Doing a little troubleshooting here. Pay it no mind.

Radioactive Control by luzinterruptus.

This must have been SUCH an amazing, eerie installation.





The installation Radioactive Control was created for the Dockville Festival in de Hamburg which tried to demonstrate, in a humorous tone, the paranoia that we are suffering from since the escape of radioactive material in Japan, has brought into question the safety systems at the nuclear power plants.

With our mysterious army of 100 illuminated radioactive figures, which advanced threateningly on the natural environment of the festival, we wanted to invite reflection regarding the use and abuse of nuclear energy, cheap in economic terms, but which can cause grave secondary effects for the environment and health, forever irreversible.

Big yellow Rabbit.

constructed out of locally-manufactured shingles and a wooden armature, the temporary sculpture depicts a giant plush rabbit that has been seemingly dropped into the center of the swedish plaza.the large-scale intervention rests against the engelbrekt monument, the original pivot point of the open site. observers are encouraged to experience the public space within the new context of the rabbit as well as when the presence of the sculpture is gone.

as with his previous work, [florentijn] hofman's sculpture involved the locals with more than 25 volunteers and craftsman coming together to construct the rabbit.

"I came here to drink milk and kick ass."

Are you an Anglophile couch potato? You need to check out The Modern Stylographer store. Now. Go, go.


Part of a new series of The IT Crowd inspired quote prints, the quote "I Came Here to Drink Milk and Kick Ass." "And I've just Finished my Milk." is a great illustration of the irreverent humor that comes out of the UK these days. This grungy, textured illustration is a great piece of typographic art and a great conversation piece that will have you laughing at the ridiculous of this BBC show.

DIY fridge.

This amazes me. Who would think to take a refrigerator to an auto painter?? SO smart.


This refrigerator, formerly brown, was purchased for $30 at a garage sale. The owner took it to an automotive painter and had it turned shell pink.
