Hi Here are three things I noticed this week on my wanderings, I hope you enjoy them. Have a good weekend! pierre 1. The Beauty of Flying robotsI'm a sucker for beauty. So this TED talk blew me away, you have to watch to the end though. Autonomous systems expert Raffaello D'Andrea develops flying machines, and his latest projects are pushing the boundaries of autonomous flight — from a flying wing that can hover and recover from disturbance to an eight-propeller craft that's ambivalent to orientation ... to a swarm of tiny coordinated micro-quadcopters (the pretty part of the talk). I can hear you say, cute, but what about Africa? The world's first Drone Airport is being built in Uganda, so there you go. 2. Unlearn AfrikaHi What a crazy SONA filled week?! We are after all living in the age of chaos. Here are a few things I noticed this week in between the madness. I hope you like them too. Nr 2 is from the Fluxtrends review, I write observations for Flux every now and again. So go check them out. Have a good one! pierre 1. Quote'We are falling, falling with nothing to hold onto and nothing to slow us down, the good news is that there is no ground for us to land on' 2. The Home of the not too distant futureHi everyone, here is this week's three things: a utopian state, an updated toys, and a superhero. enjoy, pierre 1. School of LifeThe School of Life is devoted to developing emotional intelligence through the help of culture. They address such issues as how to find fulfilling work, how to master the art of relationships, how to understand one’s past, how to achieve calm and how better to understand, and where necessary change, the world. They do fantastic short video clips on YouTube, the one below, The Perfect Country, is a particular philosopher's utopia. Dreaming up utopias help us better understand our current challenges? What would the perfect South Africa look like, how would it work? 2. Viewmaster VRThis week there is two videos, and a quote.. Curated from the onslaught of feeds. Hope like it. pierre 1. New BeautifulAgain this is one of most significant trends when coming to aesthetics, what we consider as beautiful is shifting. Take a look at these people's reactions when they are told they are beautiful. 2. Bamboo bikes from Ghana |
