It’s odd what you find on the InterWeb – especially since the juggernaut “Web 2.0 mashup” (whatever that is) hit us, we’ve been inundated with images and vids of anything and EVERYTHING.

On the “kewl” front, check out these examples of Mobile Phone Art – dialaphone has the full list of 12 pieces, but I’m only listing a couple below to whet your appetite. For the full selection go here.

7. New Work by Rob Pettit.

Mobile Phone Art by Rob Pettit

This artist is one of the most well-known cell phone sculptural artists in history. He has created numerous spiral sculptures using recycled mobile phones and continues to elaborate on his original designs with new works of art.

8. Sand Art.

Some of the most amazing art in the world are the sculptures and castles made of sand that are constructed so carefully but last for such a short period of time. This one is of the infamous iPhone. This one was created last summer by an innovative artist on the beach of North Carolina.

I highly recommend checking out both the dialaphone website, and Rob Pettit’s site!

About The Author

Ben Robinson

Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas! He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
