Thanks Cory for finding this. It's bizzare, but it made me smile..a twisted smile.

Smoking skeleton garden-ornament

Grimgarden's "Doomies" are little ceramic fellers shaped like hooded death. Fill them with incense cones and they waft magic stench through your poisoned herbs and carnivorous fly-traps. Link (Thanks, Stefan!)

Update: Geez, I almost missed their "Rebirdy" -- a skull-shaped bird feeder that has the chirpy critters feeding out of the eye-sockets

The old and the new. Beautiful Indian Comic books!

The old indian comic books were oh so dreamy, so old world, and rich in color.

There is an exciting new take now.....

"Hollywood's search for new mythologies now extends to the Indian subcontinent.  One of the world's greatest stories, India's Ramayana, is being retold as a post-apocalyptic comic book, in "Ramayana Reborn," with an animated television spinoff for kids titled "The Seven Sounds."  This is the brainchild of the newly launched Virgin Comics and Virgin Animation, an entertainment partnership between British billionaire Richard Branson, bestselling New Age author Deepak Chopra, film director Shekhar Kapur ("Bandit Queen" and "Elizabeth") and India's leading licenser of comic books, Gotham Entertainment Group, which has brought "Spider-Man" and "X-Men" to Delhi and Bombay, as well as launched a new Indian version of "Spider-Man" across the world."

Michael Moschen - Juggling as art?

Ed — Tue, 24 Jun 2008 19:55:23 -0700

I've been a fan of Michael Moschen for many years. What a treat to fing this on TED! Michael Moschen puts on a quietly mesmerizing show of juggling. Don't think juggling is an art? You might just change your mind after watching Moschen in motion.

Frozen Art

Digital Man — Sat, 21 Jun 2008 12:04:01 -0700

A recent post by Tattoomama was about a very unique style of animation - or as she referred to it - art-in-motion.

It reminded me of another "strange" art-form someone shared with me. Kind of a reverse from art-in-motion to frozen art.
