Trashy Tunes and Little Plastic Men

Monday, September 8th, 2008

Loving this decorative bowl from Dominic Wilcox.

And this is pretty sweet, I can’t imagine really wanting to know every time somebody threw something away in our house. Hopefully version two will play a pleasant little ditty that might please Oscar the Grouch.

Showtime hit a home run with their latest campaign for the serial killer drama Dexter. My favorite has to be the New Yorker.

Camouflage 16 & Camouflage 17

Painstaking photographs by Beijin artist Liu Bolin, from his series “Camouflage” which is a pretty damn accurate description. Bolin hand paints his subjects to blend into the background.

Mini-Movement Wooden Replicas

Wednesday, August 27th, 2008

I’m finding lots of wooden replicas of common items. It’s a reversal of sorts where normally you’d be making a plastic or other cheap material and creating a replica of a high-end product, but here you have a higher end material used to replicate low-end product.

You could outfit a redneck’s patio in serious style with this little movement.
