The Lumen Urbs project projects pictograms and imagery onto a blank miniature city to bring life to four areas of urban activity.

When we saw these, we couldn’t help but think that at last that someone has invented a solution for hungry toddler artists. They’re even made of healthy ingredients.

Check more photos and explanations of the ingredients and process used on Luxirare.com

Whilst looking at shots of vodka isn’t exactly at the top of our activities list (although its above watching the washing machine spin), this Bloody Brain Shooter concoction had us compelled to stare.

Bloody-Brain-Shooter

Mixing acidic lime juice and irish cream creates the curdling brain-like strands and un-tasty as it looks, sounds like it goes down a dream.

I love these illustrations converted to target posters featuring a slew of movie and game baddies. A simple and effective idea by Olly Moss.

Previously posted Recycled Parts Robots producer Paul Loughridge has also created a lunchbox based on the classic Airstream.

Airstream-Lunchbox

It is a Vintage Heavy Duty aluminum lunch box with a set of “doubles” of an old Tonka dump truck and a pair of propane tanks (…35mm film canisters). It sits at 15.5″ long x 8.5 tall” x 5.5 wide”

I love this concept design for the PSP! It doesn’t look like its as practical to use as a gaming device than the current design with controls on either side of the screen. But its as stylish as hell and works as an excellently simple screen for your movies when closed.

I’m not that bothered about cupcakes, although they taste nice and sometimes look really nice. But these shark fin ones are awesome!

Michael Hughes buys souvenirs as he travels and takes photos of them in place of the real thing. A simple idea and fun to see.
