Too cute. In celebration of Pac-Man’s 30th birthday today, Google features a playable Pac-Man game in their homepage logo! Love the Insert Coin button.

Update: Thanks to those of you who pointed out that hitting the Insert Coin button a second time selects 2-player mode, with Ms. Pac-Man!

Update 2, The Sequel: Google now has a permanent Pac-Man URL for those of us that missed it on the homepage!

Stop The Violence is a series by photographer Francois Robert, who uses human bones to construct symbols of war and violence. From the artist:

The human skeleton is a powerful visual symbol. It’s come to represent the “remains”, what’s left after life has ended, after the flesh and mind cease to function. In my photographs, I use the human skeleton as the formal visual element, the subject of the image. In this manner, the skeleton is both the protagonist and antagonist (the Buddhist notion about, “the duality of man” seems apt.

For each photograph I disassemble the modular system of the skeleton and reconfigure the elements to form a new image. These images are man made. Images of aggression, images that cause suffering, devastation and conflict. I intend the images to plant the notion of restraint and charity in an effort to promote peace and tolerance.

You might remember Robert from his Contents series.

The other morning, I never expected to stumble across a photo of my own bear design reincarnated as a tattoo on a stranger’s skin. Many thanks to recently-inked Adrienne of Toronto for sharing the photo! I am humbled and honored.

Dali’s Clock: a glass-domed clock made from ebony and holly wood, leather, and other found objects. By inspiring woodworker Palo Samko.

On a semi-related note, today would have been Salvador Dali’s 106th birthday!

Just caught wind of this gorgeous Dumbo-area triplex clock tower penthouse apartment (with electronically synchronized clock-windows, glass-walled elevator, and view overlooking the Brooklyn Bridge) that could have been yours late last year for a mere $25 million.

Such an amazing illustration. It has been traveling around Tumblr for a little while now, with no sign of whose work it is. The original image is on the Behance servers, but I cannot find the profile associated with it.

Can any of you help to identify the artist?

You guys are the best. Big thanks to commenter Justin, and fellow Tumblrerers heybecky and wbh for identifying the artist as none other than Sweden’s own Annika Bäckström, a wonderful artist who has graced my blog before.

Her beautiful piece above is Höra ihop.
