Welcome to Morbid Tendencies

Rudolpho the Mutant Reindeer
Festively dressed in holiday attire, this puppy could light up a freeway if those noses start to glow. Long floppy legs mean proper monitor- or shelf-sitting attitude.


Guten Morgen Kinderkatze (a.k.a. Wall Cat, a.k.a. Heng Heng)
Skin, metal, silk, and glass over closed-cell foam. Dentures from nobody you know.
The soft velvet flocking went really well with the sutured skin, I thought. I had to crack the lower jaw to get it to fit into a cat-sized mouth....


Beautifully preserved little beasties living suspended in jars. Each is sealed with black wax (partly beeswax, mmmmm) and embossed with an eye of Horus traced with gold powder...what’s not to like? The liquid they are suspended in is called Carosafe and is a non-smelly version of formaldehyde without all the toxic properties. Please refrain from cracking one open and taking a swig, however. If you have some sort of problem with putting innocent little creatures into jars forever, feel free to email me your oh-so-original and righteous wee rants, and I’ll tell you where I got them. So there.

Bats are now back in stock, thank god, so order away....



Bat: $42 includes delivery anywhere in the US. Very delicate webbed wings and darling crumpled faces. You would punch a nun to get them! You’d suck the blood out of a wounded puppy! (apologies to J)

Mouse: $22 includes delivery anywhere in the US. Most are tinted blush, naturally. Why ask why? Little perfect eyes and teeth and ears, and tiny clawed feet. So cute! So dead!

NEWS : "The 40-year-old Mr. Everett was raised in McLean, Va., with his sister Elizabeth, mother Nancy and father Hugh Everett III, a quantum physicist who in 1957 proposed a formal theory of parallel universes known as 'The Many-Worlds Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics.' 'Everett's work has boggled minds inside and outside physics for more than four decades,' reported Scientific American in last month's issue. Mr. Everett said his brilliant father wasn't communicative at home. When I asked him what the conversation was like around the breakfast table, he replied, 'There wasn't any.' 'Physicists and geniuses don't always make great family men. I lived with him for 18 years and I learned more about him from the Internet.' Mr. Everett's family was a heartrending source of inspiration for his most notable work, the 1998 album 'Electro-Shock Blues' (DreamWorks), written after his sister committed suicide and h...

Digital Cam media safe to fly with

Technocrat.net : "Recent tests found no evidence of X-ray scanner damage to digital camera media cards or to the images they hold. The tests of scanner models currently in use in the U.S. transportation industry were jointly conducted by the International Imaging Industry Association (I3A), the leading global association for the imaging industry; SanDisk Corporation, a manufacturer of digital media cards; and the U.S. Transportation Security Administration (TSA). These findings mean that digital cameras and their image storage media can travel safely in either checked or carry-on bags, which will be reassuring to holiday travelers. And though they were not explicitly tested, it is likely that images on camera-phones will be safe in either situation as well. More care is needed for cameras with film, however, as the X-ray scanners for both checked and carry-on luggage can fog both developed and undeveloped film."

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.'"
