WHAT DOES RANDOMNESS LOOK LIKE?
Random Walk asks this question and presents experiments in mathematics and physics, showing the mysterious interaction of chaos and order in randomness.
The project Random Walk simulates randomness in visualizations, which are easy to understand. In this way, it delivers insight into a phenomenon, which has so far remained unexplained.

Zander Blom | The Travels of Bad
Zander Blom was born in Pretoria in 1982 and currently lives in Johannesburg. Working as an artist since 2002, Zander’s physical output includes painting, drawing, printmaking, installation and photography. I’ ve been impressed by his irruent and irregular geometry, always balanced.

The bar's interior, designed by Concrete (the architecture firm responsible for the Netherlands' award-winning Citizen M hotels), exudes a chic industrial aesthetic that showcases the various offerings available behind gleaming glass doors.
Minibar's novel setup is an upscale revival of the automat concept that combines the convenience and instant gratification of helping oneself, along with the social benefits of a lively public atmosphere. It's definitely a sleek example of thinking outside the "bar."

A prime example of the way global economic anxieties are already showing up in art is the group show "Boxed In," the latest presented by Plaztik Mag and Factory Fresh, in which artists created their cardboard dream home.
Alison Corrie, best known for her gorgeous design work and delicate collages, built a beautiful gyspy caravan, inspired by those she saw on her travels in Southern France. Artist Morgan Sheasby, created a miniature version of a log cabin, based on a design for a real log cabin he plans on building in upstate NY one day. While made out of cardboard, the structure is a testament to his architectural craft. Noah Sparkes took full advantage of the challenge with his vagrant interpretation of Buckminister Fuller’s geodesic dome, complete with Astroturf and internal lighting.
A cardboard bodega from Skewville offers bargain goods for sale, while CiscoNYC amazes people with a beautifully crafted, cardboard robot living among a cityscape.
While hopefully not a reality for most artists as we continue to trudge through the down season, the show is noteworthy in its interpretation of making the most out of nothing during hard times, resulting in a beautiful collection of work that challenges both the medium of cardboard and how we inhabit our own spaces.

This is just fucking insane. Watch this samurai cut things in slow motion. You might wanna’ put some pillows on the floor to cushion the blow when your jaw drops.

The Apache was a gun/brass knuckles/knife thing that was sold from 1870 - 1900. Who’s bright idea was it to halt this thing’s production!? Then again, it looks pretty easy to shoot yourself with one of these, so maybe it was for the best.
