Augmented (hyper)Reality: Domestic Robocop from Keiichi Matsuda on Vimeo.

Keiichi Matsuda created this video for his final project while studying for his Masters in Architecture. The video shows how the world might look like if we were to be surrounded with information that’s literally piped into our eyesight. We would be able to cover reality with info boxes and have all sorts of information at our fingertips. Some would be fearful of this sort of thing, but I think it’s utterly fantastic! I can only hope for a future where this is a reality. [via]

Using data from the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), FlowingPrints has created 3 original poster prints that give a quick outline of various educational statistics in the United States. The print shown above (click it to view larger) is the third in the set and it takes a look at the way America learns by incorporating tangram puzzles into the design of the poster.

Each poster is $20, but you can purchase the entire set of 3 for $40.
