Zoo Art Fair

oo Art Fair is like a younger sibling to the Frieze Art Fair - Zoo a bit of a cheeky adolescent and Frieze definitely past puberty and well developed. If you half close your eyes, the fairs can look similar but Zoo, being younger, offers more surprises which - if you can handle the stroppy crap as well as the good stuff, such as Keith Holbrook's Carrying a Giantess, above - can make Zoo the more vital, risk-taking experience. Luckily we've got both fairs, and shouldn’t complain. Bright and sparky, Zoo offers the best of the smaller galleries, both here and abroad - a highly convenient, fun overview of what’s coming next. Recommended.

Zoo Hospital (Wii)

Zoo Hospital for the Wii is a cuddly medical-themed puzzler in the style of Atlus' popular Trauma Center franchise. Unfortunately, it has none of the puzzle variation, intensity, or replayability of the Trauma Center games and presents very little challenge or depth. Its puzzles never increase in difficulty, and you're often forced to repeatedly endure the same operation type, compounding your sense of boredom. The sad reality of Zoo Hospital is that it boasts little more than cute animals.

The Particle Zoo: Collecting Your Own Subatomic Particles

This is a must for any particle physics enthusiast: collect your own particles in the form of a soft, cuddly plushie. From the theoretical Higgs boson to the well known electron, all the quantum particles from the Standard Model can be browsed and chosen for your personal collection. The Particle Zoo is the brain child of Los Angeles-based Julie Peasley, who is making it her duty to give our beloved particles a face and personality. For example: due to his popularity, the Higgs particle is a "bit of a snob" and therefore has a huge smile on his face (after all, wouldn't you be really smug if everyone wanted to interview you?); the muon (or heavy electron) "lives fast and dies young"; or, hilariously, the unobserved graviton "has big legs for jumping branes.
