Infographic: Every Avenger That Marvel Ever Invented

Always appreciate the complexity of this simple patterns.

---

The incredibly detailed infographics by Jer Thorp do the knock-off series of superhero scraps almost too much justice, as they meticulously and elegantly plot the appearance of every one of the 132 Avengers through almost 50 years of issues, with each hero designated by a three-color shield borrowed from Captain America.

1000 stickers & 1000 kids - The Obliteration Room

The Obliteration Room… totally cool.

Via: thisiscolossal.com & GOMA

This space has been transformed into a series of domestic—style rooms, reminiscent of the average Australian home, filled with furniture and objects painted entirely white. This functions as a blank canvas that becomes ‘obliterated’ over the course of the exhibition through the application of brightly coloured dot stickers.

This series of images shows ‘The obliteration room‘ in its pristine state before the exhibition opened, along with the application of the very first dot stickers.

You can revel in ‘The obliteration room‘ during ‘Yayoi Kusama: Look Now, See Forever‘, on display at GOMA until 11 March 2012. You can also read more about Yayoi Kusama and the exhibition at ourdedicated website.

Found: The Deleted City

Geocities is Dead. Long live Geocities.

------

The installation is an interactive visualisation of the 650 gigabyte Geocities backup made by the Archive Team on October 27, 2009. It depicts the file system as a city map, spatially arranging the different neighbourhoods and individual lots based on the number of files they contain.

Around the turn of the century, Geocities had tens of millions of "homesteaders" as the digital tennants were called and was bought by Yahoo! for three and a half billion dollars. Ten years later in 2009, as other metaphors of the internet (such as the social network) had taken over, and the homesteaders had left their properties vacant after migrating to Facebook, Geocities was shutdown and deleted.

Found: How Mundane Routines Produce Creative Magic

Via the99percent.com

Every day, you take the same route to work. You stop at the same coffee shop and order your coffee exactly the same way. When you get to the office, clutching the same branded cup, you place it in the same place on your desk. You fire up the same computer, tidy the stuff on your desk into the same pattern, settle into the same chair and open the same tabs on your browser.
