What if electronic devices got charged and recharged from radio waves travelling through the air?
I have no idea if this actually works, but it would be very cool if it did…

Kazakhstan is planning to build a tent large enough to cover a small indoor city.

As the BBC reports,
Kazakhstan has unveiled a new architectural project for its capital Astana – a giant transparent tent that will contain an indoor city. The 150m-high (500ft) dome, designed by UK architect Norman Foster, will be built in just over a year. The tent is being made from special material that absorbs sunlight to create the effect of summer inside.
This reminds me of the famous poem “Khubla Khan, or, a Vision in a Dream. A Fragment.” by Samuel Taylor Coleridge, which begins,
In Xanadu did Kubla Khan
A stately pleasure-dome decree :
Where Alph, the sacred river, ran
Through caverns measureless to man
Down to a sunless sea.

You can throw this tent in the air, and by the time it lands it has set itself up. What a great design: http://decathlontent.com/
