These Photos Have Incredible Stories to Tell.


This is one of the most amazing collection of photographs. Not because they are especially beautiful (although some are), but because of the meaning each of them has, and how each of them makes us think or feel something. These are worth more than a thousand words, and each tell a story about the world we live in.

The Beauty Of The Sea In New Layered Glass Sculptures

Ben Young’s new collection will be featured at the Sculpture Objects Functional Art + Design (SOFA) Fair in Chicago next month. These pieces focus on lonesome objects framed by the sea – a lone fisherman or an isolated island flagged with a sole palm tree.
The artist doesn’t use any high-tech equipment. Instead, he hand-cuts and handcrafts all of the single glass panels himself, layering them one after the other to re-create the ocean’s subtle waves.

What Happens When A Woman Tries To Pee By The Roadside

People urinating in public spaces is a frequent sight in India. But part of this open micturition is caused by a severe lack of public toilets.
Women face the worst of this problem. Not only do they have to encounter men relieving themselves openly, women also struggle to find toilets — clean toilets, especially — where they could do their business without risking their safety or health, sometimes from wild animals and snakes, sometimes from sexual predators.
In rural India, having toilets in one’s house is a bit of a luxury. Women relieve themselves in open fields, thus risking rape and murder. 
Bindeshwar Pathak, who founded Sulabh International, the NGO that has been building toilets all over India, says: “Absence of toilets in houses, particularly in rural areas, is behind such incidents of rapes and sexual assaults in villages.”
According to National Crime Records Bureau data, 93 women are raped in India everyday. Imagine the numbers that could have been avoided had some of those women access to toilets.
The crew at Video Daddy did a social experiment with their actor asking directions to the nearest toilet. Since there was none to be found, some people advised her to head to the beach.
The video raises a valid question: can we be truly proud of India’s recent trip to Mars when millions of Indian women can’t even access a toilet?
Watch what happens: 



Floating Building In London

Somewhere in London, a 40-foot-long building has ripped itself free from its stone base and lifted itself up to levitate over 10 feet in the air! The architectural feat, located in London’s Covent Garden’s East Piazza, is actually an elaborate illusion staged by artist and designer Alex Chinneck.
He took inspiration for his illusion, dubbed “Take My Lightning But Don’t Steal My Thunder,” from the rich heritage of the Market Building, modelling the look and feel of the illusionary extension on the original 184-year-old Market Building. The structure was crafted entirely out of CNC-cut lightweight polystyrene blocks that were made to mimic the look of stone, and then assembled like a jigsaw puzzle
Chinneck is no stranger to playful architectural illusions. He has a history of turning houses upside down and sliding lazy walls down the sides of massive buildings. He even inverted a 1.5-tonne rotating thatched roof once, balancing it perilously on the tip of a wind vane.
