Eric Franklin. Neon Skeleton.
Portland-based sculptor Eric Franklin constructs stunning (if not slightly disconcerting) anatomical light structures that are fully hollow and filled with ionized krypton, causing them to glow similar to a neon light. The glass skeleton above, Embodiment, is my jaw-dropping favorite of this series. The piece took over 1,000 hours of work over a two year period and is actually built from 10 separate units of glass formed from borosilicate glass tubing.
You can see much more of Franklin’s work on his website, and if you liked this also check out the work of Jessica Lloyd-Jones. Photos above courtesy Brad Carlile. (via my amp goes to 11) (by Christopher)

A super chill track from Major Lazer and Dirty Projectors. This one is a sleeper hit.
A remix of praise you. This is heavier than I usually like, but I can’t help listening!
Why Dan Harmon’s firing from Community is just the latest shot in the showrunner-vs.-network battle
Todd VanDerWerff soothed his broken heart over the news of Dan Harmon’s departure from Community by writing an opus on the two types of showrunners and how network’s deal with them. It is very good, and it might also help to soothe your heartbreak.
