Re-purposed Telephone Booths

Seems like everyday I think nostalgically about how our creature comforts are going by the wayside. For example, I hate seeing real paper... hold in your hands, full sensory experience items, like newspapers, books and magazines being threatened by their cost effective digital counterparts. The wheels of technology are spinning ever faster to the point that the landscape is blurry... so fast that my imagination can't keep up.

Here's a tribute to re-purposing that which has served us well and good. A little ingenuity gives telephone booths a second life...

An aquarium...



An art gallery...


A home...




A library with an ever-changing selection...

A storage facility...

A pub entrance...

A shower...



And lastly... These playful bumble bees set in a public phone casing symbolize the irony behind the question, "Where have so many of the bees gone?" and the theory that mass congestion of cell phone signals have been misguiding their normal patterns of migration.
