This is really incredible: Canadian artist Kristan Horton has recreated Stanley Kubrick's Dr. Strangelove frame by frame using only household objects. For example, an airplane might be a couple of knives splayed across a fork, a radar screen represented by a gas burner, or a mountain poking through the clouds might be represented by a beer bottle buried in a white plastic bag. But the result is extraordinarily accurate.

The project came into being through accidental brainwashing, according to Kristan:

I don’t have a television. When a friend dropped off a VHS version of the film to the studio, it became the only thing to watch on the monitor. In two and a half years, I watched the film over 700 times. My perception was saturated by the film, and this caused me to respond to it.

...which is admittedly pretty awesome genesis, but, you know, maybe you should buy a television if you're so hard-up for visual stimulus that you'll watch a single movie 700 times in a row.
