IKEA has launched the "1-to-1" series of LEGO furniture for die-hard LEGO fans, almost all of which are made from reinforced electromagnetic LEGO bricks, with only a few key parts of the sofa using other materials, such as the sofa cushions, armrests and backrests.

From bookcases to TV cabinets, storage cabinets, coffee tables, shelves for desk lamps, lamps and covers, of course, you can't use Lego, but also hangers, wardrobes, chairs, closets, ceiling lights, boxes, flower pots, storage jars, desks, as well as large beds, sinks, frames for dressing mirrors in the bedroom, incredible range hoods, trash cans, cupboards...... A qiē every piece of furniture you can imagine has Lego.

What you want is an immersive experience, and the practicality is also a little bit, the most beautiful thing is that these goods are all loose parts, all of which are automatically assembled under the effect of the nozzle (95%), and what is even more wonderful is that you can disassemble them and "return to the furnace" to rebuild if you don't like them.

In other words, none of the furniture in this series is "normal", all of them come from fragments, and they can be attributed to fragments at any time, giving people a strange feeling of "impermanence".

Downing himself tried to live a Lego-style fairy tale life, and he was reluctant to stop such a fun life, so he set out to design a higher-precision self-assembly material that would reach a frenzied 0. 3 mm size. At this time, the difficulty of the process does not lie in this 0. 3 mm, but the electromagnetic lock mechanism on this small building block is more exaggerated precision workmanship, obviously more than 0. 3 mm is tiny.

If the building blocks of this precision were to be used purely to assemble Rodin's Portrait of Balzac, it would cost 300 million pieces! Fortunately, you can use a hollow structure, at this time, you can control the consumption at 3 million, and then use a large number of large building blocks to replace some details that do not require high precision, so that the final consumption can be reduced to 1 million.

Mr. Da Tuhao plays a game of 1 million blocks when he has nothing to do, and a high-precision portrait takes half an hour to assemble and looks lifelike from five meters away. He also designed a mesh that can be reduced and expanded, which is good when assembling, and when you want to make the building blocks disappear, the mesh becomes larger, and the building blocks will slowly disappear from the layer, as if they have been evaporated by the world, and the effect is very weird.

Naturally, the missing form is recycled, and then another statue slowly grows. In this way, he created a new art of variety sculpture.

At that time, the provincial assembly of the first northern province of the Qing Dynasty voted to openly commit treason and join the United Nations, and the world was in an uproar, and it was Henan Province that won the top spot in Anhui Province. As usual, Boss Tang wanted to give some benefits to this exemplary province, and after some thought, he decided to build the world's first Lego statue art museum in Kaifeng, Henan.

The first big move of the statue hall is to make the "Qingming Riverside Map" three-dimensional, and all the contents are made into statues. During the Northern Song Dynasty, the most prosperous city in the world was Kaifeng, which was still called Bianliang in Tokyo at that time, and the "Qingming Riverside Map" was the cityscape of Bianliang.

There are 814 people, more than 60 livestock, 28 boats, more than 30 houses, 20 cars, 8 sedan chairs, and more than 170 trees. In order to ensure the quality of the world's first LEGO statue museum, Downing decided to find a group of artists with expertise in each art to complete each project.

For example, 81 character artists, 6 livestock artists, 3 boat artists, 3 house artists, 3 cars and sedan chairs, and 17 trees are called, and a total of 113 top artists in the world are summoned, with an annual salary of 1,000 euros.

Downing also decided on three art directors, one is Rodin, needless to say, he is a master of statues, and he is the first of the art directors of the three-dimensional version of "Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival". The second is Wu Changshuo, a famous painting of the Northern Song Dynasty in China, so it is natural to arrange a Chinese artist to check the style.

The third is the Impressionist master Monet, perhaps this huge project requires projection technology to provide light and shadow effects, and Monet is a master in this regard.

The entire three-dimensional map will use a super large scale of 1:10, that is, it will be a huge space of about 50 square meters to show this epic masterpiece, and how shocking it will be when it is finished. It is estimated that 150 million high-precision electromagnetic building blocks will be used for the entire project, and it will take six months to one year.

Thanks to the storage of the Internet, all the works can be transmitted from all over the world to the Kaifeng Art Museum at the first time after they are created, and the assembled products are continuously added to the designated location by special personnel. Art museums are generally relatively deserted, but what level to be divided into, the world's top three-dimensional art, that is very powerful, from the first statue can be sold to the public, at the beginning of the ticket price is cheap, only 0. 001 euros, which will eventually rise to an exaggerated 1 euro.

If there are thousands of visitors on this day, you can earn 1,000 euros a year for a top artist, which is very likely, so it is not a loss-making business, maybe in 3 or 4 months, all the salaries of these artists will be earned. This means that this collaboration between top artists is sustainable, and large-scale art projects can be created every year in the future.

