Best Of The Rest: NASA's Global Selfie, True Detective Mixed With Family Circus, And Pharrell's "Happy" Without Instrumentals

The week in creativity is an abyss of awesomeness...

This week, we explored the hidden cosmos in our doc "Making of Dark Universe," followed projection mapping gurus URBANSCREEN as they turned in the inside of a defunct gas tank into a spectacular light cathedral, and talked to the nanotech artist who made the ["blacker-than-black," the darkest color ever](http:// http://thecreatorsproject.vice.com/blog/meet-the-artist-behind-blacker-than-black-the-darkest-color-ever). For everything else we missed, here's the best of the rest!
