Orizuru quite literally means "paper crane" in Japanese, and has become the ultimate origami project. This video slide show allows the user to click at their own pace, clarifying the process of folding an orizuru paper crane into 9 simple steps. All you'll need is one single square sheet of paper, or 1000 if trying to complete the Japanese legend of gaining a wish upon completing that much origami. Whatever reason had for folding the origami crane, the orizuru is a beautiful Japanese traditio...

Largely self-taught, Ryan John Kothe is an animator working out of Auckland, New Zealand. After picking up some rudimentary After Effects skills, he went on to create an impressive portfolio of beautifully rendered stop-motion animations with a distinctly tactile feel. Curious about the process behind Worn Out—Ryan's depiction of objects disintegrating in fast-forward (shown below)—we contacted him for a brief Q&A on the techniques behind his work.
If you need to build a SQL query, you can choose one of two alternatives. The first and a rather old way is using a console. But if you build your queries in MySQL console, you have to remember all the commands and keys. This is not a convenient way, because query execution is a time-consuming process. Another way is to use some graphical interfaces for MySQL. It can fulfill many developers' requirements, including query execution.
Get Money First you need to find a way to get 60 dollars or less, depending on what game you are going to choose to rent.
In this video, you'll get the recipe for classic, creamy Caesar dressing. Best of all, it doesn't involve raw eggs, but there are eggs in it. In Kevin Carey's version of this classic dressing, the eggs are boiled for one minute, which is a process called coddling. Then he blends them with garlic, red wine vinegar, fresh lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, a blend of olive oil and corn oil, and, of course, awesome anchovies!
There are fewer things finer in a home than a hardwood flooring. For the do-it-yourselfer, however, it can be a fun, yet daunting task. Installing a hardwood floor can best be described as a combination of rough and fine carpentry. Pounding the nails home and bending warped flooring to fit is certainly rough work. However, it is detailed as well, because even small mistakes will show.
Staining wood is an exciting and fun step in your refinishing process. Staining brings out and enhances the patterns in the wood grain and it unifies an overall color. At this stage your project piece begins to look more finished. Allow enough time to complete this task from start to finish to ensure continuity of color. You have the choice of using either water or oil-based stain, and each offers advantages and disadvantages.
Greetings and Salutations,
Stand back. This is a powerful talk from Chris Henrikson founder of Street Poets Inc. An organisation that is committed to building a community that brings together different racial, ethnic and socio-economic segments of the city of Los Angeles around the transformational power of the creative process.
The video documents the building process of a garden railway called NeverEnuf. Stage 1 was built around a hill and has a ropeway, water body and traversable gradients.
Easy steps to create viaduct walls and portals for tunnels from cement. Drawings in actual scale are available for free download from www.railmodellingindia.com. Simple process, great result!
Taken at the Toronto Eaton Centre using an iPhone and Hipstamatic 231 app, James M lens and Ina's 1969 film. The radial spin was created on camera by quickly turning the phone clockwise. I didn't think it was possible since I had no control whatsoever with shutter speed or aperture and what not. No post-processing done except resizing in Photoshop CS 5.
This link drops into a middle page, but this guy has step by step photos of the whole process.
This week's post on creating 6-sided Kirigami Snowflakes got me interested in seeing whether I could use the process to create tessellation snowflakes using the method. I still haven't succeeded, but I did decide to make some ornaments based off a few of the tessellations by M.C. Escher that have a 6 sided symmetry.
Check out iPhone app, LEGO Photo. It converts any photo to look like it's built from Legos. Best of all, it's free. I used a photo of a dinosaur I submitted to a previous challenge in Giveaway Tuesdays. See the original here.
It's another Monday, which means it's once again time to highlight some of the recent community submissions posted to the Math Craft corkboard. Additionally, I thought we'd take a look at the process of stellation and make some stellated polyhedra out of paper.Rachel Mansur of Giveaway Tuesdays posted a video from animator Cyriak Harris, which zooms into fractal hands, where each fingertip also has a hand and fingers. A few more details can be found here, as well as some other really cool pic...
I took this picture in my studio and did some post-processing work that fitted my mood best at this time. ;-)
Natural processes often create objects that have a fractal quality. Fractal branching patterns occur in plants, blood vessel networks, rivers, fault lines, and in several electrical phenomena. Many of these processes take lifetimes, or even occur on geological timescales. But this is not the case for electrical phenomena. They often occur near instantaneously. One example would be the branching patterns that sometimes occur in lightning.
This guy has gone all out. Amazing craftsmanship and complete photo documentation of his making process.
I know, I know, I've already posted one of these. Sorry, but this one's cooler than the last, so I had to put it up. This also has a great in-depth tutorial that shows exactly what to do and why you do it. There are photos for every step of the process, so you can actually make this one without too much head scratching.
While many of us carved pumpkins when we were younger, pumpkin carving is a seasonal skill, only needed around Halloween. If you're looking for a refresher course on how to carve a pumpkin, this tutorial will walk you through the process. Be sure to pick out the best pumpkin at the patch!
I am anti-oil, anti-gas, and just anti-fossil fuel in general, which causes me some serious vaccilation of the mind when it comes to my enthusiasm for the do it yourself wonder material known as PVC. Even though I love this stuff for its properties, I really do not like the processes that go into making and disposing of it. That means I get happy when I see news like this.
My backyard. I get beautiful sunrises every morning. This is "Hdr'ed" from 5 exposures. I've tried to make the resulting image look painterly without too much "over" processing...but I understand these images can be controversial. I hate 3 quarters of them at least!
Youtuber FVDisco has created a fully functioning, redstone, noteblock & piston-driven piano! If that wasn't amazing enough, it's also fully programmable! This video gives us a pre-made song to hear, then walks us through the process of setting up a song from scratch. Take a look!
This video showcases a number of artists and designers who rely on open source programming languages like Open Frameworks, Processing and Pure data to create digital art.

When we are dealing with something as abstract as your thought process, visualization is the best way to improve the way you think your thoughts. So what is the easiest way to change your negative thoughts? Literally imagine flipping them around to its optimistic counterpart. It also helps to imagine them as little monsters, too.
Ever wonder what's inside those old vintage typewriters and analog phones? Canadian photographer Todd McLellan dissects old electronics and then captures their innards— some assembled in a painstakingly orderly array, others caught in a mid-air explosion. More images and process video here (under "New Work").

Purdue mechanical engineering undergrad Ross Wehner built a gadget Homer Simpson would envy- a working, arduino-powered beer catapult fridge.
One of the most important marketing tools we should always be developing to help reinforce our brand is our references. Just like many companies use their client list and client references to build credibility and confidence for their products and services, we should also leverage our references to build credibility and confidence in our capabilities and brand. Sometimes reference checks are just a formality, but in most cases potential employers (i.e., potential clients) use reference checks...
