Two years ago, Henning M. Lederer had an idea: What if all those abstract academic book covers you came across in the library had animated covers? Henning found another trove of material, and has set another series of covers in motion.
An easy kayak cruise turned into an epic adventure when a man found his way inside an abandoned ship. The spooking interior looks like it's been completely gutted or at least rotted away, and the sound of water dripping and lapping of the steel inside is almost creepy.

Moral Code worked directly with decorated NFL receiver Donald Driver and his son, Cristian, on a collection of both casual and formal footwear meant to help wearers feel, look, and do good. With silhouettes named after Driver's own personal creed, the shoes, made in small batches by Moral Code's family-owned leather tanneries, are crafted from premium materials the old-fashioned way, featuring signature red stitch detailing and red leather accents. There's something for every style, from loafers and low-top sneakers to high-top kicks and running shoes. Best of all, Moral Code is SA8000 certified by Social Accountability International (SAI) for its production and employment practices, and the brand has pledged to donate a portion of all proceeds to the Donald Driver Foundation, which focuses on career development programs for underserved children and families.

The Shins latest video from their 2017 album Heatworms is a stop-motion affair — but not like any stop-motion you've ever seen. Made by LAMAR+NIK, the entire video was filmed on a white backdrop. Then, over 5,000 stickers were cut from almost 5,000 frames to create the animation.
Tick. Tick. Tick. That's the sound of time. In this minute-long supercut by Art of the Film, the films of Christopher Nolan count down in anticipation of the release of Dunkirk, the director's latest film.
Ever run a half-marathon in work pants? Someone did in the Ministry of Supply's Kinetic Pant, and they set a Guinness World Record. We don't necessarily recommend doing that daily — unless you're late for a meeting — but that's certainly more than enough proof that they're comfortable, stretchy, sweat- and water-resistant, wrinkle-free, and breathable. Plus, they're machine washable and easy to dress up or down depending on the day, thanks to the wide array of colors they offer, comfortable drawstring band, and zippered pockets. Adding to their versatility, they're specifically cut to work well with sneakers, which most of us are rocking to the office and on the weekends, too. And the waist measurements aren't broad-stroke alpha sizing: these are available in 28 through 40-inch waist sizes.

Sometimes bigger really is better. With a 24"-wide cooking area, the Ooni Koda 2 Max can easily cook massive 20" New York-style pies, or handle up to three 10" pizzas simultaneously. That size also makes room for two independently controlled gas burners and two 3/4′′ cordierite pizza stones, creating dual cooking zones. A front-mounted digital temperature display and app connectivity make monitoring the oven simple, G2 Gas Technology with tapered flames delivers more consistent heat, and the glass visor is removable to allow for cooking larger dishes. Available in propane and natural gas versions.

Dragon mom Daenerys met the Lannister army column escorting the haul from the sack of Highgarden — and all that was left was ashes. Cast and crew of Game of Thrones describe what it was like creating one of the biggest battles yet in a show full of them.
