Tycho – PBS

Tycho is one of my favorite electronic artist.  PBS comes from the album Past is Prologue which was released back in 2006 by Merck Records. Tycho keeps it Elegant and Sweet!!!

Past is Prologue is a newer release version of Tycho’s original full length album Sunrise Projector. Past is Prologue contains 2 more tracks from Tycho as well as 2 remixes by Nautilis and Dusty Brown. This album also features remixed and remastered versions of the original songs along with all new album artwork.

LEGO Printer

It uses a felt tip pen for ink!

This has got to be the coolest Lego invention ever. This guy designed,built, and coded it all from scratch including analog motor electronics, sensors and printer driver! He did it just for fun and worked on it for about 3 weeks at night after work. The print was going to have three colors but the inventor had to simplify because he only had four lego motors. The printer can print things at about 75 dots per inch and it prints less than a page per minute.

Pukas + Tecnalia = Surfing + Technology

Surfing is still a sport governed by feelings. The driving forces behind this joint project, PUKAS and TECNALIA, aim to “turn feelings into facts and figures” and provide as yet unquantified data that can be directly applied to improve the features of surfboards, the technical performance of surfers and/or measurement of parameters during competition.
