Just look at this banana sculpture.

Just look at it.

fruit - Matt James Stone (Thanks, Marie!)

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

I have looked at the banana. It is good. It is a good banana.

That’s uglier than a stomped on possum.

That’s a bunch of transporter accident victims right there.

We all live in a banana sculpture, a banana sculpture, a banana sculpture.

  As Boing Boing readers, shouldn’t that be “banana subculture”?

Looks like the result of a Miro/Calder/Picasso menage-a-trois during a meth bender.

Banana! You’ve been drinking and fighting again, haven’t you?!?

Sure, but which end goes in my butt?

Compost? Fruit fly bait? Puzzlement here, and I’ve studied art.

  You don’t need to get it. You just need to look at it.

It’s the thing from The Thing trying to imitate a banana. Kill it with fire!

Thanks a lot. Now I can’t unsee it. Maybe it will just rot before doing much more harm.

It’d be a cool 3d print.

Can’t think of Chris Foss banana pun I’m afraid.

  Neither can I! But that is EXACTLY what it looks like. Maybe bananas will soon be replacing Lego as the sci-fi sculpture medium de jour?
- Dave X
  
  I was also thinking of that same spaceship! Awesome that someone else saw it too.

I doubt cory will be looking these comments.

But why hasn’t the most awesome BANANA place on the planet in Austriala been posted? (or has it?)….

The BIG BANANA…
http://www.bigbanana.com/

Rides and atrractions and a Mutimedia attraction about the “WORLD OF BANANAS”. Automatic doors leads you into the space of the worlds of the Bananas…it’s PURE MAGIC.

http://www.bigbanana.com/worldofbananas.html

JUST LOOK AT IT…Disney like “Holograms” Theater for the world of Bananas…game rooms. Rides and banana themed zip lines..playgrounds etc. Amazing. You may have to drill deep into the site to get the full Banana goodness. They seemed to make it not just a road side attraction..but a Banana themed family fun place.
