Ordinary sleeping bags are sooooo last century. Why go for the normal, safe, boring bag of down or poly fiber fill when you can get a bag that can have you playing "Landshark!" gags half the night. The Chumbuddy sleeping bags not only come as sharks, but also whales and alligators. The best part? They are primarily for adults. Only the shark also comes in a child size.
Combining art and nature is nothing new, but having live animals as participants in exhibitions is a bit more unusual. Luckily, these hermit crabs don’t move too fast, particularly since they have entire artistic cityscapes on their backs, fashioned meticulously out of plastic by Japanese artist Aki Inomata.
When was the last time you thought about crayons? More specifically, when was the last time you bought over 100,000 of them in order to make a sculpture? The answer is probably never, unless you’re Herb Williams. He is the Cezanne of Crayon, the Calder of Crayola, and his playful works often hold many more shades of meaning and depth than meet the eye.
If you’re a fan of the Saint’s Row series – I mean REALLY a fan. You need to have an unhealthy obsession bordering on Tom Cruise levels of insanity – publisher Deep Silver’s just released something you’ll find to be quite the treat: a super-special copy of Saint’s Row IV. It’s called the Super Dangerous Wad Wad Edition…and it’ll run you a cool mil.
To be fair, it does come with some pretty awesome stuff.
Imagine an artist that can create installations that look just like Picasso, Warhol, Rembrandt, Monet, and DaVinci…more impressively, she can do it without every picking up a paint brush. Devorah Sperber creates massive mosaics using thousands of spools of thread, but the image is upside down and backwards. She relies on reflections, the physics of sight, and subjective reality to give her re-mastered masterworks an unusual, unforgettable twist.
If your entire set of matching glassware disappears during canning season you might be a redneck. If you think that boxed wine is the height of class you might be a redneck. If your best friend is likely to say "Ah duz," during his or her wedding, then he/she is undoubtedly a redneck. It is for just these people that the Redneck Wine Glass was designed. These glasses use the classic Mason jar design mounted on a candlestick-style stem.
For those who don’t know, Schrödinger’s Cat is a thought experiment designed by Austrian scientisst Erwin Schrödinger in 1935 to demonstrate what he considered a flaw in the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics. The experiment has been turned into the latest oracle gadget, and the geekiest and nerdiest one since the Magic 8 Ball — Schrödinger’s Cat Executive Decision Maker.
Photos of a cute kid wearing a handmade watermelon cap & shorts combo have gone viral in China. Be afraid, Fruit Of The Loom, be VERY afraid!
The art world is full of surprising and unexpected styles, but there have always been some clear separations. Paintings, drawing, and photographs stay on the two-dimensional canvas, while sculptures exist in 3-D. Those boundaries are difficult to cross, unless you are Ramon Bruin, a Dutch artist who excels at blurring the lines between reality, art, and the physical boundaries of a 2-D world.
Hello Kitty is the iconic Japanese pussy cat that has graced everything from kids’ toys and clothes to a jet. It is an image that is recognized by most people around the world — with varying levels of appreciation. The biggest fans tend to be little girls. For adult males the perception is a bit different — especially if they are among the disgraced members of the Thai police force.
