The bicycle, an amazing tool for change. Activists and cities all over the world are moving towards a new system. But will the economic powers allow it? Bikes vs Cars, a new film project from BANANAS! and Big Boys Gone Bananas! director Fredrik Gertten, looks into and investigates the daily global drama in traffic around the world.Fact: By increasing cycling from 1% to 1,5% of all trips, the US alone could import 462 million fewer gallons a year.

If you can just imagine 20% fewer cars on the street, I mean that alone is like an idea that makes you happy.

Codex Seraphinianus

design / illustration / interest

In the late 70s italian architect, illustrator and industrial designer Luigi Serafini made a book, an illustrated encyclopedia of an unknown, parallel world. it is about 360-380 pages and written in an unknown language, using an unknown alphabet. Codex Seraphinianus is divided to 11 chapters and two parts – first one is about nature and the second one is about people. The book is often called “the strangest book on earth”, but most definately it is one you shouldn’t miss ‘reading’. a few sample pages below.
it has been compared to the Voynich manuscript an illustrated codex, hand-written in an unknown writing system, dated to the early 15th century.
