Here's an article about a flexible video display that Sony is working on. Apparently it is a combination of TFT and electroluminescent display technology. Electroluminescent is a cold light backing which takes very little electricity like you would use on a security vest. Sony is showing off a 2.5 inch flexible prototype display using the technology. Call me when I can actually buy it 5 years from now. I'm putting this one up there with e-ink and the laser laptop keyboard.

Here is a collection of photos by an artist who takes drift wood and makes horses out of a bunch of different pieces. They are surprisingly lifelike looking. They are somewhat of a cross between looking like a real horse, a zombie horse, and a mechanical horse. What really makes them look real is the background setting and pose.

Ding ding ding! And we have another Darwin Award nominee in this video. The guy takes a stick (or sledge hammer) and hits a can of WD40. It explodes in his face. The question what did he think was going to happen when he hit it? You know those warning labels on the outside? Yeah.

Here is a prototype of a wave generator in this video. Basically it sits in the ocean and the up and down motions of the wave generate power through a flywheel. The guy shows the inside and then takes it to ocean and tests it in the video.

Guy launchs a remote control aircraft from the back of his car, controls the RC plane with some VR glasses and remote, takes some aerial photos from the RC plane, and imports them into Google Earth for a good time in this video. Everything he's using seems like just off the shelf hardware that he's put togather himself.

Here's a video of an remote control B-29 model carrying a remoted control X-1 rocket plane model. The B-29 takes off and�drops the rocket plane. The rocket plane ignites and shoots upwards before coming back and landing. The B-29 model does a few fly bys of the camera including one where it flies by upside down and does a backwards loop. Both planes land safely verses other videos where they fly a big model and then crash it by mistake.

So if you have nothing better to do with yourself you can sit around and make art in your coffee. The guy in this video takes about a half a cup of coffee or hot chocolate or whatever it is and fills the rest of the cup with cream. Next he takes either a small screwdriver or a paintbrush and creates little designs in the top of the coffee. Some of them get pretty complex and at one point he adds in chocolate syrup to have another color to mix in with the coffee and cream. He makes everything from bunny faces to butterflies to star patterns and whatever else he can come up with.

Check out the full video below of the coffee art for yourself or click over and view it on the host site.

Here is a time lapse video of a guy who calls himself The Flowergod. In this video he takes a pumpkin and makes a flower arrangement in the pumpkin. The trick is that the video is sped up 6 times so he makes it super fast. There are at least seven or eight other videos that he has done with various other flower arrangements. It's crazy to watch the flower arrangement go from nothing to a full on professional arrangement in under a minute. Apparently he also�has a full on site with normal speed instructional version of the videos here.

Watch the video below of the Flowergod create an arrangement at superfast speed or click over and view it on the host site.

Here's an interesting viral video which is actually an advertisement for a industrial blender. The guy in the video takes various objects like brooms, crow bars, golf balls, coke cans, CDs, etc. and blends them up in the blender they are trying to sell. In this video he throws a couple golf balls into the blender and turns them into confetti. It's actually pretty amazing what the blender can do as normal blenders get stuck on icecubes and this thing tears into golf balls like they are butter. Nice viral marketing.
