Oh my gosh, this is amazing! I had no idea this was lampwork. I always thought of those weird and colorful little beads. This is a million times cooler than that!

That’s so great. There are some days I really need that shirt to wear to class…





Absolutely fascinating sculptures, right?
Actually, no. These are 3D images. How I wish these were real.
Mike Campau: This series of images makes a statement about the human form and the effects of nature, society and surrounding environments. In each case the human form was created in 3d, posed in a sexy or heroic position and then disfigured by a displacement map created from natural and man made elements. The final image results in something that is grotesque and beautiful at the same time.
ninakix: Heatherwick Studio created this “Extrusions exhibition,” which is on display at Haunch of Venison gallery in London. There are six pieces of extruded aluminum furniture, made by the world’s largest extrusion machine and required 300 hours of polishing each. (via Dezeen)
300 hours of polishing. 300 HOURS of polishing. 300 hours of POLISHING.
OMG I WOULD KILL MYSELF.
