Awesome stuff.. science ,art, music!

Must... share... these...

$8,550 Period Table Coffee Table:

"By embedding all element samples in clear acrylic, they are beautifully presented and also protected from tarnishing. This format also helps to addresses health and safety issues, as all potentially toxic or corrosive substances are permanently encased in a thick layer of robust resin. Argon gas and mineral oil is further used to ampoule reactive samples and preserve their freshly cut appearance."

So cool. I'm a dork. But come on.. with samples! This can't be 100% safe though..no way!

Next up, The Vader Project:

Would love to see an exhibition!!!

Last but not least, I have recently discovered VSQ.  VSQ = Vitamin String Quartet.  It's a series of tributes produced by Vitamin Records that pay "homage" to a ton of popular bands and artists with string quartet takes on popular songs.  Some of these are SOOO amazingly good... some are just good.. none are bad so far from what I've listened to on youtube.  And boy do they pay tribute to EVERYONE!  Here are a few great ones that I've listened to so far... some of their mix tribute albums are completely sold out online, but I did buy some of their other ones, like the Linkin Park tributes, coldplay, evanescence, etc.

Look look.. listen listen...
