Exploding watermelons with 10,000 volts
We owe x-race car driver and self taught electrical engineer Jeri Ellsworth a thank you. She shared a video from her friend Joshua. Oh, yeah, Joshua likes to find interesting ways to explode watermelons. He likes to video this. Imagine what 10,000 volts could do to some watermelons? Actually, there’s no need to imagine it; […]
Augmented reality Godzilla t-shirt
I need this. I just need the t-shirt. It doesn’t matter if no one else has the software needed to get the AR Godzilla effect. Just wearing a t-shirt that could be seen to do this is enough for me. In fact; I demand a whole new fashion craze of augmented reality t-shirts! While we’re […]
Warhammer 40,000 Dreadnought is casemod mecha masterpiece!
What does your PC look like? Is it a tall black box that sits under your desk? Unless you’re into casemods then the chances are high that that’s exactly the case.

Our first spaceship shields are likely to be magnetic
Magnetic energy is pretty strong. We’ve all see it overcome gravity. In fact, as New Scientist is quick to point out; it’s a magnetic force that shields the planet from solar destruction.

Lego Wall-E is a cute Transformer
It’s been a while since the Wall-E rush but I think the cute little robot will be with us for a while yet. It certainly helps when talented people use Lego Mindstorms to build remote control transformer Wall-E models, video him in action, combine with a funky track and upload to YouTube. It’s really quite […]
Freeland Studio wows us with the steampunk iPhone

Their iRetrofone Steampunk device, on sale at Etsy for $450, has the attention of the bloggers. […]
Space Invaders on London’s Marble Arch

Here’s a mix of new tech with old architecture: Space Invaders on London’s Marble Arch. This short clip features Jason Bradbury from The Gadget Show. If it’s not featured […]
Rocket chainsaw gun – the best way to kill zombies
How’s this for a weapon? It’s a chainsaw. It’s a chainsaw in a rocket launcher. If you peak at the specs you can see that the chainsaw has little-bitty stablising fans to ensure it flies straight – what could possilbly go wrong? Nothing! Unless you’re a zombie. (Via Unreality)
