Steampunk is cool. Predators are cool. So when you put the two together and create a Predator sculpture out of machine parts then you’re left with a steampunk predator that’s cool of coolness. This photograph is from Flickr user Dluu who’s based in Sydney, Australia.

Computer games harm teeth – so claims the University of Iowa
The playing of computer games has been linked to everything; from the downfall of society to religious fanaticism. We can add “tooth decay” to the list. Here’s the story in a line: if you’re a gamer then you’re too busy to brush your teeth. The initial research, carried out by Jordon Poss at the University […]
Knight Rider’s Kitt to make a return – in Kwik Fit ad
Glasgow based Kwik Fit has deployed Kitt in their latest TV ad. The ad, due to air first on Monday the 12th of April in the UK, is part of the “Kwik-Fit. You’ll be amazed at what we can do.” campaign and was created by DDB London. Kwik Fit operates a number of car repair […]
Stunning: Robot artist creates Halo helmet
This video of a Japanese machining robot is pretty. Well; to the right geeky sort of mind set anyway. I love the way it carves so easily through the metal. It looks like someone carving into light plastic or foam. The choice of sculpture is enough to make this video a must watch for any […]
Last Airbender computer game trailer
I’m looking forward to the forthcoming Last Airbender movie. Sure; it might now be unable and wisely unwilling to make any mention of ‘Avatar’ and sure; there might be a race debate in the casting… … but I’ve faith it’ll be a good film. One worth watching. Mind you; I thought that about Clash of […]
Doctor Who – Victory of the Daleks Trailer
Victory of the Daleks is the first Matt Smith/11th Doctor Who episode to air that was not written by Steven Moffat. It was written by Mark Gatiss (of The League of Gentlemen fame). Gatiss, himself, has appeared in New Who – staring as Professor Richard Lazarus in the Lazarus Experiment. It is rumoured, before the […]
Famous Last Words 7/15: The dragon is sleeping right?
At this point we’re sill less than halfway through the whole gallery of user submitted famous last words. The original list kept track of total votes as well as average votes. Since you can’t vote – we’ve deleted that – but the original contributor is still there. It’s also worth noting that the original input […]
Everyone’s doing it: Modern Warefare 2 ad falls flat
I have a conflict of interest. I don’t work in TV advertising. I work in digital marketing. The company that is responsible for the latest Call of Duty ad decided some old bloke sitting on a rotting chair telling me all the ways people “are doing it” would inspire me to buy the Modern Warefare […]
Oh No Doom! – Keith Noordzy’s Gods and Monsters
We have a geek alignment. Just a few weeks ago Geek Native sampled some of the impressive art from Oh No Doom!’s A Healthy Dosage of Restlessness. I’ve been tracking Keith Noordzy’s blog ever since some of his Skeletor art caught wide spread geek attention. You can imagine what’s about to happen. That’s right. Noordzy […]
The Periodic Table of Imaginary Elements
This Perodic Table of Imaginary Elements was created by Russel Walks and its a pretty clever way of showing the wide range of made-up-stuff that’s featured in sci-fi and fantasy films over the years. We’ve got Uru, Dilithium, Thaesium, Indurium, Pyre, Superman’s Kryptonite to Star Trek’s Corbomite to Futurama‘s Crapcrapium and a heck of a […]
