The Nerdiest Sweater Vest in the World
Knitting stitches are basically pixels, right? I took that idea to the extreme, and converted a screenshot of Level 1-1 from the original NES Mario Bros. game into a ginormous knitting chart made up of over 10 sheets of tabloid paper taped together, which I used to make a sweater vest for my video game-loving husband.
I want one.

Twelve rejected Star Wars promotional items, many of which I would buy in a heartbeat if they were actually available...and if it were still 1984.

The last thing that Neil remembers, he was drunk playing a game of Zelda when he whipped out his memeber and he masturbated to the fairy in the game cause she was kinda hot and then he asphixiated himself with a Nintendo game controller and that somehow transported him into the game...

Runnin' a Train
Before SimCity — even before Dungeons and Dragons — back when “computer” was a job title, people still found ways to vaporize countless hours of free time designing and maintaining private universes. In the analog world, such parallel realities were built with tweezers, glue and a spouse’s permission to cover the basement with papier-mâché massifs and plywood plains.

The Precision Hack
There’s a scene toward the end of the book Contact by Carl Sagan, where the protagonist Ellie Arroway finds a Message embedded deep in the digits of PI. The Message is perhaps an artifact of an extremely advanced intelligence that apparently manipulated one of the fundamental constants of the universe as a testament to their power as they wove space and time. I’m reminded of this scene by the Time.com 100 Poll where millions have voted on who are the world’s most influential people in government, science, technology and the arts. Just as Ellie found a Message embedded in PI, we find a Message embedded in the results of this poll.

Compact: With a Vengeance
In case you missed it, the Mythbusters crank the season opener up to 11, attempting to fuse metal to metal and "pancake" a compact car. They tried replicating the myth, but this is the video of their attempt to replicate the mythical results.
Confirmed, plausible, or busted, this is pretty epic.

The 10,000 Year Clock
Computer scientist Danny Hillis conceived of the 10,000 Year Clock project as a monument to long-term thinking. The design and development on the clock began in 1997 and has itself been a long-term and time-consuming process, already having generated an array of ideas and prototypes as well as mechanical and design patents. The designers hope that with a longer sense of time will come a more broad and long-term way of thinking, and a greater sense of what is possible in the future.
