The Slo-Mo Guys do this type of stuff all the time, but seeing paint move at 2500 FPS is pretty neat.
I used to read articles in Popular Science as a kid that proclaimed we would one day have flexible, high definition televisions that we could drape on a wall. Well, my friends, we’re getting there. LG just put their 55″ Curved OLED TV on sale for $14,999. It’s a whole lot of cash, but also as cutting edge as it gets. And as with any technology, look for prices 1/10th of that in a handful of years. What do you get for 15k? A gently curved monolith with amazing color and efficiency, using OLED display technology. It also has all of the 3D, ‘smart’ features you’d expect. All of this in a package that is as thin as a pencil.

There’s nothing quite like seeing a butterfly emerge from a chrysalis. It’s pretty magical. Now, scientists have given us a look inside a cocoon, to see how caterpillars transform, thanks to 3D scans. Via National Geographic:
Watch design is an interesting area of study, because its a small canvas, and people are always trying to tinker with the look and layout of the watchface. Not too often do you find a watch design that breaks barriers, but the Type 3 by Ressence certainly does that. Ditching physical hands for a series of rotating discs, it has a ‘you’ve never seen this before’ style, and the elements are sealed with a naphtha-type liquid that makes them appear to be projected directly onto the crystal. With no announced price, you can be pretty certain that this timepiece will be in the luxury price range. But that doesn’t mean it’s not high on the “I Want” list.

London-based artist and animator Nicos Livesey creates these mind-exploding animations using intricately built loafs of plasticine. The colorful clay is formed into morphing and shifting geometric patterns that are revealed as he slices and photographs the cross-sections at painstaking 2mm intervals. (via fastco)
