Wally Wallington is a retired carpenter who over ten years ago came up with a system to move heavy objects without using any type of machinery, only his whit. In fact, it uses the strength of only one man.
 
By heavy object I don’t mean a big pile of bricks or some steel beems. No. Wallington is capable of moving things as amazing as a one ton concrete block or a neighbour’s entire barn (watch video).
 
The system basically consists of applying torque from different angles using, amazingly enough, only pieces of wood and gravity.
 
Wallington assures that systems like these must have been used in historical constructions such as Stonehenge, and to prove it he’s been dedicated lately to building a replica in his own yard.
 
If this isn’t proof that whit is the most powerful tool there is, I don’t know what is.
 
Yet another reason to be inlove with physics.

The great annual theater festival Santiago a Mil has been involved year after year in bringing to our humble country some of the most important and amazing performances worldwide, and this year it was no exception.
 
Today I had the privilege of seeing the beautiful “Players of Light” show, by the incredible Groupe F.
 
An outdoors and free event that involved everything I enjoy: Great music, mind-blowing fireworks, all sorts of lights and beautiful colors.
 
An experience that went on for a little over an hour that felt like ten minutesU, but I’m pretty sure it must have left the thousands of people that were there more than satisfied.
 
A sublime experience. A captivating game of lights of unmatchable quality.

The always asertive individuals over at SmashingMagazine have released a list with 29 awesome music videos.
 
The list overall is very well made and several videos are inspiring to say the least for their innovation and execution level.
 
My recomendation is to watch them all, it’s worth it. I’d love to leave a list of the ones I liked the most; but I kinda liked all of them.

We’ve all seen a touch-screen. But now it’s the turn for a touch-screen scanner that, oddly enough, records the content of an object from the face that we see, not the machine. I think there must be some sort of special camera installed on the ceiling above.
 
The part with the moving mouse is specially cool.

I’ve been kind of M-I-A around here due to vacational issues, so I haven’t been able to greet evryone properly for the New Year that just went by.
 
That’s why in an apologie-like kind of way I want to leave with these few visual testiomonies of the celebrations for New Year 2008.
 
First is a compilation made by TrendHunter consisting of 8 videos of the festivities in such diverse locations as Dubai, New York, Hong Kong and Sydney.
 
The second is a more curious one. A series of 360 degrees panoramic views of different events. Among others you’ll find images of Copa Cabanna, London, Taipei and Rio de Janeiro, just to mention a few.
 
I sincerely hope this year is full of success for everyone and brings many learnings and new experiences.
 
A big hug for everyone swinging by this website.
