Link love Fridays: an original video, metal sculptures and book autopsies

January 23, 2010

Sex described with pens. That’s what this video is about. Office supplies just got a whole new meaning. Seen on Fabulously Broke.

I’ve been meaning to write about Book Autopsies for a while now, but I kept forgetting. Well, I remembered today, so here it it! By Brian Dettmer who carves into books revealing the artwork inside, creating complex layered three-dimensional sculptures.

And speaking of carving unusual stuff, see how metal is turned into lace? Amazing work by Cal Lane. Via Fabulously Broke.

Have an awesome and inspiring weekend! I’m off to the gym.

The pen thing is brilliant! I wonder if Alvaro C is an office drone with creativity above his station in life. I like to wonder about things like this :)

p.s. Given I saw the word ‘sex’ I initially didn’t think you wrote “sex described with PENS”. I’m sure Freud would have something to say about that! Ho hum.
