Daniel Arsham new relic release, by cmodart on Apr 26, 2015 17:09:23 GMT 1, I noticed this on Instagram today. Looks like a new relic piece is being released. I have been intrigued by the camera as I dabble in photography, and I am curious on forum member opinion of these conceptual art sculptures, the significance, and overall interest
Thanks, Aaron

Done so it looks like a happy, smiling face.
Strange choice - much prefer the mobile phone or camera.

Very good Done so it looks like a happy, smiling face. Strange choice - much prefer the mobile phone or camera. Don't know about the smiling face. Let me know when it's 4:20...
Origins: Those who pause to examine the print advertising of the day for watches and clocks will sooner or later be struck by a seemingly startling realization: the hands in just about every timepiece's ad will be set to ten minutes past ten. Yet this is not the supernatural quietly at work via synchronicity to instill in us a reverence for a particularly important time of day; the "coincidence" is attributable to no more than the good marketing practice of presenting the manufacturer's name or logo to the buying public in the fashion most pleasing to the eye.
The hands of clocks and watches shown in advertisements are most commonly set to 10 minutes past ten in an effort to best frame the manufacturer's logo or emblem, which is often displayed on the faces of timepieces just below the 12. Those who grew up watching television in the 1960s were subject to the myriad of "It takes a licking but keeps on ticking" Timex ads that burned into their consciousness both that particular spot on a watch face for a logo and the 10:10 position for the watch's hands.
Before the 10:10 hand position became somewhat the industry's standard, some watches whose logos appeared above the 6 would be displayed in advertisements with their hands at the 20 past 8 position (8:20), the timepiece's hands once again being used to frame the manufacturer's mark. This practice, however, has mostly passed out of favor since downward pointing hands are now seen as undesirable because they make the timepiece appear to frown and thus impart a negative message to prospective buyers.

The only thing I can think is maybe he has more demand for his work now. I noticed the production was a much bigger scope for the new relic film so i'm sure that wasn't cheap. Judging from the price jump the next one will be in the $500 range so maybe i'll just try and track down the camera on the secondary market since one can be had for not much more.
