A Tool to Deceive and Slaughter is a piece of artwork by Caleb Larson that perpetually tries to sells itself. Every ten minutes the black box pings a server on the internet via the ethernet connection to check if it is for sale on the eBay. If its auction has ended or it has sold, it automatically creates a new auction of itself.

Plotter Drawings
http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/eightface/~3/D5BLNxjW6wY/
Plotter drawings from the 1960s. These are probably some of the earliest examples of digital artwork. The Wikipedia entry has some more information about plotters. Pen plotters print by moving a pen across the surface of a piece of paper. When computer memory was very expensive, and processor power was very limited, this was often the fastest way to efficiently produce very large drawings or color high-resolution vector-based artwork. That would’ve been some fun programming.

Whiskerino
http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/eightface/~3/skNRNxmJfCo/
This is the last year of Whiskerino, an exercise in camaraderie, manliness, photography and general beard growing. The last time it occurred, I was travelling without a razor, already rocking a massive beard, and was unable to compete. Basically, you start on November 1st, clean shaven and don’t touch your razor or any other trimming implements until February 28th, making a full 120 days of uninhibited beard growth. I will be uploading a daily photo to my profile on Whiskerino and occasionally to my flickr stream, if you feel like keeping track. I’m also planning on producing a book at the end of it, with each of the daily photos and a collage which may or may not be related to the day’s photo.

Deadline is an animated stop-motion short that used more than six-thousand Post-it notes to emulate pixel art. Also, make sure to check out the making of video.

Thomas Allen cuts up pulp books and arranges them in a new context to create stunning photographs. I recently came across this post featuring samples of his work, and his desktop wallpaper for Kitsune Noir. His work is also featured at Foley Gallery, Carroll and Sons and Joseph Bellows Gallery.

Stealing the Mona Lisa
http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/eightface/~3/2XCGjpvjYDc/
A recent Vanity Fair article on the theft of the Mona Lisa in 1911 indicates that it may have been part of a larger scam to sell forgeries to unsuspecting buyers.
