Lovely! Reminds me a bit of Jen Starck's work.

Also? I want ice cream now.

This is stunning! It drives me crazy that the corners just don't get done, though.

Also, that look of relief on the woman's face as she pours the last cup of paint in the Paint Montage video is so interesting. Until that moment I couldn't tell whether it was as delicate an operation for them as it seems like it would be for me, or they didn't really care if it came out exactly a certain way, or they just had it down to a science and didn't have to worry about it.

I really like the pieces that get created by this. I bet you could do something similar with furniture and have it come out looking magnificent. Seems kind of strange that only one dude gets the credit though as it looks to me like it is more of a group improvisational thing.

Why are they all wearing "American Yankee Blue Jeans" from the 80's?

These are great. It would be really, really cool to see this done with a hexagonal pedestal or something, too.
