Making space travel sexy again...

Dava Newman, a professor of aeronautics and astronautics and engineering systems at MIT, has been working together with local design office Trotti and Associates on a new space suit design. The suit relies on materials incorporated in the suit to keep the astronaut pressurized, as opposed to gas pressure on current much heavier suits.

Augmented Art?

If you think augmented reality is just a serious design tool, think again. Why not use it to create something fun, art even?
That's what Pablo Valbueno did, with his Augmented Sculpture project. Like they say in the Gizmodo link, it does have a Tron feel to it.
