Earth is epic too.

Stratocam is a bunch of bookmarks of places in Google Maps – but that totally doesn’t do it justice. There’s an incredible range of stuff here to pore over, from the natural fractals of swamps and rivers to the man-made tapestry of freight-rail yards in Belgium.

I love the combination of nosiness and geeking out over interesting stuff on Google Maps anyway, but this really is something else; I could spend hours browsing the amazing colours and shapes and patterns and lines and everything else – and it’s not even art, it’s stuff that’s out there in the world, just sitting there being naturally ace.

Awesome.

Hi-fi sci-fi ci-sca. Yep, that’s a thing now.

I really like these illustrations by Atelier Olschinsky - amazingly detailed, twisted cityscapes and tangled architecture. They’re very sci-fi, like super-detailed comic book art cross with those crazy crystalline micro-photography images that peer into salt crystals and stuff.

There’s loads more of this and other cool stuff on his site here: http://www.olschinsky.at/
