Mass of bodies forms monolith, smiles all around

Vigeland Sculpture Park is massive, I chose this photo for the wtf,ness; the smiley girls at the beach with the tower of bodies behind.  It's all made out of granite so it will last along time.  Five thousand years from now, after being carted off to some museum in pieces, someone will point out that those girls at the beach belong in front of the tower of mashed bodies.  That someone will be laughed out of the out place. Ha who would believe.

Killer painting; known to strike passerby's down at a glance.


Holy cow! I can't believe John Brewster, Jr. survived painting this, I'm sure being deaf helped.  Maybe she's pissed she can't verbally torment him.  I'm starting to feel like I did something wrong just blogging about it.

Robots 13:11;  "Take pity on your robot overlords - for they have toiled at our service, only to be ill serviced, over worked, and scraped. Illustrated here by  Daniele Del Rosso, well know for his art works depicting the book of Robot.

  Years ago I was tasked to visualize a synapse within a brain.
I was working in a 3-D animation program that tended to push the look in a certain way, so it always looked like a computer was the art director.  This mental circuitry of Alvin Lustig, is what I would really have liked it to  look like, although you could say the pen was the art director on this piece.
