Fear And Bending In Brooklyn

It had never occurred to me before seeing this image, but yeah, Bender makes an excellent Hunter S. Thompson. (Jared Wright for Bottleneck Gallery's Gizmos and Gadgets show)

Adventure Time: Mathematical, Mashupmatical


I am new to Adventure Time. It's a show that I continually saw referenced on my feeds and by artists I follow, but I'd never seen it until the past two weeks when I decided to see what everyone was so enamored by. Now Jake the Dog and Finn the Human are stuck in my head and I decided to look back at what I missed. Consider this a pop culture tribute to the Land of Ooo. Above: Glob of Thrones by Dan Hipp. Finn wearing his Jake armor is a nice touch.

Go-Go-Gadget Commands



Gadget Industries top secret gadget activation voice commands by Dave Perillo for Bottleneck Gallery's  upcoming Gizmos and Gadgets show. What is Inspector Gadget's backstory anyway? Is he just a happier Robocop? A blissed out Wolverine who volunteered to be transformed? Who made him?

Pop culture and history collide in Peter Adamyan's Star Wars portraits of Hitler and Washington for WWA Gallery’s Creepy Cute show.

Shockingly, I don't think I've ever see Hitler literally as Darth Vader.

Wil Wheaton's Last Supper


So Wil Wheaton is the son of God. Huh. Artist Wayne Dorrington isn't saying he is for sure, but, well, he did this, based on his show TableTop. You be the judge. List of disciples at his site (Geekdad via John Farrier)

They Might Be Klingons


This hit me right in my nerd spot. Who know there was a Klingon/They Might Be Giants crossover? Anyway the song starts at 2:20, but watch the whole thing.

Deep Space Nine Was Once Terok Nor
Now It's Deep Space Nine not Terok Nor
Many Stardates Gone Since Ol Terok Nor
Saw Cardassian Blows On A B'Joran "nose"

Every Gorn That Lives On Terok Nor,
Knows Its Deep Space Nine, Not Terok Nor
So If You Plan To Blow-Up Terok Nor
You'd Better Start At Deep Space Nine.
