(not Smorkin’) Labbit
"Much healthier than his smorkin’ cousins, this non-smorkin’ 5 inch counterpart has been simply dubbed "Labbit." Rotocast in pure white soft vinyl with bright innocent eyes, each one comes with 4 different accessories to interchange - a banana, pipe, lollipop, ice cream cone, mustache and much more!"

X-Ray Vinyl Recordings
I was quite fascinated by this page by József Hajdú about the old practice of using discarded x-ray fim as a recording medium for music. The end result is a weird type of picture-disc with so many layers of data.
"During the late 1930s and early 1940s the prevalent sound recording apparatus was the wax disk cutter. As a consequence of the lack of materials in the war-time economy, some inventive sound hunters made their own experiments with new materials within their reach. I do not know the name of the inventor who first utilized discarded medical X-ray film as the base material for new record discs; however, the method became so widespread in Hungary that not only amateurs, but the Hungarian Radio made sound recordings on such recycled X-ray films." - József Hajdú

Talk Like A Pirate Day - Sept 19
The International Talk Like A Pirate Day is approaching fast - September 19th. I do hope you've been busy practicing your "Arrr mi hearties" and "Hoist the mainsails" because if you haven't, I'm telling ya - all those more sea-worthly pirates are gunna blow a hole through your portside. I'm curious if there will be an abundance of World of Warcraft players taking Deviate Delight that day.

Antonio Riello’s Ladies Weapons
Antonio Riello's Ladies Weapons are a fun juxtaposition of guns n girliness .
"In 1998 I decided to focus my artistic research mainly about a "fashion-fiction" visual story regarding an old passion of mine: weapons - objects full of symbolic senses. I want to mix, in an artistic way, traditional 'female stuff' like fashion with very traditional 'male stuff' like guns. It consists in a restyling of real military weapons into fashion items for ladies"

The Abandoned City of San Zhi
Photos of a really neat looking city, San Zhi, that are even more interesting because the whole place is abandoned and supposedly haunted. I gotta find some weird places like this around where I live ;)

Gravity Defying Speakers
This video demonstrates the use of sound waves to make things levitate. However, the device is not only able to suspend objects in mid-air, but also to rotate and move them around three dimensionally.

Borat is Crazy
Borat is a fictional character played by the witty Brit Sacha Cohen (most famous for his persona Ali G). The Borat movie is coming out soon, which documents the travels of the Kazakhstani 'journalist' through America. Borat is the only actor - the rest of the movie is how people really would react to such a cartoon-ish person. Very not-politically-correct, very funny.
