If you're one of the first kind, then you're most likely familiar with the work of Survival Research Labs. SRL's exhibitions are about flames, fumes, crushing, and rending...done with loud and very dangerous machines. Chinatown's Fringe Exhibitions are offering a number of killer...

Photo by Stephanie Asher JPL has just uploaded some brand new software to NASA's robot explorers Opportunity and Freedom, a few million miles away on Mars. These little rovers have kicked around for four years, finding evidence of water, watching the formation of clouds and dust devils, and sending back some really stunning images. The new software will help the rovers move about on the surface, more accurately photograph atmospheric conditions, and give them...
