Peering into Space : Finding Inspiration in Satellite Imagery (I)
@erb: I have always been fascinated by satellite images of our solar system. The textures and terrains of the planets, moons and asteroids around us (and beneath us) have often found their way into my drawings, and flipping through the images often sparks new ideas for my collection of short stories. In each post in this series, I will present one of my original drawings alongside a resource for incredible satellite images.

@gochuchamchi. Law-Me Brothers is a visual narrative that they re-created based on true stories and shared on Steemit. The design of the poster is inspired by movie posters from the 80's which were often hand-painted by graphic artists.

@mintvilla: Climate change has impacted different regions in different ways but where I live, in East Coast, we definitely have been experiencing more precipitation each year. The problem with rainfall is not only about the weathering event itself but non-point source pollution exacerbates with more rainfall.

[오늘의 English 단어] #50. 옷장 속의 아이언 맨? - Skeleton in the Closet
@bree1042: From now on I'd like to start a new series of English words: Body Worlds. Don't worry. I won't show you any mummified human body here. In this series, I'll teach English words and expressions that have body parts in it, such as skeleton in the closet, neck and neck, from hand to mouth, etc. Today I'd like to teach "skeleton in the closet".

Blockchain Bachelor’s Thesis – Information Overflow and How to Deal with It
@fingersik: This year (actually in about 4 months) I’ll have to present my Bachelor’s thesis. What does that mean for me? It means that I will have to spend hundreds of hours doing research, summing the knowledge up and finally writing down the outcome. What will I receive for it? The biggest advantage is that I’ll have deeper understanding of how to deal with information overflow, thus making myself a more efficient human being. What about Blockchanizing the Bachelor’s thesis through Steemit though?
