Weekly Website Wednesday: ModBlog

I have an interest in tattoos and body modification, but I’m such a fickle bastard, I’m afraid of having anything permanent done to my body. That’s why I live vicariously through the people featured in BMEzine’s ModBlog. (WARNING: GRAPHIC PHOTOS)

I might get an Starland Vocal Band tattoo one day, though.

Weekly Website Wednesday: Epic Exquisite Corpse

epic exquisite corpse link pictureAn exquisite corpse is a collaborative drawing, where one person starts a drawing and then folds over the paper so only a small, unrecognizable portion of the drawing can be seen, then another person continues the drawing from that portion, folds over the paper and passes it on to another person, and so on and so on, until there isn’t any paper left to be drawn on. The paper is then unfolded to reveal a freaky, mutant drawing that is a combination of everyone’s styles.

Epic Exquisite Corpse is a huge version of this. It’s already huge with over 73,000 sections already drawn, but that’s out of a total of a million possible sections, so it’s going to be insane when it’s finished.

Anyhoo, go draw your own section. IT’S FUN!

Weekly Website Wednesday: Vacuumland

This week’s website is a very strange community.

It was through this website that I learned that my grandmother’s old vacuum cleaner was actually a highly sought-after collector’s item.

If you want to learn more about your vacuum cleaner, this is the place to go.
