Cat 5 Porn [PIC]
Created by Los Angeles-based artist Kasey McMahon, this remarkable piece of art, called “Connected,” was made using mostly Cat 5 (Ethernet) cables wrapped over a steel frame. Apparently, the piece is a self-portrait of the artist, but I doubt anyone here could actually see a resemblance with her, or with any other human being for [...]

So, being loyal Geeks are Sexy readers, you’ve surely all tried making some artery-jamming Krispy Kreme bacon burgers since we’ve posted about them almost 2 years ago, right? And if you didn’t, you probably thought that these burgers were the ultimate in unhealthiness, and rightly so. But lo and behold folks, the king is dead. [...]
Super Modern Art Heroes: Interview with Josh Siegel
To my generation, superheroes are more than just figures confined to the pages of a comic book, they’re pervasive in our culture and interactions. I feel that art reflects the artist’s culture and their thoughts on their surrounding, so it’s only natural for modern artists to mix classic artistic styles with our beloved superhero culture. [...]
Will the Nook checkmate the Kindle?
Barnes & Noble has unleashed twin weapons in its battle with the Kindle and iPad: the company is updating its Nook reader to offer both chess and sudoko games! OK, OK, that’s not the main selling point. The firm is also adding an “experimental web browser” which will run in the main grayscale window rather [...]
Happy Alternate Earth Day!
Okay, so technically there is no such thing. But stay with me a moment and let me explain. So I totally missed the ball yesterday for Earth Day. I’m sorry, Earth. It’s nothing personal. It’s not like I was dumping garbage around my back yard and leaking batteries into the soil. No, I took a [...]

The Stats Behind a Birthday Match
As part of an icebreaking event at the latest meeting of my local social media enthusiasts group Brrism, the 30 or so people on hand were asked to compare birthdays. It turned out that three pairs of people each shared a birthday. As unlikely as that may sound, nobody is calling Ripley’s Believe It Or [...]
YouTube Takes Down Video About YouTube Takedowns
Many of you probably would never have heard of the World War II film Downfall if it weren’t for the slew of hilarious parodies that popped up in the past couple of years. They all use the same clip: a scene in the film where Hilter goes on a furious tirade upon realizing that the [...]
