The Spark of Thought…in Lego!

Drive reader Ted Chapman sent in this awesome pic of The Spark of Thought, rendered in LEGO! Check it out:

Thanks, Ted — that’s awesome.

And in other fun news, a graphics-and-industrial design professor in Calgary told me he’s assigning his class the task of rendering The Spark of Thought in 3-D (…with the hope of 3-D printing it!) Keep your fingers crossed, cause that would be awesome.




Thank you, Calgary!

I just wanted to take a second to thank all the Drive readers who came out and said “hi” this past weekend in Calgary — you were awesome! It was really fun seeing old and new faces, and the overall reception of the city couldn’t have been nicer.

You guys cleaned me out on Saturday! I was sold out of virtually every book and every tidbit. My apologies to those of you who came by on Sunday and didn’t get the book you wanted: That’s never happened before!

In any case, you guys made that show incredibly fun for me: I really hope they invite me back next year, as it’s a ton of fun.
