Usually I like to pull pictures from the GAG's pool starting with the oldest postings, things that I've had plenty of time to be certain that I really like, and although this one is from the front I'm pretty sure I like it and as a Rorschach test this could keep you going for hours. Fly's head, Buddha, A Tattoo'd apple, its great. and Its by Zonal1, whose photo-stream can be found here.

So here is my latest. I don't know how long this series will run for. I have probably told myself it was over about five times only find myself back at it. I tell myself just for fun, that I'll see it in another color, so I do.

Where I come from people might look at this and utter "Bit'chin Camero" regardless that there is in fact no Camero here, or even a car, but instead a virtual knot made of boxes. A generated knot that is so great i'm left with no response that is actually referential to the image in question. therefore- the bit'chin Camero. This image was created by Isaac Bordens his Flickr stream is here I have not yet come across a website for him but I'll keep you posted.

This image captures nothing but motion, with no objects or subjects, It may just be some kind of visual verb connecting two objects or ideas to each other, but which by itself carries no weight. All its stuff can be had here.

If you don't know of this guy's work then do yourself a favor and watch his TED talk (after the page-break) These are the most beautiful machines I've seen in a very long time, and I feel confident that if you can push through the first couple minutes, you will be greatly rewarded, I promise.

The Biggest question I have is when you buy nothing for a penny do they still expect you to pay the $4.99 Shipping and handling?... OMFG this guy may be a genius! here's the link to buy nothing.

Why waste my time trying to make products, when I can sell nothing at all and make dough on the shipping.
