Eurogamer.net - TrackMania: "Developed by newcomer Nadeo and due out in Europe this November 28th from publishing upstart Digital Jesters, TrackMania is a racing game construction kit where the next part won't cost you �4.99 and take two hours to rescue from the moulded plastic wrapping. It's split into two distinct modes, Challenge and Race, and the common goal is earn medals and unlock the next track by breaking the developer's lap record. The difference being that, in Challenge mode at least, you design your own route from A to B.

Using a simple top-down, rotatable 3D view and mouse controls, you can drag and drop your idea towards fruition, carefully plotting straights, sharp and slight turns, speed pads and jumps so that your car can make it from Start to Finish past any requisite checkpoints in the shortest possible time."

Artist turns animals into everyday objects

Ananova - A Chilean artist is making a name for herself with an exhibition in which stuffed animals are transformed into household objects. Artworks on display include a chick turned into a lamp, and 'sheep bag' - a lamb carcass fitted with handles. Artist Caterina Purdy says her exhibition at the Experimental Arts Centre in Santiago is intended to be humorous but also makes a serious point. She told Las Ultimas Noticias online: 'It is possible to see my work as something scary, but I find it beautiful. 'There is also irony and humour in my objects as well as a criticism of the way animals are treated by society.'"

Josh Nimoy @ ITP - BallDroppings

Josh Nimoy @ ITP - BallDroppings : "BallDroppings is an addicting and noisy play-toy. It can also be seen as an emergence game. My brother Marc takes this software seriously as an audio-visual performance instrument. Balls fall from the top of the screen and bounce off the lines you are drawing with the mouse. The balls make a percussive and melodic sound, whose pitch depends on how fast the ball is moving when it hits the line."
