The Bible Experiment Joshua

The Bible Experiment Joshua - Last year I did a whole series of posts on the best books of the month. I had a theory that a chain of posts might actually create a synergistic reading effect and increase SEO, and also help focus my posts. Oh wow was I wrong. At the end of that year the readership was so blooming bad I quit doing the reviews, (but not before one of the authors I reviewed that month gave me the awww "buck up wally" speech. Its awesome.) and decided that I would pick an even less interesting topic and commit until I had finished the entirety of the series. And that was to read every book of the Bible and to write 1000 words about it. An Atheist had started doing it and it was actually a pretty interesting read. And I figured, heck, if an Atheist can do it, why can't I? Shouldn't I be able to?

Michael Beitz Captivating Sculpture Tables

These photos of this table would make for an amazing drawing or a fantastic painting. Add the Mad Hatter at one end and Alice at the other and wow, have you really got something here. But to realize that this is a physical table, that actually exists, in reality, somewhere... is just amazing to behold.

Robert Wechsler and His Interesting Coin Lattices

Do we under value the wealth we have been given? Are we too assumptive of the coins, the money, the amassed treasures we worship? Do I place anything higher than my own love for my God? My pleasure. My comfort? Is there anything that I wouldn't give up at the end of the day if push came to shove?

Dark Echo iOS Game Review

It is just phenomenal what kind of fear can be created simply by a black screen, and out of this world sound design. The mood of the game goes from, huh, I wonder where the door is. To, um, what was that? Very quickly and it only ramps up from there. And then the next thing you know you are blindly running into the darkness to get away.

Alternate Interstellar Movie Theories and Explanations

Oh I know there are weaknesses in this theory. But when you point them out, my answer is invariably going to be, explain to me your theory, and how it has fewer gaping holes in it than mine? Hahah. No, seriously, I've been struggling with this damn movie since I first walked out of the theater. Normally I crank a movie review the night after I see it. But this one wasn't like that at all. I struggled and struggled and struggled with it until I decided my first thought in the movie theater was all that was left.

New Out Of This World Treehouses

I know a bit about building a treehouse. After working with my father-in-law to build an over 200 square foot double decker beauty I could say that I probably deserve to be certified by treehouse school of design even. But these newDom’Up "treehouses" from architect Nicolas d'Ursel are in a class beyond anything I would even consider attempting myself.

THPPPPT Because You Are RICH THATS WHY

Now that your mind is blown... give.  Might I suggest a sponsorship with a fantastic organization like Compassion International? My family and I sponsor 4... and wish we could sponsor more.  And with Compassion, you could even go and visit your sponsored child if you wanted.  Talk about a change of perspective.  It will blow your mind to see where some of these kids live.

Beautiful Romeo and Juliet Infographic of Connections

I guess it mainly depends on whether you dig Shakespeare. I personally adore Shakespeare. The poetry, the insults, the tragedies, the comedies, the conspiracy theories, all of it. Can you find a single more important literary figure that has influenced more of how we write, think, dream, than Shakespeare? I dare you to even try.

Parallax is Now Live And On Sale

I think that game development is so much more accessible now than it used to be. This presents a lot more opportunities for developers, but that is a good thing and a bad thing at the same time. Because anybody can make a game, there is a lot more competition, and thus it is a lot harder to get noticed.

Giga Coaster Monster Test Run

Who knew North Carolina even had roller coasters?!? I assumed it was all hay rides and tractor bogs out there. Well this little video cured me of that little misimpression right away.

Greatest Regatta Event Ever

Greatest Regatta Event Ever This is possibly the most amazing pile of chaos ever pulled together in a single event....

An Interview With Painter Genius Adam Vinson

Thank you. I really appreciate you saying that because most of my “backgounds” are conceptions. It’s my way of taking a break from the regimen of tight painting. Many of those backgrounds are applied with palette knife, scraped and reapplied. Usually a few layers deep. I work off instinct and my mind rather than what is in front of me.

Artist 1010 Bores Enormous Holes In Walls

German street artist 1010, over the last year or so, has been creating some really uber spray paint windows into alternate universes. These large holes are bored into locations as far flung as Germany, Panama, and the United States. 1010 artistic style is simple, and yet it brings a pretty amazing effect once complete.
