Textorizer - Great tool for you

If you enjoy making photos you might be interested in tool which I found today. It´s called textorizer and it makes miracles with yout photos.

How does it work?

Textorizer takes a raster image in a format such as png, jpeg or gif, detects edges using a sobel filter and replaces them with supplied lines of text.


It ´s up to you which words you will use when making your textorized image, how many lines of text to write you ´d like to see in the end. Of course you can manipulate height and width of your picture.

Have fun.

Dual Music Player

Dual Music Player looks like any Mp3 player available at many shops. But there is a difference. It can also play CD discs. You may like to ask how is it possible? You simply extend two parts of mp3 player and you´ll become smallest CD player ever made. Clever isn´t it?

But unfortunately it´s just a concept made by Yong-Seong Kim. But we all must confess that it looks great!

Highest web site ever


Did you ever wonder which web site is the Highest?

Jens Meiret created the World’s Highest Website! Currently, it’s 18.939 kilometers high and gives you enormous pleasure to scroll for about an hour. Accualy we will never know if it´s as long as it´s written unless someone prints it all. But I personally think it´s great and simple idea based on one HTML container and pure CSS styling. So if you have time scroll it all way down. :)

The Brown Note

Brown tone 2The brown note, according to an urban legend, is an infrasound frequency that causes humans to lose control of their bowels due to resonance. Different versions of the myth place the frequency between 5 and 20 Hz. The brown note was also described as 92 cents below the lowest octave of E-Flat. These low frequency vibration which, when reproduced at sufficient volume, resonates with the depths of the human digestive tract to cause loss of sphincter control, giving rise to immediate defecation.


Note was tested many times, some without effect, some with effect. I even tested it myself yesterday during one show from which I got an ispiration to write this artice. Nothing happened to me.
