“Electronic Chaos” Vinyl Wall Stickers Add Atmosphere of Production

chaos1

I love the idea of creating a chaotic assembly line of power on a plain white wall. The “Electronic Chaos” vinyl wall stickers are a gorgeous addition for the wall behind the gadgets.

Designed by Julia Wolf and created by Diz Decor, “Electronic Chaos” illustrates the connection of energy between all of your electronics. More chaos after the leap.

Awesome Dad Creates Rad Lunch Bag Art Every Day and Blogs About It

lunch1

If only my father was half as cool as this guy. Pretty much every single day this father creates a new piece of art on his kids lunch bags. He uses his lunch break to craft these awesome drawings. Sometimes they are known characters, but most of the time the art is inspired by obscure cartoons or YouTube videos. He than takes a photo of the art and posts it on his Lunch Bag Art Tumblr blog.

Lucky friggen’ kids. Even in my 20s I wouldn’t mind having someone draw me some awesome lunch bag art, especially if they all had such awesome subjects as “Robot Dinosaurs That Shoot Beams When They Roar.” You just have to make sure no one tries to steal your food. After the jump you’ll find a few more of his more recent works.

Milky Way Caramel Seat Belts Stretch The Definition of Creative Advertising

2_milkyway_seatbelt

I was much more of a Milky Way fan when I was a kid. Not exactly sure why. These days I’m more of a Reese’s or Snickers guy. Perhaps the geniuses over in the Milky Way advertising department were utilizing my soft child-like brain to bend my consciousness to their will, forcing me to favor their candy bar with their creative marketing ploys.

For real, just look at this caramel-stretching campaign that Milky Way has launched using taxi seat belts. I mean, what the hell? Children can only take so much coercion! Leave my brain alone, Milky Way! More pic love after the jumperoni. (more…)

Yes! Just in time for winter comes a hat that will surely satisfy your tentacle fetish. They are hats that resemble squid and are handmade by Mike, aka MikeST on Flickr. Two of the tentacles contain mittens; a neat feature on headwear that’s already pretty creative!

LEGO Vending Machine

Whoa, whoa. Hold up.

The title of this post could be seen as deceptive. I swear, these are not my intentions. I just had to show you Nick Dean’s LEGO creation that features a vending machine made out of LEGOs. There’s a bill reader included on the side and even mini-plastic packaging for the ammo clips and supplies that await inside. It even appears to feature a custom sticker design, though I haven’t kept completely up-to-date on my LEGO sets.

Guitar Hero On A Bike

I put this up in Afternoon Linkage but what the hell, it’s entertaining enough to demand a post. It’s a guy doing Guitar Hero on a bicycle. I can’t explain but it’s very well done. Watch.

Adobe Sets CS4 Launch Date

Meme-makers and graphics designers alike are going to have a great September this year. Adobe has just announced that it’s latest update to the Creative Suite series of products (Photoshop, Illustrator, etc.) will be released September 23rd. The update, CS4, will contain the long-awaited Photoshop CS4, which will be available in a 64-bit Windows version. That doesn’t make much sense considering how much power is in a Mac Pro running a 64-bit OS but I’m sure Adobe will come to its senses.

No word yet on cost but in another three weeks you’ll be hitting the Bit Torrent sites like wildfire.

Genuine Creative SE2300 Wireless Headphones; No wires!

creative se2300

Well if you didn’t get the Borat innuendo in the title, sucks for you; Anyways, Creative just came out with the SE2300 Wireless Headphones. These headphones are perfect for those of you who just happen to somehow get all tangled up every time you dance to your iPod; that could be the fact that you can’t dance, but for this let’s just say that it’s because of the headphone wire. You can perfect those “already goodâ€? dance moves by simply plugging in the transmitter into your device-of-choice into the headphone jack and you’re free to boogie. Transmit your tunes with Bluetooth to your clip-on headphones; yes, they are clip-on headphones, just like the ones you get on Delta flights, and they don’t look very comfortable at that. The battery built into these Creative headphones lasts about 8 hours on a full charge and is rechargeable via USB or AC adaptor. With the SE2300 Wireless Headphones draining your bank account $100 if purchased, it would probably be wise to either not buy them or wait until they come out with a better design for the headphones (arguably the most important part of wireless headphones…). — Nick Rice
