Filmmaker creates an amusing video starring a 3D-printed infant

Here's another awesome stop-motion animation from Eran Amir. The Israeli filmmaker 3D printed a series of tiny baby sculptures and use them to shoot amusing timelapse videos of a naked infant running in various locations and environments. We see the baby cross over a snow-covered landscape in Germany, the Dead Sea, bridges, alleys, beaches and even duck under Anish Kapoor's Cloud Gate in Chicago.

The process is very labor-intensive, as Amir must attach one of the figurines on a rig every time he moves the camera forward. But for this video, the result was well worth the effort. Check out these behind-the-scenes shots that show how it was done.

The Adorable Sculptures of Yen Yen Lo

These images are from a series of wall sculptures created by Yen Yen Lo . Here you can see her intricately textured ceramic pieces, looking downright adorable. Yen Yen Lo's eye for the unique and whimsical is delightful. Apparently they are not intended for kids under 16. Fifteen-year-olds cannot be trusted with fragile stuff. Get them a Funko Pop instead.

French supermarket promotes 'ugly' fruits and vegetables to reduce food waste

When was the last time you bought a weird-shaped fruit or veggie? A disfigured eggplant, a gnarled carrot, a hideous orange, or a deformed apple? You probably have a hard time remembering because growers usually throw out any misshapen produce, since grocery stores only want flawless (or almost flawless) crops. If there are lumps, bruises, or other deformities, retailers are likely to reject them. To raise awareness against food waste, Marcel Paris introduced a brilliant ad campaign called the Inglorious Fruits and Vegetables . The agency created these posters for Intermarche, France's third largest supermarket chain, to inform people that though these foods might by ugly, they are as good as any others.
