Dr. Who - revisited
Apparently this is another in the series of stained glass panels that were used in advertising but never actually produced in glass. This is one of the more impressive glass simulations - my hat's off to the designer. Brilliant!

Korean Pavilion for Shanghai Expo
From the Blog - Design Envy:
The overall volume, lifted 24 feet above ground level, is created by converging 20 basic letters of the Korean alphabet, Hangul, allowing signs to create the exhibition space, and so that the visitors can experience their geometry through horizontal, vertical and diagonal movements. The primary geometries that compose the Hangul letters are universal to other cultures, thus acting as a sort of open set of signs that is engaging to everyone.http://designenvy.aiga.org/korean-pavilion-for-shanghai-expo-mass-studies/

Memories of Prague
Anamorphic art, where the distorted image on the disk is reflected more "accurately" on the chrome cylinder.

LaFarge @ Detroit Institute of Art
Reposted from LOOKING AT GLASS:
Today I am looking at the Helping Angel Stained Glass Panel at the Detroit Institute of Art. The John LaFarge panel is dated 1890 and was formerly installed in the Unitarian Church, Woodward Avenue at Edmund Place, Detroit, Michigan.

Issue 63 of Vidimus
Issue 63 of Vidimus, the first this autumn, is on line now at http://vidimus.org/.
We have much of interest in our News page, with the
appointment of a new Curator for the Stained Glass Museum, updates about the
conservation of the Herkenrode glass at Lichfield Cathedral, and news from the
recent international Corpus Vitrearum colloquium in Vienna. We have another
fascinating Feature, on seventeenth-century glass associated
with Winchester Cathedral by Geoffrey Lane, an expert on the period, and instead
of a Books page this month we have an update on our recent feature on the beautiful glass at Hatton.

TARDIS on Etsy
Since my son was Dr. Who for Halloween and I take credit for turning the next generation of my family onto the series, I had to do a double take when I came across this image. Apparently the designer can't make them fast enough to keep up with the demand. Brilliant! http://www.etsy.com/transaction/61729878
