Just learned about Ken Isaacs' "Superchair" (1967).
Built-in book rest, shelves, lamp, drink tray, and a seat back that folds into a bed.
A place for "inventive work and the individual search for peace of mind", as he put it.
It was meant for people to build it themselves, hence the almost unfinished look. Blueprints were published in Popular Science in 1968.

A surgical center in rural Uganda runs entirely off-grid.
Solar power. Teak screens, woven Nile reed ceilings, clay tiles made by local potters.
This is what African architecture looks like when planned with intention.
📍 Kyabirwa Surgical Center, Uganda
Design: George K. George

reading about hypertext apps from the 80~90s, back when the role was called "hypertext designer" rather than web designer or developer. many came out of academia, and most failed, but there's sth exciting about seeing such a diverse range of forms that web could take

Filmed at nearly 4,000 feet deep in the Gulf of Mexico, this bioluminescent siphonophore glows ethereally as it drifts through the inky darkness.

This is the world’s first typhoon detection mechanism invented in 1884 by Fr. Federico Faura of the Manila Observatory. My specimen is the 1st edition model from 1886 produced by L. Casella. Despite being 139 yrs old, it is still able to predict the approach of Typhoon Uwan.

When I was young, I sucked at math. Even in early college. Then I sat down and did alot of practice. It did three things: a) made me realize I was bad because I wanted to get it right away but that it could not work that way; b) building up slowly but continuously would work in long-run; c) gave me the mathematical maturity to work on things.
90% of complaints about mathematics, mathematical economics and statistics come from impatience and a feeling of inability to immediately get it.

The stark contrast between Thierry Mugler’s personal living space and the grand theatricality of his designs.
“I don’t want real possession. What I need and what I wanted in this apartment was its space - and to keep it as empty as possible.”

We often talk about how an artist’s work mirrors their surroundings but I’m more drawn to those who defy that idea.

Back in our Bulacan home na binuo ng lola ko by collecting parts from old(er) houses. Siya rin nagpa-inlay ng furniture.
The thrifting and kalikot habit runs deep in the family.

God bless our civil society, truly.
Look at the platform built by BetterGov.ph. They not only created a portal for the 2020-2026 budgets, they even made a user-friendly server for DPWH flood control projects & a SALN tracker.

REDISCOVERED PLANT SPECIES IN MASUNGI Isang Exacum loheri (H. Hara) Klack. plant species, na huli pang naitala noong 1890s, ang muling nadiskubre sa bahagi ng limestone forests ng Masungi Georeserve. Ito ang unang verified record ng naturang plant species sa loob ng 130 taon, kasunod ng orihinal na koleksyon nito mula sa Swiss botanist na si August Loher noong 1895. Nadiskubre ang naturang halaman habang nagsasagawa ng malacological (snail) reconnaissance study sa "600 Steps" area ng Masungi sa Baras at Tanay sa probinsya ng Rizal. Tirahan ang Masungi ng "only known living population" ng E. Loheri, ayon sa researchers na sina Jayson Mansibang, Lawrence Jacob Alterado, Aaron Gabriel Espinosa, at Erwin Blancaflor.

50 ESSENTIAL SCIENCE FICTION NOVELS
No short stories, so no Suzuki Izumi and Rokeya Sakhawat Hossain, two pioneers of feminist sci-fi.
Very little Chinese sci-fi, especially due to lack of translation.
One of my most challenging curations yet. Enjoy.

This should be helpful.
During research on Odette response, I gathered accounts of DRRM officers not knowing how to interpret satellite images of the looming typhoon -which stalled their sense of urgency.
DRRM should be done in the key of L: localize, localize, localize.
