V.O.W N°26 // Melvin the Machine photo © HEYHEYHEY V.O.W N°26 (27 June - 3 July 2011) We think of innovation and invention as highly engineered, complex systems that are built by some mad scientist in a remote space. The process results in long and layered equations, drawings and an endless source of references illustrated in a step by step process to further explain the construction of the device or machine.

British Rubbish: Shadow Art Tim Noble and Sue Webster use garbage to make crazy sculptures with recognisable shadows for their series British Rubbish. Share Words as Images by Ji Lee Whenever we read a news story, book, letter, or any other form of text our brain relates specific words with previously seen images. By accessing our past memories, like a hard drive, our brain is able to create a visual illustration simply out of words. Taking this one step further, Ji Lee eliminates the need for our brain to do this process. Ji Lee takes popular words and brings them to life by adding a sense of character, fun and playfulness to them. “When we were children, letters were like fun toys. Today we will feature creative examples from Ji’s book titled “Word As Image.” “This project started nearly twenty years ago as an assignment in my typography class at art school. Anyone can create a word as image. Note: All Rights Reserved by Ji Lee. Check out our previous articles: Did you enjoy this article?

10 Monsters That Inspire Dread Weird Stuff Mysterious creatures of the night – the stuff of nightmares! This list takes a look at ten monsters from history, myth and folklore that ought to scare the pants off us. I have tried to restrict the list to creatures that have not been presented on Listverse before, to keep things interesting. The Cockatrice can cause death with a single glance. The manticore is a legendary creature similar to the Egyptian sphinx. The kelpie is a supernatural water horse from Celtic folklore, that is believed to haunt the rivers and lochs of Scotland and Ireland. Not only is the soucouyant scary – it is probably the most bizarre entry here. Umibōzu is a spirit in Japanese folklore. A hidebehind is a nocturnal fearsome critter from American folklore that preys upon humans that wander the woods, and was credited for the disappearances of early colonial loggers when they failed to return to camp. Cats are meant to be furry and cute – but not when it is five feet high and shoots fireballs!
