A smaller doze of The Headlong Rush |
I live in a tropical island paradise. It's not always great but I make the most of it. I dive, I snorkel, and I am a lionfish culler. I am young and able. At 32, I still watch animes. I like reading and I love my Kindle, I like the world wide web, I like gadgets specially my AppleTV. I think technology is awesome and fun and no one should miss out. But most of all, I am in love with my son. No matter how sour life can be at times, life is just great! Living is the way to be. |

New bionic eye is powered by - wait for it - light!
Necessity, meet your mother, invention.
A retinal implant - or bionic eye - which is powered by light has been invented by scientists at Stanford University in California.
Implants currently used in patients need to be powered by a battery.
The new device, described in the journal Nature Photonics, uses a special pair of glasses to beam near infrared light into the eye. This powers the implant and sends the information which could help a patient see.
Diseases such as age-related macular degeneration and retinal pigmentosa result in the death of cells which can detect light in the eye. Eventually this leads to blindness.
Amazing!

Spa House is set on the mountainside on the urban edge of Hout Bay, overlooking the bay and harbour, and surrounded by weathered sandstone formations. The primary design intention was to integrate the building with the powerful landscape and to derive its poetics from the qualities of its surroundings.
