I saw something interesting over at designboom: two guys by the names of Mick Farrell and Cliff Haynes have come up with a straw camera.
An analogue device filled with drinking straws. Creating excellent pics, I think. Gives one the feeling of possessing bee – vision, all of a sudden (I am aware, bees have a quite different view than this, but I still like the thought).
I love that approach – experimenting with simple things, getting some amazing results.

As you see, I am still working backward through the reader.
What does “analogue device” mean ? Simply a sort of old-fashioned film camera?

yep, non-electrical, non-digital. Like a simple pin-hole camera…

You are right, it’s this kids toy, isn’t it? You are right – the background of it was also exactly like this pics.

Do you remember Lite Brite? A lightboard with colored pegs that you plugged into the holes to make art? That’s what these remind me of, super-sophisticated Lite Brites. Though I like the idea that it’s how bees see things, a very creative observation. 🙂

I loved Lite Brite! And you are right – it does remind me of the effects in these pictures.
