the koi is influenced by the presence of people in the water and also other koi. When the fish collide with people, they turn into flowers and scatter. The trajectory of the koi is determined by the presence of people, and these trajectories trace lines on the surface of the water.”
What’s crazy is that this interaction between individuals and the “fish” is “neither pre-recorded nor on a loop.” Essentially, human interaction with the installation is what causes the changes in the artwork, and it “can never be replicated, and will never reoccur.” Insanely awesome.
Take a look at this video to get a sense of how beautiful this installation is.
The installation is on display at the Odaiba Minna no YUME-TAIRKU 2016 Festival in Tokyo until August 31, 2013. I have to say that I’m bummed that this is an installation I can’t experience first-hand.

Wild Soldiers by Alexander Khokhlov and Veronica Ershova
War. This word can merely invoke the fear of death, loss and evil. But war is a perfect field for personal transformation. Because it is impossible to kill people and keep your human face. War changes people: transforming them to dangerous, cruel and unpredictable beasts. The consequences of war always remind us that humans are the most terrible animal of all. The Wild Soldiers series push issues of war and peace that are especially relevant today.

Vivid Hummingbird Close-ups Reveal Their Incredible Beauty
When it comes to birds, the terms “strong” or “beautiful” might inspire images of fierce eagles or decadent tropical parrots. But both of these birds will certainly find strong contender in hummingbirds, which possess a unique sort of delicate beauty and a mastery of avian maneuvers like no other. We created this list of 20 stunning hummingbird photos to show you just how beautiful they can be.
Capturing a photo of a hummingbird in flight with clearly focused wings can be very difficult, as some varieties are capable of beating their wings up to 52 times a second. This gives them the ability to hover and fly backwards – something that few other birds can do and that none have mastered the way the hummingbird has. via Boredpanda
