Oct 5 2008Artists Make (Functional) Giant Trippy iPod

Russian artists Aristarkh Chernyshev and Alexei Shulgin made this giant trippy iPod. It's fully functional, including the giant earbuds. Why? you ask, why not? the artists reply. Ha, right, because it's freaking stupid. Jesus, it hurts to look at.
This is your iPod on drugs, any questions? [tuaw]
Thanks to Sev, who used to own a giant Walkman.

At first, I thought it was photoshopped. Then I realized I was on weed.

someone should tell the artist that this ipod model is obsolete. Hed probly then hang himself with the oversized earbud cable.

@3, you've obviously never smoked weed before because weed wouldn't make an ipod look like that.
Now shrooms on the other hand...

Fake!
That's completely photoshopped. You can tell because the shadows are all wrong. Its a nice touch putting a picture from Never Back Down on the iPod though!

@11, which one of those old dudes is you? I'd guess the one with the dick in his mouth.

@ 3. Same thing happened to me just now. and I've seen this post before.
@7. You obviously never have either. He wasn't tripping, he just didn't realize what he saw yet.
