It’s like the day the music died in reverse. The company And Vinyly lets you use your own or your pets cremated ashes to create a limited run of vinyl records. Each record holds a 24-minute segment in which you customize with final thoughts or your favorite music. For extra fees, you can add in exclusive artwork, where UK artist James Hague adds your ash to the paint; original music by artists on Leach’s record labels; and even worldwide distribution...

In most cases, stacking crap you don’t wanna throw out or just can’t find it in yourself to part with (magazines, mail, soiled diapers, you know, the usual) could be seen as either hoarding or just plain unorganized. The Vinyl Wall Sticker Chair gives you an excuse to stack crap in massive piles on your floor. And that excuse, ironic enough, is space saving. Go ahead, pile those decade old National Geographic mags on your floor space. It’s your damn... Continue reading

Always more of a Star Wars guy than a Trekkie, I still couldn’t help but shit myself just a tad when I saw this awesome Star Trek Enterprise Record Player concept. Had no one really thought about this before? Was there not a similar creation already in existence? It seems so clear! Inspired by the USS Enterprise starfleet from the Star Trek TV series and featured on the Star Trek Model Gallery, the Enterprise Record Player could be the ultimate... Continue reading

There have been countless methods of recycling your old, abandoned, bong water-stained vinyl, but none that have integrated the actual casing and cover art as well. If you have such epic records as Led Zeppelin‘s IV, there is no reason NOT to show them off some how. BUGHOUSE designed this unique record table, which would fit spectacularly into your den of devil worship. It’s much more thoughtful than simply throwing them in the trash bin, surely. Link [via]

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.

This is the sort of thing you can only find on eBay these days. Let me introduce “Star Wars Dub.” Perhaps the geekiest reggae recording ever produced (and by master producer Phil Pratt, no less.) And this is no average Star Wars Dub record. This is the special edition blue vinyl version. As of this posting the album was bid up to $11.16. You can expect this rare record to fetch nearly $100, if not upwards of that. But damn,... Continue reading

We’ve seen a lot of artists this month. From Nikki Cook‘s comics to Adam Stennett‘s oil paintings, we just can’t get enough! The latest to grace our inbox is Korean artist Jean Shin. The above picture is her sculpture called “Sound Wave,” which is made solely out of melted vinyl records to express the awareness of rising technology which renders each successive generation of recordable media obsolete. If you’re in the New York area, you can check out some of... Continue reading

Design superstar Kaws got the inspiration for his latest creation from the iconic Star Wars Stormtrooper. This figurine combines Kaws’ signature skeleton with the classic uniform of the evil Imperial clone troops. Details about the Kaws stormtrooper are in short supply, but Hypebeast says it’s rumored to be a limited release for the OriginalFake store in Tokyo. This isn’t the first time Kaws has made a piece influenced by Star Wars. Last year, he made a Darth Vader figurine that... Continue reading

Aleks Kolkowski’s exhibit at the Futuresonic 2008 festival in Manchester is turning heads. He owns an original vinyl cutting device intended for making 45rpm records that is now being used to draw grooves in CDs. During the festival, spectators were invited to bring in their old, unwanted CDs and have them etched with a song so they can be played on a turntable. Talk about regression! Link (via)
