Ok,
this is like one of those scenes from a cartoon. Man won't sell
house, real estate guy builds around him... |
|
|
 |
this
is a little weird, but I do actuallyu have this problem, made
it worse with the water saving low flow nozzle recenly too...but
this still seems kinda hoaky... |
|
|
 |
phew,
been away awhile...and I return today with one of my favorite
subjects; cool ass cars! this one is a joint venture between
Hyundai and GM...it's mostly made of recycled pop bottles. Shame
no car company out there has the balls to try and sell something
like this, or designed like this for that matter, that window
rocks! |
|
|
 |
Ok,
I'll admit it, I'm one of those geeks that watches foreign language
tv, just to see images from other lands, perhaps my eyes are
hungry for travel, a state I hope to rectify soon...but for
now, I examine door frames, and sign posts this way....this
is a link to early color photography from Russia. |

Who
doesn't love skulls, there not just for halloween anymore...
this site is to all things skull, and I mean all things, can't
think of another skull related "thing" I could think
to look for here. |

Everything
I can find says that although this looks like a concept car,
it's actually production, and due to hit the streets this year...and
it's electric! the styling is ...well, subjective...I like it,
I like that it looks viable in today's market, I wouldn't drive
it tho, well I'd drive it...but I wouldn't buy it...but...it's
cool... |
|

 |
A
very beautiful little film, part paper mache, part computer
graphics...all great. |
|
|
 |
I
would love to spend hours crawling around in this house, looking
behind things, under things...it's facinating...I fear one day
this may be my house...really impressive use of a java 360 degree
view too. |
|
|
 |
OK,

how much you enjoyed those I know you'll love stuffed microbes. |

am I. |

The
Free WiFi router has arrived, hooked it up yesturday, so far
everrything is working fine, really easy to hook up, surprisingly
you can just hook it right into any wifi router you might
already have, and set up... well there really isn't any, some
stuff to do with yr address and personalization, but nothing
really. stay tooned for further updates. |
|
|
 |
OK,
these are just f-ing cooool. OMG I want a whole room of these,
and I want them all over my apartment, and I want some waterproof
ones for outside. and... well, you get my point, how cool
are these? Damn cool I say. |
|

How

all that great, but come on how could "I" not post
about this?

OK,
it might be a little creepy, but it's damn cool and really
well produced, takes forever to load, but sooo worth it, trust
me... |
|
|
 |
Forget
about glowstix baby, I want me some GLOWFUR, or GLOWLEGWARMERS,
oh oh, a GLOWBIKINI...yeah, now that's what I'm talkin' bout...
|

 |
What
better place to play twister than in bed? there is an element
of danger to it, should yr knotted bodies roll off the bed...but
well, a little risk just adds to it and you know it... |
|
|
 |
I
know of at least one bedlamite that is really fond of paper
craft, but I'm pretty sure many others will say the same thing
I did when I found this, WOW! |
|
|
 |
OK,
this is just cool, so far I have no details beyond this video,
but i'm looking, the original poster says it's scary, but
I think it's just cool, very cool..I want one! |
|
|
 |
I've
always been a fan of stop motion, here's a link to a set of
relativly cool homes spun stop motion.. |
|
|
 |
OK,
next time I'm in Brussles just try to keep me outta here,
for kids, HA! they gotta at least let me in to look around... |
|
|
 |
Already
a big fan of magazines I'm always interested in a new one,
Good Magazine had already peeked my interest as a new art/politic/environment
rag, but then when you discover that yr 20$ subscription rate
can be 100% directed to one of 12 different chairties...well
geesh, what's not to like. |
|
|
 |
Bedlam's
favorite artist Obi Kaufmann has updated his website, check
it! that's an order Bedlamites... |
|
|
 |
I;ve
featured PlasticHeart before I'm sure, but while checking
out the newest shipment (not to be missed for fans of HazMa
Pos and Kuggs) I discovered these DIY toys, some even come
with crayons so you can decorate them yrself, how cool is
that? |
|
|
 |
The
Brooklyn Botanic Gardens got an Amorphophallus Titanum to
bloom after ten years of cultivating, most know it as the
corpse plant. Cool Hunting has a really great little video
complete with a stop motion of the blooms amazing growth,
six inches a day! |

It's
always agonizing to find things like this, and then find that
they aren't real (yet?) I love the concept so felt it worth
sharing, it's a beautiful design, and manybe with enough interest
it might someday leave the pixel void... |

Artist
Spotlight. Brian McGuffey, one of two owners of SquareRoom,
an art, interiors, jewelry, and necessities store here in
Seattle. Brian and his partner Leif both create wonderful
original art for the store as well as highlight other artists,
if yr in the Seattle area, don't miss this store, or Brian's
paintings ("sand in my toes" is mine,
don't you dare buy it, unless you really want it, then it's
ok...) |

 |
Hey
this is pretty cool. A website you can text yr camera phone
images to. it was super easy to set up and they offer three
levels; free, basic, and premium, each one giving you more
storage. |
|
|
 |
Kinda
late in the summer for pool/lake toys, but hey it's cool enough,
a motorized floaty, how great is that? and at only 130$ geesh,
if I was still 10 mins from the lake I would sooooo buy this. |
|
|
 |
Just
a large collection of strange statues from all around the
world, some profoundly interesting others downright disturbing,
all worth at least a look. |
|
|
 |
oh
oh oh, I love this stuff! from what I can tell it's one design
firm and their collection of wonderful products, and the prices
are great...the wall art, and the Mr P. don't miss either
of them. |
|
|
 |
Pretty
sure I've posted stuff like this before, tho previously I
believe it was more function/goal oriented, as homeless housing.
Tho there are some ideas here that are very well suited to
the homeless housing situation. Not very homeless friendly
but cool enough to mention is the AtoZ living unit, don't
miss it. |

