Turn your iPhone into a LEGO brick
Contributor
If you don’t already find your iPhone fun enough to play with, you can now turn it into a LEGO brick thanks to design company Tinkerbrick. Users can make LEGO creations, using their phone as a base or as part of the design. Some have even built structures to support their phone while recording video. For just $33 it sounds like a good investment to us. Check out what iPhone/LEGO enthusiasts have been up to below.

Who says work can’t be fun? At the LEGO Denmark office, you can find a to-story-high slide, colorful wall graphics, and bonzai gardens on the tables. Copenhagen-based Rosan Bosch designed the LEGO office with playfulness in mind. Of course, you can always find some LEGO toys lying around, if you’re still not satisfied.

Awesome photo art by Area Bridges
Reader Find
This is the art of a stay-home dad who always has a crazy camera with a long viewfinder made out of Legos with him. He is the anonymous creator of rock sculptures along the beaches of the Long Island Sound, which are the subject of many of his photos. He also makes cool loops with his Rhodes and guitar and snare drum and carefully pieces his loops together in tandem with his photo art in beautiful short movie snippets. My favorite pieces are these planet-esque (or some are eyeballish) photo collages he makes.

Photography that represents problematic scenarios
Reader Find
My intention is not to try to change the world. I’m aiming, instead, to represent some of the new and problematic scenarios of the contemporary world, which, without realizing it, have become part of our everyday life. I want to awaken consciousness about them in the individual. These allegorically portrayed situations reference a variety of the ‘accidents’ that are caused by humans. My series denounces what has become a habit. Art by Rodolpho Vanmarke.

The Lego-like, concrete landscape of Singapore
Contributor
The city I live in, Singapore, regularly gets flake for its densely concrete landscape — our land covers just 704 km2 of the world — so it’s quite refreshing to look at this classy architectural photo series by Lithuanian artist Aiste Stancikaite. Everything looks so beautiful.

Raspberry Pi: powerful credit card-sized computers for $35
Reader Find
A powerful credit-card-sized computer for $35, developed by eggheads at Cambridge University specifically to remove the don’t-mess-with-my-expensive-machine preciousness of computers, encourage kids to tinker, and thus improve the calibre of their computer science applicants. As you would expect, kids are doing mind-bending projects with them, like brain-controlling their Lego robots.
