Photographer Andrew Hall expertly captures these liquids in motion. The simply colored backgrounds are an excellent touch as well!

iDoneThis blog: The science behind why better energy management is the key to peak productivity 
We live in a culture that seems obsessed with being productive.
While increasing our output and doing more with our time is certainly an admirable goal, according to Tony Schwartz, author of Be Excellent at Anything, that misguided approach is actually liable to hurt your productivity.
How so?
I wish schools took this into account more!

An arcology is an architectural typology consisting of mostly fictional or theoretical mega buildings that combine residential units with various civic & commerical ones all the while minimizing their impact on the environment. The word itself is a mashup of “architecture” and “ecology.” NOAH is just such a project. (The NOAH arcology, get it?) E. Kevin Schopfer proposed it to the City of New Orleans in 2009. It was expected to house 20,000 residences, 1,000,000 sf of commercial space, a school, a hospital and 3 casinos. It includes numerous sustainable elements such as wind and water turbines, solar panels, fresh water recovery, grey water treatment, passive glazing and sky garden heating and cooling vents, its open triangulated form would theoretically make it hurricane-proof, and did we mention that it floats? This enormously ambitious project has (surprise) not been developed, but we think the proposal was pretty phenomenal.
How cool is this????
