Fish tank in a phone both is a great way to recontextualize obsolescence
fishphone.jpgI'll admit it: I just can't get enough of ridiculous fish tanks. There's just something about putting water and a bunch of fish where neither of those things were ever supposed to go that just fills my heart with glee.

That's why it's really no surprise that I'm smitten by this telephone booth fish tank. It's on a street corner in Lyon, France, and I'm assuming you can't actually make any calls from it. But that's no matter, with cell phones now near-ubiquitous, pay phones aren't really necessary anymore. Why not convert old phone booths into awesome aquariums. I can think of no logistical reasons why not!

Only one logical reason I can think of not to do it,

Where will Clark Kent do the whole presto-chango thing?

Actually not a bad idea, but not for the streets, to many kids love to break things.

Still for a serious aquarium nut
