This Summer’s Must-Have: Flip Mino HD
Richard | June 1, 2009
Yeah, yeah, long time no see! If you often feel like saying this, you probably travel a lot. If you travel a lot, you are either working internationally or you’re couch-surfing the world. If latter applies, did you ever wonder why you never take your camcorder with you? This is – most probably – because it is too bulky and heavy for your actions. And here (finally) comes the answer, if any: The Flip Mino, and the Flip Mino HD. At the size of a normal mobile phone, this full-fletched digital camcorder allows you to capture the very best moments in full-motion – at a comparably low price.

Willard Wigan is the creator of the world’s smallest sculptures, often taking months to complete one, working between heartbeats to avoid hand tremors. “You have to control the whole nervous system, you have to work between the heartbeat – the pulse of your finger can destroy the work.” Wigan uses a tiny surgical blade to carve microscopic figures out of gold, and fragments of grains of sand which are then mounted on pinheads. To paint his creations, he uses a hair plucked from a dead fly (the fly has to have died from natural causes, as he refuses to kill them for the sake of his art, preferring to decorate a glass sheet instead). His sculptures have included a Santa Claus and a copy of the FIFA World Cup trophy, both about 0.005mm (0.0002in) tall, and a boxing ring with Muhammad Ali figure which fits onto the head of a match.