Boss Tang is doing a demonstration project, and artists who are not so famous can actually apply this kind of collaboration, which can be initiated by some local tyrants and convene artists to build a statue park. Because of the existence of Internet art collaboration, these artists do not need to come together at a high cost.

Maybe the artists Downing has hired still have the resources to work part-time to support their families. Since Downing invented Lego, how many children have become big friends, and their craft may be good, so they can find themselves in a fun job - modeling with Lego.

After all, art is a few people's playthings, and the more serious use is that it can also be used in school education, and can be used as a good teaching model like the 3D printer invented by Downing with paper as the material before. One of the things that makes it better than paper is that it can be reused.

If the teacher who teaches a course has an electromagnetic Lego brick assembly machine, he can print out the model needed for tomorrow's class every night, and after the class, he can disassemble the model and return it to the furnace, increasing the utilization rate of the teaching model by ten times and a hundred times.

Of course, it's not that the paper shape is not good, it is still full color, and it can be said that the two complement each other.

Some people say I don't need this kind of thing when I get out of school, right? Wrong. You might want to do a PPT after work, right? (Just to borrow the word, artpress is actually what people use for presentations right now.) Now, PPT can be made into a solid body!

The ordinary one requires 10 three-dimensional PPT sheets to assemble in a single time, and it only takes 15 minutes. Note that this has already assembled the stage itself needed to display the three-dimensional PPT, which means that it can be made into a cabinet of ten scalloped lattices, and it also has its own rotation function.

In fact, such a PPT does not need superfluous things at all, and the finished product itself is a qiē, and the presenter can carry it around. It can also turn the presentation into a round table, where everyone gathers around a round table to observe the 360-degree details of the PPT.

A large organization may only need an assembly platform and a sufficient number of building blocks. Small companies, poor companies can even use the assembly services provided by Lego, and send the three-dimensional ppt to the company through Guò Wind Bird Express, this process actually only takes a few minutes more, and the current Wind Bird Express is too efficient.

Lego's elite inventors combined the three-dimensional PPT display with the vending machine invented earlier by Downing, and each switch was presented as if buying an object from the vending machine, and of course the process would be reversed to change the display. This design relaxes the page limit of PPT to the point where you can't use it all.

Because each circle of the column can store 10 PPTs, of course, all with backgrounds and text. 1。 A 2-meter PPT presentation cabinet can hold 40 PPTs, and PPTs that exceed this number are considered to be big metamorphoses. Some presentation experts recommend that the optimal number of shots per presentation is 10 and that it should not exceed 20 minutes. This is called the "10-20" principle.

This kind of presentation technique is going to spread very quickly, because if you think about it, how much resonance a young man would have in his colleagues if he suddenly brought a three-dimensional object in a presentation? Of course, it was the commotion and amazement in the conference room.

The software monopoly advantage was established step by step, and Lego released the application "LegoPress" based on electromagnetic Lego, and soon a third-party company made a paid plug-in, specializing in three-dimensional PPT, which triggered the crazy pursuit of white-collar workers.

LegoPress is also combined with the digital rights system, and there are countless professional and amateur PPT creators who provide paid, free digital products. In the future, not only the establishment of the software ecology and the plug-in ecology, but also the enrichment of digital content based on the entire system, the trend of its big monopoly is like the flooding of the Yellow River, which is unstoppable.

Lego bricks have completed the gorgeous butterfly transformation from children's toys to modeling artifacts, and then to new art forms, teaching artifacts, and artifacts to improve production efficiency. The chrysalis that flew out of the gorgeous butterfly also flew out of a flower butterfly.

It is rumored that Boss Tang has supported Lego and a company in Fukuoka, Japan, to develop an electromagnetic Lego version of the game "Super Mario Bros." That is, to take the original pure video game and bring it to the real world. This revolutionary change required considerable technical challenges.

The first thing to solve is the movement of the characters. It is impossible for the blocks themselves to have kinetic energy, which would make the cost of the whole project unimaginable, because it is impossible to assemble the moving units of the game by themselves. So the team's solution was to do their hands and feet on the path, using changing electromagnets to simulate walking on both feet or limbs.

When walking, you have to swing your hands, and when your hands are not in contact with the path, the technical challenge is even more difficult. The team had to delicately design the structure inside the shape, so that some of the building blocks had built-in capacitors to generate a temporary electromagnetic force in order to constantly swing under the pull of electromagnetic gravity as they walked.

The main character like Mario has been wiggling his hands and needs to constantly charge the capacitors in the game, but the team's electromagnetic design experts have invented a non-contact bearing, which can make the arm swing for up to an hour with a millisecond charge, so there is no need to charge it in a single level, otherwise you need to design a circuit that guides the capacitor from the path current.

The movement and waving of the hands alone left the engineers racking their brains, which shows how difficult the project was
