We're always fascinated when the surreal and the practical intersect. That would explain our past delight with Blendie, a blender that responds to growling noises and is included in the upcoming group show, Untethered.

Opening at Eyebeam next week in Manhattan the exhibit is promises a myriad of creative curiosities.

With 15 artists on display, this season's offerings include a a photocopier that reads the night sky; a PDA turned guitar; and a piano that plays the Internet. Kind of sounds like a page out of CH.

The curator took cue from the industrial design of the building to inspire...
Diem Chau and Jen Stark: In Effect
"In Effect," another well-curated exhibition by the good folks at OKOK Gallery opens tomorrow and features new works and a collaboration from Diem Chau and Jen Stark, who both use common materials and turn them into subversive and sometimes hypnotizing works. Apparently we have a collective infatuation with the art of paper cutting, if our videos on Chen Hang Feng and Tom Gallant are...
John Arsenault: Filthy Gorgeous
For a photographer whose work is full of the best kind of contradictions—fiction and fact, banality and exoticism, sexuality and domesticity—the title "Filthy Gorgeous" is apt for John Arsenault's upcoming solo show.
