Let me make it clear that on a physical level I’m a pacifist. However, if someone challenged me to a music fight I would be happy to have a MidiGun in my parameter adjusting arsenal! Looks like someone’s using it to play live with a band/project called Guns ‘n’ Guitars, check out their tunes, pretty great. Anyways, more MidiGun info here. [via]
Wayne Horse Tag Animation (dunno what else to call it) is pretty amazing. I’m not crazy about tagging but there tags in motion are stunning. Only lasts for a short time so enjoy it while you can.
A great bicycle chopper gallery with loads of hand crafted custom rides.
The Art of Matthew Goodsell is a nice little collection of dark, dreamy, pieces. [via]
Take a look at RetroThings post about the wonderful looking Fisher-Price PXL 2000 toy video camera. I had no idea that you could record video on audio tape. [via]
The Envelope Collective ” is an ongoing collaborative experiment in art that uses the transportation of mail as a medium.” Send the guys a piece of art on an envelope and watch the online gallery grow. Quite small at the moment but will undoubtedly be huge eventually.
Project: Air Guitar - “The Virtual Air Guitar is a new way of experiencing music. It is an instrument literally played in the air: no strings, no keys, just you, free to perform.” It literally is, go check it out. “Playing the Air Guitar is simple. You pull on a pair of orange gloves, press the start pedal, and rock on…You will see yourself on a TV screen, with your orange gloves highlighted…Now swing the right hand as if you were strumming a big chord. And that’s exactly what happens - you hear a power chord with punchy distortion. Now move your left hand along the imaginary neck and strum again - it’s a different chord. You can’t play any “wrong” chords here - they have been pre-selected for you, but it doesn’t seem limiting at all. After all, it may only be 4 chords, but that’s exactly how many you need to play Smoke on the Water.” [via]
Another bed that I think I need. The Knock-Down/Drag-out Bed is an ” innovation in sleeping comfort can be assembled with nothing more than a screwdriver and a few minutes. The quickly collapsible, and transportable, queen size bed is the latest in knock-down construction.” Very Airfix. [via]
