Preserved Transparent Animals by Iori Tomita

These see-through critters are preserved in jars and injected with amazing technicolor enzymes to make them all glow-y. Break it down, Science: “Tomita uses an enzyme to dissolve the natural proteins in the flesh. He then injects red dyes into the harder bones and blue dyes into the softer cartilage, thus highlighting usually unseen internal structures. The dead creature is then preserved in a jar of glycerin”. You can even buy miniature versions of these… in Japan.

What’s a good title for this illustration/movie poster??

I originally wanted to turn this into a movie poster design but could not think of a name. If anyone has any good ideas let me know and I’ll post a version with the text added.  Close up and details of the piece can be found on my portfolio site here.- Reno Msad

#SayAnything

 Deep in the rainforests of the Indian state of Meghalaya, bridges are not built, they’re grown. For more than 500 years locals have guided roots and vines from the native Ficus Elastica (rubber tree) across rivers, using hollowed out trees to create root guidance systems. When the roots and vines reach the opposite bank they are allowed to take root. Some of the bridges are over 100 feet long and can support the weight of 50 people.

This is so beautiful!

I really appreciate Sigourney’s character in this movie. She set the bar high for female action ‘she’roes.
