This French video “La Chance” caught my attention
It is a complete puzzle that some people can be so lucky and get away with the most amazing narrow escapes and others well just are not so lucky.

I came across this post by Google of a new geeky toy they have introduced to their senior engineers. They refer to the toy as bloxes. The bloxes concept was invented by Jef Raskin who created the Macintosh project. A bloxe is a box that has six interlocking sides and was originally designed to create modular workstations.

Google have taken the concept added a few color bloxes and created something special at head quarters. Google first let their engineers at the bloxes in the lounge area but now it looks like Google have used it as a brain engager. Engineers use it to doodle and create things as they talk about bugs.

The whole idea of building a sculpture using elemental pieces is as old as the first puzzle or probably the first alter that Adam and Eve built when kicked out of the Garden of Eden. There seems to be something liberating about adding bloxes or puzzle pieces together or any other building block for that matter to create a whole.

Next time you need inspiration start adding things to things. The challenge is to build something. Perhaps a paper clip tower or whatever is at hand and then tell us how the creation process stimulated your creative juices.
