Created by artist and avid gamer Kalapusa, this life-sized Piranha Plant illustrates what life might be like if we lived in a world closer to Mario’s world.
Composed of a special mix of acrylics, clay and a strengthened wire skeleton, I wouldn’t get too close to this thing with any animals lighter than 50 lbs. It’s looking mighty hungry. This plant creeps me out sort of like how wax museums creep me out. It has that uncanny thing going on.
Want the punching power of a knuckle duster with a little more style? Ditch the brass for these acrylic animal rings that will seriously mess up your opponent’s face upon contact. Forests, wolves, chickens – I love the way these things look. And for $12, you’ll like the way your next bank statement looks, too.
35-year old blogger Tanya Vlach lost one of her eyes in a car accident three years ago. Now she wants to make the best of it by replacing her prosthetic acrylic eye with an ‘eye cam’ – a webcam for her eye socket. She wants one capable of dilating with changes of light that also allows her to blink to control its zoom, focus and an on/off switch for when she sees something too obscene to record.
“There have been all sorts of cyborgs in science fiction for a long time, and I’m sort of a sci-fi geek,” said Vlach. “With the advancement of technology, I thought, ‘Why not?’”
With an eye like that she could blog her daily events and life story through her own eye’s perspective. I hope she leaves it on while in the shower. That’s a webcam blog I’d like to see!
Ever have a cathode ray tube blow up in your face? You poor soul. With your disfigured mug, there’s little that could possibly cheer you up. After all, if I looked like the Two-Face I’d probably throw myself from a pier. This clock is sure to remind you of that terrible day your face became disfigured. That or your days as a Captain in the Navy.
A cathode ray tube sits inside a transparent acrylic tube. It might look like the guts of your old monitor but in actuality it is a clock that displays various formats of time thanks to a SC200 clock board. Nixie enthusiast David Forbes is eager to sell these works of art for an eye-gouging $999. The intricate design shows an astounding amount of commitment thrown in that’ll complement any mantle.
Seems acrylic bongs weren’t enough. Now acrylic case mods are all the rage. Of course, this also makes your computer easily modifiable and upgradeable because everything isn’t packed away in some wheel of cheese. Adding and removing cards, memory and storage has never been easier.
The acrylic cases were designed by Digital Cowboy who are calling it the Acrylic Cowboy. Several different styles are available, ranging from the standard orange platform, to the bad ass smoke gray design which places your motherboard at a special 25-degree angle, ensuring without any doubt that you’re one extreme dude. Now, if you put your PC in a black box case mod, you’ll be anything but extreme. They’re available in Japan from $37 to $101, but be warned, these case mods are not water-proof. Take a flight, don’t swim, or you’ll be drinking your own urine for hydration.
