Ahh, bowling. The sport that seems to polarize like no other - you either love it or you hate it. For a sport that is now on the fringes of the sport world, it is often the object of attempts to bring… |

Buckminster Fuller would be proud. ‘Tensegrity’ is the term he coined to describe a structure that is a balance of members and cables in pure compression and tension. Ionut Predescu has created a bicycle… |
Great points Josh. What is intriguing in this design over the Slingshot or ERB's is the decidedly more aggressive use of tensegrity. Michael Plishka on Mar 22, 5:59 AM

We are all mesmerized by the movements of fish. Their smooth, dashing, whimsical movements have been delighting people for thousands of years. Yet, for those who are blind, they never get to experience… |
