Developed by American artist David Bowen, this ‘fly tweet’ device sends Twitter messages based on the activities of a collection of houseflies.
Living inside an acrylic sphere along with a computer keyboard, the insects move and interact inside their home, landing over the buttons
on the keyboard. When a particular key is triggered by the flies, the corresponding character is entered into a Twitter text box. When 140
characters are reached or ‘ENTER’ is triggered, the message containing the accumulated characters is broadcast via twitter in real-time.
Follow @flycolony for real-time updates. I think this one is my favourite.

Singapore-based artist Keng Lye meticulously produces three-dimensional works of art with acrylics and epoxy resin that lie somewhere between painting and sculpture. Using a technique originated by Riusuke Fukahori, Lye manages to produce the illusion of different animals swimming in water. The time-consuming process involves pouring resin into a bowl and then painting on top of it with acrylics, layer by layer.
