Cat Toy Brilliance!


Good for some laughs. And, it should be noted that L.A.'s Spellwell stuffs these dolls with organic catnip—now getting high to visions of carcasses can be a green activity!

Introducing: the Apple Jacket

For someone who likes to carry fruit around in her purse, these puppies actually make sense to me. And yes I'll admit it, they're cute, too.
Something for pear-eaters, too. . .

Creativity + Obsessive Behavior = Peanut Butter + Chocolate. Tasty.

For decades, Swiss born Paris-resident Felice Varini has made magic with paint, applying it to environments around the world. At first glance, the marks look random; but from a single specific vantage point, Varini freezes the place into a 2-dimensional piece. Call ‘em puzzles, call ‘em poetry, some people even call them math—I think these pieces work from any standpoint.




















P.S. Wondering what kind of crazy science Varini invokes to make these? I believe he uses a projector. Anyone? Anyone?
