I appreciate the counter-re-purposing of this object by Oscar Diaz. He made the candles to fit a standard E27 bulb fitting. I also like his calendar (concept?), which uses the controlled spread of an ink blot to depict the date. In the project statement, he describes how this calendar does not "signal" the passing of time, but gives a true sense of elapsed time by taking advantage of a slow physical process.

Jason Schwartzman parodies MTV Cribs as Louis XVI in the Palace de Versailles. A beautiful example of sacrilege and iconoclasm. In related Schwartzman/fashion news, I really like the photo shoot he did with the fashion house Band of Outsiders. Click through the image below and browse the photostream for more.
