DARPA + Segway = Fantastic Artificial Arm

Dean Kamen’s Artificial “Luke” Arm – Segway inventor reinvents the prosthetic arm: “I’ve been able to do stuff with this that I haven’t, seriously haven’t, done in 26 years… uh, pick up a banana, peel a banana and eat it without it squishening… I can’t wait to get one of these in a real environment, a home environment, and actually my wife can’t either. She’s going, oh yeah, I got lots of stuff for you to do.”

Artists Against the War

Artists Against War

Peace Bomb, 2005, Digital and mixed media

This show is the expression of over 60 of the top graphic artists and illustrators working in the United States and abroad whose anguish has compelled them to produce works that challenge the self-destructive ignorance, indifference, incompetence and corruption that is the result of US Middle East foreign policy. These works of art will give a voice to those whose views are not represented by the mainstream media. We will be using this forum as a way to support those most directly affected by the harsh consequences of military combat—the brave men and women who serve their country as well as their family members who must live with the affects of war long after the parades are over.
