So Not clear about the concept...

           Reminds me of this New Yorker cover, July 30, 2007.

Just so you don't make the same mistake...I

I did... I put "Boulle" in all my search engines.
It turns out 
Mr. Pierre Boulle wrote this book, Planet of the Apes. 

Now I get notified everytime it appears for sale. Hmm. How to fix. Shrug, CM

If you watched the opening season of Mad Men did you see the mini commercial???




 There I was soaking up all the mid century design and along came a commercial using mini furniture.

Pretty funny in a show about an innovative ad firm.
The plot was a guy walks up to his buddies in the park who were enjoying a ball game on tv.
 

 Which was his cell phone sitting on a miniature piece of living room furniture.
He took his nachos out of a mini stove.


 And opened his mini refrigerator to toss his buddy a mini can of beer!
l
Illustrating how the picture on his cell phone was as good as being in his own livingroom.
 
OK! Good add, point made by 1 800 watch tv. Made me sit up and notice. Would love to see the guy pitching that one...

What does this remind me of? A 2009 post I did of Mitchymoo's work from flickr.
Someone else used cellphones as tvs. Do you remember who? Hmmm I think PDR made an ipod station that looked like a tv wall unit, I better go check. 
 Thanks, CM

How you know your family gets you...

When they hand you your Easter present and say, "I thought you could make something with the cage... You know... for your houses?"
