Art made from slices of an executed prisoner
Here’s a series of truly eerie light paintings made with slices of an executed prison inmate who donated his body to science. Joseph Paul Jernigan was executed on August 5, 1993 at exactly 12:31am, hence the name of the project. Using his body to create these images perhaps afford him a bit of post-humous redemption.

It’s funny that as alienated as we are from animals in this modern world, people still feel compelled to draw them as if it were one of our core instincts.

Surreal sculptures by Ben Wheele
Honestly, writing about art (and music, for that matter) is kind of an awful task because good art speaks for itself. Such is the case with Ben Wheele’s surreal sculptures and videos.

Strip away the cookie monster vocals and downtuned, distorted guitars, it’s hard to imagine death metal still reading as death metal, but 8-bit duo Dr. Zilog manage to do just that. The Floridian sound-card tweakers make some pretty amazing original, NES tunes that are strangely compelling, catchy, and actually quite metal.
