  • Anatomical Theatre of Oikumenes

    April 17th, 2011

    I don’t have any info about this project, except for the Source. The artist seems to have the same name as an athlete (who dominated my web searches).

    Lovely work on this anatomical art book.

    A few more here.

  • Perchance to Dream?

    April 16th, 2011

    Need some feedback, please!

    I’ve been toying with the idea of very briefly documenting a bit of the phantasmagoria that takes place in my head as I dream. A whole new, often entertaining, world opens up…occasionally worth sharing.

    I thought of including dream posts here, with some corresponding art from my archives or image odysseys. But there are other ways I could go about it.

    Please select your favorite option (keep in mind, posts will NOT be lengthy plot lines or analytical descriptions to read…just frozen surreal moments captured in a sentence or two):

  • Sam Jinks

    April 15th, 2011

    Sam Jinks creates sculptures that possess a truly disquieting realism.

    His ability to recreate the human form (non-idealized and unflattering) is uncanny.

    And one mollusk sculpture…

    See more (some NSFW) here.

  • Malgorzata Jasinska

    April 14th, 2011

    There is a surprising amount of lovely, darkly surreal work on deviantart.com. Empatia has a nice little gallery of digital and hand drawn work.

    See more here.

  • Desktop Goodies 4/12

    April 13th, 2011

    I know I just did a desktop goodies post, but I didn’t even post a fraction of the images cluttering up my screen. Every few days I move them to the traveling museum that is my external hard drive, but they pile up fast for an info junkie like me.

    Stunned Cactus Head Jesus invites you in…

    Taxidermy just looks so classy when it’s well done.

    This gives me an idea: misanthrope motivational posters!

    No idea:

    Yes, I generally keep five or six of these in my room at any given time.

    This sculpture is bloody brilliant:

    I’ll take this job!

    What a valiant image!

    Remember this, fellow 80’s children?

    *Sigh* Yes, I’ve been hearing this from relatives since I was about 18:

    And I’ll end with a photo I find breathtaking…

  • 1000 Tentacles

    April 12th, 2011

    Malaysian design studio 1000 Tentacles features projects including commercial illustration, prints, comics, character design, toy sculpture and 3D arts.

    The portfolio is extensive, packed with awesome scenes and creative creatures.

    So much to see on 1000 Tentacles!

  • Le Cochon Danseur

    April 10th, 2011

    When I first saw this pig on the stage, I did not think he’d have such sweet moves in store.

  • Desktop Goodies 4/19

    April 9th, 2011


    (But in my case, 2011 has certainly tried so far!)

    Brings new meaning to the phrase “my better half:”

    …and new meaning to “a meeting of minds:”

    I should definitely do this with my hip-length hair. Now, how to craft a faucet accessory…

    Mystery solved!

    Best typo of the month…and top of my destination list if it’s true. Where do heavy meals line the urban roadsides? Bring me to the land of meatloaf trees and pizza flowers!

    I’d also like to go to this coffee shop:

    Best cake inscription of the month:

    Happy birthday! “Rats off to you!” (You know this sickly looking thing has red velvet cake innards)

    Or for another unique birthday idea (not recommended):

    I want one of these.

    I find this photo incredibly haunting.

    I love this image.

  • X-Ray Photography

    April 8th, 2011

    Today I bring you a double feature of X-ray photography.

    First, Leslie Wright:

    See more sea life, plants, creatures and bits of technology on her site.

    Next, the work of Nick Veasey:

    Man, machine, flora, fauna, toys and miscellanious objects…

    See more on his site.

  • Marvin’s Marvelous Mechanical Museum

    April 7th, 2011

    If I’m ever in Michigan, Marvin’s Marvelous Mechanical Museum will be on my itinerary.

    “Marvin’s Marvelous Mechanical Museum is known from coast to coast, like butter and toast. From headlines to bedlines, from school rooms to pool rooms, this place is like no other that can be found in the contiguous United States and other environs of the free world.”

    The museum contains items of magic, neon, antiques, posters, airplanes, robots, animation, and all sorts of odd and unusual coin operated games. The coin operated games are the main attraction, and range from the oldest gypsy fortune telling machine of the early 1900’s, to the lastest video games. All the games are operational.

    There is so much fun stuff to explore on the website alone…I can only imagine how interesting it would be in person!
