Just how iconic is the Apple iPod? Iconic enough to be featured in the hands of Greek gods. California Artist Adam Reeder created this fantastical Greek-inspired sculptures. Sculptures which prove that the iPhone is so great that even Zeus uses one. Where would Pan be without Dream Theater to back up his serenade? And where would we be if we ...

The creation of bento is just as much an art as creating a painting or a piece of jewelry. So integrating the art of bento box creation and jewelry shouldn’t be that tough, but yet, no one had done it, until now. This awesome Bento Jewelry by Carolyn Tille features realistic pieces of sushi and other related Bento foods, integrated ...

Ice sculptures are the type of thing you imagine old men doing in small Alaskan towns. But apparently there are some aspiring ice sculptors who like to add a taste of geekery to their art. This Optimus Prime ice sculpture would be great for chilling a small swimming pool full of beer. Other than that, I don’t see much use ...

That’s what this world is lacking. Blind artists. No, I’m not talking people who would think are blind because of their awful color schemes. I’m talking straight up blind people.

Designed using a group of flexible time-keepers, the Human Clock is the one timepiece ...

Being super doesn’t make you immortal. The superheroes from our childhood are starting to look a little older than we’d like to admit. Poor Superman has lowered himself into using a walker (hopefully not made of Kryptonite). Catwoman is fast asleep in her rocking recliner. The Hulk has withered into a hulking couch potato. Times they are a-changing. The elderly ...

Credit cards don’t mean much these days. For awhile they were so easy to get and use, despite your financial situation, that they have become a second currency, albeit a worthless one. Made using thousands of credit cards, freecards, discount carts and gift cards, the Credit Card Rainbow displays the varied colors of debt, in all of its majesty. Commissioned ...

A narcissists dream, the Self-Portrait Machine takes a photo of the user and transfers the picture into a drawn image of themselves. The catch is that the user is actually the one that does all the drawing, as they are physically attached to the machine. The machine itself performs a little dutch rudder action, guiding the user’s hand along the ...

Nothing better encompasses the idea of heaven, hell and purgatory better than Dante’s Divine Comedy. That’s why artist Marco Brambilia, who apparently directed Demolition Man, decided to use Dante’s masterpiece as his inspiration for an art installation in New York.
