Awesome Design!!!

When 12-year-old Max Wallack of Natick heard of WGBH’s Design Squad “Trash to Treasure” design contest, he was ready to give his best shot. He stole the show with his “Home Dome” innovation, which is primarily a shelter for the homeless or refugees made from plastic, wire and packing peanuts. This project addresses humanitarian need and it does it by removing non-biodegradable materials from our waste stream. The makeshift dwelling is in the form of a Mongolian yurt and features a built-in bed. For this innovative design, Max won $10,000, a Dell laptop, and a trip to Boston to work with engineers and see his design realized.

Since sculpture is primarily defined by the organization of space, this video seems quite appropriate...

"Fell in Love With a Girl" video by the White Stripes. Great... Music, video, sculpture, animation all rolling into one...

Richard Serra interviewed by Charlie Rose, 58 min. Fantastic.

Honda Cog Movie
This recent Honda commercial uses no digital effects. It all happened as you see it, on the 606th take. This video, the "Truffle Shuffle", and the art of Fischli & Weiss are inspired by the ideas and work of Rube Goldberg.

Dont miss this...!

Statuephilia: Contemporary Sculptors at the British Museum, featuring Damien Hirst, Antony Gormley, Noble and Webster, Ron Mueck, and Marc Quinn. Awesome work. Awesome video clips.

Former student project - Andrew Steingeiser

Idea: to engage the most space and create the biggest spectacle out of the lowest materials (except the computer and micro-controller, of course)
