“Back to the Future” portraits. This photographer is given a vintage photo and uses every tool at her disposal to replicate that photo - including the people in the old photos. The result is a fun double-take, seeing people who seem to have aged 20 or more years in the blink of an eye. One photo is NSFW.

Football Trick Shots

Two thoughts: First, how many takes were needed for these? Second, at what point, if any, does this switch from demonstrating to showing off? Cool stuff, though.

Don’t even reply. A web-based and more mean-spirited version of the very popular Letters From A Nut book series. This web site targets Craiglist posters with the sole intent of making them angry and say rude things via email, and then posting the results.

Music Philosophy. Song lyrics turned into mostly typographical deep thought posters.

GeoNote. An App for Android phones that will remind of a task based on location rather than time. For example, you can set this app to remind you to pick up your shirts when you are near the dry cleaner.

This is not porn. A collection of mostly candid photos of celebrities. Some of my favorites have to include Nancy Reagan sitting on Mr. T’s lap, James Dean attempting to punch Rock Hudson in the crotch, Salvadore Dali walking his pet anteater out of a subway terminal, and a young Stephen Hawking standing next to his bride on their wedding day. There’s tons and tons more, and you can even select to see all collected photos of a particular celebrity.

The “Could-Have-Been” Love Story. Two classmates communicate over IM about recent goings-on in their life. We see each as they type out what they want to say to one another, only to self-censor themselves; erasing and re-typing their thoughts, each time diluting it more and more until little remains of their actual feelings for one another. Cute, sad, and funny.
