Wayne Martin Bleger makes pinhole cameras using a variety of materials including precious stones, metals, human organs, and bone. This piece, entitled Third Eye, features many of these materials, all constructed around the 150 year-old skull of a 13 year-old girl.

    Dare I ask where someone gets the skull of a 13-year old girl to make into a pinhole camera?

  2. Um, I wouldn't know. Seriously. I mean, why are you asking me? I have no idea, actually. No idea at all, as a matter of fact. Wait -- why are you looking at me like that? I said I didn't know! Honestly!

    Why, no big deal! Wipe that worried look off your face! If you want to get a human skull, just go buy one, at Skulls Unlimited! From $299 and up...mutated craniums are extra, however.

    Really: www.skullsunlimited.com
