Everyone Should Live In China At Least Once. Preferably, when you’re young and resilient, so you can handle the pollution. Living in the pollution will make you question how so many people can live like this, to have days where you can’t see the sun because of the smog. Living in the pollution will make you have a greater appreciation for the environment, and perhaps, to be more active in conserving it. Live in China, and be surrounded by the 1.4 billion people that inhabit the country. Surprisingly enough, there will be moments where you feel completely and utterly alone. You will learn the power of human interaction, and you will learn to appreciate your friends and family more. You might become more shameless, and be more prone to striking up conversations with strangers. Go and live in China, for the sake of wholly immersing yourself in a culture where the language is completely different, where people are glued to their cellphones and iPads, where most people grew up without a sibling.

New transparent solar cells can be used on windows, smartphone screens Bec Crew Thursday, 21 August 2014 This new type of transparent solar cell can be used to cover windows, buildings or smartphone screens to produce solar energy.
Named a transparent luminescent solar concentrator and developed by researchers in Michigan State University in the US, this material can be used to cover anything that has a flat, clear surface. Transparent solar cell technology has been attempted before, but the energy the cells produced was poor and the materials they were made out of were highly coloured. "No one wants to sit behind coloured glass,” said one of the researchers behind the technology, chemical engineer Richard Lunt, in a press release. The new transparent solar cells are made from tiny organic molecules that absorb invisible wavelengths of sunlight such as ultraviolet and near infrared light. Not only are they transparent, these solar cells are also flexible. Debatte Narzissmus und Langeweile: Kreislauf des ewigen Blödsinns - taz.de.
Debatte Narzissmus und Langeweile Wir dürfen nicht zugeben, dass wir gelangweilt sind. Wir müssen immer etwas tun. Immer immer immer. Tippen, klicken, chatten, joggen, trinken. So gelangweilt, dass man taub und stumm wird. Bild: prokop / photocase.de Ich muss euch etwas gestehen. Es gibt keinen langweiligeren Gedanken – ich komme später noch einmal darauf zurück. Wovon ich gelangweilt bin? Es tut mir leid, aber es ist wahr: Das alles langweilt mich so sehr, dass ich taub und stumm werde. Unsere Gesellschaft belohnt Narzissmus und nicht Individualismus. Je mehr wir tun Gelangweilt zu sein bedeutet nicht, gleichgültig zu sein. Es erschöpft uns, dieses Spiel, in dem wir das begehren, was alle begehren. Mit Erzkonservativen, die auf die Straße gehen, begann in den USA der Aufstieg einer rechten Bewegung. Ah, sagt ihr.

Mankind’s relationship with nature is a difficult one – we must use it, live in harmony with it, protect it and protect ourselves from it. These visually striking images that we collected of tree roots colliding with concrete are beautiful symbolic representations of this complicated relationship. It’s hard to say what it is exactly about tree roots that capture our imagination, but they have done so for thousands of years. They snake through many world cultures’ folk-tales and legends and take root in our symbolic vocabulary. The slow but sure force with which they crush and overcome concrete (and sometimes even steel) inspires visions of a natural reclamation of the civilized world, and their serpentine forms inspire visions of rivers and lightning.

Many people complain about advertisements as an obnoxious way for companies to invade our everyday lives and cram their products down our throats, but that’s not all that advertisements are good for. The advertisements on this list are excellent examples of effective advertising strategies for social issue campaigns that let their voices be heard. A well-made advertisement is designed to grab your attention and to remain in your memory long after you’ve left it behind, and that is exactly what many of these social causes need. Getting people to think and worry about various social and environmental issues (or even simply getting them to be aware of them) is important for raising public supporting and affecting meaningful changes.
A few of these ads are, in fact, commercial ads, but it’s still nice that they champion socially or environmentally aware causes/products. Just like with commercial advertisements, having just the facts is not enough. Stop The Violence: Don’t Drink And Drive. CNA - Speaking Exchange. “Das radikalste Haus, das ich je gebaut habe!” – House of the Infinite | Interview. Welcome julia and how to make a repeat pattern.
Hello hello. thank you Grace for having me this week! I am very excited to be here. Besides introducing you to some cool artists, giving sneak peeks and before and afters of some friends homes, and sharing my favorite new product finds, I thought it would be nice to share some of the things I have learned along the way of being a illustrator/pattern designer. One of the questions I frequently get emailed is -how do you make a repeat pattern? I thought it would be fun today to do a little tutorial showing you how simple it is even with a very complex drawing. And you don’t even need a computer!
(I usually do my repeats on the computer but today I’m doing it the way I was first taught.) On a clean piece of paper draw a design in the middle of your paper without letting any of the drawing touch the edges- this is very important. Once you finish the middle space as much as you want you are going to cut your drawing in half- scary I know- but that’s why computers are helpful. Www. miyokoshida .com. Cosas cool.
