Case Mod - The Ultimate List
Case Mod - The Ultimate List, as so lovingly compiled by Neatorama, by means of its very length and variety adds significant legitimacy to what is essentially the Computer Age equivalent of junk art/play.According to Wikipedia: "Case modding or Case modification is the modification of a computer chassis (often just referred to as the case). Modifying a computer in any non-standard way is considered a case mod. Many people, particularly hardware enthusiasts, use case mods to illustrate a computer's power, and for aesthetic purpose."
According to Bernie, case modding is a modern example of the transformational power of play. Taking something ready-made and purpose-driven, and just thinking about how you could make it into something that is uniquely yours is already a semi-revolutionary act. Doing it seriously, beautifully, creatively, playfully - you redefine the world.
