Quatro anos atrás, quem passasse por um cruzamento específico em Buenos Aires veria um prédio comum de três andares — um estacionamento vazio, sem nenhum carro à vista. Hoje, a estrutura ainda está lá, mas completamente irreconhecível. Agora, o antigo estacionamento parece uma torre baixa com ares de disco voador, brotando de uma base de concreto, com uma rampa ajardinada que serpenteia suavemente para o alto. A transformação radical é fruto de um projeto do escritório de arquitetura ODA.

Four years ago, if you found yourself at one particular intersection of Buenos Aires, you would see a nondescript, three-story parking garage with no cars inside. That building still exists—but it’s completely unrecognizable. Today, that structure looks like a stubby, UFO-like tower mushrooming from a concrete pedestal with a landscaped ramp curving upward. The metamorphosis is thanks to a multiyear project by New York architecture firm ODA.

Over the past three months, in a small print shop in Toronto, a group of people has been hard at work making the impossible possible: a book that can be read only when you pour water over it. The “Dehydrating Book” is the first of its kind. It was printed with a special hydrochromic ink that is invisible to the naked eye and becomes visible only when it’s wet. It is 100% waterproof and ships in a pouch full of water. Why? To raise awareness about the global water crisis.

Ver una buena intro en una serie es como leer una carta escrita con tinta invisible. A menudo, el mensaje está ahí desde el principio, simplemente no tienes todas las herramientas para descifrarlo hasta el final. Con la segunda temporada de Severance, ese momento ha llegado. Durante los últimos dos meses, los internautas han dedicado incontables horas a destacar varias partes de los créditos iniciales de la serie.

Watching a good title sequence is like reading a letter that was written in invisible ink. More often than not, the message is there all along, you just don’t have all the tools to decipher it until the very end. With the second season of “Severance,” that moment has come. Over the past two months, the internet has spent countless hours pointing that flashlight over various parts of the show’s opening credits.
