The Grand Tour Race Toy Cars

While the racing isn't exactly fast and furious, the finer points of zero-emissions are discussed, with environmentalist Jeremy Clarkson a big fan of the little electric cars.
Johammer J1
Electric motorcycles are nothing new. There are several on the market, and have easily outdone automobiles in bringing zero-emissions vehicles to the masses. But the Johammer J1 looks to be the Tesla of the electric motorcycle market — not just a standard frame with batteries and electric motors, but a complete reimaging of the motorcycle as we know it.

All World Maps are Wrong
In the 16th century, Gerardus Mercator created the Mercator projection map. The projection is great for navigating sailing ships using simple tools like a compass, but it fails hard when it comes to representing size — the island of Greenland is nowhere close to being as big as Africa. Vox looks at the difficulties in making a sphere into a flat plane, and why making an accurate map is mathematically impossible.

Martin Scorsese From Above
Who's looking down on Martin Scorsese? The long shot, the pan, the closeup — they're all there in the films of director Martin Scorsese. And so is the top-down shot. The view of birds, angels, aliens, gods — everyone wants to see what his characters are doing.
Everything is in Your Hands
It's the pinnacle of evolution — the human hand. It can feel, manipulate, express, and even speak. In a very real sense, hands are what make us human. This short film by Gioacchino Petronicce is an homage to the humble hand, and the inspiration it brings us.
