Reconstruction of the Beirut Port Explosion

Published on in 🔗 Links

In August there was a big explosion in the port of Beirut, which caused a lot of damage, unfortunately many people died. Forensic Architecture, a research group from London, has now reconstructed the course of events using publicly available information such as videos and photos. Especially the video on the website about the reconstruction is very interesting.

Mobile personal web server

Published on in 🔗 Links

Aral Balkan is doing some cool things with his Small Technology Foundation. Recently he built a personal mobile web server using a Raspberry Pi Zero (+ an LTE modem) and his web server project Site.js. What really fascinates me, is that it just needs a 14500 Lithium-ion battery, but then it is able to operate from basically everywhere with an LTE connection. Imagine all the use cases.
