 Cast a Giant Shadow
Ancient stories tell of the Grecian army that lined up its troops before dawn, and with the sunrise casting each soldier's long shadow down in the valley below, made the opposing force think they where up against a race of giant warriors.
Perhaps even before that, when cavemen cast hand puppet shadows on cave walls by firelight, man has always been fascinated by the projected image.
Today's projectors are a far cry from those times and offer something for almost any application or budget.

 tien mao's little read book...: Public Works Box Set from DJ Shadow / Obey Giant
I recently ordered the limited edition Public Works box set from DJ Shadow / Obey Giant.
It's pretty pricey at $169.99, but it comes with five shirts designed by Shepard Fairey, a full length mix CD from Shadow, a book of Fairey's work, and a bunch of stickers and pins.
So maybe with all that stuff $170 seems kind of reasonable, especially when you consider the "Grim Reaper World Tour" shirt (featuring George Bush as the Grim Reaper) is limited to a run of 450.
