...this ragbag into something hallucinatory. This was the art that teenagers peeled off hoardings to hang in their bedrooms. In New Aleph Sanctury (1963-71) by German-born Mati Klarwein, painted panels crawling with multicolored figures form a small room that glows like stained glass. Richard Lindner, a genuine product of '20s Germany whose style influenced the animated Beatles film Yellow Submarine (1968), is represented by one oil painting of a striped-jerseyed rock star with a guitar against a sunburst (Rock-Rock, 1966-67). Psychedelia was supposed to induce a trance-like state with or without drugs...
...with experience of plastics engineering, dreamt up Remarkable in his London bedsit in 1996. After devising a technique for turning used plastic cups into pencils, Miller followed up with ways to turn polystyrene packaging into rulers, tires into pencil cases and mousepads, and printers into pens, creating bright new products emblazoned with declarations such as "I used to be a car tire" or "We used to be computer printers." Remarkable has won awards from independent environmental group the Green Organization as well as the British government, Loh and Behold Avant-garde murals and imaginative furnishings characterise a new Singapore hotel...

...works by vaporizing oil and water, breaking them down and capturing the hydrogen locked inside. Built on a large scale, such a hydrogen generator could provide fill-ups of hydrogen fuel for thousands of cars. The technology would also help solve a potential pollution problem by allowing a by-product of the process, carbon dioxide, to be captured and filtered at a single point. Imagine if all the pollutants could be stripped out of gasoline before you filled up your tank. Known scientifically as "unmixed steam reforming," the process used by Dupont was invented...
...underground tank and some rubber tubing. Waste--from the pigpen, the toilet and the odd kitchen scrap--ferments in the underground tank, heating the greenhouse and producing a steady stream of methane to power stoves and lamps. The greenhouse helps keep the tank warm in winter, and the by-product of the tank's digestion makes good fertilizer. The whole setup costs $180. TNC, which installed more than 1,700 digesters in Yunnan last year, often donates the units to village schools, harnessing the energy of children first and using it to fire up their parents...
