The Contractor is art. Designed by Todd James, only available in an edition of 25, this shiny black glazed porcelain is highly collectable. It’s available from Toykyo for 750 Euros. What do you think? Does this art speak to geeks? Or will you pass on this one?
The holy unholy terror of Pyramid Head in stained glass
Stained glass always reminds me of churches and cathedrals. What about you? For me, stained glass therefore has implications of holy places and perhaps even protection.

The amazing art of Per Haagensen
I keep an eye on some LiveJournal communities via RSS. Remember LiveJournal? It’s all Russian now but there are some communities good at surfacing interesting pictures.
