This piece of cyberpunk wearable art from artist Dominic Elvin will upgrade your brain with some side mounted LEDs and built-in optical targeting with threat analyzing systems. Nah. It will just make you look like an early Borg model.

Even if you use the Internet only casually – thanks for spending time here! – chances are several companies have gathered a bit of data about you, or at least your online habits. These trawlers range from big fish such as Facebook, Google or your government to obscure advertising companies and perhaps even hackers.

Artist Diego Trujillo built a highly unusual printer that’s way more secure than Snapchat. Inspired by reports of a Russian security’s decision to revert to typewriters and The Guardian destroying computer hardware that allegedly stored leaked NSA files from Edward Snowden, Diego made This Tape Will Self Destruct, a machine whose output sets itself on fire shortly after being printed.

One of my favorite scenes in the Indiana Jones movies is where Dr. Jones and his gal are caught on the bridge and have to fight. That bridge scene always gave me the creeps growing up.

Any Star Wars fans with a room in a home or office that needs decorating will want to check these out. Star Wars posters have been around for decades now, but this is the first time I have seen any Star Wars canvas prints.

World of Warcraft players will be familiar with the goblin copter. It’s a cartoonish flying device that goblins fly around for whatever reason goblins need for taking to the air. One geeky fan of the game has actually built his own goblin copter.

You know, I never realy gave much thought to chainsaw art until I saw Griffon Ramsey doing her thing in the video below. It’s fascinating. Watch as Ramsey works her magic and creates a sculpture of Groot using several chainsaws and some Eastern Red Cedar wood.

Forget cutesy LEGO games like Indiana Jones, I want LEGO DOOM. I loved DOOM on the PC, even though it scared the crap out of me regularly and made me jump like a child. I think DOOM is one of the most memorable of all the shooters I played back in the day.

Here’s an app that adds another meaning to Ghost in the machine. Currently in development, VRClay lets you create 3D shapes in virtual reality with the help of the Oculus Rift and the Razer Hydra controllers.

Screen print artist and 3D animator Olivier Marchand pays tribute to one of video gaming’s first hits by turning its 8-bit characters into parts of a mandala, a pattern often used to describe the wholeness of the universe or the impermanence of life.

A couple of weeks ago, after it unveiled the new iPhones and its smartwatch, Apple’s “one more thing” was… spam. The company gave away U2’s latest album Songs of Innocence for free to all iTunes users, making iTunes download it without people’s consent.

Silence is golden, duct tape is silver… or orange, red, blue, or white. Duct tape can fix just about anything and is one of the best inventions ever. A artist named Rianna from DuctTapeDesigns has created some very cool art using duct tape as the medium.

I’m not a drinker, mostly because I can hardly control what I say or do when sober. If you are a fan of wine and Game of Thrones, artist OSKUNK has the perfect item for you.

As part of the latest edition of Comic Book Resources’ The Line It Is Drawn series, they asked their artists to think of some dream teams for superhero titles and they did not disappoint. In fact, this interesting art came out of it.

Art collective La Machine is known for huge, mechanical art installations that walk around and interact with people. They’ve made elephants, camels, and giant spiders among other things. Their latest piece may be the best. This is a giant dragon walking around in France.

I am a big fan of Post-It Notes, mostly because I can stick them to my monitor to help me remember to do all the crap I need to do. That’s all I really think of using them for, but artist Akira Nagaya is a bit more creative.
