Kozyndan’s “Uprisings” painting (look closely, it’s not a wave, it’s a bunch of bunnies!!!) has been turned into a lovely bookend made by sculptor Julie B. [via]
The idea to turn the artwork into an actual bookend came from Munky King toymakers and will be released in an edition of 10. So obviously, supplies are limited which is a shame because this is something that I think would sell like mad.

I really don’t even think they bother trying to make sense in Japan. As long as the product’s being shown with some sort of Japanese celebrity, I guess that’s all that matters to them. SUCCESS.

This video made me so happy! And it solidifies my thoughts about getting a camera that can shoot at high frame rates. [via]

Seriously, Japanese people know entertainment!!! Watch as this chimp thoroughly enjoys this magic trick show. [via]
Does Japan just have really crazy TV programming? Or is this part of a larger show? If I go to Japan what station do I turn into to watch chimps enjoying magic shows? :P

I don’t speak or read Japanese, so if anybody wants to help translate the details of this video, please feel free to enlighten me in the comments.
Anyway, from what I gather, this is a music video by Alva Noto called “Unitxt u_08-1″ with the voice of Anne-James Chaton. The video was directed by Carsten Nicolai.

I really want to make myself a light bulb lantern. It only takes a traditional Japanese lantern and an industrial duct hose, both of which are incredibly cheap to get. [via]
