Brazil builds world's largest Lego tower - Telegraph [article ; video ; imagination]

excerpt:
Quote:

Nearly 6,000 Lego lovers in Sao Paulo, mostly children, helped put together the independent blocks of Lego bricks which were later stacked using a crane.

The tower was composed of 500,000 Lego pieces and reached 102 feet and 3 inches, breaking the previous record set in Chile last year.
It took four days to build and was held in place by wire supports to prevent it from toppling over in the wind.

The first Lego tower was built in London in 1988, since then Toronto, Moscow, Sydney, Tokyo and Munich have been among the cities which have held the title.

Designer Makes Lego-Style Helmet That Reads Comics to Kids | ComicsAlliance

excerpt:
Quote:

Inspired by the comics in old LEGO magazines, UK-based designer Jonathan Robson
has created an interactive comics-reading platform in the beloved LEGO idiom.
Called “Audio Comics,” Robson’s concept — which is not official — involves down-
loading a fully produced audiobook that’s then transferred onto a USB drive which
inserts into a helmet based on that worn by the classic LEGO figures. Children wear
the helmet, which has built-in speakers with which to listen to the audio file while
they read the corresponding comic book, which is received by mail.

Hidden behind the white face plates of this machine are racks of gears that make up a replica of one of the oldest known mechanical computers. This is a working model of the Antikythera mechanism made from Lego pieces. In the video, the machine is disassembled into its various components. Each mechanical unit takes advantage of gear ratio combinations to perform numerous levels of mathematical functions in order to display the date and time that future celestial events will occur.

Believed to date back to 100-150 BC, the stone bronze mechanism was recovered from a shipwreck around the turn of the twentieth century. The use of x-ray analysis helped to unlock the functions and confirm the theories of its operation.

Want more of the Antikythera mechanism? Check out the model built by Tatyana van Vark.
