Artist Maskull Lasserre has updated their portfolio with a new project. It’s a rather cool, somewhat sinister, and appropriately geeky use for a bunch of outdated computer manuals. Step one: Squish the manuals together in a vice. Step two: Carve a spectacularly realistic skull Step three: Watch as blogs like Geek Native drool over your […]
Doctor Who season 7 trailer is out
Over the weekend there was a leak of the season 7 trailer for Doctor Who. It was taken by a cheeky member of the audience from the Doctor Who conference in Cardiff. The footage was good enough to watch but wasn’t great. Maybe now it’ll not be yanked off YouTube as BBC America have released […]

AKB48 isn’t just a girl […]

This video represents what it might be like everyday life with […]
