Video: WILLIAM GIBSON Interview Touching On Drugs, Politics, Cityscapes
William Gibson predicted the future, and as I type on this keyboard to you across our mass hallucination, I’m only ratifying that claim. Here’s a pretty fucking awesome interview by Alex Pasternack in which he gets Gibson to open up on a variety of things. Gods, I love this man.

MPAA Boss Says New SOPA Is Happening Behind The Scenes. Duh-Doi!

‘NEON GENESIS EVANGELION’ Android Phone Is Fanservice Orgasm
Neon Genesis Evangelion ripped the tits off my adolescent brain and turned me into an existential nightmare. Back when it dropped, I didn’t even have a cell phone. In fact, they weren’t even the ubiquitous must-have staple of our culture. If they were, I would have been all over this phone. So gorgeous.
Scientists Can Make Solar Cells Thinner Than Spider Silk? Well Done.

TROLLING Could Land You 25 Years Of Prison Time In ARIZONA. Woah.
One of the Internet’s favorite activities is the blowing of textual fecal matter over people’s joy. It’s quite essential to many people. Now those in Arizona want to take away one of the few joys left to assholes so empty that they have to ruin others’ fun.

Arthur C. Clarke knows how to humble a man. Like many of my heroes, the dude dabbles in a bit of the futurism. Check out this video from 1974 where the good sir predicts the internet and computers. So goddamn awesome.
The Most Sensitive Scale Can Weigh INDIVIDUAL PROTONS. My Fat Ass Would Break It.
How much does a proton weigh? Like five or six pounds, right? I’m kidding! I can’t remember high school but I can totally remember they’re like light. Maybe even really light. Well now thanks to science we have a goddamn scale that can weigh them.
MIT Creates Smart Sand That SCULPTS ITSELF. Threshold Crossed, Man.
MIT is doing some straight-up wizard shit. They’re programming sand. Sand! To take shapes. This is so goddamn awesome.
Video: Interactive Poster You Can MAKE OUT WITH. Windex, Please.
Welcome to the future, motherfuckers! Weird as hell, right here. An interactive poster that you can make out with. As you zoom in, the babe or dude (ostensibly, c’mon and do it for us all here whacky programmers) will “react” to you. My question: why is the creeper leering in with their eyes open?
