Jordan has produced some of the most sought after sneakers out there. But say what you want, Kanye West's line of Yeezys for Adidas has added some new competition in the shoe game, and one guy is taking advantage of that. Known as 23Penny or Z, Yuanrun Zheng has made it his business to resell these sought after kicks for far more than they retail for, causing them to sell out in a matter of minutes. You may think this is shady or unfair, labeling him as a bad guy, but Zheng will gladly play the villain.

Animating the LEGO Batman Movie

It takes a lot of work to animate a LEGO movie. Each character, environment, vehicle, cloud, or anything else you see on the screen is made of individual bricks — pieced together like a digital LEGO set. The actual animation isn't traditional either. A stop-motion technique is used, where any changes in expression or other deformations are created by swapping out parts for ones with the desired geometry on a frame-by-frame basis. WIRED looks at this and other technical details that bring bricks to life on the big screen.

The History of Futura

Even if you don't realize it, you've probably seen the font Futura many times. The sharp, geometrical typeface has become a favorite among directors Stanley Kubrick and Wes Anderson, as well as artist Barbra Kruger. But the German-born type had a pretty rough beginning. Designed by Paul Renner in 1927, the font was first attacked by Hitler and the Nazi regime after its creator was arrested and exiled for his anti-Nazi essay. After the war, the typeface of the future earned world-wide attention when it was used on Apollo 11 to go where no man had gone before.

Earthships

In the desert of New Mexico stand buildings that look like they might have come from the future — or another planet. The brainchild of architect Mike Reynolds, these earthships were born from the oil crisis of the 1970s. Completely self-sustaining and built with repurposed materials like tires and bottles, Reynolds' designs aim to introduce a more eco-friendly and affordable shelter for people across the globe.
