Photographic sculptures, giant graffiti, & more

• Gwon O-Sang creates intriguing three-dimensional sculptures (full-size people, vehicles, pets) from flat photos (c-prints).  An essay on the site shares more details. [Via]
• The NYT features an audio slideshow, with accompanying article, "In the Holy Caves of India." [Via Mary Huber]
• Julia Fullerton-Batten has skills.  ‘Nuff said. [Via]
• PicLens is a brilliant little Mac utility for delivering "an immersive full-screen experience for viewing photos on the Web."  It’s ridiculously easy to use with image collections on Flickr, Google, etc.: clicking a little image overlay invokes a full-screen slideshow.  I used it today to enjoy Vincent Benoit’s photostreams on Flickr.

• High-speed photography: Nike blows stuff up real good with their new Juice ball. [Via]
• To flash or not to flash: that is the night photography question.  Consider the results. ;-)
• Not photography, but what the hey: Street artist MOMO writes his (?) name the width of Manhattan. [Via]
