Cracking the Code of Cicada

In 2012, a secretive group calling itself 3301 began recruiting for "highly intelligent individuals" online. Candidates had to prove their skills in codebreaking, cryptography and computer programming by solving a complex puzzle dubbed Cicada. What was the purpose of the puzzle? No one knows, but many set out to solve one of the internet's greatest mysteries. Binge the whole series:

Néle Azevedo Creates Monuments That Melt Away

Some artwork is designed to last for eternity. Néle Azevedo's isn't. She is known for sculpting human figures from ice and installing them in public spaces for all to see. Her most recent installation was in collaboration with Coors Light, in her home town of São Paulo. It's a stunning sight—hundreds of human-shaped icicles seemingly suspended for a moment in time, lights reflecting from them as they slowly melt away.
