Transparent Sea Creature Collection

Posted in creatures, photography, sea with tags , , on May 8, 2013 by shewalkssoftly

Oh ocean…you deep, exotic world of mystery…will you ever cease to amaze?

I wish there was more info listed about these findings. They seem clearly related to other known creatures, but who can ever get enough sea life variety?

This one looks like my intestines dressed up for a party (no really…I’ve seen my intestines on film twice in the past week).

Fellow children of the 80′s will agree that this one is “totally tubular.”

Art Donovan Lamps

Posted in craft, glass, home, lighting, sculpture, steampunk with tags , , , , , on May 7, 2013 by shewalkssoftly

Donovan Design has come out with a series of wonderful steampunk lamps. As many of you know, I am loathe to use the term steampunk, but will always give credit where credit is due in terms of fine craftsmanship.

I can’t help liking certain aesthetics of the subculture I can’t entirely get behind. Story of my life, as a kaleidoscope of selected subcultural pieces!

I wouldn’t mind a few of these beauties gracing my home in various places (“wouldn’t mind” is quite an extreme understatement).

Chuck E. Bloom’s strange chimeric habitats and windows into other worlds have me thoroughly intrigued…

Organic, surrealistic…perhaps they are just creative dwellings planted in otherwise barren land. Perhaps they are portals.

Aaron J. Groen

Posted in decay, photography, space with tags , , on May 5, 2013 by shewalkssoftly

Take me to these places…I want to stargaze and be alone with my thoughts…

Aaron J Groen juxtaposes the gorgeous vastness of the universe with transient human creations, subject to decay in what amounts to less than the proverbial blink of the universal eye.

ag03

The things we construct in this lifetime are of little grand consequence, yet they are everything to us. How can anyone not be awestruck when the makings of human life are set against a backdrop of the cosmos?

From Major to Minor

Posted in music with tags on May 4, 2013 by shewalkssoftly

I have a bit of problem. I only feel “at home” with minor key songs. Thus, I feel most…if not all…major key tunes should be given THIS treatment.

Minor

If you know of any other projects like this (or do it yourself and take requests), please share!

Mysterious Stranger

Posted in absurd, animation, candy coated nightmares, surreal, video with tags , , , , on May 2, 2013 by shewalkssoftly

This rather horrifying chunk of stop motion surrealism was hidden in the recesses of my mind until my wonderful friend Casey reminded me of it (thanks, Casey!)…
