Next time you’re at a party and want to leave an impression on someone say: “I bet you don’t know how to slice a doughnut into 13 pieces with just three cuts!” (This puts a very vivid image in my head of Ryan Gosling saying: “Hey Girl, do you know how to slice a doughnut into 13 pieces with only three cuts?”)
From “The 2nd Scientific American Book of Mathematical Puzzles & Diversions” via the Reanimation Library, a really great project looking to resurrect “cultural debris.” They have some amazing images.

Handmade Star Whale Plushie
This is my Star Whale, Jeffrey. He is approximately 8 ft long, 3 ft wide, and weighs a lot for a plushie. He is entirely hand stitched (because I don’t know how to use a sewing machine) and is composed of 2-3 sq yards of fleece and nearly 160 ounces of polyester stuffing. It took me somewhere between 24 and 36 hours to design a pattern from only this picture and make him (I lost track of time a lot.)
I will be bringing him to Gallifrey One this year so if you see him come say hi.
I am currently making another Star Whale but this one will only be about 4 feet long (my intended size for the first.)
I’m pretty sure I also have this photo, but with different lighting…

Spot on: The Obliteration Room by Yayoi Kusama – in pictures
The Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama transformed a completely white room, including furniture, into a spectacle featuring her signature dots, helped by children who visited the exhibition over two weeks and placed brightly coloured stickers throughout the installation at the Gallery of Modern Art, Brisbane. The interactive children’s project is part of Kusama’s Look Now, See Forever exhibition. Kusama will also have a major exhibition at London’s Tate Modern from 9 February.
