Clock made from a recycled turntable
I have a thing for vinyl, so I don’t ever see myself recycling my record player. But I really like the idea Stuff Made From Stuff had. They’ve turned a Sanyo turntable into a fashionable looking wall clock. In fact, when you browse through their online shop, you will find all kinds of funny recycled clocks, such as the Hard-Drive clock, the Old Magnetic Tape Reel clock, and the Mac G3 Computer Motherboard clock (including harddrive and mouse). What a fine way of making use of outdated spare parts.

Lots of her motifs look like minimalist doodling interpretations of characters from the Arabian Nights or the Pharaonic period. I would really love to see these turned into t shirt motifs or printed on postcards, so I can send them around to my friends. Read more

The closer we look, the more abstract the sculpture becomes. Read more
