I’ve been watching too much children’s programming.

Have a great day!

The Magnetic Cello is a stringless instrument by California-based company Magnetovore that’s shaped like a cello and utilizes a resistive ribbon, copper coil, and a magnetic bow to create a deep electronic sound. The company gave a unit to Kentucky cellist Ben Sollee to show off what it can do.

“Neighbourhood Watch“, ou quand le street artist canadien Andrew Lamb s’amuse à détourner les panneaux de surveillance du voisinage de la ville de Toronto avec des collages des icônes des années 80 issues des films, des séries ou des dessins animés et des jeux vidéo… De Robocop à X-Files en passant par la famille Ingalls ou encore Mario et Ghosbusters, qui appellerez vous ?

Now You Know there’s an emergency Hall and Oates hotline. (Source)

After cackling for a minute, I picked up the phone to call.

Shirley: That’s a long distance call.

Me: We have unlimited long distance.

Shirley: Oh yeah, I forgot.

I dialed. THIS IS A REAL THING!  There were 8 choices but I got so excited I hit one and ended up with a Hall and Oates song that I HAD NEVER HEARD BEFORE.

My Sunday is made.

You only get a single move in One-Tap Quest, so you had better make it a good one. This game has no right to be fun, but somehow it is. My top score so far is 15,800…the best score I’ve seen is 21,400. (via @mrgan)

Con/struct is the latest body of work from Cape Town-based artist, designer, and photographer Justin Plunkett who uses his own original photography to digitally construct fictional landscapes and structures. He shares via an artist statement:

Con/Struct is an exploration into the themes of empowerment and imagination. Plunkett, using his own photography, has created new juxtaposed environments that encourage questioning and exploration: inviting the debate around how marketing- induced aspiration and perceived value can empower but can also corrupt, how it can be both perverse and create beauty. At the same time, at the core of his work, he honours and applauds ingenuity and the creative spirit.

The new works were recently on view at the Cabinet, and you can see more on his website. (via Designboom)

Ryosuke Ohtake.

Ryosuke Ohtake normally carves intrinsically detailed wildlife but recently he set about creating a “jizai okimono" -  which is the name for a small Japanese carving culture wherein the carvers create an animal with moving parts - of a Lobster.  Check below for the video of the sculpture in action and to see more of Ryosuke’s work:
