…Histograms can be art?

Skyline Histogram

Believe it or not, the horizontal lines on the left of this picture actually hide the skyline on the right.

Simply view the histogram of the horizontal lines, and the skyline appears. (A histogram is a bar graph representing all the tones in an image.)

Creative.

…Audio Bombing is the new graffiti?

Audio Bombing

Audio Bombing is a musical graffiti project that uses magnetic audio tape to transmit tags. By using alternative mediums, audio graffiti can be hidden in places where traditional graffiti cannot. An interesting concept, but I think it’s a bit more artsy then it is street (though I still think Boston would try to dismantle it).

…It’s Easter Sunday: Easter Eggs?

Brian The Wonder Yak

Above is Brian The Wonder Yak, an easter egg in Final Cut Pro.

Easter eggs are often associated with a scavenger hunt of sorts where children hunt for colored eggs and candy; but Easter eggs are also the hidden messages or features that designers hide in things like movies, music, computer programs and video games for grown-ups to hunt for. It’s a way of giving the creator some artistic expression, and users a chance to feel like they found some buried treasure. If you’re looking for an alternative to the holiday hunt, (or you just don’t like hard boiled eggs and candy), then check out the Easter Egg Archive, and go on a hunt of your own.

Though no information is given about the origin of the idea or who contributes, the myriad of images on the site are sure to give you a pretty good idea of what wall tattooing is all about.
