Crazy Room

The "Crazy Room" had random odds and ends just tacked onto the wall. I've seen this done before, but with items that might've had some significance, this just seemed completely random.

i wonder what motivates people to do this? it's kind of like the work of arthur tress..... he had a crazy philosophy about creating art like this in abandoned places.

Oh you DID find the "freak room"! Maybe I should surf the entire gallery before commenting...

How was this stuff tacked up?

Ack ... do you really want to know what kind of substance was used to tack that stuff to the walls? It may have been ... ewww.

Ewww wouldn't have held all these years. I thought this stuff was nailed in.

First hand research on how long Ewww sticks to walls, PB?

WAWAWAWAWAWAWAWA!!!!!!! 8`-)

Cool! Didn't know the Comments had a sound FX coordinator!

And next, this will be the first website to feature photos in wonderful panoramic Smell~O~Rama (I'm showing my age with that word)

Though I think we all know what 'ewww' smells like.

Hey, Puddleboy,
I think I damaged my monitor trying to "scratch-n-sniff"
ewwww

I have an extra monitor in my basement.

Ya need??? (LOL)

The next monitor I get is going to be one of those cool flat screen monitors, with Smell~O~Rama coming out of the speaker, but thanks for the generous offer, P.B.

I want to get a large flat screen monitor too (so I could see pictures of dead animals on a large screen? Maybe I should re-think this one LOL)

I have hugge pretty flat screen monitor. I speant my money for college on it-but hey who needs college when you've got a nicec Monitor?

Poisonousxbeauty, who needs college, when you can learn all you need from Professors Puddleboy and Lynne?

I'm still running the monitor that came with my first computer. I've been through three other towers, several mouses (meeses?) and I've lost count of how many printers I've had. Just had to buy a new printer two days ago. Late Saturday night, I went to print something, and it made all kinds of funky sounds, then not only ate the paper, it swallowed it!! There was paper fragments all inside the printer guts, so out the window it went. (LOL)

Professor Puddleboy

Thats ONE way to reboot something! Here at the help desk, we know that certain printers are MADE to be.....errr...."disposable".....

Ha yeah, forget college. lol.
Oh and my shop has over 30 printers in at, and presses, Imagine working a GIANT PRINTER 5 days a week for 6 hours with only a 25 minuet break...EEP!
(i guess it's worth it though because I get to go home to a nice computer screen to look at Motts fantastic photography, which, by the way is my SLIDESHOW BACKROUND.)

this looks a bit like a joseph beuys exhibition i went to in berlin.

this is very bizarre! i don't believe i've seen this kind of thing before.
kind of like a collage of.... stuff?!?

I used to work with a "mentally ill" man who did art similar to this. But my favorite piece by him was a sort of paper sculpture on a table in the window. It was an Aunt Jemima box with various folds and attached objects, and what looked like antennae. Every morning he would turn it in a certain direction and every night he'd turn it around again. I asked him why and he explained how turning it one way or another caused the sun to rise or set. He was a very nice and gentle old man who had become responsible for the daily rising and setting of the sun. Good old Alex...

i dont know bout u guys, but to me it looks like the bedroom wall of every band-obsessed kid at my school!

Some unknown artist's work. I see pieces like this on museum walls that sold for thousands of dollars. Ironic, heh?

Some form of art therapy, or just something done by dumb kids and vandals?

It looks to have been done by a homeless person residing in the hospital after it closed, the items looked like they came from the curbside.

Someone had alot of time on their hands!

Modern Art

I can't recognize a SINGLE item on that wall !
(And I spent WAY too much work time looking!)
Love the shots, Motts !
