Mike Libby's InsectLab
Mike Libby found a dead beetle one day, and thought it looked like a mechanical device. So, he took the next logical step and dissected the beetle and replaced its parts with miscellaneous gears and electronic parts. The result is InsectLab, his collection of "cybernetic" bugs in glass display cases, ready to be stared at for hours.
They're beautiful, and they'd almost seem quaint and old fashioned if there wasn't something so scary about them. I wonder if this fits in with the concept of the Uncanny Valley?
