Wet ‘n’ Wild by Slinkachu

Posted by Alex in Art, Pictures, Video Clips on March 22, 2011 at 1:02 pm

"Little people" artist Slinkachu (featured on Neatorama before) created this clever installation of his tiny people playing on a tiny waterslide (what fun!)

I got back from Fame Festival in Southern Italy last week, after spending a few days making installations around the city. I made six in all, including a few that used miniature speakers and mp3 players to add sound. The one above had a speaker hidden in the drain that played sounds of screaming kids and splashing – check out the video below. I will be posting more soon, including a video showing the reactions of Grottaglie’s residents to one of the sound installations.

More pics and a video clip after the jump: more …

House with a Waterslide Directly from the Bedroom Closet

Posted by John Farrier in Architecture, Society & Culture on March 12, 2011 at 6:22 pm

This is just the right way to start the day! Look at the top of the picture. The bedroom is on the other side of the glass. Roll out of bed, drop into the waterslide, and head into the pool. This luxury home (for sale!) in Bowdon, UK, has everything one could ask for.

Giant Water-Slide Rental House

Posted by Queuebot in Architecture on May 11, 2010 at 8:07 am

What kid hasn’t fantasized about rolling out of bed onto a waterslide into a pool?  I know I have. This one’s for real, not from a bedroom but from the top balcony of a three-story vacation villa in Koh Samui, Thailand. And it’s not some wimpy waterslide, but a 256-ft-long whopper, with a double loop like a real waterpark slide.

So here’s the scoop: I’m about to turn 30 – this friday in fact. Also: I love waterslides. Then I found a competition which, if I get enough votes, will send me around the world to the biggest watersldies there are. Best Present. Ever. This is my entry. Did it in an hour.

If you like it and fancy voting me into a state of splashy swooshy ecstasy, Vote for Slideyman in the Barclay Waterslide video competition. Just click the green thumbs up! Link 

Love and Waterslides,
Oscar
