   IDEA GENERATION: RHUIGI VILLASEÑOR
   
   After growing up as a global citizen, Rhuigi Villaseñor settled in Southern
   California and found his twin passions: clothing and hustle. Kendrick Lamar
   wore a t-shirt design of his, the bandana tee, on stage at the BET Awards and
   everything changed. RHUDE would be born shortly thereafter, and Rhuigi would
   go on to create a unique language at the intersection of Americana, Luxury
   and Streetwear that would drive the brand to the pinnacle of cool and also to
   commercial success. But of course not without his fair share of mistakes and
   missteps.

CHINA SAYS IT MAY HAVE DETECTED SIGNALS FROM ALIEN CIVILIZATIONS

China said its giant Sky Eye telescope may have picked up signs of alien
civilizations, according to a report by the state-backed Science and Technology
Daily, which then appeared to have deleted the report and posts about the
discovery.

The narrow-band electromagnetic signals detected by Sky Eye -- the world’s
largest radio telescope -- differ from previous ones captured and the team is
further investigating them, the report said, citing Zhang Tonjie, chief
scientist of an extraterrestrial civilization search team co-founded by Beijing
Normal University, the National Astronomical Observatory of the Chinese Academy
of Sciences and the University of California, Berkeley. 




It isn’t clear why the report was apparently removed from the website of the
Science and Technology Daily, the official newspaper of China’s science and
technology ministry, though the news had already started trending on social
network Weibo and was picked up by other media outlets, including state-run
ones.



In September 2020, Sky Eye, which is located in China’s southwestern Guizhou
province and has a diameter of 500 meters (1,640 feet), officially launched a
search for extraterrestrial life. The team detected two sets of suspicious
signals in 2020 while processing data collected in 2019, and found another
suspicious signal in 2022 from observation data of exoplanet targets, Zhang
said, according to the report.



China’s Sky Eye is extremely sensitive in the low-frequency radio band and plays
a critical role in the search for alien civilizations, Zhang is reported to have
said. 




The suspicious signals could, however, also be some kind of radio interference
and requires further investigation, he added.

Calls by Bloomberg News to the Science and Technology Daily weren’t answered.
