The Lions Mane Jellyfish is the largest jellyfish in the world. They have been swimming in arctic waters since before the dinosaurs (over 650 million years ago) and are among some of the oldest surviving species in the world. The largest can come in at about 6 meters and has tentacles over 50 meters long. Pretty amazing when you think these things have been swimming around for so long. They have hundreds of poisonous tentacles that it used to catch passing by fish. it then slowly drags in it’s prey and eats it.  That is terrifying.

3 guys, 44 days, 11 countries, 18 flights, 38 thousand miles, an exploding volcano, 2 cameras and almost a terabyte of footage… all to turn 3 ambitious linear concepts based on movement, learning and food ….into 3 beautiful and hopefully compelling short films…..

One of the most incredible homes I’ve ever seen. Just look at that view and that craftsmanship. If I ever go to Bali, I am so visiting that area. Set within a rural landscape along Bali’s Ayung river, Green Village is a planned community based on design concepts and sustainable principles established by the artisans and craftsmen that built Green School.

Brilliant photo series of Astronaut Suicides by Neil DaCosta. They’re funny and a little bit sad as well. (Thanks, Nora.)
