This is a pretty cool video of an arm attached to two record players and they are drawing. What are they drawing? 'DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE' over and over again, just kidding! it looks like a worm hold or something, who knows. Its a pretty cool concept, hacking some old turntables and just seeing what the end result is. I wonder if I would have the same effect if i were to take some string and attach it to the turntable inside the microwave..... Hmm....?

HG Giger Alien heels!!!?

In case you didnt know who HG Giger is, he is an amazing artist that deals with fantasy, scifi and is the innovator of the 'Alien' character that made the 'Alien' movie franchise very successful. Well it seems that a famous fashion designer, Alexander McQueen was so motivated that he actually made some high heels for the ladies that are in retrospect HG Giger-esque and I have to say that I think he pulled it off. However at the same time they are kinda ugly but they are just so cool! I am a very very big Giger and Alien fan and I am still contemplating weather I would buy a pair just to have in my collection. Check them out, tell me what you think.

While we are on the subject of shoes and media/gaming, take a look at these other cool video game inspired heels/shoes for the ladies. This easily can go on and on forever because it not only stops for women but men also have cool inspired Nike/Converse shoes, however were just gonna highlight these at the moment till I find some cool guys shoes.

OMG WTF!

Just when you thought you saw it all, theres this.....
What you are seeing is a real Jaguar thats been gutted of its heavier parts and hung on a wall to serve as a bookshelf. Why? No F'ing clue, I guess thats what rich people do. Not to brag or anything but I do have a bathtub made of an old NASA Space capsule. This is just as bad as the guy who converted his Porsche 911 into a home entertainment center. Hit the jump for pics and video of both.

In the "That's F'ing cool department!!"

The day has come where you can finally get cupcakes via an ATM machine. It seems that this is the only (not sure if there are more in the area) Cupcake ATM machine in Los Angeles. It's pretty straight forward, choose your cupcake, pay and its given to you right there on the spot. I still think there is someone behind that wall but it's assured to everyone that its all automated via robots (Judgement day is coming) plus theres a camera that shows you all of the action going on in the background. Pretty cool if you ask me. Now if we can just get the  ATM that dispenses a shot of Vodka and cranberry juice we'd be in business.

In the WTF department, DARPA and the Boston Dynamics have made their very own robotic cheetah that can gallop at 18 mph which according to sources has broken the previous record of 13.1 mph. Pretty cool to watch at the same time pretty freaky, hit the jump for video.

What a great way to start the new month than with a new artist that I have just discovered, Max Zorn. Who is Max Zorn? I don't know, like I said I just discovered him this very second and he is already my new favorite street artist/contemporary artist as of this moment. Max Zorn is by far the most clever and gifted artist that I have seen among many (all artists are great, dont get me wrong) but to me this guy takes the cake!! Armed with only packing tape and a scalpel he creates amazing works of art on public lights and fixtures dubbed 'Tape art' he has created famous celebrities, movie scenes, or whatever comes to his mind. All of his information can be found on his website along with his Facebook page. Its a shame that he lives in Germany but has been to the states at least once according to his map on his page where he has tagged all the places that he has left his mark on. I hope that he comes back real soon.
