Beautiful! I agree w/Zeon. (As a sculptor, transforming materials into something else is fun/difficult/and really awesome when it works out). I love this piece.
Good design/architecture is essential to human survival. Good design with a hideous name (the SLUMTUBE !!) should also involve someone who doesn't have their head somewhere else, so to speak.
Here's some copy to start off with: 'Sometimes, when humans have materials/time/money we make fancy things like basilicas, ziggurats, etc. Because we are a resourceful species, we have also been making a less elaborate version of these pallet homes for decades...'
I am all for creative exploration, but she should have trimmed her own eyelashes, or used mascara to blend them in.

1. hilarious! due, in large part to its impropriety 2. absolutely! 3. as a comedic concept
lemme get this straight: in the movies: "hidden camera film footage “smuggled out” of somewhere showing people CAT JUGGLING - a crime so heinous that it outrages Johnson." in real life: junknews footage of people dropping babies from 50 ft is cool, and reminds people of a funny bit they saw...
