Moonwalkers vélib « Cabine13.com Juqu’au 14 aout à la Galerie des bibliotèques – Paris 4ème … M° Saint Paul ou Bastille / Tél : 01.44.59.29.60 Draisienne, vélocipède, tricycle, bicyclette… autant de noms qui ont accompagné et désigné les évolutions du vélo au cours des XIXe et XXe siècles. Plus de trois cents documents sont aujourd’hui réunis, à la Galerie des bibliothèques, pour retracer l’histoire de près de deux siècles d’une passion née en 1818, avec les débuts de la « machine à courir » du Baron Drais, jusqu’aux téméraires « tourdemondistes » d’aujourd’hui. Au-delà des évolutions techniques, ce sont toutes les singularités des voyages à vélo qui sont au centre de cette exposition. Quatorze cycles anciens (le plus ancien date de 1860) jalonnent le parcours de l’exposition. Cette exposition, s’inscrit dans le cadre des 150 ans de l’invention du pédalier, ou plus excactement de son adaptation au vélocipède par Pierre Michaux. Like this: J'aime chargement…
Australia Australia is a wonderful, beautiful island continent home to a peaceful, happy, and loving people... that Mother Nature hates so much she can taste stabbing.&&(navigator.userAgent.indexOf('Trident') != Just The Facts Australia is the largest island nation in the world, straddling the border of the Pacific and Indian Ocean. From the Abyss It Is Birthed Back in the 1770s the British Empire discovered Australia and, after finding it generally unfit for human habitation, proceeded to send all of their criminals and generally unwanted peasants there...because basic human empathy was not to be invented until the year 1821. After somehow managing to survive on Monster Island for over a century, it was considered only fair to grant the Australian citizens their freedom and on January 1st, 1901, Australia gained federation of its colonies, and The Commonwealth of Australia was born. Things in Australia that Will Kill You Everything. Ah, but the tropical beaches, you say! Hugh Jackman seems nice.
The Book Surgeon (15 pieces) Using knives, tweezers and surgical tools, Brian Dettmer carves one page at a time. Nothing inside the out-of-date encyclopedias, medical journals, illustration books, or dictionaries is relocated or implanted, only removed. Dettmer manipulates the pages and spines to form the shape of his sculptures. He also folds, bends, rolls, and stacks multiple books to create completely original sculptural forms. "My work is a collaboration with the existing material and its past creators and the completed pieces expose new relationships of the book’s internal elements exactly where they have been since their original conception," he says. "The richness and depth of the book is universally respected yet often undiscovered as the monopoly of the form and relevance of the information fades over time. Dettmer is originally from Chicago, where he studied at Columbia College. Update: Read our exclusive interview with the Book Surgeon here. Brian Dettmer's website

How to grow a Rainbow Rose, Naturally In 2004, two dutch companies, River Flowers and F.J. Zandbergen, experimented and successfully grew a rose that had its petals rainbow colored. As petals get their nourishment through stem, the idea is to split the stem into several channels and dip each one in a different colored water.
