Venice in Lego.

Venice in Lego.

In our childhood, we all had our share of fun & we must have made cars, trucks, planes, trains, buildings, castles, sculptures, ships, spaceships, and even working robots using these Lego pieces.
But when you mix the Queen of the Adriatic", "City of Water", "City of Bridges", & "The City of Light" with Lego we get 'Venice in Lego' something which Lego fans would love to create.

Virtual Windows.


What if only your imagination limited what you could see outside your windows? Thinking of this, Ryan Hoagland came up with the idea of creating a 'virtual window'.
The Virtual Windows above consists of eight 15" LCD panels connected via custom-built cables to two nVidia Quadro NVS 400 PCI video cards, each with four DVI outputs. The LCD backlight inverters are driven by their own power supply (sitting on top of the PC) and the panels get their 3.3v power from the PC's ATX power supply. The total desktop resolution is 3072x2048. A small Visual Basic app cycles pre-cut images every 15 minutes & Windows manages the arrangement. The only reason the cables are visible is because the fireplace is in the way and that wall isn't due to be remodeled for quite a while. How to go about it?

Step 1: Proof of concept.



Step 2: Power for backlight inverter.



Step 3:Custom video cables.



Step 4: Four panels in a prototype configuration.




Step 5: Build the window frames.




Step 6: Install them on the wall.





Cool isn't!

Beer Can Chair.

How to make a beer can chair?
Step one: Obviously you need lots of beer cans. So you need to drink lots of it before we start this.
Wash all the cans before you stick them or the chair is going to smell in a few weeks.
Done with this, next you will need lots of glue & perspex.
Gluing may be a tiring job & at times there may be a problem when 2 cans are to be stuck at an angle.
One thing should not be forgotten, that it needs large amount of cans & it took about 3 months to complete this.
Though once its done, you may opt for a few rubber pads on the seating area which will provide the grip & cushions on the chair for some comfort.
Now that we got a beer chair anyone interested in making a footstool to accompany the chair?

Giant Jellyfish.

We do agree that giant jellyfish do exist, such as the ones that sometime back appeared off the coast of Japan, but those were about the size of a washing machine, not the size of a truck.
So are some of these works of photoshoped?

The Great Banana Challenge.

The Great Banana ChallengeA bunch of neighbors get together for a party & after a few drinks the girls challenge each other to see who can fit the most banana in her mouth at once. The guys face watching the girl in blue do this is classic.
Though this video is humorous but still its suggestive, & after watching this video we are still in a dual mind whether this should be NSFW or not?

A Simple Exam.

Its always not a good option to rely on probability while choosing answers from multiple choice. Why? Just check this out!
Click on image to enlarge.

A Simple Exam
Dear Michael,

Every year I attempt to boost my students' final grades by giving them this relatively simple exam consisting of 100 True/False questions from only 3 chapters of material. For the past 20 years that I have taught Intro Communications 101 at this institution I have never once seen someone score below a 65 on this exam. Consequently, your score of a zero is the first in history and ultimately brought the entire class average down a whole 8 points.

There were two possible answer choices: A (True) and B (False). You chose C for all 100 questions, in an obvious attempt to get lucky with at least a quarter of the answers. It's as if you didn't look at a single question.

Art with Fruits.

We have seen the Vegetable Art & now we have art with fruits or rather with the orange peels. Though the origin of these images aren't known & so is the case of the artist who created this really interesting art using orange peels. Till we saw these images we never thought that orange peels might also be used as a medium to create art. Check out this magnificent art.

Greenery On Keyboard.

So how about growing some greenery right next to your computer on your working desk? But whats so special about it? And how about if we say here we are going to use a keyboard instead of a pot to grow this greenery, does it make any difference! Yes you got it right a computer keyboard.

So cut some papers & place them in between the keys as a support for the soil which we are going to put in the next step for the greenery to grow.
Whats next; adding soil on the paper which we have placed on the key board.
Now we need to sprinkle some seeds & do remember to water the soil in a control manner.
Wait for the seed to germinate.


Isn't this beautiful? So can we say now we have an eco-friendly keyboard, though it wont be working!
