Keaton Music Typewriter

Though less a piece of artwork itself, this typewriter that types musical notes to create sheet music is way cool. And at the time of this post, it appears to still for sale over on Etsy. LINK

Dominoes Everywhere for the Holidays

This is a cute little musical bit created with dominoes. LINK

Floating Lanterns

The residents of Poznań, Poland released 11,000 floating lanterns to celebrate the arrival of summer. Very pretty. LINK

Chronotopic Anamorphosis

A cool idea, digitally manipulating a video by fragmenting it horizontally then modifying the element of time in each strip. See the distortions for yourself. LINK

The Nogg

The Nogg is a beautifully-designed chicken coop. Portable, ecological, and stylish, it even has a skylight! LINK

Exit Through the Pet Shop :: Keyboard Cat

Sometimes I just feel bad for Charlie Schmidt's cat. But for anyone who saw Banksy's Exit Through the Gift Shop, this feline parody will bring a smile to your face. LINK

FRAMEicariums :: Hugh Hayden and Katie Vitale

Inserting ants into picture frames culminates in some wondrous creations. Check out more of their ANTique framing results at Hugh's site. LINK

Fly Humor :: Magnus Muhr

Swedish photographer Magnus Muhr must have had some down time between assignments when he created this simple series of photographs. Though they have already made the rounds in the blogosphere, I can't help but appreciate how simple pencil drawings combined with dead insects can bring a smile to one's day. See them all at his website. LINK

Rewrite

Read this gallery window display to understand the project created by artists Micah Lexier and Christian Bok. I find the rewrite particularly impressive.

Tiger Oil Memos

The viewpoints of Tiger Oil CEO Edward "Tiger Mike" Davis, and his inability to refrain from sharing them, may explain why the company went backrupt in 1980. If you've ever thought you've had a bad boss, reading these memos could help you see him/her in a different light. LINK

Historical Facebook

These fictitious facebook posts by historical figures are quite funny. You may want to think twice before sharing with your children though, not so much for the occasional language issues as the need for explanations. Oh, and don't miss the link to Part 2 at the end. LINK

Exquisite Clock

This art project shows a whole slew of photos that see the numbers in everyday objects. Check out the online clock. LINK
Or see a video about the project on Vimeo. LINK

Crashed Ice

Imagine the X-games meets winter. High-speed downhill skate racing! Not only are some of the courses out of control, some of the sites are amazingly beautiful. See photos and watch videos of past events. LINK

Miracle on the Hudson Resurrected

This time-lapse video shows US Airways flight 1549 (the miracle on the Hudson) being resurrected from the icy waters. The ice on the water makes it particularly fascinating to watch, let alone the huge scale of the cranes. LINK

Bread People

I've always been a fan of a pun so these photoshopped celebrities tickled my fancy. See more at the Bread People site. LINK

Fishing Lures :: Tedd McDonah

Ted McDonah creates some really cool art fishing lures while recycling at the same time. And you can buy them at his Etsy shop. LINK

Analogical Tetris :: codeco

codeco is a collective that looks at the digital in real life. In this video, we see a demonstration of their real-life tetris game (which is for sale or rent if you can figure out what Spanish-speaking country they are in.) LINK

555 KUBIK :: Urban Screen

So far, this is one of the better building projection projects I've seen, somewhat because of the building surface that was the background. See the video for 555 KUBIK on Vimeo. LINK

Or check out other projects done by Urban Screen at their site. LINK

Dry-Erase Appliances

This is a clever idea for self promotion. She has a good sense of humor. LINK

Letters to Dead People :: Celine Song

An interesting idea to write short messages to those who have passed on. Some of them are quite funny. LINK
