Fake Swimming Pool by Leandro Erlich

In one of the courtyards of the Museum of Contemporary Art, Kanazawa, is a swimming pool framed by a limestone deck. When seen from the deck, the pool appears to be filled with deep, shimmering water. In fact, however, a layer of water only some 10 centimeters deep is suspended over transparent glass. Below the glass is an empty space with aquamarine walls that viewers can enter. Raak nat hier!

Technology in the classroom

It's not uncommon for educators to use student response systems (SRS) to engage their students and assess learning through polls, quizzes and other interactive tools. Most such systems rely on specialized devices known as “clickers,” however, and they're also typically expensive and difficult to use without training. Enter Top Hat Monocle, a Canadian company that has developed a system in which students can use the portable devices they already have, including cell phones, laptops and iPods.

Last minute touch ups to student exhibition spaces for Tonights opening. Last I saw there was a sound system being rigged up in the graphic design area along with a live graffiti session. The fashion show steps out at 20:30 in the multi purpose hall and promises to be an eye opener. There are several disciplines on display throughout the campus so give yourself time to explore - alternatively come back during the week as the exhibition is open until Saturday. Enjoy Design!

Gabriel Dawe - Installation Artist

Found on thecoolhunter.net

It's The Cool Hunter logo as an art installation. Gabriel Dawe's colorful 'Plexus installation is currently showing at the Dallas Contemporary in Texas.

The construction is made out of gütermann thread, wood and nails attached at either end to blocks of wood, the effect is like a real-world version of computer generated imagery. Stunning.

Enjoy with thanks to thecoolhunter
