an Underground Park on the Lower East Side: the opposite of the Highline, on the opposite side of the island (cleverly called the LowLine, or the Delancey Underground)
the fact that it’s underground means that the space will be open all year round and pretty much immune to all the issues of rain, snow, and so on. Fiber optic cables will gather and transfer sunlight from above ground, underground, with “the necessary wavelengths to support photosynthesis - while blocking out harmful UV rays that cause sunburn.” MY MIND IS BLOWN
one movie made up of footage from every country in the world. on the same day. (via Week-long Screening for Local Charities - NYC - One Day on Earth)
an eccentric's gallery, re-rooted in Philadelphia
The Barnes Collection recently moved from Merion, PA to downtown Philly. But these articles made me wonder: should art be viewed on the terms of its collector or artist? The idea that Barnes’ strange sensibility and hard-headedness completely changes the experience of seeing the pieces he chose - kind of wonderful. It was his taste that brought it all together after all…
sneaking into extra mooga for the last hour of big gay ice cream disco party… definitely worth it. if only we had known that extra moog-lers would be offered a full refund after the fact, i would have gladly put up a $250 down payment to see morimoto break down a whole fish and be treated to a port-a-potty experience made for kings and queens (think wood paneling, carpet, running water, and a flush??)
the “Almighty Board” is a cutting board, scale, and recipe book all in one. If you place your food flat on the counter, the touchscreen will show the food’s weight, a recipe tailored for that, and checklist of ingredients. It can even show instructional videos and step by step directions… amazing (via Jaewanworks)
