Until ID'ers get their own hack blog, this'll have to do

By Rain Noe - December 29, 2010

It's not quite FailBlog, but neither is it a site documenting triumphs of the human spirit. No, the Russian site Misuse.su is something in between, collecting shots of various objects that have creatively been hacked into something else with results of varying aesthetic value. You may have to wade a bit, but more than a few of these remind me of what you'd see on people's personal studio desks back at ID school.

And yes, that's a guy using a laptop as a compass.

Love it. Design is all about creativity and why not start at our own desk. I think I'll make some of those little darts...

Is also an entertaining place to see some creative re-purposing of household objects...

I’m a lapsed industrial designer. I was born in NYC and figured I’d die there, but a few years ago I abandoned New York to live on a farm in the countryside with my wife. We have six dogs.
