Lego Millennium Falcon Stop Motion Assembly 3d

It doesn't get much geekier than this.

"Assembly of the Lego set 10179 from Star Wars Ultimate collector series in stop motion in 3d. Created using 3ds max and V-ray. A very long work over 3 years, modelling all the pieces by myself. and rendered frame by frame."

Paris vs. New York and East Meets West

I was first introduced to Yang Lui's East Meets West by a colleague. It's a wonderful graphical representation of the differences between Eastern and Western mentality (Lui was born in China but spent much of her life in Germany). Today, on the excellent blog Brain Pickings, I saw Paris vs. New York by Vahram Muratyan, which is extremely similar in layout and idea, if not exactly the same, but it clearly works just as well.
