Sleevefacing

Anniversary GiftI know there’s all kinds of new things out there that I’ve never heard of. Having just been the recipient of a meaningful (to me) piece of vinyl — Carl Douglas‘ 1974 release of Kung Fu Fighting and Other Great Love Songs — I was intrigued by a site that I stumbled upon through a listing showing some neat trick photography with books and magazines over at Toxel. The stumbled-upon site is called Sleeveface.

Essentially, this is a site dedicated to taking a phonograph album cover and manually replacing your face or body part with the stuff from the cover. It’s a hoot. So much of a hoot that the site author has now released a book of sleevefaces. There’s even an entertaining training video, showing how to sleeveface.

I am intrigued, and that’s usually bad….. 🙂
