Yes, standing up for the rights of animals and including animal rights in the body of legislation is certainly a sign of even more control by man over nature, but how much further will this interference go? Will the eating of meat become equivalent to a [...]

Say hello to yet another collection of brilliantly put together Pantone porn. Instagramer, dschwen is driving the Pantone Pairings Project, one swatch at a time. The simplicity and constraints around his pairings are the real power-punches. As a sucker for anything Pantone, the gawking that followed my find of dschwen’s work doesn’t need explaining.

Phil Plait’s Bad Astronomy blog on Slate never fails to fascinate, and one of his recent posts really jumped out at me. Blame it on the picture that came with it, showing a malevolent-looking 1,250-mile wide behemoth hurricane on Saturn taken by NASA’s Cassini spacecraft.

Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow. One of Hong Kong-based photographer Romain Jacquet-Lagreze’s latest photo series, Vertical Horizon, has him framing perfectly symmetrical shots of the city architecture edging around a skyward void.

Hutt Lagoon in West Australia is where loads and loads of algae farms can be found. In turn, the algae are responsible for making the whole place look so damn colorful.
