iPod gets exploded, trapped in resin

Sure, your iPod is portable, lightweight, and easy to use -- but it's not exactly special is it? Perhaps you should be thieving a page from a young man named Billy Chasen, who has decided to rip apart his 4G player and encase it in a brick of translucent resin. Here's the best part: it still works. By also including the dock internals in the project, he's able to charge and control the exploded device. Practical? Not really, but that's art for you. Damien Hirst would be proud... or is suing.

[Thanks, Sam]

Anything encased in resin is a win for me. I get a boner over this despite the fact that it's an iPod.

Hmmm this must be the "Han Solo" Special Edition iPod - the obligatory U2 follow-up!

If only the ipod had A2DP/AVRCP, then you wouldn't have to use the dock connector to use it (except to charge it).

My 3G is still alive and well and my brother has a 1g that is functional but not pretty.
