So what does one do with giant Atari cartridges? Who knows, really. Maybe you stuff them with something soft and use them as a pillow or cushion while gaming. Maybe you take your giant Atari cartridge around the world, photographing it at various landmarks. If you’re Snaggs, the creator of this particular project, you show ‘em off at a gallery. This is art, people!
