Installation love

My general absence on the web these days is mostly due to my new found love for a new routine : 1) turn on computer 2) check email 3) turn off computer.  Save for the occasional skim of my Google Reader and some internet TV here and there I'm loving spending less time on the web.  With that said, there are some lovely installations that have stood out on my reader that I want to share.

This is my favourite! A massive steel sculpture of a desktop icon in New Zealand.  Stunning.  Via dudecraft

An interactive cloud installation made of thousands of light bulbs and pull strings.  Via Colossal 

AND this awesome musical swing set in Montreal!  I ride by this installation all the time, it's rarely unoccupied.  Via Colossal
