Bugs Make Art: Photos

Entomologist Steven Kutcher is a Hollywood “Bug Guy,” serving as a consultant in movies like “Jurassic Park,” “Arachnophobia” and “James and the Giant Peach.”

In the 1980s Director Steven Spielberg needed a shot where a fly walks through ink, leaving footprints.

Kutcher began experimenting for the scene, which led to his interest in prints created by insects.

This is just too cool! Pass me the cockroaches! I have a masterpiece to crawl.

braiker: Mr President: Kanye West or Jay-Z?:

braiker:

In an interview with The Atlantic, Obama was asked to choose his preferred rapper: Kanye West or Jay-Z? Ignoring for a moment the fact that this is a false binary (unlike, say, boxers versus briefs), here’s the president’s excellent and revealing reply:

“The president smiles. ‘Jay-Z,’ he…

Leica Portrait: Joel Meyerowitz

An award-winning street photographer who has been creating memorable images in the great photojournalistic tradition since 1962, Joel Meyerowitz pioneered the use of color in this slice of life genre, and his classic book on Cape Cod, “Cape Light” was instrumental in changing the prevailing dismissive attitudes toward color photography. Within a few days of the 9/11 attacks on The World Trade Center, Meyerowitz began to create an archive of the destruction and recovery at Ground Zero that consists of over 8,000 images of the aftermath of the tragedy. In this latest Leica Portrait video, Joel shares the story of his transition from junior art director to legendary photographer.

descroissants:

Derweze, also known as the door to hell, is a 70 meter wide hole in the middle of the Karakum desert in Turkmenistan. The hole was formed in 1971 when a team of soviet geologists had their drilling rig collapse when they hit a cavern filled with natural gas. In an attempt to avoid poisonous discharge, they decided to burn it off, thinking that the gas would be depleted in only a few days. Derweze is still burning today
