El Paso Los Caracoles, entre Argentina y Chile es mundialmente famosa por su sinuoso diseño de 29 curvas cerradas y empinadas, sin muros de contención. El tramo obliga a los vehículos a ascender desde los 2,275 metros hasta rebasar los 3,100 m.s.n.m.

Pointillisme was an immersive installation created by Japanese architect and designer Taiju Yamashita. The work took inspiration from the painting technique of pointillism, where many tiny dots combine to create a larger image. Instead of paint, Yamashita used thousands of suspended transparent spheres to create a three-dimensional “drawing” made of light.

The scale of this engineering is terrifying. 🤯

People don't realize this thing is alive.

It looks abandoned. It looks frozen. It looks forgotten.
It is none of those things.

The Kalyazin RT-64 is a 64-meter Soviet radio telescope, hidden in a Russian forest, still listening to deep space. To pulsars. To dying stars. To spacecraft drifting between planets.

Kanye West said this in 2022 on @lexfridman:

Lex: "What do you hope your legacy is?"

Ye: "To be forgotten. There's ego in memory. Who designed the sidewalk? Who designed the water fountain? Who designed the stop sign? Who designed the stop light? These things are so ubiquitous that the person that designed them is forgotten. If it's a good idea, it's a God idea."
