Katy Parry alien language... E.T.!
If you follow Katy Perry on Facebook or have visited her website in the past few days, you might be wondering what's going on. All these symbols and signs? A bunch of backslashes? What is this!? Did she get hacked?
It's alien talk, guys! We've all seen Katy's alien transformation from her upcoming "E.T." video, and now she's speaking to us in intergalactic tongues. And you can do it, too. Check it out:

Head over to the "KatyPerry.com" to translate your human words into Katy's alien language, and don't miss the MTV premiere of "E.T.," featuring Kanye West, on Thursday, March 31 at 7:53 pm ET.

When my mind works...!
Here are some pics of the things i do when i'm inspired!
this is a model of a kinder garden i designed years a go on my designing class
this is a close-up of the class rooms and the internal view. The place has 3 class rooms to divide the kids in different ages.
it counts with a library, multi-use room, playground, arts classrooms and more.
This is a painting i made years ago while i was studying in the US. the paint is called ESPAÑA
It kinda looks like a Piet Mondrian, that was my inspiration
I crafted this weird thing thinking in Lady Gaga, it is made of paper and cork
3 tubes of paper and corks in the base was all i use to make this weird thing

The most watched Youtube videos of 2010
#1 The Bed Intruder Song wins with nearly 50 million views as the most watched video in the US and around the world. The video was produced by YouTube partner Auto-Tune the News aka the Gregory Brothers. Inspired by a local news segment, this song featuring an ‘auto-tuned’ version of Alabama man Antoine Dodson entered the music charts, and the revenue it generated helped Dodson purchase a new home. Missed it or want to see it again?
#2 TIK TOK KESHA Parody – Key of Awe$ome #13- glitter + throw up.
#3 Greyson Chance Singing Paparazzi- Lady Gaga just got pwned.
#4 Annoying Orange Wazzup: an equally obnoxious spoof of the old Budweiser commercials.
#5 Old Spice | The Man Your Man Could Smell Like: We reported earlier this year that with two new TV spots and the online response videos, Old Spice sales were up a whopping 107 percent.
#6 Yosemitebear Mountain Giant Double Rainbow 1-8-10: Like Grizzly Man meets Burning Man meets the Wizard of Oz. Is there anything more awe inspiring than a double rainbow?! And where can I get whatever he’s on?
#7 OK Go – This Too Shall Pass – Rube Goldberg Machine version: From OK Go’s new album “Of the Blue Colour of the Sky,” this awesome video makes Doc’s kitchen in Back to the Future look like Lego play. The video, directed by James Frost, OK Go and Syyn Labs and produced by Shirley Moyers, was filmed in a two story warehouse in Echo Park, CA. The “machine” was designed and built by the band, along with members of Syyn Labs over the course of several months.
#8 THE TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE – Trailer: I know more men that think they look like or wish they looked like Robert Pattinson and the same for women and Kristen Stewart than I actually know people with crushes on these actors. Also interesting, “eclipse trailer” was the most searched for query on YouTube during the month of March.
#9 Jimmy Surprises Bieber Fan: He SUCKS!
#10 Ken Block’s Gymkhana THREE, Part 2; Ultimate Playground; l’Autodrome:Shot just south of Paris, France in Linas at l’Autodrome de Linas –Montlhéry, this 1.58 mile oval track, built in 1924, features banks as steep as 51 degrees, which is more than double the standard incline of most NASCAR ovals. Chosen by Ken Block for this specific reason, the ramp-like banking proved to be a unique and exciting challenge. This man definitely studied physics.

