Funerary mask of Tutankhamen

Tutankhamun,1341BC–1323BC,was an Egyptian pharaoh of the 18th dynasty (ruled ca. 1333 BC – 1323 BC in the conventional chronology), during the period of Egyptian history known as the New Kingdom. His original name, Tutankhaten, means "Living Image of Aten", while Tutankhamun means "Living Image of Amun". In hieroglyphs, the name Tutankhamun was typically written Amen-tut-ankh, because of a scribal custom that placed a divine name at the beginning of a phrase to show appropriate reverence.He is possibly also the Nibhurrereya of the Amarna letters, and likely the 18th dynasty king Rathotis who, according to Manetho, an ancient historian, had reigned for nine years — a figure which conforms with Flavius Josephus's version of Manetho's Epitome.

The picture below is the Funerary mask of Tutankhamen that I made by Embroidery and Cross-stitch.That is a art project from my Art History class. From I decided to make the Funerary mask of Tutankhamen, I spend almost one month to do this work. However, until the project due day, I did not finish yet. It still has some part need to work on.

rainbow warrior

Stockholm-based street artist akay has created the 'rainbow warrior: tool no 05.1' which is part of his 'instruments of mass destruction (complicated technical solutions to aide in simple acts of vandalism) series', that includes the previous 'robo-rainbow: tool no 10'. for both of the 'art-making' tools, the individual attaches an implement to the back of his/her bicycle.

Where the 'robo-rainbow' employs a mechanical arm, swinging in an arch above the biker to paint the wall while stopped, the tagging process with the 'rainbow warrior' is further expedited. the 'rainbow warrior' has a simple structure that is attached to the back of a bike and once installed, stands vertically, misting the surface adjacent to the the biker with a spray-painted rainbow as they ride past.

Pumpack

It’s quite the trend to have suitcases with an expandable hood to accommodate more clothes and stuff. However very few have stopped to consider vacuum packing clothes, to make more space. The Pumpack is one such suitcase design where it includes a pump that helps to compress clothes to make more packing room.

Magnetic life buoy

One of the biggest fears while evacuating a sinking ship is the possibility of survivors being carried away by the tide, and people getting lost at sea. The Network Tube is a rescue tube with magnetic properties and aims to form a floating cluster, bringing people together via GPS. When people huddle together, they not only boost each other’s morale, but they also increase their chances of survival.

Where is the Camera?

Air Clicker by Yeon Su Kim

A unique design concept which eliminates all that superfluous crap in most of the camera. Stripping the idea down to two modules you wear on your fingers, one a Bluetooth-enabled camera lens (which sends your “pictures” directly to your smartphone) and the other a motion-sensitive shutter button for “clicking”. Simply curving your fingers would enable the video mode. Smile for the fingers!

If you want to click pictures, wear the camera band on your thumb and the shutter button on your forefinger and gesture to click a pic. To take videos, simply curve your fingers to mimic a video camera grip and shoot. The tension from the finger movement triggers the shutter button to operate.
