			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Swedish artist <a href="http://www.alltelleringet.com/">Erik Johansson</a> has both delighted and disappointed me today. His digital art and image manipulation is top notch, and anything influenced by <em>Tetris</em> is of course awesome. But as great as this piece is, it&#8217;s terribly sad, because I cannot play giant <em>Tetris</em>.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-13178" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/tb-gtejsa1.jpg" alt="tb gtejsa1" width="520" height="520" title="tb gtejsa1 photo" /></p>
<p>This is just begging for someone to make a flash game for this concept: using a crane to manipulate giant tetrominoes in order to build something. Or take another cue from Johansson and cook up a game based on playing Tic-Tac-Toe in an unfinished road. Yes, <em>in</em>, not <em>on</em>.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-13179" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/tb-ejswttt2.jpg" alt="tb ejswttt2" width="520" height="365" title="tb ejswttt2 photo" /></p>
<p>Classic games are perfect for these kinds of digital art. I&#8217;d hate to see what this guy could do with something like <em>Call of Duty</em>&#8230;.</p>
