Planets Converge to Form Rare Glowing Triangle This Weekend
This weekend, three planets will nestle together in the western sky at twilight to form a rarely seen glowing triangle. With good timing and a bit of luck you should be able to see it without a telescope.
Mercury, Venus, and Jupiter have been converging in the sky in the past month and will form their tightest clump on Sunday, May 26. This triple conjunction — visible from most of North America and Europe — will be easiest to see with the naked eye between 30 and 60 minutes after sunset, according to NASA.

Saul Leiter, New York (c. 1950)
“Saul Leiter was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. His father was a well known Talmud scholar and Saul studied to become a Rabbi. His mother gave him a Detrola camera at age 12. At age 23, he left theology school and moved to New York City to become an artist. He had developed an early interest in painting and was fortunate to meet the Abstract Expressionist painter Richard Pousette-Dart. Pousette-Dart and W. Eugene Smith encouraged Leiter to pursue photography and he was soon taking black and white pictures with a 35 mm Leica, which he acquired for a few Eugene Smith prints. In 1948, he started taking color photographs. He began associating with other contemporary photographers such as Robert Frank and Diane Arbus and helped form what Jane Livingston has termed the New York School of photographers during the 1940s and 1950s.” - Wikipedia
Electricity
Swedish studio Belatchew Arkitekter wants to transform a Stockholm skyscraper into a wind farm by covering it in thousands of electricity-generating bristles. “What is usually considered to be the most static of all things, the building, suddenly comes alive and the construction gives the impression of a body that is breathing,” explain the architects.
This is more about Yahoo! than Tumblr, Yahoo! don’t really want to change Tumblr, but they want to use Tumblr to change Yahoo!, it’s not such a bad thing, it’s clear they have branding problems and it’s clear that Tumblr is doing it right. I think it’s exciting to see what Tumblr will do with Yahoo! tbh, not the other way around.
Symmetrium by Niko Luoma
Luoma on his work:
My material is light. The work focuses on energy rather than matter. My work is about the process as much as about the result.
My process combines systems of calculation and change. I find my inspiration in mathematics and geometry; symmetry and chaos, both imagined and found in nature…
In my recent “symmetrium” series, time reveals the process through thousands of exposures on a single negative.
