Artisanal Chewing Gum Factory (and so much more)



Alas, it's too late to participate in Bompas & Parr's Artisanal Chewing Gum Factory:
Each visitor will be able to choose and combine 200 familiar and unusual flavours including iris, Hendricks Gin and tonic, curry and beer yeast. In total 40,000 flavour combinations are possible.
Truly outlandish combinations were possible. At least you can participate vicariously by watching the video below:









Coming next month is another event that sounds like great fun - - Taste O Rama at the Harley Gallery:
Coming soon to the Harley Gallery, Bompas & Parr will show Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom in Welbeck Abbey's Titchfield Library. Guests will be taken on a trip through the secretive underground rooms at Welbeck before watching the film presented in Taste 'o' Rama - with spectators able to enjoy key moments of the movie with their mouths.
(Monkey brain's anyone?)



You can read about Bompas and Parr's previous culinary adventures at their site, including the Sugar Cave:



Emperor Vespasian's notorious Shield of Minerva dish:



The Ziggurat of Flavour, Occult Jam ("a small triumph over mortality"), Surreal House Dinner, and more. Via these sites.

Link roundup

1. Comment and win a plush baby vampire.

2. At Entertainment Earth: Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade Holy Grail/magnetic paperclip holder.

3. How to turn a Mike Mignola drawing into a three-dimensional sculpture:
I had to cheat angles, add planes where they wouldn't normally work, and generally throw all the knowledge I have of three-dimensional realistic anatomy out the window.

Indiana Jones: Temple of the Forbidden Eye as a Left 4 Dead level



Indiana Jones: Temple of the Forbidden Eye as a Left 4 Dead level. The video even includes the short film you watch as you wait in line. For the full effect, have someone stand behind you and shake your chair like a madman.
