This is ‘Above The Dust’, a beautifully shot video of Burning Man 2022 captured entirely by drone. That…looks like an experience. I have friends that go, but I have the feeling it would not be my cup of tea. I mean I can only do so many drugs before I
The brainchild of engineer Ekaggrat Singh Kalsi, this is an analog clock created in the style of an LCD digital clock. Taking the flip clock to a whole new level, it raises and lowers its number segments using a cleverly designed series of cams and levers operated by a controller
