Fashion Jewelry Designed From Human Teeth and Hair

Posted on 11 December 2009 by

Poly Van der Glas is an Australian silversmith, who won the Craft Victoria Fillipo Raphael Fresh Award, in 2006. She had a unique vision of utilizing human teeth and hair in making silver jewelry. Undoubtedly, her creative handcrafted pieces of jewelry won her acclaims throughout the world. Many believe that Poly Van der Glas has given the world of recycling a new perspective.
The process is undoubtedly very tedious in which firstly, teeth are collected from around Melbourne and then hair samples are collected from china and India. These are first sterilized and then hand crusted in silver to make earrings and rings. Hair is creatively painted in silver or simply artistically designed in silver chains to look appealing.
Some people find it awkward to wear pieces of stranger’s bodies like the teeth and hair as ornaments, however people agree that parts of loved ones could be accepted as tokens of affection. The fashion industry in all its eccentrics has accepted this jewelry and considered it as a new trend.

LEGO Star Wars Millenium Falcon

Posted on 02 November 2009 by

Whatever you used to play with as a child, what if I were to suggest that everyone labels some toys in particular that get recorded in history and constitute healthy conversation topics even long after those toys have gone out of fashion? One such toy is “Lego”. Lego has actually become so popular that they have Legoland parks at various locations around the world right now; which attract thousands of visitors from across the world every year. And Star Wars has also been especially popular all this time, among geeks and non-geeks alike. (Maybe you have heard of the “Star Wars Kid” and that Star Wars cartoon made up entirely of text characters?) But the Star Wars franchise has been appropriated in several projects – including the above mentioned Lego. And you can purchase and make the Lego Millennium Falcon today!

The Lego Millennium Falcon is nearly 3 feet long; it costs $499 and it is made of over 5,000 pieces! Look at pictures of it on the Internet at your leisure. The Millennium Falcon has been listed as the biggest Lego set ever sold. There are other perks you can get from it: it comes with its own mini-figures (Chewbacca, C3PO, Snowtrooper, Han Solo, Princess Leia); you can open the triangular plats on the top of the ship to see inside; and even pull out the starboard hatch lid and lower the boarding ramp, thus allowing your favourite Star Wars members to get on board!

Political Campaign in a Toy City

Posted on 27 October 2009 by

There’s just something about human beings that makes us indetachable from our past; having said that, it is oh so easy to find grown adults displaying exhibits celebrating childhood. These exhibits are not necessarily always low-profile ones – just look at the Legoland or Disneyland franchises.Some people believe that associating a theme to childhood toys gives it more meaning. Brothers Frederick and Gerrit Braun certainly understand this; their museum Miniatur Wunderland is visited by large numbers of tourists every year. These guys have been fans of model railroads since childhood; and they took their hobby further by creating the lucrative children’s museum.It all started in the run-up to the German elections on September 27. German political parties pictured the scene of election campaigns and they had it represented in the miniature toy town of the Braun brothers. It is incredibly realistic – not just people and buildings that are clearly public ones but also statues and adverts and even charity event scenes and a band. Note also the demonstration scenes with banners saying “Stop Privatisation!” and “No more Nazis!”

So they make it truly authentically “German”, even including a famous German monument. But even besides that, the creators take further steps to attract visitors and their appeal: see this with the little rivers that use real water (with the little people swimming in them and all); and that boarded-up building helps to emit a proper sense of “community”. I was also fond of the idea of that solar panel covering the roof of one of the buildings; and that see-through building; and that parade. There is a separate exhibit where they accumulate loads of little black, red and yellow people to create a giant German flag image from a distance; it includes loads of white people that spell the word “Wir” (“We” / “Us” in English).

When Farm Kids Get Bored

Posted on 26 October 2009 by

No-one likes being bored. It is not necessarily a destructive emotion (although the producers of Fight Club might disagree) but it does compromise your existence, no matter what your age, level of education, skill set, income or company. Of course, when you are on a farm, it is somewhat easy to imagine that one can get bored relatively easily. Stuck on a remote location in an environment where thirsty and repetitive work is the rule of the day, it is all but inevitable that one will eventually turn to unconventional use of common farm products if its means attaining the amusement that they yearn. Indeed, there are pictures on the Internet that show what wonderful works of art certain farm kids have made using haystacks. Get out the paint and start applying facial features to the side of a haystack; or get more adventurous. Some people like to make statues with more than one haystack, but there are also impressive life-size sculptures of a satellite dish, a rocket ship and even a ferris wheel! I’ve also seen a picture of a motorbike on its side with two Wellington boots sticking out of a nearby haystack, as though it were the result of a quite unusual accident!
