In honor of MLK

Pete Fecteau spent 40 hours configuring a monumental mosaic of Martin Luther King Jr. made entirely out of
Rubik's Cubes called Dream Big. With a computer generated draft as his blueprint, the determined creator used
4,242 Rubik's Cubes to construct the 18' 6" x 9' 8" piece that, once completed, weighed about half a ton.

Just something a little different...

I can see how he got the idea to use the cube squares as pixels. Clever!

Deepest respect and gratitude to MLK :bow:
I explained to my kid the stark differences between MLK and Obama.

I didn't see - did his former bible conflagrate at the inauguration?
