#Oscar winner! 🏆 #HairLove was launched as a @kickstarter in July, 2017 by former NFL wide receiver turned filmmaker @matthewacherry. It quickly earned over 3x its original funding goal and was picked up by @sonyanimation. On February 9th, 2020, Hair Love won an #AcademyAward for #BestAnimatedShortFilm.
🎀
“This story was born out of seeing a lack of #representation in mainstream animated projects, and also wanting to promote hair love amongst young men and women of color. It is our hope that this project will inspire.” 🎀

An onion we didn’t eat. 🧅🌱 What foods and kitchen scraps should we plant next?

Happy Friday! What’s inside a pocket camera? 🤔📷 Cairo-based product designer @dina.a.amin asked this question in 2016 as a part of her weekly #TinkerFriday #stopmotion project. (Link in bio.) Since then, she’s been creating wonderfully cute and quirky shorts for clients and for fun. ⚙️🔧🤖 I love her new “Guess How Many Parts Are Inside” gadget series. Find her #videos at @dina.a.amin and on TKSST.com.

On a recent @thelabreatarpits visit, we spent time watching volunteers and scientists as they cleaned and conserved #fossils in the #pagemuseum’s wonderfully windowed paleontological lab. ⛏🦴✨🔬 Don’t miss that large specimen in the 3rd photo!

Link in bio for more: “These remains of plants and animals from the past 50,000 years show us how wildlife changes as climate changes. #Paleontologists are now working on specimens from Project 23, the treasure trove of fossils that was discovered during the construction of a @LACMA parking lot in 2006.”
