"You are the yellow marble on the rafting track.
From the entrance it goes 200 cm upwards in a special elevator.
Followed by 500 cm of acrylic glass tube.
Downwards it goes through a 1500 cm distance.
Good luck on the dangerous track.
There are already some crashed.

Charcoal Candles

via Spoon & Tamago "Japanese designer Eisuke Tachikawa, who runs the design firm Nosigner, is currently in Paris where he is unveiling several new works at the major French trade show Maison et Objet. Working with one of his favorite themes of memory, Tachikawa has created a candle modeled from, and blended with, charcoal. The design harkens back to days before electricity when our ancestors would burn charcoal to pass the dark nights."
