The Japan-based artist creates incredible driftwood sculptures. Each of his human-shaped figures can both mesmerize and scare you. The artist manages to create an uneasy feeling using nothing but wood and you can be sure, that if you�d stumble upon one of these sculptures at night, you�d go sleepless for days.

A&R Legend John Kalodner Talks Aerosmith and Why Rock Won't Reach the Masses Again

Legendary A&R man John Kalodner, center, and a few friends. Courtesy John Kalodner A Whitesnake medallion is the only memento John Kalodner kept from his remarkable A&R career.  He keeps it in front of the desk and computer in his airy Hollywood Hills home, commemorating Whitesnake�s self-titled 1987 album, which featured the band�s epic pop-metal hits �Here I Go Again� and �Still of the Night.� It sold more than 8 million copies. Kalodner did A&R for it, which means he helped develop the band's sound and vision, as he also did for the post-rehab Aerosmith LPs that sold a bazillion copies during the 1980s and '90s.

Nightmarish Sculptures of H.P. Lovecraft�s Terrifying Cosmic Entities

Image
�Lovecraft Tormented� wall sculpture Like many of you oh-so-cool Dangerous Minds readers I am a collector of a great many THINGS. From records to books and a slew of action figures, my house is a mini-museum full of cool THINGS. I also happen to know that a number of our regular visitors to DM seem to have a thing for anything that associated with the great American horror writer H.P. Lovecraft. Which leads me to my post for today which features a number of intricate sculptures depicting some of Lovecraft�s eldritch entities such as �Dagon,� a creature that first made its appearance in Lovecraft�s short story of the same name from 1917; everyone�s favorite octopus-headed cosmic being, �Cthulhu�; Pickman�s model, and the nutty Nyarlathotep among others. I�m just aching to bring a few of these critters into my own menagerie of mayhem� Some of the sculptures in this post are available for purchase.
