“People cannot learn by having information pressed into their brains. Knowledge has to be sucked into the brain, not pushed in. First, one must create a state of mind that craves knowledge, interest and wonder. You can only teach by creating an urge to learn.”

- Victor Weisskopf (via inthenoosphere)

Alternatively, you can download the demo yourself at Pouet here (it is much much better than the video above, sharper and cleaner, Windows only).

The Atlas moth does not have a mouth and only lives a couple of weeks

“Throughout their 1–2-week adult life they survive entirely on larval fat reserves that they build up while they are caterpillars.”

hát ez nagyon szomorú. :( mondjuk én a kérészeket is sajnálom.

darksilenceinsuburbia:

Shlomit Bauman . Ran Out.

Israeli ceramics designer Shlomit Bauman combined white porcelain with the very last batch of clay from a local pit to make these stretched and distorted objects.

The objects in the Ran Out collection combine porcelain with a type of Israeli terracotta that has almost been used up completely.

alazat:

A nevem Bog Dan, és ott vettem a tanyát, hol a sárgahátú folyó három ága három különböző tartományra osztotta a vidéket. Ifjúkoromban, egy csöndes, nyári éjszakán rontottak meg balkáni fűmuzsikusok, akik pitypanggal, náddal és kóróval zenéltek éppen úgy, mint a fejedelmi udvarházakban lebzselő ciánoskörmű udvari zenészek. Gyanútlan voltam, és ellágyultam a szépséges muzsika hallatán. A mitológiai történettel ellentétben az én kezemben nem arannyá változtak a dolgok. Ha ételt érintettem, az megromlott és megavasodott, a hús büdösen szaglott, a kenyér héját egyetlen szempillantás alatt bevirágozta a penész, a bor savanyú lett, akár az ecet, s a gyümölcsök barna, undorító levet eresztettek. Etetni kellett, mint egy taknyos gyereket. S míg a szám elé rakosgatták a falatokat, én csak bámultam a kezeimet, a tömpe és szőrös ujjakat, s különös torokhangomon énekeltem. Őszintén szólva nem sok fogam volt, talán ezért is tudtam szépen énekelni. Egyszer megkérdeztem egy mindentudó felhőszelídítőt, voltaképpen betegség-e a bajom, vagy inkább képesség.

thepredatorblog:

The Pacific blackdragon is a deep sea fish, that can be found up to depths of up to 3,300 ft. Female blackdragons are about two feet long and have fang like teeth and a long chin whisker. They are black on the outside, aswell as on the inside to prevent light from swallowed bio-luminescent prey shining out. The males are small, about three inches in length, and brownish in color. They have no teeth, no chin barbel and no stomach. Unable to eat, the male lives only long enough to mate.
