150 Netflix envelopes and counting, one woman is turning her laundry room into an ode to her rentals by mail. Sure, this may seem like a clever project, but what if we were to tell you that every one of those envelopes concealed a rotation of Big Momma's House and Battlefield Earth ? Huh? Then what would you think? (Probably that it's still awesome.)

Artist Felice Varini's installation in the town of Vercorin in the Swiss Alps is called Cercle et suite d'eclats . Varini projected the pattern onto the town from one angle, then painted over the projections, making the already kind of awesome town all circley-looking and therefore twice as awesome.

Butter doesn't just make everything you put it on taste delicious, it's also material for artistic creation — ready for viewing at county fairs across the country. Ironically, the beauty queens whose likeness are carved in butter probably avoid eating its fatty beauty at all costs.

Chrissy Conant's “Chrissy Skin Rug” is either a charming ode to Silence of the Lambs, or a disturbing metaphor. I'll assume it's a metaphor, but I'd much rather imagine her saying to guests, “You see, it puts the carpet cleaner on its skin, and it looks as clean as ever!” [Update: Typo and bad grammar corrected - sorry!]

Two Brazilian artists take up residence on the side of a building, using climbing gear to go from “room to room.” If rent keeps rising in NYC, I might just have to staple my bed across from a bagel shop.

2. [Tiago Primo, Installation Artist]: “They (passers-by) ask how much is the rent, tell me I’m going to fall, ask me if I have a room for rent… Some take pictures, wave and ask us to wave back, some talk to us…. One of the most curious (reactions) came from a person who thought we were dolls, that we were not real.”

Nedroid and his friend Emmy found that after drawing Bill Cosby separately, their Cosbies were nearly identical! So they set out to explore the “collective consciousness of Cosby” by getting 190 people to draw the Cosby. They expected sweaters and pudding pop references, but discovered that not all associated Bill with those two stereotypes — only 8 of 190 drawings had both the Cosby sweater and the Jell-O pudding pop.

CULTURE BUZZ: A New York City cabbie has collected 7,000 sketches from passengers. The driver, Fabio Peralta, gives his riders a pen and paper and asks them to draw whatever they please. Surprisingly, most oblige. So now I've got this and Cash Cab to look forward to.
