Spotted in the town of Inakadate in Aomori, claimed to be the works of the local farmers there. I have seen them in the news a couple of weeks back and no they are not photoshop-ed.

They might just inspire the crop-circle brotherhood to be a little bit more creative in their next Roswell-exhibition. See more here.

Achoo!

Not too long ago I posted about Chatuchak’s junkie jewels, here’s a more tasteful, statuesque tissue holder for that art fart in you.

And I must say it’s really one of those ‘stuff that you don’t need but really really want‘.

CarveCravings

Talking about carving out your cravings, in all its senses!

A couple down at Craftster.org has taken it upon themselves to cut down the portions of those happy meals, literally!, into a tray-size of a Splenda (our equivalent of an Equal sachet).

Time taken to grill that patty: a FEW seconds (ikidyounot!)
Oh ‘Mini-Oreos’ is so yesterday.

Optical Illusion Vase

Remember those optical illusion masterpieces your grade six art teacher used to bring into class, in the hope to intrigue and inspire that dying artist in you?

My first love was Salvador Dali’s. Unfortunately for me, the balance sheet catches up with life.

But for some people, a spark of genius is all it takes to overturn those yawning days, to carve out a living (no pun intended) despite it all. Tom Beshara is one of them.

The “Pirolette”, is a 3D “visage” that follows the outlined silhouettes of your two profiles. This is cool shit because now you can have your very own profile immortalize as YOUR OWN masterpiece!

Arh…
