And speaking of gigundo pixels…

• Duncan Wilson has created pixelnotes, a wallpaper constructed from Post-It-style chunks of paper, four deep, each of which is a different color.  "Pixelated formations and shapes develop according to our patterns of use."  Groovy.  See also his funky Cup Communicators (heh), as well as his PSP cocoons.  (And I’m envious that he gets to work with someone named "Sirkka Hammer."  That’s the kind of name that belongs on the Photoshop splash screen.)

• Krazydad (Jim Bumgardner) turns vintage sci-fi covers into pixels, arranging them into a "coverpop."  Covers are arranged horizontally by time, and vertically by average hue.  Jim provides an interesting backstory (combining Flash, Processing, ImageMagick, and more) and visuals here.
