You can’t always trust the internet to be accurate, but at least you can count on it to never run out of nonsense.
And no page embraces that better than Welcome JPEG on Instagram. With no rhyme, no reason, and barely any context, it delivers a steady stream of unhinged, absurd images. If that’s exactly what you need today, stick around—we’ve rounded up some of their best. Scroll down and enjoy.

Artist Sven Sachsalber Has Actually Looked For And Found A Single Needle Hidden In A Haystack As Part Of A Performance Art Piece
Done by hand, it took 18 hours to complete this task at the Palais de Tokyo in Paris. (2014)
Sachsalber gave himself 24 hours to find the needle by hand. His method was pretty simple: take a handful of hay, not too large, fold it a couple times and bend it, and, theoretically, if the needle was in that handful, he’d feel it. After about 18 hours, he emerged from his position next to the haystack, whooping, as he brandished the needle.

“Tree, Line” Photo Series By Zander Olsen (2004-Ongoing)
Inspired by the intersection of nature and human intervention in the landscape, Olsen’s photographs capture trees wrapped in white/colorful material, aligning them with the horizon line.
The series prompts viewers to contemplate the relationship between nature and human structures, questioning the boundaries and interactions between the two.
I love thought-provoking works, but creators who focus completely on the "provoking" part and forget the thought and artistry which combine to actually make things thought-provoking annoy me. However, anyone who actually supports this kind of stuff and spends $$$ for things like a banana duct taped to a wall infuriate me. There are so many amazing artists who create truly great and timeless works of art, buy that stuff, not snapshots of toilet-papered trees.

In 1992, Artist Paul Sermon Created A Digital Portal Between Two Separate Beds In Different Locations Using 2 Way Projections For His Artwork “Telematic Dreaming”
Viewers would lay on these beds and a livestream of them was projected onto the opposing bed in the other location.
They could interact with each other across this live-streamed portal as newly disembodied, projected forms; hence the title “telematic dreaming”. This process was meant to call into question the nature of digital relationships by blurring the line between presence and absence.

How Dieter Rams Influenced Apple Products Forever
Dieter Rams, a visionary German industrial designer who made several iconic products for Braun, left an indelible mark on Apple’s design ethos, a legacy that is both profound and subtle. Known for his “less, but better” philosophy, Rams championed the idea that good design is as little design as possible, focusing on the essentials to create products that are straightforward and pure.
With Jony Ive leading Apple’s design department, he made sure to borrow design elements from Dieter Rams’ Braun designs, one of his biggest design inspirations. You can clearly see how Apple ingrained Rams’ Ten Principles for Good Design into its own ethos:
1. Good design is innovative
2. Good design makes a product useful
3. Good design is aesthetic
4. Good design makes a product understandable
5. Good design is unobtrusive
6. Good design is honest
7. Good design is long-lasting
8. Good design is thorough down to the last detail
9. Good design is environmentally-friendly
10. Good design is as little design as possible
The Aquamen Are Part Of The French Theater Group “Machtiern”
They are known for wandering around with fish bowls on their heads containing live fish.
The work was meant as a commentary on our ability to communicate with those around us when faced with rapidly growing social and political barriers.
Members from the theater group have stated that the performance is “not for the faint of heart” adding that it took years to perfect the craft and hone in on the design for the helmets, each of which are custom designed to fit the wearer to ensure leaks do not occur.

Mike Tyson Getting His Face Tattoo In 2003
Originally, he had a different idea of what he wanted to get tatted. In an interview, Tyson revealed that he wanted his face to be covered in heart tattoos because he thought it was cool and that he’d then be recognised as ‘The Man of Hearts’. The tattoo artist, Victor Whitmill, advised Tyson against this, and instead created him the now iconic tribal design.
I think the hearts would have been great. Definitely would have aged better as it is something very unique.
