South Korea to Build ‘Invisible’ Skyscraper

By -



While burgeoning cities across the globe ostentatiously display their glitzy skyscrapers — from Dubai’s Burj Khalifa to Kuala Lumpur’s Petronas Towers — Incheon has something else in mind: putting a 450-meter-high building into stealth mode.

According to California-based GDS Architects, the South Korean government approved this fall the construction of City Tower (unofficially called “Tower Infinity”), a skyscraper that uses LEDs to project the image of the sky from behind it, as captured by cameras on the other side. The result is no less than amusing: a structure that seemingly disappears from Incheon’s skyline.

But critics argue that its location, 18 miles west of Seoul, but just a few miles east of Korea’s busiest airport, raises concerns about flight safety. However, Korea Land & Housing Corporation downplayed any risks the spectacle might pose in the Korean skies.

Meet 5-year-old Han Jiaying, from Shenyang, China. This little girl discovered that she has a superpower that children all over the world wish they possessed. She can hypnotize animals with her touch and her voice.  The ability to seemingly hypnotize animals is a skill that has to be developed over time. The process, in scientific terms, is known as tonic immobility. By gently, but also firmly holding an animal in your hands and laying it on its side or back, you can illicit a natural reaction in the creature that exists to protect it from predators. The animal temporarily goes limp, hoping that a predator will fail to notice it, and eventually the animal’s muscles regain motion and it goes scampering on its way. To showcase the full array of her abilities, Han put to sleep a dog, a lizard, a chicken, a frog, and most impressive in my mind, a bunny.
