Brian Dettmer’s surgical book sculptures, meticulously carved into vintage volumes and hand-cut one page at a time.
This is simply one of the greatest creations, repurposed or not, that I have ever seen. I can not fathom how long this would take. Bravo.
Hey Kids! Measles are Marvelous!
At least that’s what a new anti-vaccination children’s book would have you believe. Outright lying wasn’t enough for the anti-vaccination movement. Deceiving parents just wouldn’t do it. Now they are aiming square at the kids.
From the book’s description:
This book takes children aged 4 – 10 years on a journey of discovering about the ineffectiveness of vaccinations, while teaching them to embrace childhood disease, heal if they get a disease, and build their immune systems naturally.
“… build their immune systems naturally”? Do you know WHY we developed vaccines for measles? Because measles is not marvelous (just look at the symptoms).
Just like this book, it can be deadly.
Cant’ make this stuff up. Head -> desk.

“ Of course anyone who truly loves books buys more of them than he or she can hope to read in one fleeting lifetime. A good book, resting unopened in its slot on a shelf, full of majestic potentiality, is the most comforting sort of intellectual wallpaper. ”
