Remixes of "Identifying Wood"

Remember the cover of the book Identifying Wood, which I featured last week?

An anonymous commenter pointed me to a FARK challenge to remix the book cover. FARK got the idea from this entry in the Make blog, who in turn got the inspiration for the entry from my post, which I built around a photo from my friend Miss Fipi Lele.

(I’m quite honoured that the folks at Make check out my blog!)

Here are some of my favourite results:

  • Hey Accordion Guy. I'm fredfred, friend of Ms. Fipi Lele and I was the one who sourced the original image. And we're both from Toronto -- I actually saw the book in a little stack of used books for sale on Queen St. W. -- thought it was funny, and then googled for the cover and sent it to Ms. Lele.

    It's so great that my little thought-moment during a walk around town with a friend went to this chain of fun.

    Cheers.
