Robotic Rings
Our favorite robots straight from Aperture Laboratories can now be worn with any outfit. It also transform the question of “Did he put a ring on it?” to the gamer version, “Did he put a Wheatley ring on it?”

Hackers turned MIT’s Green Building into a giant, playable, and multi-color Tetris game. A console allowed players to move, rotate, and drop blocks.
The Green Building (Building 54) is home to the MIT Earth and Planetary Sciences department.
MIT hackers have long considered “Tetris on the Green Building” to be the Holy Grail of hacks, as the side of the building is a wonderful grid for the game.
The game started off scrolling the words “TETRIS” and then would start into the first level. As the player progressed, the second level would start with more pale colors, making it harder to identify the type of block. The third level involved the colors shifting on-screen. Upon losing the game, all of the blocks would fall to the bottom of the building.

Luminaris is a recent stop motion short featuring some delightful sequences using shadows, lightbulbs, and marbles.
