Impossible Foods Meat-Free Burger
Anytime you put meat-free and burger in the same sentence, people are going to be skeptical. Silicon Valley startup Impossible Foods is trying to sway that opinion with their plant-based substitute. By ditching the cows, these burgers use 95% less land, 74% less water, emit 87% less greenhouse gases and are free from hormones and antibiotics. Although it sounds too good to be true, these patties are just as juicy as the real thing. They're now available at Manhattan's Momofuku, and to demonstrate just how worthy these burgers are, the restaurants founder chef David Chang, executive chef Matt Rudofker, and CEO and founder of Impossible Foods Pat O. Brown get in the kitchen and cook one up right before your eyes.
Jurassic Park: The Limits of VFX

With the massive leaps in computing since 1993, how have Jurassic Park's effects held up so well? The answer is easy: there is less than six minutes of CGI in the entire film, combined with practical effects and camera work to build dinosaurs that are as much in your mind as on the screen.

The James Brand Lowe Wallet
The James Brand has spent years refining modern knives, pens and tools—now it turns that same precision to one of the most essential everyday objects—the wallet. CNC-machined from aluminum, the Lowe is built to reset the standard, staying impossibly slim while carrying everything you need in your pocket. The aluminum shell naturally blocks RFID and is wrapped in a molded silicone band for cash or overflow tokens, giving the Lowe just enough flex without compromising its minimal geometry. It's a study in restraint, crafted for those who demand function in its purest form.

Nike Jordan Trunner
The Jordan Trunner has always lived at the intersection of performance and possibility. First introduced in the late '90s, it was the Jordan brand's bold step beyond basketball—a slip-on cross-trainer with midfoot straps, layered uppers, and a design language that looked more like the future than the present. The latest Trunner carries that same DNA, fusing breathable mesh and suede for flexibility, molded wings for support, and responsive foam for all-day comfort. Still versatile, still unmistakable, the Trunner remains the rare shoe built to keep pace with training while doubling as a lifestyle staple grounded in Jordan's restless drive forward.