The future in Dubai
Dubai architecture: new buildings in the united arab emirates the future of dubai's waterfront --- Duabi or Dubai city is located on the northern tip of the united arab emeritus on the persian gulf. It has been ruled by the al maktoum dynasty since 1833 and has existed in its modern state since 1971. The current ruler is Mohammed Bin Rashid al Maktoum, who is also the prime minister and vice president of the united arab emirates. The rather small city has a population of 1.6 million people and a 37 billion USD economy based largely on trade, manufacturing and financial services. Contrary to popular belief petrol and natural gas only make up a small percentage of revenues. The city has gained world-wide attention in the past few years because of its booming economy and ambitious architectural projects. With a focus on business and tourism, the city is ramping up construction on an unprecedented level. in fact, dubai is said to be home to 15% to 25% of the world's 125,000 construction cranes. Don't think that the architectural expansion is over, because a slew of new project are on the table and in the works as we speak. here is only a small portion of the buildings that are being proposed, constructed or developed in Dubai and its surrounding region. the 'burj dubai' is a supertall skyscraper currently under construction in dubai. when completed in 2009 it will be the tallest man made structure in the world. It was designed by adrian smith who worked with the building's architecture and engineering firm skidmore, owings and merrill until 2006. As of march 1, 2008 the building measured 611.3m tall. On September 12, 2007, it passed toronto's cn tower to become the world's tallest freestanding structure. 'the cloud' is a speculative design for a resort city elevated 300 metres in the air above Dubai and supported on slanting legs resembling rain. It is designed by nadim karam of lebanese architect atelier hapsitus. It is a horizontal presence on an elevated platform, an antithesis to the sum of skyscrapers spreading over the entire region. 'dubai hub one' is a design proposal for a cultural hub, serving the UAE. Designed by studio nova, the space has been created to work in much the same way as a shopping mall, except for the consumption of culture instead of goods. Its forms have been generated using algorithms and special programing scripts creating a dense structure of spaces. zaha hadid' dancing towers are planned to be located in dubai's business bay development area. The plan consists of three buildings which rise up from the ground bending and intertwining with each other to create fluid animation of the forms. 'opus' is another dubai building designed by british architect zaha hadid. The 235 million GBP development was designed for the business bay for omniyat properties. It stands at 20 stories located next to the towering burj dubai. hadid's concept was to have the building open onto the city, framing the views. It is currently underdevelopment and is planned to be completed by 2010. 'dubai renaissance' was designed by architects rem koolhaas and fernando donis of OMA for the business bay development competition. their entry lost to hadid's dancing towers. '0-14 tower' was designed by resier and umemoto and rur architecture pc along with dubai developer, shahab lutfi. the building was designed for dubai's business bay and features 22 floors covered in a double skin facade that's outermost skin is constructed from 40c, thick perforated concrete. the one meter space between the skins creates a chimney effect, cooling the building. the 'eta hotel' is a 68-room boutique hotel complete with restaurant, bar and roof top pool located in a high density commercial neighborhood in dubai. the structure was designed by sanjay puri & mimish shah, an indian firm. 'duabi pearl' was originally conceived by the omnix grop in 2002 but has since been taken over by a consortium of investors led by the al fahim group. the 3 billion USD project overlooks the pal jumeriah and covers 1.4 million square metres of the dubai media and technology free zone. 'dubai grand pyramid' obviously derives its form from the egyptian pyramids, with a modern twist. this pyramid will be a multi-use space and will be flanked by two smaller pyramids housing the developer falconcity's offices and commercial space for a theme park. 'the 'arabian blade' is a mixed-use tower designed by claudio catalano. the building was inspired by plant forms and combines several volumes into one unit. it will contain residences, a hotel and commercial space. 'dubai towers' is the centerpiece for the large 'lagoons' development. the buildings and the development were all conceived of by TVS. the four towers range in size from 54 to 97 floors and were inspired by the flames and movement of candlelight. rmjm architects have designed this building for abu dhabi convention centre. the structure features an organically shaped office tower, which blends seamlessly into the horizontal convention space below. architect david fisher is the designer of the 'da vinci rotating tower', one of the most innovative an unique buildings to be built in dubai. the 250 meter tower will allow each floor to rotate freely allowing the building to shift its shape. in between each floor horizontal wind turbines will allow the building to produce energy. |

50 modern bathrooms
I am just awestruck by this Italian company Cerasa's bathroom collection. Brought to our attention by style spotter Trendir, these designs ooze a sort of vitality we rarely see of such spaces. With in-floor bathtubs and luxury furniture the atmosphere they bring about is akin to those found in spas. Obviously most of the concepts do require a lot of space and we suspect any of these would find room in a typical apartment setting. But if you are the kind of person who is not too shy to treat yourself to some niceties (plus have space to play around with), you might want to give this a look.
Also we wanted to put in a tip for furniture designers who would like to have their work featured here. If you would like to know the secret of having your entire catalog featured in a design blog for free, you might want to take a cue from Cerasa’s website. The site is pretty much what design bloggers like us look for – no fancy flash animations, clean & sensible navigation and most importantly a gallery of high resolution images of professionally photographed product realizations. How often furniture makers fail us in this respect, we have lost count.
Amazing isnt it?
