Inbox blocked by spam and don't know what to do with them? How about something creative like this:
"Alex Dragulescu's "Spam Architecture" project designs virtual houses by mapping the content of incoming spam to structural and decorative elements: "he images from the Spam Architecture series are generated by a computer program that accepts as input, junk email. Various patterns, keywords and rhythms found in the text are translated into three-dimensional modeling gestures." "

Maybe I am missing something here, but I think using a programme to translate Spam into spacial designs is a little bizarre. I know the inventors are probably trying to show that Spam, the epitome of uselessness, can be used in some shape or form - literally - but it seems quite random as any other email or written text for that matter would achieve the same results.

I love this project. I am using one picture of the series as a wallpaper!
A similar thread was posted on Current some time ago.

He should make some of these into real models. Now that would be impressive. I like it though, quite a funky little idea.
