Giant Junkbots Made From Car Parts

Posted by Zeon Santos in Art, Art & Design, Auto & Transportation, Living, Pictures on November 19, 2011 at 12:24 am

These amazing metal sculptures, constructed out of old car and truck parts, are impressive in scale and design. Created by Tom Samui, these creations belong in a steampunk animal menagerie, or used as the coolest junkyard advertising ever.

These sculptures seem like a logistical nightmare, I mean how does he move this massive piece, with a crane? A gallery would have to be built around this piece, cause it ain’t coming in through the front door!

The Great Internet Migratory Box Of Electronics Junk

Posted by Queuebot in Art, Gadgets, Hacks & Mods, Science & Tech on March 22, 2009 at 1:16 pm

The Great Internet Migratory Box of Electronics Junk is sort roving flea market meets Internet meme.

The idea, hatched by the guys over at Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories, is to send a box containing random electronics junk to somebody who would take a few pieces, write about them, add some item, and then send it on its merry way to somebody else.

You can request a box or even start one of your own … and don’t forget to document the journey at Flickr!

Recipient Conditions for The Great Internet Migratory Box Of Electronics Junk:

1. Take out and add as much electronics junk as you like (but keep it small enough to fit in a USPS flat-rate Priority Mail box or the equivalent for your postal system).

2. Write up, photograph, document or otherwise publish in some way online at least one thing you took out (suggested flickr tag: TGIMBOEJ, see also: flickr group ).

3. There is a little book in the box. Add a checkmark by your name to show that the box has been to you. Also propose a future recipient by adding their name and e-mail address to the book.

4. Within two weeks pass the box along to one of the people whose name is in the book. Before mailing it to them, send them this list and make sure that they want to participate.
