Mairlyn Smith, a cookbook author and self-proclaimed Queen of Fibre, recently took to TikTok to explain her and her husband's nightly ritual of fartwalking. Yes, fartwalking. 'You fart when you walk,' she explains. 'That's why I named it that.' The purpose of a 10-minute...

The latest project from the always-clever technology artist Nicole He (previously) is The Crush House, a thirst-person (sic) shooter video game that plunges into the shoes of a reality TV producer. The goal is not to murder the vain and selfish contestants (as tempting as it ...
If graphical demos generated by extremely short snippets of code tend to be correspondingly brief, Remnants by Alcatraz is startlingly extensive. I just can't believe this somehow emerges from 256 bytes of code! Slow pans across a detailed industrial fractal city, fading...
