Re: Playing with Lego
LOL I was looking for the delete thread button on that one...
Anyway someone was having fun, that's cool.

Re: Playing with Lego
Ok, clearly I lack a playful imagination...but what was the point of that post?
Is the author making fun of new york using LEGO? Or was he saying he misses New York using LEGO? Or are these images he seen in the mess of LEGOs his children left on the floor?
Abstract art confuses me so much.

Re: Playing with Lego
It's just a bit of creative fun. Fair enough if it doesn't interest you though.

Wasn't so much that it wasn't interesting...I like LEGO too...I just didn't get it.

Re: Playing with Lego
It doesn't really have a story behind it other than what he's written. The artist was thinking about New York (presumably where he is originally from, or once lived), so he picked up the Lego and started to create the impressions that he's photographed in the article. Playful, creative fun really.
Re: Playing with Lego
I thought it was neat and I enjoyed looking at the pictures. He/She is a very creative individual. Looking at it also made me feel like I was getting a forward from a friend in my email, so I started looking for the Archive button. It was rather funny.

Re: Playing with Lego
Fair enough. I've just grown old and cranky I suppose.
