FRONTLINES INTERNET 14 Holland Herald Instant art critic Online ■ Expert opinion Biggest jellyfish “As an advocate of the Big Mac Aesthetic, I feel that the internal dynamic of the negative space spatially undermines the distinctive formal juxtapositions.” If this sentence baffl es you, don’t worry. It’s meant to. In the same way that art criticism can seem entirely geared towards confusing rather than clarifying, the sentence comes from an online ‘instant art phrase generator’. Type in any random number and enjoy the arty mumbo-jumbo. See pixmaven.com/phrase_ generator.html. The lion’s mane jellyfi sh is the biggest known species of jellyfi sh, with a body of up to 70 centimetres across and tentacles of 15 metres. Russian marine biologist Alexander Semenov recently managed to capture the aquatic giant on camera in the icy waters of the Russian White Sea. Home to the White Sea Biological Station, this northern sea is twice the size of Denmark. Photo: Stan Honda/AFP/ANP Illustration: Allan Grotjohann Machine Cheers! Serious gear ■ Home microbrewery Authentic fake Swiss scientist Francis W. M. R. Schwarze has found two types of tree fungus that can reproduce the rare, highly dense wood used by Antonio Stradivari over 300 years ago to make his world-famous violins. In a blind test, listeners could not tell the difference between a modern instrument made of the treated wood and an authentic 1711 Stradivarius. Spare room in the basement? Perhaps this automated brewing system by Hammacher Schlemmer can fi ll the void (and free up the bathtub). It’s the same type used in professional microbreweries, but has been scaled down to a size more suitable for home use. Electronic sensors do all of the work. Just enter the recipe (a lager, Hefeweizen wheat beer or stout) on the touch screen and pour in the ingredients. Comes complete with beer steins. See hammacher.com.
