Collaborative art car build at Maker Faire Austin

At the upcoming Maker Faire Austin, October 20-21, art car hero Harrod Blank will help visitors transform a Toyota Matrix into a music-themed artwork on wheels. Blank is perhaps best known for his Camera Van, seen here. Check out the announcement on the MAKE: blog for suggestions on music-related detritus that you can bring to contribute to the group build! From the MAKE: blog post:

The art car is going to be featuring images from album covers, sheet music, photos, guitar picks, and more. We are looking for your donations--get creative and bring that box of old music memorabilia to the HEYA Activity Pavilion and join the fun!

Here is a funny art car I photographed in Spring Green Wisconsin in August 2007:

Suggestion: Hack a couple of old tone arms to make windshield wipers.

I've always wanted to cover an old VW bug in used breast implants.
