fuckyeahajenglish: AJ ENGLISH IN CALVIN HARRIS BOUNCE VIDEO
materialworld: “During the plague in the Middle Ages, some doctors wore a primitive form of biohazard suit called “plague suits”. The mask included red glass eyepieces, which were thought to make the wearer impervious to evil. The beak of the mask was often filled with strongly aromatic herbs and spices to overpower the miasmas or “bad air” which was also thought to carry the plague.” (via meshkaret:skysignal) Studying social policy I focussed on health, specifically an international comparison of public responses to the HIV/AIDS epidemic. Can you guess how iconic this beaky doctor is in plague studies!? Having big costume skills respect now.

bitchville: Japanese artist Iori Tomita transforms the scientific technique of preserving and dying organisms into an art form with this series entitled New World Transparent Specimens. The images give us an breathtaking look at the inner workings of underwater life. The process Tomita goes through is extremely extensive. First, he removes the scales and skin that have been preserved in formaldehyde. He then soaks the creatures in a stain that dyes the cartilage blue. Tomita uses a digestive enzyme called trypsin, along with a host of other chemicals, to break down the proteins and muscles, halting the process just at the moment they become transparent. The bones are stained with red dye, and the specimen is preserved in a jar of glycerin. From start to finish, the entire production takes about five months to a year. http://www.shinsekai-th.com/en/photo.php
