German Commuter Knits Four-Foot-Long Scarf Detailing Transit Delays
23 Jan 01:00:01 | ThisIsColossal
German commuter and knitter Claudia Weber travels regularly from her town Moosburg in the Bavarian countryside to Munich. Due to track repairs which began last year, her train commute was replaced with a bus service that would often be delayed for up to 30 minutes or longer. Weber decided to start detailing her daily travel troubles by translating the delays into a wool scarf. Each evening after she returned home she would add two new rows to her textile work? gray for any delay under five minutes, pink for when she had to wait up to 30 minutes, and bright red for a delay that lasted more than a half hour or was in both directions.

Large-Scale Drawings of the United Kingdom?s 69 Cities by Carl Lavia
19 Jan 01:00:02 | ThisIsColossal
Self-taught artist Carl Lavia, who goes by the nickname “Sketch,” has been drawing intricate cities and architecturally-minded illustrations since he was the age of five. Although his early works were imaginative renderings of fictionalized cities, his practice has grown into immensely detailed depictions of large cities from an aerial point of view. Lavia uses ink and archival paper to produce each drawing, which appear like maps from a distance, but have a loose, almost Impressionist style when viewed up close. More

Graphically Designed Ceramic Vessels Form Zoetrope Animations When Spun on a Pottery Wheel
19 Jan 01:00:02 | ThisIsColossal
After years of work as a ceramic artist, Kenny Sing of Turn Studio has created a series of shallow vessels which double as zoetrope animations when spun. His project, Trep?, transfers digital patterns onto the one-of-a-kind curves of his ceramic platters. The patterns are then either precisely cut from or glazed onto their surface. These elements act as static designs until they are activated by a pottery wheel. More

A Gigantic Circular Ice Patch Formed in a River in Westbrook, Maine
17 Jan 01:00:01 | ThisIsColossal
Earlier this week a peculiar phenomenon was discovered in a section of the Presumpscot River in Westbrook, Maine. In the chilly winter waters a gigantic disk of ice had formed with a diameter just short of the river’s width. The floating patch was recently captured by the city in an aerial video. In the footage a nearby parking garage seems dwarfed by the mammoth proportions of the circular ice patch. According to Westbrook’s marketing and communications manager Tine Radel, the icy island has been spinning in a counterclockwise direction, and does not appear to be moving up or downstream. More
