The World as a Cylinder

These distorted panoramic photographers are by Randy Scott Slavin for his Alternate Perspective series. He can take up to a hundred pictures of a scene to build up a 360 degree image before stitching them together to make a stereographic projection.

Taking a bad-ass self portrait isn't as easy as it looks on everyone else's Facebook accounts, it requires a flattering angle, no incriminating objects or locations in shot and above all, no unsuspecting photobombers.

So. WHEN are they going to make this a mandatory Olympic sport, or at the very least an event that every city in the world gets to participate in. Think of it, apart from the willing participants, it'd be the ultimate spectator sport.

Think of it as pr0n for powerpoint. The stuff that makes mathematicians hot under the collar, and in this gallery the medium has been lovingly subverted to the cause of lolz. it's enough for the inner-nerd in you to explode.

Fierce female abdominals are always going to be a divisive topic to debate. Some of us love them, others loathe them. Frankly I don't mind either way so long as the owner of those amazing abs can make a good sammich.

You like chicks, right?? Course you do. How about guns? You like them? Think they're cooler than an eskimo's ice box? Damn right you do. What if we combined the two? Well check out this desirable duo...

These printers have identity issues, or thirsts for unusual substances. or are they part of the skynet uprising. Oviously though, some of these machines seem to be saying whatever the hell they like.

These cosplayers are mos def doing it right, from sexy femme costumes to just plain badass outfits that look just like the characters they're based on. These people are full of win.

So, just to put this all in perspective, the pope (god's representative on Earth) quits his job, lightning strikes the Vatican, then scientists cure aids. Is god trying to tell us something? Ponder that while lolzing at these pics.

I wish I knew what bait to use to catch gorgeous beauties like these! Like they say, it's not the how deep you fish, it's how well you wiggle your worm!

It's not a gallery dedicated to a compulsive truth distorter but something far more surreal. If you ever visit Tokyo you might catch a glimpse of this girl if you are lucky laying down the foundations of her very own art form. Weird.
