Tetris “Rolling”, the Solar Metal Smelter, and Goalkeeping Robot Dogs

I bring you the finest reading material each week, in my Linkfest

Every week I painstakingly crawl through the Internet, looking for the finest meats and cheeses — then publish them in a Linkfest.

Here’s this week!

To begin …

1) 🎨 Art made from cunningly organized everyday objects

Adam Hillman has a wonderful technique for making art. As Colossal describes it …

Everyday objects are puzzled into meticulously organized compositions in the work of Adam Hillman, who has a knack for arranging items like coins, fruits and vegetables, toothpicks, and keys into vibrant flat-lays. Inspired by textures, color, and gradients, the artist responds to the tactile qualities of each material to form intricately woven straws, stacked pennies, and breakfast cereal into geometric forms.

His stuff is really delightful. You gotta check out the human skull image he made by laying out keys.

Prints of his work are purchasable here, and you can see more of his work at his web site and his Instagram feed.

2) 🕹️ “Rolling”
