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.

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...

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..

link/09.25.06/Eyebeam

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...)

link/08.10.06/B23

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.

link/08.02.06/CoolHunting

Just a large collection of strange statues from all around the world, some profoundly interesting others downright disturbing, all worth at least a look.

link/08.01.06/BeTuMan

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!

link/07.28.06/B23

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...

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

link/07.14.06/B23

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

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.

link/06.20.06/HaHa.Nu

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.

link/06.19.06/HaHa.Nu

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.

link/06.19.06/B23

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.

link/06.13.06/DesignBoom

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.

Artist Spotlight. Jason Shogreen (or Sho Green) has a wide variety of works, textile, paint, illustration, all wonderful.

link/03.29.06/B23

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.
