The Camera Lucida is an optical device that was designed by Sir William Hyde Wollaston and used a prism to project an image onto paper for tracing. Some claim that many of the Old Masters used them but they now are only found in antique stores and on EBay. Come Pablo Garcia and Golan Levin who recently teamed up to design the NeoLucida with the belief that it will "profoundly change how people see, how they draw, and how they think about art."

Your Own 3D Head on a Pez Dispenser http://www.juxtapoz.com/current/your-own-3d-head-on-a-pez-dispenser http://www.juxtapoz.com/current/your-own-3d-head-on-a-pez-dispenser Your Own 3D Head on a Pez Dispenser
Last month, we showed you the 3D printing photo booth that was open in Tokyo, and we speak for most of you by saying it was a winner. Now, Hot Pop Factory has found a way to scan your head with an XBox Kinect and print your noggin out with a 3D printer, thus making a 3D model of you. And after you print your head out multiple times, and your friends' heads, too, you will have a sea of PEZ dispenser tops to share.

Angelo Plessas "Mirage Machines" http://www.juxtapoz.com/current/angelo-plessas-qmirage-machinesq http://www.juxtapoz.com/current/angelo-plessas-qmirage-machinesq Angelo Plessas
A bit of interaction for us today on Juxtapoz.com. Bubblebyte.org is pleased to present Mirage Machines, a solo exhibition of works by Athens-based artist Angelo Plessas. Since the late 90s, Angelo Plessas’ work has been strongly reflecting and mastering the language of the Internet through the creation of websites as artworks. So what that means for you, me, us is that we get to play and interact with Plessas' creations from the past few years.

Depth Mapping Paintings by Kazuki Takamatsu http://www.juxtapoz.com/current/depth-mapping-paintings-by-kazuki-takamatsu http://www.juxtapoz.com/current/depth-mapping-paintings-by-kazuki-takamatsu Depth Mapping Paintings by Kazuki Takamatsu
We have written about artist Kazuki Takamatsu on the site before, but seeing the work in person at the Scope Fair in Miami, it was some of our favorite pieces we have seen in quite some time. He creates stunning images of what might best be described as semi-erotic, childish Lolita girls in a dreamlike 3-dimensional fantasy haze.

Lindsay, your sophomore-year crush, may not have realized how much attention and pupose went into putting "Girlfriend" and "Just Like Heaven" back to back on that tape you tossed to her and couched as "just some cool songs" as she dropped you off after group study at the library. But that was years ago, and that tape and the heartbreak are long gone. Enter Mixtape.
