Book Guns by Robert The

For those, who think that books are good for reading only, here is an example of bit of different usage. American artist and mathematician called Robert The, created a special collection of guns, mastered from books.

If you want to try it at home, I would recommend to use clean books, which can be later used for making your notes rather than printed, which can lost its readability.

“Obsession with the semiotic erosion of meaning and reality led me to create objects that evangelize their own relevance by a direct fusion of word and form. Books (many culled from dumpsters and thrift store bins) are lovingly vandalized back to life so they can assert themselves against the culture which turned them into debris.” Robert The 1995
