Iocose have catapulted four real sunflower seeds into Ai Weiwei’s exhibit at the Tate Modern. The group of artists now claim that the original 100 million porcelain seeds have become part of their new artwork, titled Sunflower Seeds on Sunflower Seeds. Here’s a video of the event taking place. When I heard that the exhibit had been closed off from visitors feet I no longer had any interesting seeing the exhibit but now… I think I would again! [via]

Eat Your Heart Out vs The London Dungeon
Eat Your Heart Out posse (NSFW) are celebrating Valentines Day this year at The London Dungeons with some heart cakes heart ventricle cake to eat among the other festivities! [via]
Archetypes
Tres Tipos Gráficos created a small series of poster,s called Archetypes, of overlapping letters. Each poster features a different font. The effect is very nice. [via]
Up (Premake)
I must have watched Up 50 times (with my little girl of course). I never get bored of it but have wondered if it could have been even better if it had been a live action film given how convincing it could have been with current CGI technology. I never imagined it would look like this great 1965 “premake” though. [via]
Smash & Rick Get Messy
Smash & Risk get seriously mess with their latest wall together. Armed with aerosol cans and knives to stab into them, they spar the wall chaotically before finishing off with some perfect precision. [via]
Jonathan Andrew’s WWII Bunker Photography
Jonathan Andrew has taken some really nice photos of WWII bunkers. Great lighting. [via]
How to Sell a Banksy
How to sell a Banksy looks like it should be an interesting film. Not just because it’s just about Banksy though; the whole idea is intriguing to me. In the meantime, watch Untitled (trailer here). [via]
Banksy’s work now reportedly changes hands for millions. But he puts up his street art for free. Have you ever wondered what would happen if you got your hands on one of these? Does it mean you’ve found a winning lottery ticket or just scraped some worthless crap off a wall? Going up against the Art Establishment, Critics, Auction Houses, Gallery Owners and Authentication Boards in a quest for the elusive meal ticket, two filmmakers unwittingly gatecrash the murky and protective world of Banksy.“How to Sell a Banksy” raises questions of ownership, authentication and the true value of art itself. Through all the chaos and incompetence comes a modern-day, true-story, crime-theft, comedy-caper.
Plucking Pennies by Buffdiss
Plucking Pennies is a great piece of art created with tape. It does what good art on the street should do in my opinion. [via]
The Coenfographic
The Coenfographic. If you like the Coen Brothers’ movies then you should probably get clicking. [via]
Little People – The Last Resort
The Last Resort is the latest in the Little People series of works by Slinkachu. He managed to catch a little slice of nice weather for the photo too… or maybe it wasn’t taken in the UK!
