This is a pretty noval approach to filming a video, especially if you have no budget for camera’s, lighting or those big silver, padded boxes. Manchester band; The Get Out Clause, performed for their video in-front of CCTV cameras, then requested the footage under the Data Protection Act. A little bit of editing and a fascinating music video was born.

A follow on from Mr Lee’s Catcam, Fritz Catcam pictorially documents the adventures of Fritz the cat.
And yes, I am still amazed no one has turned this idea into a commercial product…a kitteh flickr stream would be fascinating!

Probably should have saved this one for easter really…

Pointless, yet mildly entertaining…the DanceWriter dances the letters you type and allows you to send a cryptic ‘dancewritten’ email to your unsuspecting friends.

The Tweel is a pretty crazy innovation for tires, Michelin removed the sides and added a bit of structure to create ‘airless’ tires. Great, but they kinda look like pram wheels.
There are some more images here.

No, this isn’t the produce of a shop for organic vegetables at West Ealing market.
The mutatocollection is a gallery of beautifully photographed, mutated fruit and veg, all organised according to colour by Uli Westphal. A fascinating browse…

I know this is the question that has been at the forefront of your mind since it was announced…
