Meet Hyundai’s lightweight, all-electric foldable scooter


Concept vehicles are huge hits at motor shows, but the most badass designs hardly ever make it to production. Every once in a while, though, manufacturers build a prototype that is well crafted, relevant, and seemingly marketable.

This is Hyundai's foldable electric scooter. It weights roughly 17 pounds, and folds into three parts. Powered by a 10.5 Ah lithium battery, it can travel up to 20 kilometers (12.4 miles) and is designed to mount future Hyundai and Kia vehicles in order to charge and re-charge. The scooter is equipped with two front LED headlights and two rear tail lamps. Unfortunately, there's no word yet on when a commercial model will hit the streets.

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.

Thai artist paints on mosquito nets

I find them quite intriguing, these ghostly portraits that Uttaporn Nimmalaikaew paints on mosquito nets. His creations look like a hologram, changing form depending on where the viewer stands. Overall, they're gloomy, haunting, and endlessly fascinating. I could stare at them for ages. [h/t: Colossal ]
