A Yoga Sand Sculpture
Similar to a camera capturing multiple exposures in a single image, artist Katie Grinnancreated this sculptural time-lapse of her body moving through a daily yoga routine using sand, plastic, and enamel. The end result is representative of both time and form as each split second is layered onto the last creating what is both a singular figure and many. Ginnan describes this as an exploration of “peripersonal” space. “Mirage focuses on the concept of peripersonal space, the space that your body encompasses at its most extended point in every direction, which describes the body’s potential boundary.”
Kids Want Robot Teachers, Says Lego-Funded Study:
The survey was built around asking 350 “kid-innovators” aged eight to 12 how things would change if robots were part of their everyday lives. The results indicate that children have a very human view of robots.
Instead of machines that get tasks done for them, these digital natives see robots as ideal humans, able to help them at various tasks and make them feel comfortable socially.
“Robots are better versions of our teachers and parents, offering limitless time and patience, encouraging confidence and self-direction, and allowing us to make mistakes sans self-consciousness,” according to the study.
In addition, the study’s authors argue that robots can help remove any social stigma related learning at school. Perhaps the most common type of robot used today for education is Lego’s Mindstorm which teaches children how to program the device’s sensors and motion. The pictures students in the study drew were commonly of humanoid robots that act as companions to children’s daily lives, alternating between play companion and homework helper.

BONUS: TOP 25 VIDEO GAME-INSPIRED KICKS
I made number 3 on a list of the top video game-inspired kicks by Complex, so I have decided to throw in a bonus list for today.
I call it a bonus list because a majority of the shoes on this list are not actually shoes, but concepts, and a great many of them could not be produced as they are designed, but I’m a picky blogger.
Also my shoes are better than the ugly Mario Chucks at number one so don’t mind me while I sit here and hate… those Atari kicks are clean though.
