These helmets look just like shaved heads


Dubai-based artist Jyo John Mulloor has been experimenting with different ways to create comfortable motorcycle headgear, and has come up with a set of four hyper-realistic helmet designs that look like shaved human heads.

The Kerala-born digital designer explains on his website: "Project: HumanHelmet is an outcome of my extreme dislike to wearing a thick, clunky piece of metal that's simply not as comfortable as wearing a bandanna, cap or nothing at all."




I am particularly fond of the helmet with attached goggles but I'd like to see how it looks on a real head. These protective gear are just Photoshop creations, but according Mulloor, "some manufactures have already shown interest in launching a line of helmets under this design umbrella."

In Memory of Laura

So sad this morning to hear of the unexpected death of Laura, an old fiend and former dentist.

Last year, we wanted to meet and work together again on something and I am very, very sorry that will never happen.  I've mentioned her in a 2015 blog post , and today I will rerun the tale... Not So Happy Ending Not so long ago, I went for a drink in a pub in Ortigas. I had second thoughts about entering the establishment when I noticed there were so many people inside. There were men with ironic beard and pretentious hairstyles dressed in rolled up chinos and check shirts; women in vintage sundresses, skinny jeans, and acid wash denim cutoff shorts; actors and models trying to look hip; and a bunch of call center agents who wanted to get drunk before they start their graveyard shifts. There was this famous guitarist at one table, with sho...

Invisible People

Jinyoung Yu's art is a powerful statement about the duality of human existence – the conflict between who we are and who we pretend to be. When I look at her creations, I find myself not just admiring the form, but contemplating the meaning. At first glance, Yu's translucent figures might seem like apparitions. The South Korean artist uses plastics or transparent PVC for the body and clay for the heads, clothes, and accessories. The faces are often doll-like and mysterious, with subtle expressions of melancholy. Her art reminds me that our real power often lies in our transparency, our willingness to be seen in all our delicate, complex glory. More on her Artsy page
