Brookline, MA-based Jin Choi & Thomas Shine of Choi+Shine recently received the 2010 Boston Society of Architects Unbuilt Architecture Award for their "Land of Giants" project. The project was originally submitted for an Icelandic pylon competition, where it received an honorable mention. The competition was to find a new typology for Iceland's high voltage power lines and pylons. This design transforms mundane electrical pylons into statues on the Icelandic landscape by making only small alterations to existing pylon design. The pylon-figures can be configured to respond to their environment with appropriate gestures. As the carried electrical lines ascend a hill, the pylon-figures change posture, imitating a climbing person. Over long spans, the pylon-figure stretches to gain increased height, crouches for increased strength or strains under the weight of the wires.

Here is an interesting way to fight summer heat in the Japanese way. There are wending machines selling ice cold panties for 1,000 yen ($11.6). And if the weather is extremely hot a girl can buy one and wear it. The manufacturer says that the panties are also suitable for wearing on the head.

Every adrenaline junkie would enjoy a flight in the world's first glass-bottomed balloon. It made its first flight at the 2010 Bristol International Balloon Fiesta. The balloon with transparent floor was created by Christian Brown, who has been hot air pilot for 18 years, traveled around the world in a balloon with Sir Richard Branson and holds the tethered altitude world record at 10,000 feet (3,050 m). He says the experience of flying this new airship was terrifying. And the most important part is that it will be available to the public in the next year.
