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.

Irene Saputra's Colorful Stitched Pieces

Embroidery is nowhere near forgotten, and in fact, it's experiencing something of a resurgence as artists around the globe are putting their own unique spins on the craft. Indonesia's Irene Saputra is one of them, and more than 45,000 people on Instagram already follow her. Handmade from colorful threads stitched onto fabric, Irene's embroideries begin as original illustrations. What I really like about her stitched pieces is that some of them are meant to be worn. Look at an array of her handiwork!

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.

Watching this video makes me feel like a tiny and trivial organism in the face of nature's relentless power.
