The concept is simple — add ink to water. The results are extraordinary. The Macro Room captures the planets suspended in a tank of water as it's injected with colored ink, creating colors and shapes that mimic the space dust and stars of the Milky Way — the backdrop of our solar system.
It was a love affair, a cultural phenomenon, a shift in how Hollywood made movies — and brought a whole generation of kids to the stars. Football helmets became X-Wing lids, flashlights were lightsabers in darkened rooms, and looking up at the sky and wondering who was saving the galaxy was a legitimate question. 40 years after the release of Star Wars, here's a tribute to all the imaginations that were changed forever.

Once built for the indoor pitch and later claimed by skaters and streetwear purists, the Nike Gato has always thrived where precision meets style. First launched as the Nike5 Gato Street in 2010, this low-profile silhouette combined premium leather, suede, and embossed detailing with functional grip and XDR rubber — crafted for those who play fast and live faster.

It's a lesson nearly as old as film itself: Show the audience what you want them to know instead of explicitly telling them. Like the saying "actions speak louder than words", how a character reacts to situations gives a much sharper definition to the role than reeling off chunks of dialogue. In this video essay, Lessons from the Screenplay takes on the touchy subject of critiquing Rogue One and The Force Awakens, contrasting the character of Jin with Rey, and how Rey's far more active role in shaping the story makes her a more engaging character.

This demonstration video shows Elon's idea to relieve congestion in cities once and for all.

That makes trying to categorize and then pick the best of each a monumental task, one which Cinefix is up too.

Mathematics and art are two things that aren't usually thought of as going together.
