Book Art

While we are on the subject of books...
Check out these wonderful art pieces by Brian Dettmer the Book Surgeon (via My Modern Met). As the article says:

"Using knives, tweezers and surgical tools, Brian Dettmer carves one page at a time. Nothing inside the out-of-date encyclopedias, medical journals, illustration books, or dictionaries is relocated or implanted, only removed.

Dettmer manipulates the pages and spines to form the shape of his sculptures. He also folds, bends, rolls, and stacks multiple books to create completely original sculptural forms."

Animation Short: The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore

With imaginative story, fun animation, and a sweet conclusion. This short made me think of all the books I have loved and lost over the years.

I'm Back!

Been awhile.

I keep thinking about blogging but just never get around to it. Which is sad since I know so many people want to know my inner thoughts and read the cool things I have found.

But I am back now so keep checking for lots of cool thoughts and stuff.
