Transformers Flash Drive

Just finished looking into where I could get some of these. Evidently an online store based in the US used to sell them but sold out in a matter of weeks. The only places you can get them now are sketchy overseas sites. I just ordered one… fingers are crossed that I get something like this picture, lol.

Another Tribute to MC Escher (with LEGOS!)

As mentioned in a previous post, I am a big fan of MC Escher and tributes to his work. One of his most famous works is titled relativity and it shows an impossible scene of multiple surfaces being the ground where gravity pulls the occupants:

The other day I stumbled upon this amazing image that pays tribute to Escher with LEGOS! It was made by Andrew Lipson and Daniel Shiu. You can read more about the project at Andrews website.

The craziest thing is how they made it! The lego creation extends in lots of directions, needed a lot of support and involved some really creative lighting.
