Milk Carton Castle: World’s Largest Recycled Sculpture!
Once again, we are going to touch on the subject of being environmentally aware and thinking about what we are doing and how. For example, do you ever think about where all your trash is going once it's down inside that garbage can outside your house? Or, do you even give a second thought to what ...

Want To Know What Super Mario Looks Like On The Inside?
We are among the millions of people that kept playing Super Mario Bros. even though we had finished it over and over. There was just something about that game that made us all caught up in it. It could possibly be the adventure and rescuing a princess that kept us so mesmerized. Did you ever real ...
How To: Make Hand Puppets!
Do you remember Sesame Street or The Muppet Show? I do. I grew up watching those shows. I always thought that the puppets were really alive. I guess the puppeteers on those shows were so good at what they did that a child could believe the puppets were living and breathing.
A hand puppet is a ...
What Do You Do With 340 Bikes About To Be Recycled?
As we have written before, recycling is one of the world's most important tasks, and we're continuously getting better at it. However, what about when it comes to large quantities of things?

Toilet Waterfall: A Symbolic Installation Of Wasted Water
By now, it's a known fact that some parts of the world are in dire need of drinkable water. So much so that even a $1 investment from each of us could make a huge difference. No donation is too small to make a change, but it has to be given to the right organization. In the top ten industrial co ...
Recycle Art: The Best Use Of Old Books To Date!
I consider myself to be an average book reader, but I can't say that I have truck loads of them sitting around on my book shelves. I would much rather read what's online instead of disconnecting myself from the bit world. With the world changing its focus to a more PDF driven society, it is gettin ...
Nerdified: Movie & Game Typography Posters For Geeks!
Where does creativity stop? Is there a limit to how creative we can get and still understand what it is we're doing or seeing? According to studies, we are only using 10% of our brain capacity, so I guess we're just in the beginning of the creative process. However, since being a geek is getting ...
Piperoid Paper Pipe Robots: Fun with Paper Tubes!

Spectacular Tattoo Designs: Would You Get One?
I am amazed at people who get tattoos. I believe those people are very courageous and really love self-expression. I do not have a tattoo, and to be quite honest, I am afraid to get one. I witnessed a friend get a tattoo once, and he said it was very painful, but he still went ahead with it. I ...
Paintings: The Caricature Side Of Hollywood Stars!
I have seen so many caricatures since starting Bit Rebels back in June, 2009. Some are purely done on paper while others were completely sketched out on an iPad or iPhone. You can't mistake talent when you see stuff like this, especially when you find out it was all done by hand. I mean, we're al ...
Make Time For Breakfast: Photography Inspiration
Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day. Most people I know either skip breakfast or eat it on the go. However, I enjoy my hot tea and toast or fresh fruit (with a little Twitter on the side) almost every day.
I've written about my favorite meal before on Bit Rebels. I remember the day I feat ...
A Glimpse Into The Creative World of Thomas Marzano
When I meet someone that enjoys music and design as much as I do, I am usually intrigued with what goes into their minds. What creative process do they follow? What inspires them? What motivates them to excel in their chosen field? “Making the simple complicated is commonplace; making the compli ...
