Responding to some flickr and BoingBoing posts I did last week about a wacky car I saw covered with a mosaic of computer keys, flickr user jennybra says:
This is my car. For anyone wondering, it’s a 1993 Subaru Impreza covered with around 100lbs of colored keys designed for old Telex (teletype) machines.
The keys were attached with silicon caulk over a period of 4 years, off and on (mainly off). Later, we had enough left over to do the much-improved D’Oh Mobile [ed note: the Homer Simpson car] that belongs to a friend of mine. That one sports several mosaic designs laid out thru Tile Creator software.
You can see other artcars at www.artcars.com.
Feel free to e-mail me with other questions or if you have a computer key car idea (and available car)— we have lots of pink and white keys left.