Ok,
I'm a complete trance addict so you might not enjoy this as
much as I do, but I found this streaming video channel from
Italy that rocks, excellent stream quality, killer artist
choices, no yakkin, varies from single video's to recorded
live shows, the first thing I saw on here was two hours of
Armin. Trance heads gotta check this out! |
|
|
 |
Some
ppl have asked about the back wall of the new coffee bar,
it's reclaimed billboard material. It's really great stuff,
very heavy re-inforced vinyl. You can buy 4ft x 4ft pieces
of yr very own and make all kinds of things, they send you
project sheets and everything!
check
out some really great stuff made from reclaimed billboard
material
 |

 |
This
is just cool, made cooler that the makers decide who get's
one and who doesn't, not sure yet what the criteria is for
being accepted, but you know I'm gonna try...I want many actually,
I'd love to slip them into bushes and tell stories with them
as ppl walk down a block, they hear another line from the
story... heh? pretty good huh?
anyway, go check em out... |

 |
Ahhhhhhh.
An all electric car, that is not just an electric car, but
a super slick ultra beautiful performance machine. Just like
I like 'em And oh what a fantastic name it has, it just screams
electric extremist. |
|
|
 |
You
have those old horse rings in yr town? Look on the sidewalks
around yr house, near to the curb. If you do have them you
should check this out, participate even... |
|
|
 |
Is
that a cactus in yr pocket? Oh shut up, you know you want
one...it's cute, you could name it, talk to it, introduce
it to yr parents... |
|
|
 |
Here's
something fun you know you want to do, that is unless yr afraid
of heights. Care to eat 164 ft. above the ground? A Dutch
company will suspend you and up to 21 of yr friends from a
crane, the catch is yr table and the chairs yr all sitting
in will be 164 ft above ground. They even move the crane to
a site of yr choosing |
|

 |
Lot
of talk on the news about "Smart comes to America"
which IS a good thing and all, but if you do a search for
places to just go look at the oh so cute convertible, or the
too too sexy roadster...yr outta luck, and a call to a local
Mercedes Dealer got a "Really? I hadn't heard that..."
hmph |
|
|
 |
Now
go make something, like Throwies you wear...go..go...now...
|
|
|
 |
Matt
has a new Video up!!!! And guess where he has taken up residence?
come on guess? did you guess Seattle? of course you did, now
go watch the new video, and watch for the JellyFish lake... |
|
|
 |
Probably
not a big deal to anyone outside the northwest, but it's a
big deal to me. Two of our Orcas' Pods came back with calves.
Bringing our population to a still pitiful 89, but it's fantastic
anyway. |
|
|
 |
Ok,
last architecture page I swear, but I swear all the time so...
This one is so worth it, click houses and plans and find the
OrchidHouse... |
|
|
 |
wow!
I sat here transfixed for almost and hour before I realized
it. So simple, so fun. |
|
|
 |
I'm
pretty sure I posted a project similar to this but by a different
artist. I still really like the idea of doing this somewhere,
here it is as municipal art in subway stations. |
|
|
 |
keeping
in the architectural vein, I spotted a houseboat by this guy
and freaked, tho that boat isn't presnt on his page his page
is quite interesting, picture Wright's work on a future blue
Mars. |
|
|
 |
What
better way to get back to updating than to highlight one of
the all time greatest architects. I've long dreamed of building
an unbuilt Wright design (there are 1000's btw) here's a quick
story with pictures of a truly beautiful example of just that. |
|
|
 |
Busy
with the new CoffeeBar, but here's something interesting I
couldn't let slip by. Picture a whole wall made this way,
or a room divider, or even as window covering. |
|
|
 |
What's
better than a pair of Beautiful slippers, well, nothing. |
|
|
 |
Oh
Oh Obvio! tribrid micro car, runs on electric, ethonol and
gasoline, and you can choose how to mix the gas and ethonol
yrself (to suit yr power needs?)Not a fan of the color, but
it's so tiny maybe it's a safety thing, cuz you know a hummer
wouldn't even know it squished it.
Don't
miss the flip flop peddels. |

This
is a 12 minute collection of rube goldberg inventions from
a Japanese TV show. |
|
|
 |
Street
art with legs, just a super cute film about sharing space
with street art inspired by the art of Jeff Soto |
|
|
 |
You
always knew this was coming...nuerons growing on, and
communicating with computer chips. |
|
|
 |
Artist Spotlight. Jason Shogreen (or Sho Green) has a wide
variety of works, textile, paint, illustration, all wonderful. |
|
|
 |
Might be disturbing to some. The strange combination of such
an innocent "grandma" medium and the subject matter,
well let's just say I'm a big fan of irony, no matter how
obvious. |
