Uhh.. Incredible? I’d say these have to be the whacked out weird fest champions (those kitties were so cute though). I present the depressing artwork of Tetsuya Ishida.

From Virtual Japan:

Tetsuya Ishida (石田徹也) was a Japanese artist working in Tokyo. He was born in June 16, 1973 in Yaizu City, Shizuoka Prefecture. He died May 23, 2005, at the age of 31. His paintings were known for their dark portrayal of Japanese life. The characters in his painting appear unhappy and often their bodies are in pieces or part of some machine or other object. The artist left behind about 180 works created during his 10 year art career.

You can view more of Tetsuya’s work over at toxel.com.

Village of Joy has put together a great list feauturing fifty strange building from across the planet. The one below (Nakagin Capsule Tower) reminds me of some of the buildings that appeared later in the awesome classic game “Transport Tycoon”:

D’oh the website broke. You can try the link here, but it says their bandwidth quota has been exceeded. Might possibly work next month?

Have a look at this sign:

Pretty basic bilingual sign, but the interesting thing? The other language (Welsh) actually reads: “I am not in the office at the moment. Please send any work to be translated”.  Hit this link via BBC News to read a few more and find out how this hilarious mistake happened.

Ah, ultra shiny cars. Something which never gets old. That’s why it’s a good thing that Global Motors brings us four great examples below:

(Here’s the links: Chrome SLR McLaren, Nissan GT-R in matte gold, Chrome Lambo LP640 and a Gold Plated 911).

I never knew. I’d heard of people had done it themselves (very passionate people), even how to do it (using mineral oil acquired from a veterinarian). Still it’s a damned neat (and very unique in a good way) way to go about cooling a computer. In a way it kind of reminds me of those pre-made refrigerator cases. Hardcore Computers is the company to turn to, and for $5560 (presumably USD) you too can have an über 1337 gaming rig.

For that money it comes with a tri-SLI nVIDIA graphics solution (it’d want to). Check it out via Hardcore Computers, and read this review by Maximum PC to learn more.

The title says it all, really - and the picture below. Honestly, there’s nothing more I can say. They’re cute and funny.
