Banksy, perhaps the most influential and acclaimed street artist of all-time, has officially made it to the mainstream. Solely responsible for making graffiti a respected art form, the anonymous Banksy directed the iconic opening theme and couch gag for The Simpsons. And it’s a wonder that 20th Century Fox approved it for broadcast. Featuring Banksy’s trademark dark humor and social ...

“The Persistance of Memory” is probably the most iconic surrealistic painting of all time, instantly recognizable as the product of the the equally recognizable Salvador Dali. Flickr user Zeitan created this awesome ode to modern culture with the molding of The Simpsons into Dali’s famous pocket watch melting canvas. More than 20 years since The Simpsons first entered the limelight ...

There have been many attempts at untooning characters from The Simpsons, most of them are just exceedingly creepy and all-together unrealistic, but Martin Beyer crafted this portrait of �a Mr. Burns bust, which seems to capture a happy medium between realism and the�maniacal�eccentrics of the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant’s own�Montgomery�Burns. The full-fingered hand gesture, the evil grin, the jutting jaw, ...

Two Simpsons posts in one day? Insanity! Pure insanity! Them Gearfuse boys must be Simpsons crazy. We are indeed. There wasn’t much we could do after we saw this Simpsons nail art. What choice did we have other than to post it up? So, yeah, if The Simpsons are your mortal enemy, we’re sorry, but you’ll still have to deal ...

Other than their skin, hair and dress, everything seems to be in typical Simpsons condition. Santa’s Little Helper? Check. Couch? Check. Afro pick? AFRO PICK?! NOOOOOO! Link

Canstruction is an awesome annual international design competition in which designers create their own pieces of pop art using nothing but canned food. With each piece taking 8-12 weeks to complete, thousands of cans are used during the competition. They are all later donated to food banks. Ok, great, so the homeless evidently love it, but what about us? Just ...

We love clocks. Homer Simpson loves Duff Beer. Clearly, this is a match made in Heaven Springfield. Hang up this relatively cheap ($21) Simpsons wall clock and watch as Homer’s eyes follow the bottle of Duff beer floating on the end of the second hand. I’m sure the novelty won’t wear off anytime soon, but always remember: Private Eyes. They’re ...

Last night’s episode of The Simpsons featured a rather funny parody on Apple. The company, Mapple, produces Mypods, Myphones and Mycube. Lisa gets a Mypod and gets addicted to downloading. I won’t spoil the rest, just take five and check out the video. Yes, Steve Mobs makes an appearance. Link [via]

It’s funny how the Simpsons seem to pop up everywhere. Especially Homer. From USB-powered lights to wall clocks to iPods, you just can’t seem to escape the charm of America’s favorite yellow family. Even across the world, in Aviles, Spain, Homer is turning up in odd places. A shopkeeper found him on the back of a one Euro coin instead ...
